An. Code, sec. 615. 1904, sec. 542. 1888, sec. 383. 1882, ch. 291, sec. 10.

St. Mary's Industrial School for Boys.
An. Code, sec. 616. 1904, sec. 543. 1888, sec. 384. 1867, ch. 402. 1874, ch. 288.
654. St. Mary's Industrial School for Boys of the City of Baltimore
is empowered to receive in charge such orphan and other destitute boys as
may be committed to the charge of said body corporate and to bind out such
boys until they shall attain the age of twenty-one years; and any court or
justice of the peace of this State shall have power and authority, in the
discretion of the judge of such court or such justice, to commit to the charge
of said institution any destitute white boy, or any white boy convicted
before such court or justice of any offense against any law or laws of this
State; provided, that the parent or guardian of said boy or boys shall re-
quest that they be committed to the St. Mary's Industrial School; in all
such cases the board of managers shall have power, in their discretion, to
take into said institution all such white boys under sixteen years of age as
shall be taken up and committed as street beggars or vagrants, or shall be
convicted of criminal offenses.
An. Code, sec. 617. 1904, sec. 544. 1888, sec. 385. 1908, ch. 35.
655. The said corporation may possess and hold property not exceed-
ing in value five hundred thousand dollars. The Governor of the State of
Maryland and the Mayor of the city of Baltimore shall each appoint, every
two years, five persons to represent said State and city, respectively, in the
board of trustees of said institution.
The fact that the Governor and mayor of Baltimore each appoint every two years
three persons to represent the state and city in the board of trustees of Saint Mary's
Industrial School for Boys in no manner changes the nature of the institution, or
makes it a municipal agency. Such trustees do not control the institution nor are
they clothed with any state or municipal authority beyond their mere appointment;
they cannot be controlled in the exercise of powers and duties of their office.
Saint Mary's School is entirely separate from and independent of the city of Balti-
more in all corporate action and control. Saint Mary's School v. Brown, 45 Md. 329.
An. Code, sec. 618. 1904, sec. 545. 1888, sec. 386. 1867, ch. 402.
656. The board of trustees may, from time to time, make such by-
laws, ordinances and regulations relative to the management, government,
instruction, discipline, employment and disposition of the minors in said
institution, not contrary to law, and establish such regulations respecting
the religious and moral education, training, employment, discipline and
safe keeping of its inmates, as may be deemed expedient and proper.
