High Per Capita Rate.

Auditor General Powers has deter
mined that the amount of primary school
interest money, to be included in the
semi-annual apportionment among the
counties of the state on Nov 10. is ST..
739, 463 70 The total number of child
ren of school age in the state is 30, Gl2.
The rate, therefore will be s24l per
capita. This is much the largest amount
ever distributed, the next highest rate
per capita having been sl.65 The great
increase is due TO the increased amounts
paid into the state treasury by interests
paying specific taxes.

Louisville. Ky, May SO.-considerable
correspondence has passed lately between
members Of st. Johns Commandery, No.
], of Wilmington, Del, and local sir
knights relative to the attendance Of the
former on the 2Sth triennial conclave OF
the Knights Templar of the United States
to be held in this city August 27-SO. st.
Johns Commandery is under the imme
diate jurisdiction Of the Grand Encamp
ment under whose auspices the great
celebration is to be held. Quarters have
not yet been selected for the sir knights
of Delaware during the meeting, but from
negotiations now reported under way, a
delegation of probably seventy-ive Tenn
plars and ladies will attend from VIII
mington, Dover and Georgetown, all of
which are represented in the commandery.
The approaching conclave promises to
be the most successful and the most
largely attended of any in the history OF
the organization. The Knights Templar
and other citizens of Louisville and Ken
uclxy have raised an entertainment fund
Of 100000 and over fifty committees make
up the small army of workers engaged in
promoting the celebration The city will
be decorated and illuminated in a man
ner never before witnessed in honor Of
an event that covers so short a period Of
time. Something like $4,000 will be spent
in this manner alone. An electric quad
ruple arch 50 feet high and two immense
floral arches are among the designs in
tended TO figure in the special illumina-
tions
At this date contracts have been closed
for ihe attendance of over 1900 Templars
and their friends. There is ample room
for the accommodation OF all visitors and
the attendance from the East promises &c
be unusually large
In many ways the program for the weel
will lie unique among similar large enter
tainments. Divine services will be hel,
