EXTEND COLUMBIA PARK.
Citizens Want an Entrance on the
Boulevard.


There is a movement among the resi-
dents on the west side of the city to Sc
cure the extension of the proposed c3l-
umbia Park. A petition has been in cir
culation for about two weeks asking the
Street and Water Board for the extern
sion Of the park site SO thai it will AVE
an entrance on the Boulevard. The site
at present is not the most favorable one
In the world for a park, being about TWO
hundred feet from the Boulevard on the
west. and about the same distance from
Did Bergen Road on the southeast. The
site is bounded by Bartholdi place, Nep-
tune avenue. Henry Lembeck's property
on the Old Bergen Road, and about three
hundred feet of property on the Bouie-
ward. AS it stands the only entrances
will be those on Neptune avenue and Bar
tholdi place.
What the residents want is to have the
city purchase the property adjoining the
Boulevard and then extend the site TO
that t~horoughfare.s
This they say will not cost much, hut
how much Is not stated. There is no
doubt but that the extension if made will
add greatly to the beauty of the park. II
would then be more popular with the cy-l
cling fraternity for cyclers would flock
there in great numbers, as there is not a
public park on the whole lire of the bou-
levard where wheelmen can rest. Ladies
riding dislike very much to rest IN front
Of some salobn, the only resting places at
present. and the enlargement of the Lark
and an. opening on the Boulevard would
be an Improvement which would be a
great benefit to Greenville people. The
petition. which has many signers, will be
sent TO the Street and Water Board this
week. Those. who are behind the pro-
ject hope to push it through.

BESIDES, the reproach of brutal in
capacity which involves all alike. brave
and towards, is hardly less disgraceful
than the record of panic and frenzy.
When the story of this disaster is COM
pared with those on vessels commanded
and sailed by Englishmen, one realizes
the rasniieence of A~nglo-saxon fore
thought and precaution as well as of
Anglo-Saxen presence of mind and reso-
luton.
The Frenchmen seem to have never
contemplated such a disaster. There was
no, preparation for its e~ventuality. There
was no system devised to meet it. There
was no discipline in the hour when it
was most needed.
One can readily see how quickly an
English or American captain. backed by
his officers with cooked revolvers, would
have i-nstantaneously stilled the panic and
established an orderly rescue movement,
fn which the women and children would
have had the right of way. Accounts
vary as to the time 1T took the ship to
sink But none place it at less than ten
minutes. with order and discipline, in

THAT some Of the Bourgogne's officers
and crew displayed humanity and courage
in the crisis cannot be disputed. Humanity
everywhere and in all ages has been and
is productive Of its own highest types.
But the few who remained faithful cannot
obliterate from the scutcheon of French
honor. the debasement of the multi
tudinous cowardice and brutality which
were exhibited. For one brave man there
were ten d~espicable wretehes, and the
work Of the brave only awaited to the adj
vantage of the unworthy.

MORGANTOvlN.

Morgantown, VIVA :, March 26.-
About year ago Ernest Zeising came
here and married Clara UT, daughter
Of Captain William UT Six months
after his marriage, without any appar-
ent cause, he left home without word
of warning His wife tried to get word
of him, but the only thing she heard
until now was that he had gone
through Fairmont. She applied for di-
vorce on the grounds of abandonment,
and at the last term Of court it was
granted, from bed and board. That
from the bonds Of matrimony would
have come when the two years required
by law had expired.
This morning a letter was received
by the Daily New Dominion stating
that a man claiming to have been from
Morgantown and that his name was
Zeising had gone across from Key
West to Cuba last fall and that he had
been killed in the rebel army He was
of the same description as the missing
man, and is likely the man who left
here. The widow is satisfied from the
description given that it was her hus
band. and will not prosecute the matter
any further.
The school board decided at a meet
ing last night to continue school in the
rooms that could be had until the eight
months had expired
This afternoon and tonight the Nor
gantown lodge of Elks was installed.

SOUSA'S INCOME.

Somebody has been figuring out Sou
sa's income and estimates his royalties
at nearly 5000 year. In addition
to this snug sum he divides weekly
about $500 with Charles Klien, the IL
brettist of De Wolf Hopper's opera, "El
Captain" Then there are the earn
ings Of his band. CT which ne gets the
liens share. This is pretty big
change for a man who half a dozen
wears ago was conducting the Marine
band concerts in the White House
grounds at salary of $50 week The
change came about as many incidents
in life do.
One day after he had spent some II
years in the service of the government
he asked fer an appropriation to IN
crease the efficiency of his band. AS is
customary with anything that has to
go through the political machinery CT
even Washington, considerable time
was wasted and all to no purpose.
He was refused. But some enter
prising manager offered to organize a
band for him and with it tour the
country He accepted the proposition,
and from that date he records the as
cent of his career. The monetary gain
to himself the first three months the
band was ON the road was $1,000. His
second opera THE Bride Elect" which
he sold to Klaw & Erlanger and Ben
Stevens, was produced on January ]
in Boston, where "El Captain" was
first heard. 1t is said that Sousa
comes naturally by his musical ability
His father was sSpaniard, having

New York, March 23.-Forceful, en-
ergetic Miss Marbury, whose name is
known as we'll in London and Paris ~

office

1t is hard to find a term sufficiently
elastic to describe her role. Dramatic
