Aa lanpartaat Step la Maaleal Collar Prspsied by Maac. SaaaaeU A plan haa been originated by Mme. Samuel for the establishment in New Orieana of conservatory of music such aa exists In European cities and some of the larger Northern and Eastern citiea of thla country. It ia an admirable move, promising to receive the support of the beat people of the community. Mme.

Samuel has for years 'contem-plated this move, and tbe auecesi the private college of music of which she la the head demonct rated to her the feasibility of tbe conservatory on a more extended scale. For the psst year the haa been quietly at work on tbe plan, and several weeks ago she determined to pnt It into execution. Friday ahe called at The Times-Democrat office and announced that ahe waa prepared to begin practical work on the scheme. Within few daya a meeting of promoters of the plan will be held and definite atepa will be taken looking to the formal opening of the projected conservatory on the 1st of October. Mme.

Samuel will be the director of the school. She Is a musician of recognized merit snd capability, with an energy and enthusiasm which would go far toward Insuring the success of the venture. There la no city in the country better adapted to be the seat of such an In-atltution than New Orleans. It ia tbe natural musical centre of the South, It la second to no city In the country In the muslca! appreciation of its niassea. and It posacaaes advantages of climate which would recommend It as a point for the pursuit of musical studies to persons living beyond tbe circuit of which it Is the legitimate musical centra.

The people of New Orleans, the people of the State and tbe South generally are essentially a muaical people. Their land la one of poetry and romance, and music ia aa natural to the people aa to the birds. Music being one of the established and inevitable conditions of the conntry. It fallows that the aim of those having the Interest of tn.e art at heart ahould be to have the best music that the world at present affords. New Orleans has not bad the advantage of acquaintance) with all the great modern composer.

Its people have not had the advantages of contact with the moat advanced musiciana of tha time. The material la excellent; it only needa polishing. The system of control proposed for tha contemplated conservatory of music will be In accordance with that nanally prevailing In stock company Institutions of the kind. The stock will be divided Into a certain number of sharee of 100 each. There will be a boarding department for students residing ont of the city.

It Is proposed that at tha annual examinations the Institution shall bring hither the most famona musiciana of the country and have them paaa upon the merit a of tbe graduating claas Jnat aa is done at the Paris Conservatory and other Institutions abroad. It haa been shown that there Is decided advantage In teaching to claaaea from the wider field of Inquiry opened by a number of pupils as well as from tbe spirit of emulation snd competition alwaya existing among students. Mme, Samnel's move la on deserving the amplest support of tha community. The conservatory will bo conspicuous among the progressiva Institutions of tha city. HOLTHOLT.

Bishop, ef tha New Orleans Zoological Garden Association, whoae office ia in the Auctioneers' Ex change, on Baron ne street, between Common and Gravier, said yesterday that about $W00 had been subscribed to the capital atock of the association, which la fixed at divided Into 10UU shares of $50 each.

Mr. Bishop la Inclined to be enthusias tic over the prospects for soo logical garden. He said that West End and Spanish Fort were In competition for the location of the gardens, and that the New Orleans Brewing Association would be an active bidder against all comers for the privilege of selling beer. The other privileges in tbe gardens, he said, would not be let out, but would be run by the association itself to help defray expenses. ihe venture.

Mr. Bisnop said, would prove a financial success. The association Leld optiona on the auimala it wanted at 30 per cent under current prtcea, and If tney were decided to be sold (hey could be disposed of at almost any time, at regular prices. It wss intended to fix the adaiission price to tha gardena at a low ngure so aa to induce imtronaze and tbe exkeuditure of money inside the precincts of the show. In this climate such a ven ture could be run cheaply, so that the pos sibilities of profits to the stockholders would be correspondingly good.

Mr. W. J. NVHe- OsTera a. Ssggts-tlaa ta the Railway Systeasa.

Mr. W. J. Wile, the well-known vinegar dealer. Is lo the front with a suggestion for the atreet railway people.

He lives oa the Magazine line, and hi a cor sequent dust sufferer, and in tbe mingled wreatha of cigar smoke and atreet dust he haa evolved the following plan for the remedying of the evil: I would auKiest," said Mr. Wile yesterday, "that the roads abandon the Idea of a sprinkling tram ear and anbstltute for it a simple device, by meana of which each car could easily sprinkle the track for Itself. My plan would be for a water tank to be placed in front of each car, or aay every third car. A tank of about 125 gallons rapacity could easily be placed in rout of the dashboard of a car. with three pipes beneath it- Oue pipe would he the width of the tra'k.

and would thus sprinkle downward, white a shorter pie at each end of the tauk would throw tbe spray beyond tbe track. "To this plan might be urged the objection that such a tank would have lo be refilled very often. In answer to that object ion 1 would say this: A ear sprinkles such of the street aa needa sprinkling at the time of paasage. the uiotormau being able by a simple device to open or abut the discharge. Suppose the water is exhausted? Tbe next car that comes along with a sprinkling attachment takes up tbe sprinkling where the one in front left off.

