AID FOR COLORED SCHOOLS.
Bills introduced in the Legislature Yester-
day Have That Aim.

Senator Groves and Representative
Ewing Monday informed the Legisla-
ture that they would introduce bills to
aid the colored schools in the state. AS
the bills carry an appropriation Sen
atOr Groves learned it legally could
not be introduced in the Senate and
Mr.. Ewing will present it in the House
instead.
''Many of the buildings now used
by the colored people for school houses
are unfit and inadequate for the pur-
pose" says the preamble, and the fin
ancial condition of the colOred people
Is such that they cannot afford to
build school houses through taxation
solely as provided in the general
school laws of the state.
The bill is intended to appropriate
annually $4,000 for repairing enlarg
ing and building school houses for the
colored children, the amount to be
equally divided among three counties
and under the control of the county
commissions. No amount is to be ap-
propriated to any district unless the
school committee of that district shall
raise a sum equal to at least One-hali
of the amount to be allowed by the
county school commission.
