the proceedings. that the boy was enticed
from his Jamestown home and that he
was surrounded by bad influences at the
home of Mr.. Edward E. Welsh. The latter
contended that the boy was better satisfied
at his Avery home, and that the reports
concerning his bad associations were with
out foundation. The court held that the
final disposition of the case would be post
poned and that the boy would be allowed
TO remain with Mr. Edward Welsh, pending
his good behavior or any indication that the
influences surrounding him were bad
Richard T. Mines, colored, aged sixteen
years, pleaded guilty in the circuit court

Bethesda Club Endorses Mr.. Bryan's
Effort to Secure Harmonv.

A meeting of the Bethesda Md, Democratic
Club was held Friday night at Worthmil-
ler's Hall, Bethesda, Nd, President Wilson
In the chair. The object of the meeting was
to discuss and define the clubs attitude as
to the future policy and procedure of the
party in local, state and national affairs. A
number of Independent voters, not members
of the club, were also present.
series of resolutions were introduced
and debated favoring "a militant and ag-
gressive democracy of the brand of Jeffer-
son, Jackson and Bryan" and deploring the
recession of the national democracy in 1904
from the position assumed in the two pre-
ceding campaigns; commencing President
Roosevelts proceedings against the GRIM
inal trusts as a step in the right direction
and a belated tribute to the correctness of
the democratic position of 1896 and 1900: in
dorsing Mr.. Bryans present efforts to Sc
cure true party harmony by uniting and
solidifying the party upon fundamental
democratic principles, and pIedging the
members of the club, both as individuals
and as an organization, to a constant and
earnest endeaVor to further those principles
locally and generally in the shaping of plat
forms and the choice and support of candi-
dates. The resolutions were unanimously
adopted.
1t was decided to hold periodical meetings
of the club not merely during the tendency
OF the campaign, as heretofore and the
next meeting was set for the last Friday in
April.

General Pryor.

RICHMOND, Va, April 1. - Gen. Roger
A. Pryor, for many years connected with
the press of this state, and who has been
a resident of New York since the civil war,
was here few days ago for the first time
in twenty years. He came here to rest a
short while, having run down from over
work and close confinement. He is now
nearly eighty years old, but his mind is as
vigorous as when he was twenty-five years
younger. The general expressed a wish to
come back to Virginia to live, and il is
thought that he will be making his home in
this city before the end of the year.
While in this city IL was learned that
Mrs. Pryor is engaged in writing a second
book, and that it is nearly ready for the
printer. 1t is understood that the book
Will deal largely with the question of the
causes leading up to the civil war, and to

case from the standpoint of a southern
woman. Her first book has proven n phe-
nomenal success and is still being sold by
thousands.

ton, man of considerable prominence in
educational circles, publishes direct charge
that the state is being worked in the sale
of supplies to the public schools, and he
cites the school register as an illustra-
ton. He says that the book-which is moth
ing more than blank book for the regis
tration of pupils, attendance, studies and
the like-is sold to the state at 10 cents
copy, when the cost of the book is % cents
a copy or less The book is published by
a local concern. and, strangely enough, it
has no author, owner or designer appearing
on the book nor is there any copyright or
patent on the publication.
The charge has been recognized by the
board of education and reply is expected
to be made a an early date. Mr.. Eggles-
ton also shows that Virginia is paying con-
siderably more for her books than many
of the states to the south and west. He
gives the figures at which the books are
offered. The question is one of the most
important in the state at this time and
will be a factor in the election.

Rebuilding Burned Area.
The city has made wonderful progress in
rebuilding on the 40 acres burned over by
the fire of February last year Since the
corfiagratiOn Building Inspector Preston
has issued permits for the erection of near
~ 500 buildings, covering, 1t is estimated,
50 per cent of the burned area. The value
or these buildings, as given in the applica-
tons for the permits, is Sl0,SSs, 1916 Inspect
o. Preston contends that at least 20 per
cent should be added to this amount which
would make the total outlay for new build
ing amount to s13, O66 ssh The size of the
water mains throughout the business sec
ton is being increased. On Lombard street
there will be forty-ineh main and a twen-
ty-inch main will be used as a connecting
belt TO the ten-inch mains which are to be
laio In all streets in the section. This will
greatly increase the water supply for use
during fires, and there will also be fire
plugs on every corner in the new district.
The work OF laying these mains Is under
way on all streets the grade OF which Is
being changed. Fifteen streets are being
widened, graded end extended and the
work of cutting away the hills in the busi-
ness sections Is being pushed with all nos
sible speed. The net cost of the street
work will reach s.. 1856. 1890 The work of
