It is very probable that at the next meeting
of the Grounds and Buildings Committee the
West-End market will be formally turned over
to the city by the contractors.
1t was to have been finished by May list. but
the men who are doing the work asked for an
extension OF time in which 10 complete their
labors, and fifteen days were allowed them
This time expired on Friday. but as vet the
contractors have not come forward and pre-
scented the keys.
The matter was to have been brought be-
fore the Buildings Committee last evening
but that committee could not get a quorum
together hence no action was taken.
The market is an imposing structure and
adds greatly 10 the beauty Of its vicinity. 1t
will also be a great convenience 10 persons in
that section. and the Council by building it
filled a want long felt.
The Council viii have 10 take action as to
receiving the market before it can be occu-
pied. although if it is recommended by the
Building Committee there will be no trouble
in regard to the matter.

The Schubert Ladies' Quartette, Of Boston
gave "a very attractive programme at the

fresh and well balanced, blend nicely and the
quartettes we're beautifully rendered Miss
lIaude Nichols, the first soprano, has clear,
high-tone voice, which she uses with
good taste, her solo, waltz song
by Giorza. showing her ability TO execute
forid passages with ease and effect Miss
Whitcombe has q phenomenally deep con
tralto, which forms "a superb foundation for
the quartette Her rendering of the familiar
Maid Of the Mill" in the same key as that
used by a tenor voice, was the feature
of the evening. Miss Worster, the
second soprano played the accompaniment
for the solos in very tasty manner and rem
dered pianO-forte selection with brilliancy.
Miss Roberts. the first alto. sang ballad very
nicely, showing a sweet cOntraltO, not very
strong. but of good quality and interesting to
listen TO. The musicale as a whole was very
attractive one. The audience was rather
larger than usual. encores were frequent and
all seemed greatly pleased with the excellent
singing of the Quartette.

One of the Oldest Teachers in Kentucky
Passes Quietly Away.


Mrs. Salie Mason Maury, probably one of
the Oldest teachers in Louisville, says the
Courier-Journal Of that city and one Of the
best known in the State died at the home of
her son. Mason Maury on Floyd street. yes
terday at 2:30 o'clock. She was slNty-Ilne
years Of age and had lived IN this city for
fifty-three wears. Her maiden name was
Salie Mason. and she was born IN Medheld,
Mass. in ls22 The family removed TO LOUIS

married Mr. Matthew W. Nlaury OF Virginia.

the public schools of Louisiana. winch lasted
until two years ago. She had been tor many

Two years ago Mrs Maury gave mp teaching,
and had made her home with her son up 10
the time OF her death About two months
ago she was attacked with q slight stroke or
paralysis. and had been falling eyersnce her
death resulted from tins cause.
Mrs. Maury was remarkable woman IN
many respects. At the time OF her husband

Lett by him for the education Of her children
and adopted teaching as q means OF liyell-
hood. leaving each childs portion intact until
il had attained It's majority As a teacher
she was known throughout the city,
and had. in all probability. more boys,
whom she preferred 10 teach, than any other
teacher in the city schools. She was always
much esteemed by her pupils, and had great
success in teaching them. DIR. Lowell Mason,
the well-known composer Of Boston, was an
uncle and Mr. y. n. Mason. of the organ and

Mr. Carmichael preached on the symbolic

his text Revelations i. l.
He said that all Masons protesting Christi
anlty were interested IN st. John the Eyangel-
lst, one OF their eminent patrons And the
knights 1emplars could find their charter in
the writings of st. John. The preacher was
satisfied that there was key 10 the Book Of
Revelations to be used by the faithful or those
fully initiated into the mysteries of the
Church. and that that key was lost
He explained that the necessity for signs
and tokens and other secrets in the early
Church was TO prevent needless persecution

A Married Woman,s VIII.

If woman makes a will before
marriage the fact of her marriage
makes the will worthless. This is
the cOmmon-law rule, and still pre-
walls in the large majority of
the States. In Vermont and per-
haps some other marriages does
not necessarily invalidate a wom-
ans will, but unless one is certain
of the point in her own State she
should attend to the matter by
making a new Will Immediately
after marriage, and, if possible,
secure her husbands consent to it
written and signed on the docu-
ment itself. This consent is not
everywhere necessary, but is al
ways wise. In Massachusetts it is
absolutely necessary if by its
terms the will cuts off any
claim which our laws give
to a widower on the estate
of his wife. A mans will, at com
mon law and in the majority of
States now, is not invalidated by
his subsequent marriage alone, but
if child is born the concurrence
of the two events makes her will
also worthless, and he must write