In this way, the tanks being filled at tbe -terminus of tbe line, the cars fitted with the tanks could keep the atreet comparatively well laid, so that even if the dust was not altogether kept from being blown about by the wind, at least travel In the cars would be lean. I believe tbat the Traction Company would find this aa easy and cheap solution of the present trouble. If one water car would cost which I believe Is the estimate, enough to keep the Traction Company tracks watered would cost a great deal of money. The plan I aug-gest would. I think, be a comparatively cheap solution of tbe present evils." WE KEEP THE BEST ICE CRE IX FREEZERS.

Caa we strve yaaf Ju Baldwla at Cw- Baited, Bl'RGLARS BEWARES, A Recent Inapreveaaeat latredaeed hy the Boy la a The Boylan Agency now has the "Holmes' Electrical System" In active operation in eighteen banks and businesa houses, with fourteen more contracts to be aupplied with tbe automatic alarm. The system, Superintendent O'Con nor said yesterday, waa what enabled in spector Byrne to prevent burglaries In New York with a rotten police force. The system is one that can be fully appreciated, perhaps, by expert electricians only in ita scientific completeness, but that business men realise its advantages ia evidenced by the fact that it ia luted by etery diamond dealer in Maiden Lane, New Turk City. By meana of tbe In tricate system of wires employed, the central othce of the system la enabled to tell whenever a door ia opened or wall fl'tce-i. and the lndicr Krs in the ceatral office of the system even Indicate whether tbe trouble Indicated Is Inside or outside the building affected.

In every door or window to be protected two poles are set In a braaa plate in the frame, and are so arranged that they press against connections in tbe door when the latter ia closed. If desired the door can be fitted with an Intricate mesa of wires, so that even If a hole la bored In the door one of the wires will be cut and the central office notified. In the event of tbe cutting of a wire of this sort the Indicator, or galvanometer. wU indicate a lessened: or hizher tension. Tbe first object being to protect vaulta and aafes.

oue of the striking features of the system is tbe covering or cabinet. in which protected vaulta and aafes are placed. Thin cabinet is of wood, with the aides and other portions so permeated with a meshwork of very tine wires that it ia Impossible to stick even a a mall In-atrument into the wood without atriklnr a wire and establishing connection, and therefore notifying tbe central omce. The doors of these rabineta are fitted with the same connection aa are placed on doors and windows, so that even if a burglar ahould succeed In opening a lock the central office is notified the instant the pressure is removed from tbe poles, while tbe meshwork of wires in the cabinet prevents tbe possibility of a piece of the covering being cut our, Assumipg that a burglar succeeds In opening tbe door of tbe New Orleana National Bank, tbe moment tbe swinging door removes the pressure from the poles in the frame the indicator in the Boylan offl -e. before which a man site constantly, indicates that something is wrong.

The needle or the galvanometer moves to toe right, wtih-h indicates the opening of a d'Mir. Should a burglar or a tire or any other caure result in the aeverlng of a wire outside tne hulidlng. then the needle moves to the left of Ita accustomed posi tion, indicating that the trouble la outside the bank. When a reporter looked at the Indicators late yesterday afternoon all the bank needle were pointing straight np. showing that ail the doors were closed.

It was after closing hours, and should any of tbe needles have been pointing to either riebt or left it would have been a sign that anmething was wrour with tbe wires, either inside or ontside of tbe banks. On the other hand, ad tbe needles of the stores were pointing to the riht. showing that the doors were still open, snd sluce tbe oftir-e bad on file tbe closing and openinc hours of tbe several patrons. It waa seen that these atores were open, but all richt.

For some time the families living oa Camp and Prytania streets, along the line of the electric railroad, have been greatly annoyed by tbe passing up and down the line of several cars hich have flat" wheela. That la, a certain portion of the rim of the wheel has become worn flat and every time It revolves It strikes the rail with a loud click-click" that can be heard several blocks away. Many of tbe regular patrons of tbe Prytania line have complained of thia very disagreeable noise, which, when riding In the cars, la ninch more noticeable (run tbe fact tbat there is a distinct jar which even shakes the lamps.

There are at least rive or six ears afflicted with flat wheela which pass over the line every day. and those who are obliged to stand tbe noise are very de-sir, una that new wheels be placed oa tbe ears in order that their shattered nerves may have a rear.
