HOUSE OF DELEGATES.
Nearly all New Members-opening of Il
sSession.

Nearly all New MISUNDERSTANDING OF the
Session.
The House Of Delegates started off as il
it were but re.convening after q brief re-
cess. There was q notable lack OF the
hesitancy and uncertainty on the part Of
members which usually marks the open
ing OF session, yet large majority Of
the members are new. There lisa larger
proportion than usual ofold and middle
aged men in the House. The contrast in
this respect to the last House is notable.
That body was noted iortheyouthful aver
age age Of its members, while the present
one will attract attention for the scarcity
OF men Of noticeably youthful appear
ance.
Mr.. Smith OF Berkeley, is ono Of the
younger members who promises to take a
high position. Col. Chew, OF Jefferson,
Mr.. Gilkeson, Of Hampshire, and Edward
Robertson, OF this city, arc also, among
the young members who may be relied
on to be useful Legislators.
The House may DO called good aver
age body OF representative men. 1t has
fewer men known throughout the State
than some recent predecessors, but there
are also fewer unpromising Delegates
than the average House shows. Col.
White, Hon. Dan Lucas, Capt. Nc
Whorter, Judge Haymond-the promi-
nent men can certainly be counted on the
fingers Of one hand.
When the hands OF the large clock on
the wall OF the Hall OF the House OF Dele
gates pointed to l2 o'clock the members
seats were all occupied and the space about
the circular wall, called by courtesy the
"lobby,n was crowded with spectators.
The gallery was likewise well filed.
Among the visitors on the floor were sew
eral ladies.
Col. Peyton let the gavel fall on the
block, and announced that in accordance
with the law and the custom OF the House,
he would call to the chair to preside until
the Speaker should be elected the Oldest
member in point OF consecutive service,
this member Of the present House being
Henry B. Gilkeson, Of Hampshire county.
Mr.. Gilkeson took the chair, and the
session was opened with prayer by Rev.
E. ]. Hart, OF the Disciples Church, OF this
city.
The Secretary OF State appeared and
handed to the Chairman a list Of the mem
bers elect Of the House. The members
then advanced in squads Of six to the
Clerks desk, and took the oath prescribed
by law. Mr.. w. p. Adams, OF the Audi
tors Office, who is notary public, admin
istering the oath. The only absentees
were Messrs. Taylor, Of Doddridge county,
and McMechen, of Wood, both Republi-
cans.
Dr.. McClung, Of Greenbrier county, pre-.
sented resolution adopting the rules OF
the last House and the joint rules OF the
Senate and House, as the rules Of the
House, until otherwise ordered Judge
Raymond moved to strike out the clause
concerning the joint rules, which was
done, and the resolution was then adopted.

NEWS SUMMARY.
Dakota Land oace Business.

A Huron special says the amount OF bust
ness transacted in the United States land
Office in Dakota during the month of July
furnishes q basis Tor the estimate OF an i'm
crease Of population OF 1890 for chat
month. The total number OF new home
stead and presumption entries at the eight
land Offices reported was 1,15S. Esti-
mating the number OF entries at che
DEVILS Lake Office to be 270 (Which is fifty
less than last month), the total entries are
increased to LAOS. III one-half the number
Of claimants were heads OF families contain
ing nj average OF five persons each, the
total number of entries would represent an
actual increase in population Of 4,2S4.
During the month OF July the Northern Pa
cific railroad sold 14,44O acres OF land in
Dakota, the most OF which is said to have
been purchasedb by actualsettlers. In the alb
sence OF authoritative information, no esti-
mate OF the increased in population from this
source can be given, but it is sale to say that
the increase from this and other sources,
on being added to the above figures obtained
from the landoffice reports would Justify mn
estimated increase in the population OF the
territory from all sources for the montho OF
July OF 5000 souls. Thenumber oftiinber
proofs for tho month was thirteen,
an increase OF eleven over last month. It
will prove interesting to see ut the end OF the
year how manytreeclnim have been proved
during the six months from June 1856,
when the record now being kept in
the office OF the commissioner of immigra-
ton began. The fact OF the matter is, the
OF tree claims being successfully
cultivated is surprisingly large, and the fig
OF the statistician will in time satisiac-
torily prove such to be the fact. The num-
Der OF timber culture entries for tho month
at the eight land offices reported was 5S7.
Thi number OF acres newly entered ut all the
land Offices, except Ynnkton and DEVILS
Lake, from which no reports were received,
was $50, 1903, and the number of acres ac-
luired by finnl proof at the Same offices
121, S54.

The Frightrul Plague in Spain.

London Gable: The reports OF the cholera
which reaches here from Spain betray a
frightful condition Of things. The epidemic
is spreading more and more, and the ac-
counts OF its terriable ravages which have
come to London have aroused great
anxiety among ali persons who are in
any way concerned in Spanish affairs.
The stories which come rom the infected
districts recall the worst os the scenes which
are associated with famine and war. For
example, in the town of Erla in the province
ofSaragossa, there is no longer a mayor or
a municipal government. The mayor and
all the city officials are dead, stricken down
by the plague, and all the doctors and
chemists OF the place nave fallen victims to
the pestilence. The shops are all closed and
the town is deserted by most OF the inhabi-
tants.
This is an instance OF what is com.
monty going on throughout Spain, the pro-
vincial towns shutting their gates to all
neutrality-suspicious. and government Off
GERS, as well as people entering from the
seat OF disease. The survivors OF Erla ARE
consequently camped out on the hillside
and without houses, and with but scanty
means OF subsistence. According to the
latest news some OF them had set fire to
the town, hoping by that means to burn
out the plague. The fear ofthe importation
of cholera is taking practical shape all along
the Mediterranean coasts.
