THIRTY SECOND ANNUAL
MEETING.
Board of Visitors for the
Deaf in Session Here on
Tuesday.

A full attendance of members
of.the Board of Visitors of the
Maryland School for the Deaf at

thirty second annual meeting.
made that occasion one of special
interest and pleasure.
Following is the personnel of
the board:

Frederick, vice president; H..
Clay Naill Baltimore, secretary;
Charles w. Ross, Frederick.

Frederick, and Lloyd Lowndes,
Jr., Allegany.
All of the teachers and EN-.
ployees except one were retained
and the condition of the institu
ton was found highly satisfac.
tory.
In his report President Barry
states that for several years the
board received annually $50, 900,
but i'll 1879 they informed the
Governor and General Assembly
that they would undertake to
reduce the expenditures to $50, 900
per annum, but they were unable
to bring the expenditures within
that sum and were compelled to
ask for extra appropriations. A
like request was refused by the
Legislature at its last session,
and this will make it impossible to
meet expenses.

TRAGEDY OF CANOSSA.
A Fine Dramatic Presentation
by the Scholastics of the
Novitiate.

AT st Johns College Hall on
Whit Monday evening. the scho
laStics of the Novitiate presented
"Canossa," tragedy in three
acts, from the French of Rev. G..
Longhaye, S. j., translated and
dramatized by several of the stu.
dents. The audience was com.
posed of the members of the com.
munity and few invited guests.
The story deals with the con.
test between Pope Gregory
VII, who was the noted Hide.
brand, and who was deposed by
Henry " of Germany, who was
later deposed 10y the Pope after a
long and bitter struggle. The
story relates the scenes and Incl.
dents of twelithmonth, the
crisis of those exciting times.
eliminating in the repentance of
the rebellious monarch and his
forgiveness after a period of hu-
initiation and self denial. AL
though the story is religious
one there was interviewer strong
pictures of human passion and
devotion, and an especial under
current of great interest was the
effort of Thierry, a secretary to
the Pope and son OF the motor
lous rebel Roman, CinciuS, an adj
visor of Henry, to save his father,
and later to die by his hand in
defending the life of the Holy
Father from Cincius' savage
wrath. The part of Roland, an
apostate clerk, was cleverly
taken, as was that of Cincius.
A fine piece of acting was that
of MIR. Rafferty,, who impersonat-
ed the character of Gregory. The
part of st. Hugh, Abbot of
Cluny, was also we'll taken.
Before the first act MIR. Kilroy
sang 'The Lord is King" and be-
tween each act choruses we're
sung, including the Halleluiah
from the "Messiah."
1t was an evening of rare pleas.
ure to those who witnessed it, as
well as a truthful picture of an
historical incident in the dark
ages when the church was sorely
tried by the wickedness of her
children and her ultimate triumph
and vindication.

A Well Deserved Compliment.

Mr.. Samuel II. Buck, who has
leased the Mercer place, near
Frederick junction, pays Fred
erick County a great compliment.
Mr.. Buck has been a great trav-
eler not only in this country but
abroad. He says this is the most
beautiful agricultural section he
has ever seen, and doubts whether
there is any other section to be
found where such evidences of
prosperity exist. The neat and
attractive homes, the well culti-
waited farms, the splendid crops,
stamps Frederick County as one
of the richest in the Union. Our
wheat crop he says is superb.
