l. John Coates, young Montgomery county
colored man, was given hearing here to-
day before Justice of the Peace Robertson
upon charge of grand larceny. He is &C
cused of having about week ago robbed
the fruit stand of Frank Fowler, at Cabin
John bridge. In default of $3.50 bail he was
committed to Jail to await the action of
the November grand jury. A warrant has
son for a similar offense, but he has not
been apprehended.
A new use has been found for the pes
tiferous locusts, which just ROW abound in
Montgomery county. A few days ago Capt
Samuel Riggs and Mr.. A. ]. Almoney, en-
thusiastic disciples of Sir Izaak Walton

good fishing bait. They provided them
selves with a supply and proceeded to
Cabin John branch, in the lower section Of
the county. In about two hours they landed
about thirty white fish, ranging from nine
to fifteen inches in length

ing none to lose or to injure; but the con-
vention did have a reputation, and should
guard that reputation and character, and
not deal lightly with the rights of the
people.
r. Walton Moore of Fairfax spoke in
favor of submission. He did not think that
1t was in the province of mass meetings of
citizens to undo what the state convention
had DONE and he would not accept the
commands Of the mass meetings. He de-
MED that the convention had the right to
proclaim its work, making a legal argu-
ment in support of his contention.
Hill Carter of Hanover, one of the strong
est of the proclaimers, followed Mr.. Moore,
and with all the ingenuity which a lawyer
can quote and cite authorities to support a
contention he debated the matter, declaring
his belief that the convention could do lit
tie else than proclaim the constitution.
In the afternoon session DR.. DunaWay of
Lancaster spoke for submission, declaring
that strict construction of the law pro-
viding for the convention would show that
it was a matter of doubt if the convention
could do else than frame the constitution
and submit 1t to the general assembly, and
allow that body to dispose of the subject
Dr. Dunaway is a procaimer.
The vote is to be taken Thursday after
noon at 80 o'clock and while 1t is gener-
ally conceded that the proclaimers have the
best of the situation, they will not have the
majority they expect.

THE VIRGINIA CONVENTION
Debate Still Continues on Question
of Submission.
ecial Correspondence Of The Evening Star


RICHMOND, Va, May p. 1902
The convention is getting preceptibly tired
OF the debates on the method of making the
new constitution effective This was evil
oenced yesterday, when three speeches were
made at the morning session, none Of which
occupied more than three-quarters of an
hour IN delivery. The proclaimers are not
doing much talking. They appear to be
sanguine of success. and content to let the
opposition do the talking. That the MEM
bers are weary of the talking was made
manifest yesterday when DIR. Richard Nc
Iwaine of Prince Edward offered a motion
Tor reconsidertng the resolution fixing the
time Tor the taking of the vote on the
method OF making the constitution opera
tive He desired to have the vote taken at
once, as no one appeared anxious to go
ahead with the speeches. He was unsic-
cessfui In his effort, however, the motion
being rejected by large majority
MT Thornton of Prince William offered a
resolution, which went over for future con-
sideration, requesting the supreme court of
appeals or the state to give decision as to
the right of the convention to proclaim IFS
work. MIR. Thornton IS a proclaimer hut
since the discussion has been on, repeated
statements have been made by LAWYERS of
recognized ability and standing which were
of the convention to proclaim the constltu-
ton.
Mr.. Pedigo. the republican member from
Henry county, was the first speaker yester-
day. He made a general attack on the

Fun Is Fast and Furious.

1t is an agreeable change to turn from
the farces of the present day to the i'm
mortal comedies of William Shakespeare.
In the latter class "The Tanning of the
Shrew" is perhaps the best. Its fun is
fast and furious and once seen it is not
easily forgotten. There never were a
pair of lovers whose actions have created
as much amusement as katherine and
Petruchio. II is a pleasure TO note that
the well known Shakesperian star,
Charles B. Hanford, isappearing this sea-
son in revival of this delightful old
comedy. Mr.. Hanford should be admir-
ably suited to the role of Petruchio.
Miss Helen Grantley, who is stranger
here, but whose fame has nevertheless
reached this city, will be seen as Rather
inc. The production will be given at the
Opera house, May S. A complete scenic
revival is promised by the management,
the James B. Delcher company, and the
supporting company is said to be one oi
the strongest on the road this season.

Makes a Decided Improvement.

Since the approaches to the new bridge
over Clear creek on Miner street are be-
ing graded and verything put in shape
it becomes apparent what a generous inn
provemeut in the appearance of the city
the new bridge has made. The mayor
and city council did good thing when
they put the bridge in. There is room to
add to the appearance of the street along
the creek and the owners of property
should take the hint and make the i'm
provements needed. A little paint would
help matters materially.
