$4,000 FOR THE BLACKSTONE
INSTITUTE.

After correspondence extending over
several weeks Mr.. Andrew Carnegie
has offered SIP, 500, to the Blackstone
Female Institute on condition that the
friends of the Institute will raise S32.-
500 additional. The money would be
used to erect large wing on the west
end of the present building, in which
would be located large Music Hall.
Library, Gymnasium, and about 40 bed
rooms. This addition would not only
give more room in the boarding depart
ment, but it would also add greatly to
the facilities of the school in the Music.
Literary and Physical Culture depart
ments. The money over and above the
amount necessary to erect this new
building will be used to pay the bonded
and floating debt of the Institute. Mr..
Carnegie makes that a condition of his
gift. President Cannon has begun
work to raise the $50, 500.

MAY OPPOSE JONES'.
champion MonitorJ

The name of Mr.. Ohio F. Mears, one
of the most prominent lawyers upon
the Eastern Shore of Virginia, has been
suggested for the candidacy for repre-
sentative in Congress from this. the
First district, to succeed the present
incumbent, the Hon. William A. Jones,
of Warsaw, Richmond county. The
suggestion of the name of Mr.. Mears
met with most hearty response from
his friends in this city, where he has a
very large number, and many through
out the Peninsula.
1t is figured out that Mr.. Mears
would have very good chances. He
would receive large vote in the pri-
mary from his home country, the great
Eastern Shore, where he enjoys almost
unbounded popularity, is known as a
man of marked ability and one in
whom the greatest confidence could be
placed. He would receive large vote
on the Peninsula and ne would ente,
the Northern Neck finding very large
wing of the party ready to flop to him.
The Peninsula and the Easter Shore
hold the votes that would elect him.
1t has been the Eastern Shore which
has elected William A. Jones in the
past.
The remarkable manner in which Mr..
Mears has gathered strength on the
Peninsula, Notwithstanding his univer-
sal popularity, is surprising. 1t may
be accounted for, however, in that
the people of this section are not alto
gether pleased with the attitude Mr..
Jones has assumed upon all occasions.
At the inception of the idea of separat-
ing the district, he as one individual
exhausted nearly every means to block
the measure. The bill, however, went
through, but failed to become a law.
not receiving the signature of Governor
Montague, through the influence, so il
is charged, of Mr.. Jones. When the
matter was revived again, and it seemed
there was no more blocking, it was
wired out from Washington that Mr..
Jones would retaliate by blocking the
appropriation to jamestown Exposi.
tion
The people. just now, however, are
not finding so much fault with this as
they are with what is termed ''snap''
primary, when it was contrived, pre-.
sumably by the friends of Mr.. Jones,
to hold primary so early that it would
be impossible to develop opposition.
This will be the most potent factor to
keep Mr.. Mears from making the race
If he decides not to enter the contest.
June oath has been set as the time for
the primary to be held. This date was
selected before the ink of the Governors
signature scarcely had time to dry.
1t will be necessary for candidates ia
file their notice sixty days prior to this,
which will require all opposition to
come out as early as the latter part of
April.
1t has not been ascertained whether
Mr.. Mears will be candidate or not.
and he has not yet made any statement
to this effect.
