HOPEWELL
FIRESWEPT
DU PONT PLANT ESCAPES FLAMES
BLAZE STARTS in RESTAURANT
--L00TER LYNCHED-LOSS ABOUT
$1,OOO,OOO.

Swept onward by 35-mile-an-hour
wind, fire which started in a three
story frame Greek restaurant ON
Appomattox street, about 1.35 o'clock
yesterday afternoon, quickly spread
to adjoining frame buildings in Hope
well, va, the mushroom town at the
gates Of the du Pont Powder COM
pany's plant, 20 miles from Richmond,
and at nightfall practically every
business house, hotel and restaurant
in the town had been wiped out, the
loss amounting to $1,000,000 or more.
First estimates placed the loss at
S2,500,OOO.
Telephone and telegraph wires
were soon out of commission and
news from the stricken powder town
came out in meagre messages. While
the precaution Of throwing water ON
the bunk houses within the du Pont
enclosure was made, there was no
apparent danger OF the flames spread
ing to the plants of the company,
these plants being 500 yards from tie
railroad crossing, which separates
the company's property from the town
proper.
Fully 10000 employees of the du
Pont Powder Company are homeless
tonight, and special trains are bring
ing them to Petersburg and Rich
mond, in order that they may sleep
beneath roofs. While many of the
buildings in the eastern section OF
the town were saved by a strong
wind blowing in the opposite direc-
ton, some 300 houses were destroy
/ ed.

Compulsory School Attendance.

"A pamphlet has been issued by the
Maryland State Federation of Women's
Clubs entitled What Shall the Women
DO About Compulsory School Attend
ance?" 1t states as follows: The
General Assembly OF 1914 adjourned
without enacting a statewide compul-
sorry school attendance law. The law
of 1912 requires school attendance in
Baltimore City, makes it optional in
liz counties, and specifically exempts
six counties from it's operation. This
condition or affairs raises several fun
damental questions in the light of a
number OF facts which are to be found
in the reports of the United States
Census and OF the Maryland State
Board OF Education.
Under the law Of 1912 nine
counties are making an effort to Sc
cure larger attendance of children
Baltimore, Caroline, Dorchester, Fred
erick, Hartford, Montgomery, Prince
George, Queen Anne and Talbot.
Reports from these counties show a
slight increase in enrolment and a
high increase in average attendance
for the months when the law is en-
forced.
In the remaining eight counties
there is practically no enforcement OF
the law-Allegany, Carroll, Cecil,
Charles, Calvert, Garrett, Washington
and Wicomico."
Last year the State of Maryland ap-
portioned e school tax OF about $2.94
per child on the numeration of 252,O81
children in our counties.
OF these, 159,7S6 was total number
Of different pupils in our county
schools.
Of these, 146,714 were enrolled on
January 1st, 1915.
OF these, 105,003 was the average
number in attendance in the year
1914-15.
What has become of the 54,7S3
children whose names had gotten on
the registers Of the schools in our
counties?
