As stated in the Register yesterday,
the Board of Education adopted a reso-
luton at Thursday nights meeting pro-
,, viding for the creation of a committee
to open a correspondence with Andrew
Carnegie or his representatives with a
view TO ascertaining if an appropria-
ton may be secured for a public Ii
brary building to be maintained by the
Board OF Education. 1t is generally
understood that Mr.. Carnegie proposes
to devote certain portion of his vast
wealth to fund for the erection OF
public library buildings. The step
taken by the Board of Education is
evidence of an effort to induce the
multi-mlllionaire TO expend a portion
CT the fund in this city.
President Bowers did not name the
committee until yesterday, when he ap-
pointed Judge G. L. Cranmer, who Of
fered the resolution, Charles Noble and
Col. Jere A. Miller. The committee will
open correspondence with the proper
persons as soon as practicable
In the debate over the resolution at
the Board meeting Col. Miller offered an
pondence with Mr.. Carnegie or his rep
resentative, an offer on the part of the
Board to set aside $1,000 annually for
repairs and the maintenance and con-
duct of the proposed public library, sub
sequently changed TO three cents on
the 500 valuation. Mr.. Noble
and Others favored the amend
ment because it was a definite PROPOSE
ton on the part of the Board, but it was
opposed by Judge Cranmer, DR.. Hill
dreth and Others for the reason that it
would be unWise to make an offer in
advance of information as to what Mr..
Carnegie will do in the matter. The
last named gentlemen were of the opin-
ion that the amount of money neces-
sary for the purpose will very properly
come up in the correspondence upon the
subject.
The amendment was adopted by a
close vote. The law fixes the levy
which may be assessed upon property
for this purpose, and it is estimated
that the amount reased by taxation
would approximate $500 year, which
figures also express the limit to which
the Board might go in its agreement
to maintain the library and building.
Mr.. Carnegie's munificence in the
matter OF establishing public libraries
is a subject with which the public IS
familiar. 1t is hoped that the move
ment started by the Board may accom-
plish its object.

1t is a settled fact that the Hooking
Valley railroad is TO be extended south
to some point on the river opposite
the c. & o. railroad, says the Wellston
Sentinel, and the river is to be bridged
fer connection with the cru lire The
object OF the coennction with the G. &
o. road is apparent, when the great
advantage Of northern outlet to the
great lakes is taken into consideration.
The Hooking Valley and c. & 0. COM
bined would make a short and direct
route from tide water to the great
lakes. over which an enormous traffic
would pass. Already the Hooking Val
ley has surveyed two routes. one from
Cailipolis to a poiEt near Scary, W.
Va. On Tuesday morning Chief En-
gineer Sheldon, Of the Hooking Valley,
left Wellston, accompanied by T. ].
Morgan and Dr.. Darling, 10 make tour
OF the route from Wellston and at the
same time inspect the Waterloo coal
fields which viii be the deciding feature
that viii determine the course Of the
new route, and It will be in favor Of the
Wenston and Huntington scheme. The
prospects for Wellston to be on a
great trunk line within a year are very
favorable.

able members is usually the case,
no matter how carefully the manage
ment selects the company, when
brought together there is always discov-
cred one kicker who is bent on dis
turbing harmony and objects to disci-
pine. The offensive member of Mr..
Dickson's company is the Donkey. He
is a pretty little animal and to look
at him no one would charge him with
a misehievous disposition, but to put 1t
mildly, he is a holy terror: he is de-
ceitful and wicked; he will kiss a girls
hand expecting 10 get,an apple or some
stuf1ng out of Keeper GihSon's pants.
He has demolished four dash boards
Of the cart and ruined the organ. Last
week he ate up the orchestration OF

