CATHOLIC UNIVERSITY IS
Is YEARS OLD TODAY
Celebration Of the Jubilee Deferred
Until Next May, When Three
Cardinals May Participate.

Although this is the twenty-fifth an
niversary of the Catholic University,
near Brookland. there is no formal OBJ
servance Of the event.
But for the last six months arrange
ments have been made for an elaborate
celebration of the jubilee during the
last week in May, 1915. This delay was
occasioned by the outbreak of the Eu-
ropean war.
1t is expected that at the celebration
next May three American cardinals will
be participating with others OF the
American hierarchy Of the Catholic
Church. Representatives from all the
big universities of the country are to be
invited, and a reunion of all the alumni
Of the university is being arranged.
There are now 700 students enrolled
in the Catholic University. Affiliated
with the university are schools of the
Dominican. Franciscan. Paulist, Ma
rist, Holy Cross and Sulpician orders.
History of School.
The Catholic University was first in
dorsed by the second plenary council
of Baltimore and took shape under the
third plenary council, assembled in 1884.
In November of that year the estab-
lishment Of such an institution was re-
solved upon. Miss Mary Gwendoline
Caldwell of Newport, r. l., made an
offer to the council of 100000 "for the
purpose of founding a grand theologi-
cal seminary for the higher education
of the clergy of the United States, said
seminary to form the basis of fu-
ture Catholic university
This offer was accepted. An executive
board was at once appointed and in
structed to proceed with the establish
ment of a university.

HAVE CONFIDENCE IN
ACTION BY CONGRESS
Utilities Board Thinks Way Clear
for Railway and Power
Separation.

Public utilities commission officials to-
day expressed confidence that Congress
will find no legal difficulties in the way
of passing the bill introduced at the in
stigation of the commission providing for
a enforcement of the relations existing
between the Washington Railway and
Electric and Potomac Electric Power
Company.
Corporation Counsel Conrad II. Syme,
general counsel of the commission, who
was largely instrumental in the framing
Of the bill, is particularly optimistic over
the prospects OF favorable action upon II
by Congress.
When asked for his opinion of the
statement of President Clarence p king
of the railway company that the pro-
posed separation OF the two concerns is
a legal fmpossibility Mr.. SyIne said:
Il have no doubt Congress will be de-
lighted to learn from Mr.. King and his
counsel that the enforcement OF the cleo
rric light and power interest from the
street railway company is legally lmpos-
sible and morally reprehens1oie, ana tnat
Tor ali future time the consumers OF cleo
trio light and power must continue to pay
the dividends of the street railway COM
pany.
Il think Congress will find nothing
legally Impossible IN carrying out the
view OF the public utilities commission,
and will be guided somewhat by its own
ideas as to its moral aspect.

AGAINST CHANGING NAME
OF MAINE AVENUE
Commissioners Make an Adverse Re-
port on Bill by Representa-
tive Guernsey.

The Commissioners are not in SYM
pjathy with the proposal to strike
from the list of avenues Of the Dis
trict the name Of Maine avenue. which
lies between Sd and 9Th streets south
west, on the south side of the Mall.
In a report to Congress today on the
bill of Representative Guernsey di-
recting abandonment of the name OF
good or sufficient reason for the change
proposed.
THE highway. now known as Maine
avenue. has been S. designated from
time immemorial," states the report
land occupies a position on the south.
ern side of the Mall similar to thai
Occupied by Missouri avenue on the
northern side of the Mall, the two ave
nues being the same length. Wher
the city of Washington was laid on,
the avenues We're named otter the
states of the Union and no distinction
seems to have been made in NAMING
the longer avenues after the large!
states.
To establish any ratio between the
length of the highway that bears its
name seems to be contrary to any rule
followed by the founders of the city, and
the Commissioners do not believe that
any changes in the names Of highway 8
should be made except for good anc SUI
dcient reasons. which do not seem to be
apparent in this case
The Commissioners today also report
ed adversely on the bill introduced by
Represen Cary to license chauf-
the ground that the police regulations
and rules of the public utilities COM
mission provide sufficient regulation of
chauffeurs and street car operatives.

U. S. PACT WITH VENEZUELA.
Signatures Attached to Fourteenth
of the BRYAN Peace Treaties.

Preston McGoodwin, American minister

tween the United States and Venezuela
through which all questions not capable
Of settlement by diplomacy shall be SUBJ
nitted to investigation by an interna-

year.
This is the fourteenth OF the Bryan
peace treaties to be signed. The conven-
zion. which follows the lines of one al
ready signed with the Netherlands, does
not provide for the maintenance of the
military and naval status quo during the
investigation period, but, like all of the
peace treaties. binds the two countries not

ing commission has made its report.

CANAL ZONE WAGES HIGH.
Mechanical Force Organized to Re
sist Any Reductions.

organization of the mechanical forces on
the Panama Canal Zone to resist reduc-
lions in the present rates of pay has
been brought TO the attention Of the
officials here. It was said at the canal
commission offices, however. that there
was no danger Of interference with the
completion of the canal, because a pro-

ton bill continues the present rates OF
pay until the waterway is finished. While
the canal may be open to commercial
traffic under certain limitations within
three months. a gerat deal Of work will
remain to be done before the canal can
be said to be actually finished.
The new Panama canal act provides
that employees in the zone may be paid
not to exceed 25 pr cent more than the
wages current In the United States. 1t Is
estimated the present scale is from A

NORTH CAROLINA GOOD ROADS
improved Tho~oushfares Tend to
Prosperity Of Farmers and Saving
Of Time 10 Considerable. i

(By N. BUCKNER)
Throughout the mountain region OF
western North Carolina the good
roads sentiment has attained proper
tons and gathered such impetus as to
sweep aside objections to expendi-
lures for good roads, which is usually
the case in all progressive movements
Of great moment. The movement had
Its inception in Ashevirle, North Caro-
lima. when the Asheville and Bun!
combe County Good Roads association
was organized by few public spir-
tied men who realized the loss to
this beautiful mountain country by
reason Of lack Of good roads which
made II impossible for not only the
people Of this section. but the tourists
and visitors from going from one
point to another.
Immediately aftsr the organization
Of this association, It raised $4,000
by subscription and regarded and
macadamised the road from Asheville
to Biltmore. . distance of Q little
more than two miles. This one piece
Of work in itself demonstrated to the
