THE SENATE.

Yesterday was a business day in the Senate
and the amount of work accomplished in
proportion to the amount of discussion was
in marked contrast to some of the previous
days. There was. however, spicy little
discussion over Senator Powers resolution
lin the Interests of economy to appoint Rev.
D. P. Hall assistant to the engrossing and
enrolling clerks, and that project was baked
by an amendment to authorize the com
mittees to hire copying done at 10 cents per
folio when those clerks found themselves un-
equal to the duties required of them. The
resolution authorizing the printing of the
Governors message in foreign languages was
called from the table, where it has peacefully
slumbered for some ten days, and passed,
and our Bohemian fellow citizens are under
deep and lasting obligations to the gentle.

A huge roll of manuscript was sent to the

law. Talking of good faith, he charged that
Merrill had violated his contract by charging
more than the contract price for his books,
notably in Alexandria, Douglas county,
where from ten to thirty five per cent. above
the prices allowed by law were charged. He
thought the resolution had been robbed of
some of its worst features, but he was in
iavor OF still further amending it, and when
that was done he would vote against the
resolution as amended. Mr.. Cham berlain

Shortly after the reassemb!inp of tha
House after dinner it went into COMMITTEES
of the whole on general orders. The first
matter for consideration was Mr.. Hicks bill
for a constitutional amendment prohibiting
special legislation. The author Of the bill
made brief speech in favor of its passage.
MIR. Powers renewed his amendment of the
previous day, including the subject of cattle
running at large in the bill, and made a
speech of over half an hour in length in
favor of it. He was answer. d by Mr.. Hicks
and Mr.. McCracken and he retorted. Then
his amendment was voted down, when Mr..
James Smith, Jr., got his oar in by motion
to strike out the line comforting discretion
uroa the legislature to prohibit Ill manner
OF special LEGISLATION, as he regarded it as
surplusage. He was sustained BY Speak.r
Gilman in vigorous speech. Mr..
Gilman contended that it would be- impossi-
bic to prevent all special legislation, and
furthermore that it would be undesirable 10
do so, as there were many matters essential
to the Development of the State that could
not be facilitated by other means tnan
through special legislation. Mr.. Hicks COM
batted tho speakers views with much
warmth, and quite heated discussion arose,
participated IN by nearly all of tie ora ors
OF the House. While all agreed that some
restriction was necessary upon the tendency
towards special legislation, none were per-
fectly agreed as to the best means to accom-
plish the desired result. Mr.. Hicks, however,
insisted that any amendments would emas-
culate ana render imperative the provisions
OF his proposed amendment, and finally sue

How a Man Goes to Bed.

A wOMAN'S ACCOUNT OF THE FUSS HE
MAKES ABOUT IT.
Speaking of how man goes to bed, an
exchange says: ssThere's where a man
has the advantage. He can undress in cold

an has got her hair pins out and her shoes

this is how it is really, as told by woman,

don't you go to sleep and let fellow alone?
Then he discovers that coal is needed. When
that is supplied and ratified into the stove,
he sits down to warm his feet. Next he
slowly begins to undress and as he stands
scratching himself, and absently gazing on
the last garment dangling over the back Of
the chair, he remembers that the clock is not
wound yet. When this is attended to he
wants a drink of water, and away he prom
enades to the kitchen.
"Of course when he returns, his skin looks
like that of a picked chicken, and once more
