and Dr. Gener got good deal Of popular
support for his action.
Both Zayas and Gener have been friend
~ to American authority. but their politi-
cal ambition has caused them to refrain
from active support of the Plat amend
ment. Both belong to the nationalist party,
which is composed of the supporters OF
Maxine Gomez, though the latter disowns
many of his supporters and processes to
keep out of politics. Nearly a year ago his
influence was strong enough to elect Ale
jandro Rodriguez as mayor. and in tht
present instance It will be sufficient to de-
termine the action of the council in choos-
ing successor. His support is claimed by
both Zayas and Gener.

The Columbian Women held the second

evening in the postgraduate room of the

columbian Women is not to devote these
evenings to the purely entertaining phases
of music. but to present that which is de-
lightful in such form as may prove edu-
cational. This result was attained Satur-
day evening when Frau Hoegeisberger, as
sisted by Miss Wnlenbucher, gave in two
short hours an admirable outline of the

LAUREL NEWS,
Proposed Purchase of Electric Light
Plant'seneral Matters.


Plant@General Matters.
Special Correspondence OF The Evening Star
LAUREL, Md, April s. 1901.
A question that will most likely cause
spirited debate at the next meeting of the
board of trade is that of the proposed pur-
chase of the electric light plant located
here and owned and operated by company
composed of citizens of the town. 1t is
said by some persons the price asked for
the plant is far In excess OF the value, and,
1t is claimed, the purchase of the system
at that figure will meet with a vigorous
protest on the part of the majority of the
taxpayers of the place. AS soon as the
question of the electric plant is decided
work will probably be started on the wa
ter works for the town, as the bonds is
sued have been taken by Baltimore firm.
1t is expected that nearly all of the work
allotted to the different committees will
have been completed by the next regular
meeting of the board to be held the latter
part of this month.
The colored residents of this town recent
~ petitioned the school board, who in turn.
laid the paper before the school commits
sioners at their meeting held last Thurs
day, for the use of the coIored school house
located here for the purpose of holding
night sessions, one object Of which is to
inform the voters as to the provisions of
granted. This course was taken, 1t is said,
on account of the wording OF the insur-
ance risk on the property. which states
that the school is to be used for day ses-
sions and the school commissioners must
assume the responsibility If night sessions
are held therein. The promoters of the
night schools will not let the matter rest
at that point, as they have III view several
vacant houses, any one of which could be
used for the purpose. The matter of Sc
curing instructors has been completed, and
it is said there will be no trouble on that
point. The new registrations will not be
held until the fall of 1902, and it Is ex-
pected by that time a majority Of those
who would be thrown out of the election at
the present time Will be able to discrimi-
nate between the republican and demo-
cratic candidates and will be able to pass
the test.
Entertainments and SupperS under the
auspices of the ladies of the Baptist Church
of this town have been held the past sew
eral nights at Hills Hall.

TUE LAKEWOOD SEASON.
Hotels Filled With Over-Easter


Special Correspondence of The Evening Star
LAKEWOOD, n. J.. April T. 1901.
There are few exceptions this week to the
rule that all hotels and cottages of the place
have filled the last of their spare rooms
with guests and friends who Will remain
over Easter, and in many cases until after
the tournaments of late April and May. 1t
has for so many years been the habit of
entertainment here to credit with Easter
Sunday the close of the large attendance
visiting the place that this years experience
Is almost without precedent. That Easter
this year, coming early in April. will by
no means close the crowded portion of the
season is certain, and. in fact all the hotels
this week report bookings until the middle
of May. which promises late spring season
of greater activity than ever before.
The club sports on Friday and Saturday
attract greater and greater numbers each
week. and mixed foursomes at the Coun-
try Club last Friday had an entry list OF
six couples, proving a very enjoyable COM
petition.

New Type sf Guns Tested.

The first Of inc new type of fve-inch
guns, designed for cruisers of the Denver
class, was tested at the Indian Head prov
ing ground yesterday, with very satisfac-
tory results. A projectile weighing sixty
pounds was fired with a powder charge of
twenty-siX pounds. The muzzle velocity
reached the exceptionally high figure of
$3.50 feet per second, showing a muzzle
energy. of 3.724 foot tons. This is 65 per
cent more muzzle energy than guns of the
same type have made heretofore 1t is
sufficient to pierce seven inches. of Krupp
armor at the muzZle and five inches OF
