VILE PAY THE TUITIoNs.

 So Voted at a District Meeting in Westvi.le
 Last Evening-To Send Graduates of
 Westville School to City High school.
 A district meeting was held in the Masonic building in Westville last even- ing to consider the question of the town paying the tuition of advanced pupils in the New Haven high schools. The meeting was largely attended, and was called to order at o'clock by Henry Bristol, the chairman, A, z. Downs, clerk of the district, being secretary. Considerable time was devoted to dis cussion of the matter pro and con. Those who spoke in favor of the district paying the tuition were Judge H. L.. Hotchkiss, T. B. Robertson, M. E. Ter Till, Charles Brown, L. W. Beecher, Amos Dickerman and M. Conway.
 Only two gentlemen spoke in opposi- sition. they being William Bishop and Harry Kennedy.
 Judge Hotchkiss said that if the vote was in favor of the district paying the tuition the extra tax rate on the district would not be more than F mill. He also said that as business proposition it should be passed; that it was the de- sire of the village to grow, and all in ducements of that sort would tend to increase the growth. Mr. Conway said that he knew Of several men in New Haven who desired to remove to West vile, but they have children in the High school and are deterred from moving by the probability that they. would have to pay S60 year tuition for their chill dren in the high school. MT. Terrill said that because many graduates of high school part their hair in the middle and loaf around street corners it was no reason why there should not be higher education, as it was in the inter- est Of the public to maintain such edu- cation. He had just said that the peo- pie oe West Haven were in sympathy with those of New Haven, and wanted the same advantages as those in New Haven, when he was interrupted by a voice: Let them go there then"
 After a lengthy discussion the follow ing act was passed by vote of 34 to 2S: Voted, That the board. of educa- tion be, and is hereby authorized to pay the tuition in the New Haven high school and Boardman Manual Training school of such graduates of the West vile school for whom application may be made, provided such scholars are residents of the district.
 The meeting was an adjourned one, a meeting having been called last We'd nesday evening, when only few were present, hence the adjournment.

LECTURES BY PROFESSOR WEIR.
A Course of Six at the Art school-Princi-
 pal Centers and Masters in Art-Proceeds

Course of Six at the Art school-Princi-
 pal Centers and Masters In Art-Proceeds
 to Go to Pay for Woolsoy Statue.
 A course of six lectures by Professor John F. Weir of the Yale Art school on Some Principal Centres and Mas ters in Art" will be given at the Yale School of Fine Arts on Thursday even- ings, beginning March 5 The program of lectures with the dates is as fol- lows:
 March 5, A Roman Itinerary in the Time of Michael Angelo; March 12, The Florentine Renaissance in Art; March 19, An Evening in Venice; March 26, Raphael and His Time; April g, Nurem- berg and Albert Durer; April 16, A. Glimpse of Holland in the Time of Rembrandt.
 The lectures will be beautifully illus trated by the stereopticon with con- tinuous series of views, specially pre- pared for this course, bringing the ob- jects and the places simultaneously be- fore the audience as they are referred to. The proceeds of the course will be applied to defraying the cost of the | Woolsey statue. Professor Weir gave the course in the Lowell Institute in Boston short time ago and was lis-S tened to by large audiences, all the seating capacity of the hall being oc- cupied at every lecture and hundreds standing throughout the lecture. The Boston Evening Transcript says edi- torially of the lectures: This course is so unlike anything that has been given there in recent years, both irl subject and treatment, that it has call- ed forth unusually interested and en- thusiastic audiences. Professor Weir deals with his subject in a quite orig inal way. The underlying thought ot the course, however, is to show the various influences which in turn had their place in moulding the art of the Renaissance. Personal reminis- cences, scattered here and there, lend charm of individuality to the whole, which quite separates it from the ordi- nary lecture"

Haesche, conductor, gave it's first concert last evening in Har- monie hall Every number on the ex- cellent program was remarkably well given, and in point of attack, express sion and execution showed careful and conscientious work on the part of both orchestra and conductor.

soED TO MB. MoRGAN.
He Secures the Franchises of the Boston
 Elevated Railroad.

Elevated Railroad
 Boston Feb. 26-It is reported on ex- cellent authority that the franchises and charter of the Boston Elevated rail- road, which is the Meigs road, has been sold to J. Pierpont Morgan, the New York financier. MT. Morgan was in Boston a short time ago, and it is said the transfer was made at that time sorts or rulnors were put in circula- tion. One of these was that the pur- chase was made by MT. Morgan in the interest of the West End company. President Little said he had only just learned of the report and that if MT. Morgan had bought the franchise he had done so on his own account. Mr. Morgan is a stockholder in the West End road, but President Little said he does not represent the road in the pur- chase.
 It is the general belief in State street that the Boston Elevated company has sold it's franchises to MT. Morgan in order to get the money to carry out it's plans and that reorganization of the company will follow, which will result i'll the building of the elevated road in Boston.
 The Meigs act gives a franchise to construct an elevated road in Boston and it's suburbs. The authorized cap- ital stock is $1O,OOO,0O0 and the com pany was required to file application within six months for a route for five miles of track. The application for a route is now before the board of al- dermen.
