SCHOOL OF MINES
HEATING PLANT
TRUSTEES DISCUSS ITS EFFICI-
ENCY AT LAST NIGHTS
MEETING.
'%tIlN

The trustees of the school Of mines met
in the office Of Gov. ]. r. Richards last
night and discussed at length the heating
plant OF the school which during the cold
months of winter failed to supply the
heat necessary.
President Leonard stated that the pant
Is the hot water system and does not
supply heat enough to warm one third Of
the school although its maintenance cost
at the ratio Of $500 per year. He sus-
gested that 1t be thrown out and that
new plant to cost 81 900 be installed just
as soon as more ground adjoining the
present site can be secured. He said that
desirable property adjoined the school
property on the south side and that Ca
lena street on that side had not been
opened. The professor believed that 1t
would be we'll to petition the county COM
m:ssioners for the ground.
Trustee Moulthrop opposed the sug-
geston saying that when the city in
creased in size it would be necessary to
open the street and for that reason tho
commissioners would not permanently
close the thoroughfare. After discussing
the matter it was decided to instruct
Prof. Leonard to investigate the matter
of desirable property adjoining the school
grounds and report to the building COM
mittee. The committee on building and
grounds was instructed to examine the
heating plant in regard to it's efficiency
and also as to its disposition in the event
Of a new plant being installed.
Prof. Leonard stated that additional
equipment was required for the survey
ing class and he was requested to make
requsition for all new apparatus which
may be necessary and to report to the
equipment committee.
communication was received from
the Anaconda Copper Mining company
presenting the school with the largest
specimen Of copper ore that has ever
been taken from the Never Sweat mine
1t weighs $500 pounds and vas one of the
attractions in the mineral exhibit of the
Omaha exposition. The present was ac-
cepted and vote Of thanks was extended
to the company.
Bits to the amount Of $2.S15.70 We're au-
dited and ordered paid after which the
meeting adjourned.

The most remarkable hotel in the
world is in California, on the road be-
tween Santa Cruz and San Jose. 1t is
we'll known fact that California pos
sesses the largest trees in the world,
and shrewd hotel-keeper has con-
ceived the idea Of using a group of
these mammoths. thus saving himself
the cost of building or rent. The hol-
low trunk of one tree, whose circum-
ference is about % yards, is arranged
as reception room, and the surround
ing garden, sheltered by thick roof
of spreading branches. serves as dim
ing room and smoking room. A number

badges of the different regiments are
kept, and some of them are genuinely

number being of real silver while the
rest are made of white metal left plain

its contributions amount to $685,31S.55.

Death Aids Good Road Cause.

The recent death Of Miss Rebecca
Woolsey makes available the sum of
$4,000 for the use of the County Com
missioners Of Hartford County, Mary
land, for the purpose Of matchmaking
certain public roads. The sum was left
by William Woolsey in 1888, subject to
the life estate of his sister. There
were originally six members of the
family, none Of whom ever married,
and each in turn left to his survivor
his estate. BY the death of Miss Wool,
sey the family becomes extinct.
According to the provisions of the
will Ct Mr.. Woolsey the Commission
ers must appropriate a sum equal to
the $4,000 left by him, and must use
the same in certain amounts on GER
tain roads, and within a specified time.
1t is probable that 1t will be accepted,
and in that event the roads Of Har-
ford County will be improved to the
amount Of $4,000 within the next
five years.
Should the county not accept it, the
sum is to go in equal amounts to the
County School Commissioners for the
Improvement OF the public schools AMI
to the Trustees Of the Churehville
Presbyterian Church.

WHAT IS SUCCESS

Is II to worship earthly, groveling Gold,
And, dollar blinded, to look only down,
To rake the muck-heap and forget the
crown,
Until Youths bounding blood creeps
strangely cold;
To dwell with Envy, Arrogance and
Dread,
To barter all Benevolence for dross,
To lose Companionship-nor feel it loss,
Because the flower Ct Sympathy is dead
Is that Success?
To labor for the rainbow bubble, Fame
Ahoat so fairly in the morning air
A perfect jewel for a prince to wear
L. it a recompense for all it's claim?
Thro' careful night and crowded, strenu-
GUS day,
Thro' iron rebuff or 1attery-like snow
That leaves one thirsty-it is grasped,
and, 10!
1t vanishes in Nothingness away
Is that Success?
With comrade Duty, in the dark or day,
To follow Truth-wherever it may lead;
To hate all meanness, cowardice or
greed;
To look for Beauty under common clay;
Our brothers burden sharing, when they
weep,
But, if We fall, to bear defeat alone:
To live in hearts that loved us, when
we're gone
the twilight till the morning
break!) to sleep.
That is Success!

The movement of population from
the country to the city is not peculiar
to Maryland. 1t is going on, perhaps
In every State Of the Union. No farms
in this State, however, are abandoned
as they are in New England. Every
farmhouse is occupied, but in many
instances the tenant-house is empty
the tenant has moved into the farm,
house and the owner of the farm has
moved to town, where his family can
enjoy the advantages Of society. II
should be the duty of the State and
local governments and of public-spirit
ed citizens to use every means of max.
ing country life more attractive. And
chief among the attractions would be
