Discussion by ExecutiveCommittee of Bright- wood Avenue Citizens’ Association. Amendment or Repeal of the Act Ad- vocated — zEested New Streets— Standing Committees Appointed. The executive committee of the Bright- wood Avenue Citizens’ Association met Saturday evenirg in the hall of Bright- ; ¥ood Hetel for consideration of the high- way act, discussing the question as to whether or not it should be repealed or modified. It seemed to be the consensus of opinion that the present law should be cmended sv as to eliminate its ob- jectionable features. If this cannot be dene, rather than carry out its pro- visions, with the uncertainty of paying for the land taken, the indefinite agitation of the question and the unsettlement of values, the belief was expressed that it would be preferable to repeal the act en- tirely. Various propositions were made by way of amendment, such as the opening of certain well-known and important streets and «venues running in a northerly di- rection from Washington, together with additiona! streets running east and west between Spring road and the District line, which, in the interest of public conveni- ence, should be extended. The committee wis of the opinion that the portion of the act relative to the “‘pub- lic exigency” (section 7), in the matter of unsubdivided sections, should be so amended as to relieve the property hold- er of the uncertainty of the time of car- rying out the provisions of the act. Matter of Axsexsments. The committee was unanimously in favor of the repeal of the section in regard to assessments (15 of the highway act). di- viding the expense of the cost of opening highways between the land owners and the District. The insertion of a substitute providing for the division of the expense equally between the District and_ the United States, as provided in the law of 1878, wes advocated. In supporting this proposition, Mr. A. P. Brown, chairman of the committee on highways and parks of the association, made the statement that out of 105 principal cities of the United States 70 pay the same rate of tax or less than the District of Columbia. It was expressed by the committee that it was most unjust~ for the District to be made io pay for the completing of a grand plan originated by the federal government, for the benefit of the capital of the na- tion, when the property owned by the government in the District was greater than that of the citizens. It was thought that if necessary to carry out a general scheme streets and avenues might he deflected from a straight course in subdivisions already built up, thereby saving unneccssary and great expense and inconvenience to property holders, and, further, that a bond issue should be pro- vided. so adjusted that the United States and the District would each have to pay xe) or $200,000 to meet the entire expense and provide for the sinking fund. Vistiors Make Suzgestions. Messrs. E. B. Townsend and Louis P. Shoemaker, representing other citizens’ as- sociations, were present and advocated unity of action on the part of the various suburban associations. Mr. Shoemaker said that under the present law, if a wealthy man desired to buy a suburban kome, surrounded by large grounds, or if an institution wished to locate in the Dis- trict, it was impossible to purchase prop- erty except in small parcels, because the entire District has been cut into insignifi- cant tracts by the street extension plan. ‘Therefore the prospective buyer would have to go into Maryland or Virginia for a suitable location. These gentlemen urged the calling of a joint meeting of the execu- | tive committees of the different suburban associations, at which the Brightwood as- sociation promised to be weil represented. The committee renewed the former rec- ommendation of the association in regard to connecting Rock Creek with the Sol- diers’ Home grounds by acquiring the land on either side of Piney branch stream to Piney branch road, a wide driveway to extend from this point to the Soldiers’ Home grounds. The construction of roads and paths through Rock Creek Park was urged, to do which would require the purchase of the several small tracts of land intervening be- tween the park and the proposed extension of 16th street, which, it was claimed, form a saw-edge disfigurement to the park. The extension of Illinofs avenue, which has al- ready been partially opened from the Sol- diers’ Home to Brightwood avenue, it was agreed, should be completed to Rock Creelt Park with the least possible delay. The committee will again call the attention of the Commissioners to the desirability of building a driveway along Piney branch stream northeast to the District line in Ta- koma Park. Street Lighting Needed. Mr. Edward T. Bates, chairman of the committee on police, fire and light, pointed out the great need of lghting Lith street road, one of the two principal highways leading out of the city, between “A” road, Brightwood, and Howard avenue, Mount Pleasant. He stated that a gas pipe ex- tended nearly the entire distance of this Street, and that therefore there would be but little difficulty in providing ught. Naphtha lamps could be used on that por- tion of the street now without a gas main. In the report of the committee on sanita- tion, of which Dr. C. G. Stone is chairman, t was stated that rapid progress had been made in the construction of the bright- wood and Piney Branch sewer; that the part extending to Petworth had already been finished; that the lower portion of the sewer is nearing completion, but as this portion has to be cut through solid rock it will be some time yet before the worn will be finished. It was mentioned that the rights of way had not yet been obtained for the branch of this sewer to Takoma Park, and it developed that the chief ob- stacle is a fish pond which is seriously threatened by the extension of the sewer. President Appoints Committees. The president of the association, Mr. W. V. Cox, who presided cver the mecting, announced the following committees: Executive—W. V. Cox, chairman; Thomes O’Brien, Austin P. Brown, Edward T. Bates, Capt. T. W. Lay. Highways and parks—A. P. Brown, chair- man; Blair Lee, Thomas Blagden, Capt. 'T. W. Lay, Dr. J. Ford Thompson.

