Fire Narrowly Averted.

When AL NUM- unlocked Caley's s
hardware store last Sunday morning
he found himself confronted with a
bank of smoke and every part of the
building was full of it. With the as
sistance of some of the boys who were
near at the time he made an examina-
tion of the building but could find no
other evidences of fire until he en-
tered the tin shop. Here he found the
three. inch plank which forms the top
of the workbench had been burned
through and the fire was traced to the
fuse box located over it. During the
night there had been a severe thun.
derstorm and the lightning had struck
the wires, the current melting the
fuse. How long it had smoldered NO
one knows, but the discovery was GER
tainly timely, for had the fire remained
unmolested much longer there must
have been disastrous conhagration.

molten metal from the fuse caused the

Teachers Training School.

The Teachers Training school for
Mile Lacs county will open at Prince
ton on the 9th of July, 1900. The in
structors will be, Mr.. G.. A. Franklin,
superintendent of the Faribault
schools, Mr.. H. E. White, superintend-
ent of the Princeton schools, and Mrs.
G. E. Guthrie, an experienced teacher.
It is believed that these teachers will
make very efficient corps of instruc-
tors and will make this a training
school in the true sense Of the term,
one in which teachers will not only be
advanced in knowledge, but improved
in methods: Il: ",,
Experienced teachers know that the
success of schools de spends largely upon
the pupils interest in their work, and
the same may be said Of these training
schools, for which the state has so
munificently provided. The teachers
become pupils, and the degree of inter-
est they manifest has great influence
on the success of the Schools. :
I am sure that Mile Lacs county
teachers are in the foremost rank; let
Fthem keep abreast. rof. the forward
movement in education by EN- bracing
every opportunity !. for self-improve-
ment. The work in the Teachers
Association during the past year, since
its organization, while. not all that
could be wished for, has shown that q

THE RAILWAY TO WOODBRIDGE
Report of the Commissioners on
Amendment to the Charter.

Report of the Commissioners on
Amendment to the Charter.
The District Commissioners have had
under consideration for some time House
bill 1890. ITO amend the charter OF the
District of Columbia Railway Company.
This bill was referred to the Commission
ers for their opinion. after being intro
duced in the House, and was returned yes
terday with certain recommendations.
1t appears that this road was chartered
by act of Congress, approved July .. 1892.
oUe requirement of the charter being that
the road should be completed within two
Years from the passage OF the act The
road was not constructed and the charter
consequently expired by limitation.
The proposed route OF this railway is
from a point near the eastern limits OF
Woodbridge, on the Bladensburg Road. TO
Frankfort Street. thence along Frankfort.
Twenty fourth, Cincinnati and Lafayette
to Eighteenth Street. From this point the
route is through private right OF way to
Fifteenth Street. Thence II runs along
Fifteenth TO Twelfth. ut point just south
of the tracks of the Baltimore and Ohio
Railroad. Thence the route is through
Twelfth to B Street, TO Thirteenth. and
thence through lliIAtcHlN street 70 teun-
sylyania Avenue northwest.
The Commissioners report that they are
doubtful whether the location selected is
best for permanent railway construction. 1t
is believed that greater traffic would be
eventually obtained by a route leading
somewhat farther east although the route
chosen would undoubtedly enable the road
to secure more business at the present
time.
n case 1. favorable report is to be made
upun the bill By the House committee, the
Commissioners recommend that the portion
of the route south of II Street be stricken
cut. as it is believed that to permit the
read to connect with the Columbia Rail
road on II Street, would answer all pur
poses to give the road a city connection.
IL a cross town line such as is indicated
in the route between G Street south and
II Street north. is needed. 1t should be
constructed by the consolidated railway
companies rather than by suburba line
having 10 reference to them.
The Commissioners also invite attention
TO the fact that the route as indicated in
the bill passes through Loomis Park. Just
north of the Monticello subdivision. This
park has recently been dedicated to the
District. and would be injured to a great
extent il the road were allowed to run
through it. The Commissioners. there
fore. would suggest that the road be run
just west of the park. This would necessi-
tate only slight changes in tn. wording
OF the bill, which are specified 40 the re-
port.
The Commissioners consider the form Of
the bill correct, but call special attention
to the fact that the bill requires 10 per
cent OF the capital to be paid in. and
states that the balance should be paid In
at such times and in such manner as the
board OF directors may require. II Is sug-
gested that the time when the balance OF
The times. [volume] (Washington [D.C.]) 1897-1901, 1900-02-22

the capital stock should be paid in should
be definitely stated, and that the time
should be not longer than two years.
The Commissioners also recommend the
following additional provision to the bill:
That where the route OF the said railway
passes through CT across any proposed
street road. or highway. which has rot
been dedicated to the District CT Columbia.
the said company shall acquire Dy pur'
chase or condemnation right OF way. not
less than forty feet in width. and shall
dedicate the land contained in said right
of way to the District before permit shall
be given to lay track or tracks therein"
