Baltimore Girls TO Have Privacy in tn Of
Gymnasium.
Baltimore, Md, March 30.-The board
of control of the women's college has
granted the petition of the girls that
men be excluded from their gymnasium
on exhibitions. Girls who were opposed
to the prohibition made evident their
grief by prominently displaying Grape. A
Goucher was also covered with mourn
ing.
The gymnasium suit has for its prin-
cipal feature a wide pair of Turkish
trousers reaching below the knee. Ever
since the first exhibition was given it
seemed that the proportion of men at
tracted grew larger each time and the
average age grew less.

Smiths labor lien law, which was
under consideration in the House of
Delegates nearly the entire day, and
was pending when the House adj
Ijourned, was the occasion of quite
an oratoricaI battle. Mr.. Smith,
tho author and champion of the bill
opened the debate with strong
plea in its support aud made some
home thrusts which put the oppo-
sition on their mettle and brought
them forward to oppose it. Judge
Fleming was the first to attack the
bill, and in speech OF half hour,
pointed out its weak points. Mr..
Martin came to Smith rescue, and
harranged the House in its support.
Mr.. Evans, of Berkeley, began to
ask Mr.. Martin some uncomfortable
questions which that gentleman
found it difficult to answer. Col.
Mcdonald, of Jefferson took the
floor and endeavored to show that
the proposed law was a dangerous
one, unfair to both mechanics and
contractors, and should not be en-
acted. He was followed by Judge
Reynolds, who deemed it a danger,
Gus law and one which, if enacted,
would result in more injury to the
laborer or mechanic than good. Mr..
Smith again got the floor and read
the riot act to the opponents of the
bill, and in the course of his argu-
meut he said he represented fifty
two labor unions in Wheeling which
demanded the passage of the bill
Although some of the ablest memb
ers who were opposed to the bill
and fought it vigorously, Mr. Smith
was sustained by the House and
won his points, one teranother, as
was shown by the votes on the sew
eral amendments which he propos
ed. The bill will come up again to-
morrow, and there is not doubt
that it will be passed by a decisive
majority.
i If the bill fixing the salary of the
State Auditor and the Secretary of
State, and providing that their fees
shall be turned into the State treas
ury over certain amount, be pass,
ed by the House of Delegates, which
is highly probable, it will have
gone as far as it will get. 1t will
not pass the Senate. If for no
other reason, the Republicans of
the Senate will vote against it be
cause they want all that comes to
these officers when their own men
are installel-iuto Office, which they
fondly hope TO see after the 4th of

DEAR GoyERNoR:-I feel deep
interest in the education and train
ing of our young girls, especially in
West Virginia, where circumstances
and surroundings would prevent
them from securing such adganta-
ges. We ought to have a State In-
stitulion where glrls could, at small
expense, be able to receive such
education and industrial training,
rs wcuM better ft them for the af
fairs Of life ard enable them to be-
come teachers, clerks, telegraph op-
orators. etc, thus making them self
supporting and of greater benefit
to the State
II the State will establish an in
s,i-ulion for the purpose named and
make an annual appropriation OF
say $4,000 or SIS. 900 for its sup
port 1 will give $4,000 and suitable
ground at some central point aces
siOle by rail, such as Davis or Elk
ms, toward The erection of suita
bic building Il you concur in
these suggestions, you are at liber-
y to submit this proposition to the
Legislature. The act could be made
conditional on my giving $50, OOC,
and suitable ground for the purpose.
Very truly yours,
II. G DAVIS.
The principles of the present as
signmentlaw should not be chang
ed. If a man is so unfortunate as
to owe more than he can pay in full,
