THE HOUSE.
The morning session of the House was I'M
eventful. Scarcely anything but the dull
monotony of the reading of bills and tn,
roll-call could be heard. A little diversion
was created by a debate on the Senate bill
forbidding the expectation of game from tn,
State. 1t was obnoxious to many, and re
ceived its quietus promptly.
The afternoon session was consumed i,
the discussion in committee of the whole OF
two measures-Mr. Jones' bill for consti
tutional amendment providing for the cleo
ton of county judges in all counties with
| population of 10000 or over, and the bill
abolishing the Office of railroad commission
or. Mr.. Jones explained the advantages o.
his bill in powerful and exhaustive speech
in which he expressed the hope that tn,
! legislature would do something practical il
the way of carrying out their professions o
reform. His effort was of no avail, however
| as the bill was recommended for indefnit,
postponement. A lively time ensued on tn,
question of abolishing the Office of railroad
commissioner. The whole controversy wa,
! traversed once more, about score of thu
speaking members reiterating the points
previously made with more or less force
The advocates of the bill had decided adj
vantage. After everybody had wearied O
the debate vote was had, ard the bill was
recommended for passage and the report
adopted by the House amid considerable.

day for the first time in two weeks. He has
been very ill with brain fever, and though
not yet fully recovered, is anxious to attend
to his legislative duties.
