~ ~ ~ t
Charleston, W. Va, Feb. 24.-The
prohibition against the exhibition dur
ing the period OF the war of the Birth
of a Nation and similar pictures and
plays, put into effect last summer by
an order of the Executive State Coun-
ell of Defense, was continued indefi.
nitely by the legislature, Thursday
last, when it passed a measure draft
ed by H. j. Capehart, one of the three
colored members of the lower house.
The law provides as a penalty not
only for exhibiting, but also for ad-
vertising such pictures and plays, a
fine of not more than $1,000 ana con-
days, the latter at the discretion of
the court.
Other legislation of special benefit
to the race was the creation of the Of
flee of state supervisor of colored
schools with a salary of $1,000 per
annum and $4,000 for travelling ex-
penses, and an advisory board to the
state board of education to be COM
posed of two citizens of color, the
compensation of each to be $1,000 a
year and $500 for travelling expenses.
This advisory board, acting with the
supervisor, practically will have
charge of all matters pertaining to
the states colored educational insti.
tutions. 1t authoritatively is reported
that among the first duties it will be
called upon to perform will be the
recommending to the state board of
education of a president for the West
Virginia Collegiate Institute, where a
change has been under consideration
for some time.
In the matter Of appropriations for
the next two years the Legislature
was very liberal to the colored insti-
tutions. For the erection and mainte-
nance of a hospital for colored insane,
S165, 900 was provided. Forty thou
sand dollars was voted for land, build
ings and current expenses of a col
ored deaf and blind school. Other in
stitutions and their appropriations
are: Colored tuberculosis sanitarium,
SAB, 900; orphans home, 1000; West
Virginia Collegiate Institute, STAG 900;
Bluefield Colored Institute, $67, 000;
Storer College "a private institution ,
$5,400; Barnett, Harrison, Mercer and
Lomax hospitals privately owned)
each, $500; a total of $50S. 900.
