Mrs, Jeannette M. Thurber has a great project in hand, in which many Washingto- nians are interested. It is the foundation in this city of a memorial music hall worthy of the nation and in many respects similar to the great music halls in the European capitals. In this she bas had the hearty co-operation of many of the leading citizens of other cities who are fully impressed with the importance of the proposition. Mr. Myron M, Parker, president of the Board of Trade, has received a letter which shows the interest that has been taken in the move in jew York. The letter, signed by John Jay Knox, Wim. G. Choate, Horace White, Abram }S. Hewitt, Carl Schurz and F. R. Coudert, warmly applauds the project. A TALK WITH MRS. TAURRER. A Stan reporter called on Mrs. Thurber this morning in her apartments at the Shoreham, and asked if she would not be willing to give ber views at some length. “Indeed I will, with pleasure, for the plan is one in which I am deeply interested,” said “Ecoxomy” gas range cor. 45y.

Mrs. Thurber?” THE LOCAL ORGANIZATIONA. “What is the best scheme that has occurred to you? Some two years ago.” Mrs. Thurber an- swered, “I suggested in acasual way a music hall for Washington, thinking that it might be the flucleus, a beginning of the beaux arts, and one of the objects of my visit to Washing- ton this winter was to look into Washington city, musically speaking. Having heard some- thing of the local organizations—the George- town Orchestra, Choral Soc: and others I wished to judze for myseif whether these might not be utilized, if properly directed. in helping develop a permanent national educa- tional work. I have made ita pleasure for years to look into the history of the European organiza- tions, The National Conservatory of Austri the famous Vienna school, grew out of a choral society, and that institution today is supported entirely by the people.

If the people of Chicago can raise 210,000,000 for an indulgence in transient buildings, only to live during the exposition period. surely Washington can raise $1.000,000 tor the permanent beautification of the na- tional capital and the permanent benefit of the whole country. . A NATIONAL MOVEMEN “As the object to be attained is a national one, every portion of this country is inter ested in the result and should be equally so in all that assists in its achievement. I hope that every great center of our population, that each city among us, will see in this a common catse and help it accordingly. A compara- tively small percentage upon our limitless wealth is all that is wanted for the establish- ment on a fitting seale of the great work now before us, and like the proverbial bread upon the waters, it will return to us ere many days. The appeal should not only be made to native-born Americans, but “also to our adopted feliow citizens who have made our land their home. Indeed the passing ot a single generation makes Americans of us all, and it is the future as well as the present for which we are now building. Let us start at once @ national enthusiasm and make Washiug- ton the nursery of genius.” Paes EAST WASHINGTON’S. WANTS. Street Railroad Matters Considered by the Citizens’ Association.

Street railroad matters occupied much of the attention of the East Washington Citizens’ As- sociation at a meeting held last night. The action of the District Commissioners in inform- ing the public as to the date of proposed hear- ings of those who had something to say as to railroad routes was complimented by Mr. Weller in his report from the committee on railroads.

Again tonight. NATIONAL. —Last night was an opening night. The play was “Inherited,” a collaboration by Mr. Richard Davey and Miss Lucy Hooper, and the player was Maude Granger. ‘‘Inherited” is an emotion in four week: four-act emo- tional drama, in other words—in which ivlen Carruthers (Maude Granger), with an inherited trait of insanity, marries Julian Kaymond (Harry Mainhall), and ia time goes mad, leav- ing a year-old child and Alice Pelham to her husband. After tive years her husband, hay- ing had the marriage annulled, marries Alice, ged on this day the wife's reason is restored and she escapes from the asylum and comes home. She comes, however, too late to do much else except to t poison, and this she does and dies. Barring an excess of tears, the play is strong in the strength of stirring emo- tions, and Miss Granger handles the character with power and a repressive force that greatly intensifies her work. Her mad scenes were particularly good and true to nature in the in- terpretation, and her dying very agreeably lacked the harrowing element. Her support, in the main, was not good, but it may be en- couraged and improved.

Correspondence of THE Evexina Star. Rockviiue, May 4. The people of this county are getting rather nervous in regard to the report of the receivers appointed by Judge Alvey of Washington county to look into the affairs of the Chesa- peake and Ohio canal. They realize the great depression in the price of land along the bor- ders of thecanal, aud are eager for some action that will give them relief. A striking instance of this depression is foaud in an open offer to sell one of the best and most highly improved farms in that section for #17 per acre, whereas the same land situated within two miles of the Metropolitan branch would readily command 3100 per acre. The Teachers’ Association of this county held a meeting here yesterday which was of unusual interest. The question, “How to teach history” was ably discussed by Prof. A. Newell of the state board of education, his wile, Mrs. Newell, and several prominent teachers of the county.