Cc. —- +> —— WORK OF FIREBUGS. ‘Two Singular Occurrences Under In- vestigation by Police. Two cases of supposed incendiarism, one at No. 931 P street and the other at No. 1511 11th street northwest, are under inves- tigation by the second precinct police. The fire first named occurred about 4 o'clock Saturday afternoon. Mr. Frederick Denni- son, who lives in the neighborhood, discov- ered smoke issuing from the house and sent in an alarm. When the firemen responded they at once suspected that the fire was not accidental. Plastering had been knocked from the walls in several places and paper stuffed between the laths. For- tunately for the owner of the property, Mr. Dennison made the discovery before the flames had gained any headway and the firsmen succeeded in extinguishing them. The police are now looking for the firebug. pe! fire at No. 1511 lth street did slight jamage to the fuel shed. This happened aheae 6 o'clock yesterday, and Mr. saop- kins, the occupant of the premises, is sat- isfied that the blaze was started by an in- cendiary.

Ave. WAAC MARRTAA MEETING OF TRUSTEES. fans of Maryla Agricultural College Discuss Its Affairs, A meeting of the trustees of the Mary- Jand Agricultural College was held Friday afternoon at the college building. Among those present were Wilmot Johnson of Catonsville, who presided; Charles B. Cal- vert of Prince George’s county, Allan Dodge of the District of Columbia, Charles H. Stanley of Laurel, David Seibert of Washington county, Charles H. Evans of Baltimore county and W. Scott Whitford of Harford county. Governor Lowndes, who was to have presided over the meet- ing, was unable to attend. The board ordered that the president of the college enter into a contract for the establishment of telephone communication between Hyattsville and the college. Prof. W. G. Johnson, state entomologist, and Robert H. Miller, director of the ex- periment station, submitted their reports. The board officially extended its thanks to Mrs. Riley, widow of Dr. C. O. Riley, the distinguished entomologist, recently connected with the Agricultural Depart- ment, this city, for her gift to the college of a number of valuable volumes on ento- mology. The board discussed the problem of ob- taining a good water supply. So far the attempt to strike water by means of an artesian well, which has been bored about 300 feet, has proved of no avail, and serious doubts exist as to whether the water can be obtained. The board decided to have recourse to dynamite, and this failing, the attempt will be abandoned. After the transaction of some further business, the trustees inspected the build- ing and grounds, and later partook of a bountiful dinner. The committee, composed of W. Scott Whitford, Charles H. Stanley and David Seibert, recently appointed to secure needed legislation also met during the afternoon. The matter of legislation was discussed at length and plans for securing it were mapped out. >— Woman Professor of German. Miss Alice Marie Clark of this city has been elected professor of German in the Centenary Collegiate Institute at Hacketts- town, N. J., and has entered upon the du- ties of that position. Miss Clark is the daughter of Rev. Lucien Clark, D. D., pastor of Foundry Church. She graduated from the Woman’s College in Baltimore in June, 1896, and in July went abroad for travel and study. She spent elght months. in Zurich, attending lectures in the univer- sity and studying German under a private instructor. The Centenary Collegiate Institute is a Methodist College, within the bounds and under the patronage of the Newark annual conference. Dr. Ferguson of that confer- ence is its president. Besides the German language, which Miss Clark speaks with fluency, she is also weil prepared to teach both Greek and Latin, and has charge of a Latin class in the in- stitution with which she {s connected. peer era Virginia Republican League Meeting. The members of the Virginia Republican League met Friday night. President Fer- dinand D. Lee presided. All the congres- sional districts in the state were repre- sented. After the enrollment of new mem- bers the civil service question was dis- cussed, and the league was unanimous in favor of a repeal of the law. The appoint- ment of ex-Senator B. K. Bruce as regis- ter of the United States treasury was heartily approved, and a memorial was ordered by the league to the United States Senate asking his speedy confirmation. The league adopted a resolution favoring the contest of Dr. R. A. Wise of the sec- ond congressional district of Virginia for a seat in the Fifty-fifth Congress, and pledg- ing the support of the league in his fight. The following committee was appointed to arrange for a memorial see to the late John M. Langston: Messrs. F. D. ‘Thos. L. Jones, Rev. J. Anderson Taylor, J. H. Dillard, 8. M. Lewis, W. H. Nelson, R.
