WANTS TO KNOW woMAN's STATUS.
May She lie the Head of a Fnmi'y'-
CnpifoI Notes.

Mr.. Frank Z. Brent. secretary OF the
State Board OF Education, received let
ter yesterday from a gentleman III a
nearby county, asking if woman Is
head OF the house.
1t seems that recently there has been
trouble OF some kind In the writer
school district. and that board OF re-
ference had been demanded through a
petition signed by seven persons. 1t Is
stated that five OF the signers were wo-
men. The law says q petition for
board of reference must be signed by I'VE
heads of families. Mr.. Brents cores
pendent wished 10 know IL woman can
be the head Of a family in the sense
meant by the authors Of the section Of
school law TO which reference is made
above.
Mr.. Brent, in his reply. stated that
while in the majority of cases the wo-
man is the de facto head OF the family,
the question as TO whether she is the
de jure head has not been settled, but
will be decided in a case now pending in
the United States District Court in this
city.
Mr. Brent received a letter yesterday
from Helen J.. Grenfell. State Superin-
tendent Of Schools Of Colorado. asking
for information regarding the manner in
which Virginia grants teachers state d.
plomas. She states that the school sys-
tenn of Colorado is now undergoing many
changes, and that she wishes TO obtain
from other States all the information
possible I'm order to improve the system
Of her State.
Mrs. Grenfell is the only woman in the
United States occupying the position OF
State superintendent of Schools. She was
elected year or two ago. Her opponent
was a man. 4 few days after she had
defeated him he married her.
Governor Tyler has received from
Mayor Van Wyck, of New York, an in
vitation to attend the review and cele-
bration I'm that city. September 9th and
3Otn. in honor Of the return of Admiral
Dewey. The Governor will not go to
New York. but he expects to attend the
Washington reception with his STAFF.

81. Andrew held its quarterly meeting In
the lecture-room OF Grace Episcopal

The subject uppermost IN the minds

convention here Ia 1900 or not. All present
seemed TO be heartily Ia favor Of it, But
the attendance was not as large as usual,
and the matter at hand being an impor-
tant one. II was finally agreed after dis

AUDITORIUNs GOOD BILL.
The Performance ut That Resort
Was nm Excellent One.

Was m Excellent One.
Manager Leath, in his last vaudeville
Offering of this season. has a very good
bill. and the audience last night. though
only fairly large on account of the wea-
Their. manifested it's hearty approval OF
the six acts presented Diana, the mirror
dancer. was the feature OF the pro-
gramme. Her act was series OF dances,
executed with a graceful abandon and
enhanced n beauty by the brilliant light
effects, caused by the reflection of the
rays from many mirrors The grand pris-
matte fountain of real water made
beautiful climax to the act
Dainty little Flora Parker won her au-
dience almost with the first smile she
gave them. And that smile Of her goes
a long way, though the pretty face that
laughs at you from beneath her big hat,
and the trim little figure, both help to
increase the admiration Of the audience.
Her first song is 'The Girl With the
Naughty Wink" and the singer IS as
saucy looking as a little French maid
during its rendition. Miss Parker GER
tainly made a decided hit.
TrovaHo, the ventriloquist. who was
seen here last winter with Vests Min
strels. has a most unique act His auto
nations are the best ever seen here by
any artist i'm his line of business.
The others on the bill were all very
good. Keogh and Billiard presented a
clever sketch called 1.-THE Legitimate VS..
the Soubrette"; Joe Hartman ratified off
n monolog-le that was without a dull
moment, and Mr.. and Mrs. Joe Keaton,
who opened the bill. did a clever enough
act I'm which Mr.. KeatOn does some very
good acrObatic work.