OPERA HoUsE-To-day, matinee and
evening. Morrison Faust;" Tuesday and
day, Tine 'Highwayman."
The old stage coach used in the comic
opera, THE HigIhwayman," to be pre-
scented at the Opera House next Thurs
day night, was designed and built ex-
pressly for this production. 1t is Gu
rious old affair, and is a correct coun-
terpart of the numbering mail coaches
iii vogue in England one hundred years
ago. 1t is oddly decorated. in imita-
ton of the stage coaches used in those
times, and has the coat of arms Of
George III. deliberately painted on its
sides. 1t forms one of the most i'm
portant articles of property in the
opera, and is drawn on the scene by
four prancing steeds, to be held up by
the daring highwayman. Its top and
inside are well peopled with pretty
girls, guards and trumpeters.
A cardinal point in the coming fare
well production of Lewis Morrison s
Faust" at the Opera House this after
noon and evening, is its magnificent
scenic completeness. Never IN the his
tory Of this famous play has it been
presented here in as perfectly uniform
a manner as now. From the time the
curtain rises upon the dark sepulehral
cell Of Dr. Faustus until it falls upon
the beautiful tableaux Of the ADothe-
osis. it is series of elaborate spec
tacular transformations ranging from
ecclesiastical sclemnity TO diabolical
weirdness. Special attention has been
given 10 the electrical and mechanical
features. In the garden scene an cleo
trical display OF dazzling splendor Is
introduced pronounced to be the most
novel ever presented on the stage.
Asain in the Broken scene all the skill
end ingenuity of the stage mechanics
Art Is brought into requisition, in add
ton to many new and Startling electri-
cal effects. AS a positive guarantee
that these effects will be presented, as

Another big audience was involved
in the veritable whiriwind of fun fur
nished in Two Jolly Rovers' at the
Grand Opera House last night. The
action in this merry. musical farce,
is so rapid as to allow very few breath
ing spells. The specialties are all of
high class. and all would do credit
to the vaudeville stage. Leonard and
W@de are simply irresistible in their
funny antics and witty sayings, and
they constitute one of the best dance
teams ever seen in this city. Miss Ma
zie King is a terpsichorean artist, and
a very winsome little lady. Miss Gill
more is such an earnest and tireless
worker that she would be prime fla
vorite. even If conspicuous ability were
not united with her energy and efforts
to please. Two jolly Rovers" will be
repeated at the matinee to-day. and
the engagement win close with to-
nights performance.

Special Correspondence OF The Evening Star.
ROCKVILLE, Md. May ,. 1899
The board of county school commissions
ers has decided to keep open the public
schools of the county until June Il. For
number Of years it has been the custom to
close the white schools in the latter part
of May and the colored schools considera-
bly, earlier, but this year the finances are
in such shape to permit the running of
the schools. both white and colored, until
the date mentioned. The present board OF
commissioners, 1t is claimed, has so man
aged the school affairs as to render this
possible. and the schools OF the county, it
is said, were never in a more satisfactory
condition.
At the meeting of the school board yes
terday the trustees of the schools through
out the county were selected. While large
ma jority of the old trustees were reappoint-
ed, a considerable number of changes took
place, and in some instances women were
appointed to succeed the men. At the Hunt
ing Hill school an entire board of women
trustees was appointed. The selection Of
representatives Of the gentler sex for these
positions marks an innovation in the school
affairs of this county.
At a meeting of Sunday school represent
atives recently held here plans were laid
for a vigorous prosecution of work during
the summer months.
Mr.. James Engle Of Forest Glen was se-
lected as chairman of the executive COM
mittee Of the Sunday School Association OF
the fifth collection district, to be associated
with Mr.. L. W. Maxson and Mrs. J. w.
Blackburn of Kensington. Mr.. James F.
Allen of Rockville was made chairman OF
the executive committee of the fourth dis
trict with Miss Lillian A. Bennett and Mr.
Joseph Reading, also of Rockville, as ASSOC
ciates.
A grand Sunday school rally is soon to be
held Il kenSingtOn. be followed nv SIM

county.
