OUR LOCAL AFFAIRS.
NEW PUBLIC SCH0OLRO0KS.

Accommodations scourrs 20 Meet rhs PRESENT
Demand Yet More Rooms Seeeed-Esuea-
nas for All.
The City School Board have rented
room in the neighborhood Of Bellevue
School. and will open school there as
soon as the room can be fitted up.
This will accommodate 100 pupils. and
will to this extent relieve the pressure
on Bellevue. The Board also rented
large room on Cary street near Laurel.
to relieve the pressure on Madison
School to the extent OF 100 scholars.
These two new schools, in addition to
the one at Springfield Temperance Hall.
on Church Hill, will accommodate 300
white pupils.
For the applicants for admission into
the regular colored schools the Board
have made arrangements for two rooms
in the Moore-Street Industrial build
ing which will accommodate 200 pu-
pills. The basement Of the colored Bap-
tist church on Navy Hill has been rent
ed, and school that will accommodate
100 pupils will be opened there at once.
A room in the ColOred Orphan Asylum
near Baker SCHOOL, has also been rent
ed. and school will be opened there TO
accommodate 100 Of the applicants who
could not get in Bal.er School.
These new schools will accommodate
900 white scholars and 400 colOred.
The Board will endeayOr and will un-
doubtedly be able TO secure more rooms,
and will as soon as they can open new
schools TO accommodate the scholars
who have not been able TO gain admis-
sion into the regularly-established
schools. Teachers for these new
schools will be assigned from the regu-
lar substitutes.
The site for the new Bethel building
is at the corner Of Nineteenth and Mar
shall streets. on what is known as the
Poindexter property. The site for the
school building to relieve the pressure
on Madison and Elba Schools is on
Main street near Lombardy. The site
for the colored school building is on
Sheep Hill. in the extreme northern
part Of the city. 1t is estimated that
the proposed new buildings will ac-
commodate seventeen or eighteen hun
dred pupils.
II is TO be hoped that ten days more
Will not elapse before the announce
ment can be made that all the children
Of Richmond asking admission TO the
public schools are provided for There
are plenty Of rooms in Richmond TO be
had until the new school-houses are
finished. True. the Board will not
always be able to get them in Just the
enact neighborhood they would wish.
but it is better that the children should
have TO walk considerable distances
than he denied the advantages Of school
ing.
The public and the City Council will
sustain the Board in their energetic ef-
forts in this direction. The Board are
resolved that the hundreds Of children
who are not entered in the public
schools, and whose parents wish them
10 attend. shall soon be provided for
They Will have good teachers placed
over them, and will suffer nothing in
that respect, though they may have to
occupy temporary quarters for some
months.

The Fiery Monster of the Heavens.

A Pittsburgh special says The
serolite. or meteoric stone. which
caused the loud detonation heard
throughout the greater part Of Wash
ington and Allegheny counties on Sat-
urday, fell upon the farm Of Mr.. Buck
land. in Jefferson township, Washing
ton county. near the West Virginia
fine. instead Of in Cecil township, as
reported. Ellis Jones, mail-carrier,
witnessed the fiery ball in its flight
through the heavens. He said he never
beheld a more awful or impressive
scene. His horse suddenly stopped.
and he heard a noise as If the
winds were rushing onward with great
violence. Looking up, he saw moving
high above him huge mass. which be
described as resembling a great coal Of
fire as large as the largest barn he ever
saw. There appeared to be attached
10 it an immense flame Of a deep red
color. which tapered off into darker
tail. Instantly the noise which accom-
panied il ceased; the fre-like appear
ance, the flame, and me tail disappear
ed. and in their stead the stone assumed
q whitish hue. which it retained until it
passed out Of sight. Jones's horse was
So frightened that it took several min
utes Of vigorous application Of the whip
before the animal could be persuaded
10 move.
When the stone fell it broke into
three pieces. but did not penetrate the
earth to such a great depth as already
stated. as two thirds Of II remained
above ground. 1t is grayish in color.
with q succession Of red streaks is ir-
regular IN form and at least fifty feet in
diameter. CONSERVATION seized upon
the people who bebeld The meteor in
its fight, ard many Of them are filled
with a superstitious dread, believing
that the spirit which causes pestilence
and famine pervaded the fiery visitor.
A great number Of people have gone to
see the wonder. Up to this time the
ielic-hunters have done remarkably
well in carrying away souvenirs.

One OF the boldest thefts Of its kind
ever attempted was perpetratcd few
days since in the eastern portion Of this

Arthur NJ. Dyer. former employee
Of Mr.. William J. Raper, bat who had
been discharged several months since,
selected twenty-one Of the finest beef
cattle from where they were grazing on
what is known as the Trigg farm, which
belongs to Mr.. Raper, but is some
considerable distance from his DWELL
ing. H@ving carefully made his selec-
ton, he drove the cattle to Wythe-
vile for the purpose of shipping them
to market. stopping on the way, how
ever, for some time at Mrs. Wlburn's
place for the purpose Of feeding and
resting the herd. When he arrived at
Wytheville be loaded the cattle in a
very leisurely manner in the presence
of several gentlemen who knew him,
and to whom he spoke, took a meal
at the Mountain-View Hotel, and
started for the eastern markets. SUBJ
sequent information shows that when
be arrived at Chambersburg, Pa. Dyer
disposed Of his booty at the rate of three
cents pound and skipped for parts
unknown. Mr.. Raper, as soon as he
found that the cattle were gone, which
we learn was several days afterward.
telegraphed along the line for iRforma-
tion, and started in hot pursuit. He
found his cattle in the hands Of
the purchaser in Pennsylvanis.
and has telegraphed to his over
seer. Mr.. Baker, to come on and
identify them. Dyer, we learn, is a
Scotchman by birth, who came TO this
county from Texas, where be had had
considerable experience attending cat
tie. Recently he has been engaged in
the fruit-drying business near Max
Meadows. When he left he was owing
several small bills in that nsighborhood
for board. washing. &C. all Of these he
paid on the sale of the cattle. No clew
has as yet been discovered as TO his
whereabouts.

The Winchester Times says: A few
days ago there was discovered on the
farm Of Captain William II. Myers,
near Winchester. by one Of his sons. a
lake which. the Captain tells US, has
enough water in it, with the proper
pumping facilities, TO supply as many
inhabitants as there are in Frederick
county. His son was convinced that
there was water underneath the bed Of
the spring, which had. to all appear
snces. gone dry; so he went upon a
tour Of discovery. being tired Of driving
his stock to a neighboring farm. He
dug down about two feet and found
water. lie then took a fishing-pOle
some twelve to fifteen feet long and ran
it down between the rocks without find
ing the bottom. He then sunk a bar
rel and placed pump in it, and cool
water in abundance has been had ever
since. The water runs south.

Eatn Wanted.

The October sun " due yesterday
was slightly obscured by clouds, which
for a time promised rain. but yielded
none. The rainfall here and up the
country has been very light for a month
or more. The river is low and very
clear. The pumping facilities Of the
city are now so ample that drought Of
this character does not eject US in this
respect. but its effect is seen in dirty
streets and dusty foliage. 4 good
sweeping rain just at this time would
greatly cleanse and freshen the city.
The mills on both sides Of the river are
suffering in their operations somewhat
from the low water, and their owners,
in common with people generally, are
hoping for q good rainfall soon.
