The Audience at the Carnival of Natiors'
Vote with the Young People
The Carnival of Nations" at the NJ,
sonic temple Saturday, was very TAX
ing affair. Both afternoon and evening
the hall was we'll filled and the efforts OF
the amateurs were pleasing to high de
gree. The character of the entertain.
ment was very unique. representatives
OF all nations in appropriate costume,
giving musical selections. A laree e mum
Der of the musical young people of Boul
der were included and the affair was an
! artistic musical success. The ladies of
the Congregational church, under whose
auspices it was given. realized a very
handsome profit from the venture.
The close of the regular entertainment
IN the evening was marked by an Incl
dent not mentioned in the program, and
which furnished a lively sensation for
the spectators. AS soon as the last mum.
Der was given, the pastor of the church.
Mr.. Walker, arose and, stating that he
had heard that it was the intention of
the young people to hold dance during
the remainder of the evening, requested
them to abandon the plan The request
did not meet with very much sympathy
and on behalf of the young people,
many of whom were university and pre-.
paratory students. DR.. Callahan replied
that as many had attended under the
impression that dance would be held,
he asked the pastor t. withdraw his re-
quest and allow 1t to proceed. An argu.
nent followed in which much feeling
vas shown and which was finally term:
lated by MIR. Berlin, who submitted the
question to the audience for vote. The |
'oung people were sustained by large {
majority and the dance went on. It is t
uite usual for all entertainments given c

aratory students. to be followed by a c
hort dance. and the affair was in nc d

| The university will get but SIG, 900 as

1899 and 1900. says the Denver Post
The sum of $4,000 was asked.
The joint legislative finance and ap.
preparations committee, net yesterday

it could possibly allow the institution at
Boulder, and 1t may be necessary to cut
this down considerably. Those who at
tended the meeting were Senators Taylor,
Earhart, Seldomrldge. Evans, Buckley,
Ammons, Amer and Roe, Speaker Smith
ofthe house, and Representatives Dfumm,
Patterson, Uglow and Kamm.
President Baker of the university, and
Mr. Drumm, who is from Boulder, made
an earnest plea for increased appropri.

ments costing in all at least $4,000 were
absolutely necessary, they argued. 1t
was explained that only $4,000 per year
was derived from the special tax levy of
one.flfth mill, so the institution would
have TO depend on a special appropria.
ion OF $4,000 year or s84 900 for the

If maintenance within the income. The
committee figured out dozen different
chemes to give the university at least
10000, but none of them proved to be
Practicable and they were all abandoned.
was finally agreed that the only course
osslble would be to appropriate sIIo,.
90. $4,000 for maintenance, and the
alance for improvements. Some plan
lay be devised whereby the proposed

onsolidated and built for the remaining
$4,000, but it is extremely doubtful If It

nance reflected Yesterday.

Messrs. Miller and Paull's Wellsburg-
Bethany Electric Railway ordi-
nance rejected Yesterday.
The Brooke county court, at its spe-
clal session yesterday. refused to grant
the electric railway franchise asked for
by Messrs. j. A. Miller and Alfred
PAUL, Of Wheeling. over the wellsburg
& Bethany turnpike. on the terms of
the ordinance submitted by their attor-
ney. ]. c. Palmer.
The court asked, among other condl-
tions, that the grantees take the out
side. or creek side of the road, widen
the road at the "Narrows," strengthen
and keep in repair all bridges used by
them, and give bond for the completion
and operation Of the railway. This
Col. Miller would not agree to do, and
so It now stands.
The court did. however. grant the
right of way over the county roads
from wellsburg through Midway and
Lazearville, and the question now IS
whether the company will build and
operate an electric railway between
Wellsburg and Lazearville without any
assurance OF being able to extend its
line further in any direction.
Messrs. Miller and PAUL have until
August II to file their acceptance OF the
clty's ordinance and also the county
ordinance granting the fight Of way to
LazearVllle.
