VILLA MARIA CLOSED
PROFITABLE SESSION
Rose Recital Given Last Night. With Final
Exercises and Recital In the New
Auditorium This Morning.

In the closing exercises of Bryan's
several schools witnessed this week,
none is of greater importance than
that of Villa Maria Ursuline Academy,
which began last night and was con-
Icluded this morning. The work of the
students displayed in art rooms and
other parts of the buildings, as well
as their work in the two excellent
concerts given, spoke more eloquently
than words can portray the splendid
work the school is doing.
Nesting quietly in a beautiful grove,
Isurmounting a glorious hill, this school
from year to year is pursuing the even
tenor OF its way. Quietly, unostenta-
tiously, without flare of trumpet, Villa
Maria, presided over and guided by a
band of faithful. Christian ladies', is
doing a great work, and proving a
blessing and benediction to all who
come within its sacred influence.
The Rose Recital" the first Of the
closing exercises of Villa Maria Acad-
envy, was held last night at the CON
went. The program was one of the
most beautiful conceptions ever pre-
isented in this city The stage was
Iprofusely decorated with roses, gar
lands and wreaths entwined about, and
the program consisted of songs, read
! ing of papers, and instrumental music,
the selections being associated with
the most beautiful of American flow
ers-the rose.
The visitors were shown through the

NARROWING MAIN STREET.

The City Council has voted to mar
row Main street, in order to reduce
the cost of paving, by setting out
curb some twenty feet from the side
walk on either side, and paving all the
between the sidewalk and the curb
to be planted in grass and each &C.
cupant to look after the portion in
front of his place of business The
Eagle has given this matter careful
thought and does not believe this to
be the best plan. Our reason for this
statement is that in just few years
street car tracks will traverse the cen
ter of Main street. The cost of paving
that part of the street now would
therefore be lost, as it would have to
be torn up to put down the car tracks.
There is no question but what it is
wise to cut out portion of our abb
normally wide street, and for the rea-
son stated above, we believe it would
be best and most economical in the
final outcome to cut it out in the cen
ter of the street.
Almost every city in the wide world
has car tracks in the center of its
main thoroughfare, and we will have
to have them here. The reason for
this is summed up in the one word
convenience,
Now, if We kill the superfuous space
at the sides of the street, then this
very same space will likely be needed
when the car tracks claim a portion
of the street in the center. Under this
plan the work of paving would prac-
tically have to be done twice, when
by boulevarding the center of the
street, and leaving it unpaved, there
would be no disturbance when the
car tracks come, as come they will.
We understand that while the Coun-
Gil has voted on the matter, the plan
is only tentative and the entire scheme
may be readjusted in the adoption of
final plans.
