noon session over the question of whether or
not there could be amendments to the bill after
it had advanced to the third reading, the presid-
ing officer pro tenn (Senator L. NJ. CampbelD

peal from his decision, and the appeal
was sustained by vote of 81 TO L. The ques-
ton involved the Senate's adherence to q pre-
cedent which has been maintained for twenty
seven years. although the decision of the presid-
ing officer was in accordance with parliamentary
law. Senator Weir moved that the discussion
on the bill should close at 10 o'clock, but the

ADJUSTMENTS.
nHEA AT THE GRAND opERA-HousR.


Last night, at the Grand Opera-house, Mile.
Rhea presented for the first time in this city
Victorien Sardou's comedy. Arcadia" ga Dan
gerous Game") arcadia" is well-constructed
comedy, full of ingenious incidents and strong
situations, with the characterizations clearly
drawn and a nervous, crisp dialogue that does
not strain the ear The story represents the
antipathy of rustic neighborhood to consery
alive and wealthy city family, who do not care
for the gossip and petty jealousies of their neigh
bors. The fact that Henri Leverdier has
at one time foolishly complimented the wife
of the baron Whose family is the aforesaid
aristocratic one) and afterwards meets and loves
her sister Helene, is made the motif of the play.
Having access to the grounds of the baron by
means of a key given him by Helene, he is dis
covered by the rustic gossip, and secretes him
sell IN the wife's apartments to avoid the hue
and cry. While there he is surprised by the
baron, and to save the wife from compromising
situation, tears a necklace from her neck and
surrenders to the pursuers as thief duel is
afterwards to be fought, and the complications
are unraveled, ending happily.
The role of Helene was enacted by Mile. Rhea,
who invested the part with nalvete and exub-
Grant frankness that captivated the audience.
AS an actress of comedy roles, Rhea
is both charming and forcble, possessing
sa1tous slIies anu winning personally,

and passed by yeas so, nays /.

years to construct crossing wherever the road
divides one property holders real estate The
motion to take up the bill was agreed to. Mr..
Frazee moved that the bill be recommitted to
the committee on railways with instruc-
ton to make its provisions apply to railways
built within the last twenty five years. the
motion to recommit with instructions was sub
sequently withdrawn. Afterward, on motion of
Mr.. Kellison, the bill was committed to special
committee, consisting of Messrs. Keison Frazee
and Cory, with instructions to amend by en-
bracing all railways, and to report at o'clock
today.
On motion Of Mr.. Harrell the House at 230
o'clock resolved itself into a committee Of the
whole to consider the general appropriation bill.
The question was Mr.. Gordons motion to
strike out the item appropriating $24 600 to
Purdue University. Mr.. Staley, who had the
floor, yielded it on the condition that 2 vote
should at once be taken. This was agreed to,
ed by % yeas to Al nays. Mr. Gordon
then moved to amend the item by making the
allowance &c., 900 instead of $24, 600. A question
of order was raised and confusion ensued, two
or three members trying to talk at once. The
amendment was decided in order and Mr.. Boyd
moved as substitute to make the sum 500, 900.
This was rejected, and number of other sub
stitutes were then offered, each of which were
rejected Mr.. Wilson proposed $23. 500; Mr..
Lloyd, $4,000 Mr.. Sayre, $24 600; Mr.. French,
$1S 900, Mr. Haworth, $l5, 600; Mr.. Cory, SIS, 900;
Mr.. Frazee $4,000, and Mr.. French. again,
SIT, 747. 80. Not until Mr.. Staley offered to
substitute $l8,50O was a compromise reached
This proposition was carried by yeas 46, nays "a.
Considerable confusion prevailed throughout,
points of order being raised upon all questions,
while several noisy speeches were made.
Following this Mr.. Lloyd proposed an amend
ment to prevent the college from drawing the
appropriation from the State Treasury all at one
time, but only on vouchers presented to the
Auditor of State. Mr.. Williams proposed. as
supplementary TO this, that none of the money
should be used to pay salaries. This brought
out another long debate, led on one side by
Messrs. Lloyd and Williams and on the other by
Mr.. Smith of Tippecanoe, Mr.. McMullen and
Mr.. French. The amendments were defeated.
When the item to appropriate 500, 900 for new
buildings at Purdue was reached, Mr.. Lloyd
moved to strike it out After warm debate
this was agreed to, by vote of 35 to "a. Mr..
Wilson moved, then, to make the sum $l5. 900,
which was agreed to, by vote OF 33 to 81. This
was immediately reconsdered, however, and,
pending new vote, the committee arose.

Another Day Devoted to Discussing the Pur-

Prayer by Representative Townsend opened
the proceedings Of the House yesterday morning.
Eighty-thr members were present at rollcall.
The morning hour was devoted to Senate bills
on the second reading
Senator Bailey's bill rs. POI to prevent the en-
ployment of children under twelve years Of age
in mines and manufactures was, under a sus-
pension Of the rules, read "a third time. and
was defeated-yeas AZ, nays AZ. Messrs
Overman, Smith of Perry, Staley, Taylor
Gordon, Cory and Wilson opposed the bill be-
cause it made no exception to light manufactor-
ies such as stave factories and the like. Mr..
Williams and Mr.. Pendleton favored it on tho
ground that it was reasonable and was asked for
by the tradesuniOns of the State. That the
bill might be corrected in the Objectionable feat
ures, Mr.. Gordon moved that the bill be re-
committed to a special committee of three, with
instructions TO except stave factories, tobacco
establishments aud others of like character An
amendment to bstitute the age of ten years
instead of twelve was rejected, and the
motion to recommit was agreed to.
The Speaker appointed as such committee
Messrs. Gordon, Williams, and Hopkins. Mr..
Lloyd favored killing the bill at once on the
ground that itlwas class legislation, and that the
Legislature had no right to pass the act.
Senator Rahm's bill to exempt farm lands
within the corporate limits of cities from munic-
ipal taxation was discussed at some length, and,
on motion of Mr.. Jameson, referred to the
committee on Judiciary, with instructions to
amend so as to exclude only those lands bounded
on but one side by city property from municipal
taxation, and that the committee report at 0
o'clock tomorrow.
Senator Hiligasss bill rs 2O0l to curtail the ex-
penses of public printing by reducing the num-
Der of public reports was read the second time,
slightly amended by adding to the list of annual
reports those of the Auditor of State of the pen
itentiaries and benevolent institutions, and was
ordered engrossed.

cattle the world ever produced and al.
most without number. There are large

now about done.
We are now convinced that we are To

At this present writing there is i'm
