DEBATES ABOUT THE AsYLUSIs AND THE CATH

URoM THE REGULAR CORRESPONDENT OF THE TRIBUNEl
ALBANY, April 24.-Like the HarbOr and
River Appropriation Bill which recently passed Con
gress TO the dsmay Of the country, the supply Bill
filled in the lower House OF the legislative body
with appropriations designed to gain popularity
for the member securing them in the district benefited
Appropriations distributed with such a liberal
hand that resisess support was gained for the BILL
The Senate Finance Committee on inspecting the bill
became Of opinion that the appropriations for many
of the asyums were excessive, and boldly cut
them down. Other appropriations entirely
thrown out; that the total amount was
reduced 100000. The Finance Committee has
had the reward ts members probably expected TO re-
ceveit has been bitterly attacked by Senators for
the reductions and had OF the rejected appropra-
lions replaced by the votes Of other Senators who pre-
ferred not TO give their reasons publicly. Senator
Harris the chairman Of the committee. has had
10 bear the byunt Of most Of these attacks.
Lacking other arguments the opponents OF the reduc'
lions now and then turned from their defence to attack
ferccly the New Capitol appropriation and would hint
that large amount due TO Senator Harrss Gaze
The Senator bore these attacks patiently until today
when he turned on his assaiants and declared that
they should not make the New Capitol appropriation a
cover TO plumber the State Treasury, and that as
far he was the Senate might strike out that
appropriation, II 1t desired No matter what threat
was made. lac going do his duty to the State In
his opinion the sneer at the New Capitol appropriation
was blackguard argument" This last remark was, OF
course resented by the Senator at whom it aimed
as ungentemanly
The Senate passed the bill tonight. Reductions
amounting 70 over 100000 have not received
fits consent but reductions amounting 70 $780,,
600 have All the appropriations put in the bill by the
Finance Committee itself, amounting to S144oOo were

certain partial writer's on the subject aim to

we not infrequently see it gravely stated
that the meat of the Chinese or Asiatic

flesh of this or that smaller variety of fowl
is very ''tender and Juicy" compared with

all lfallacious, and groundless theory.
We have eaten the flesh of every descrip-

The farmer finds at each successive turn
of the season that he has something to do.
His harvest will now soon be finished, and
the interval between now and tall plowihg
can be- devoted to extra labor needed on
every plantation. The, brush, briers, weeds
and sprouts should be- carefully cut from
every tence row. No labor on the farm
pays better than this. It IS easier to care
tor and preserve seasoned rails'than 1t 's>to
make and haul out new ones, besides itNis
much less expensive 1t will be/found that

So soon as harvest is over, fall blowing

signed for fall wheat and some for corn the
following spring. In this labor each indi-

and in doing so it will be we'll to make a
note of them in such a manner as to arrive
at intelligent conclusions. Pulverizatfon

to lay eggs, scratch and cackle. AS fast as
a new nest contains the full complement of
eggs, it is connected with the central office
by copper wire, and the business is settled.
The only trouble with the machine is that it
sits SO hard it matches out the porcelain nest
eggs along with the others, SO that one
chick in each nest is born with glass eyes,
and the farmer has to buy and train dog
to lead it around. This 'makesi it expensive.
