1t is now an open secret that prom
inent democrat of Bozeman is being
urged to make application for the posi-
ton Of register of the Bozeman land

He Returns to the Scene OF His Former
Days.
ALBANY, n. Y, July 22.-The Albany peO-
pie have given themselves up body and soul
TO the task Of c6l5 Jrating the incorporation
of the city. The uprOar that broke loose at
midnight when the bells announced the ar
rival OF the anniversary, was continued until
daylight. A small cannon kept mp the sa-
luU5s, and bOntres were lighted upon the
principal streets. All the noise and enthus-
1asn that Albany may have had peut up
within herself for the last two centuries,
seemed to have found vent. Thousands of
persons remained up through the night, and
were as ready and eager to start IN on to-
days celebration as though they had enjoyed
the most refreshing sleep.
The president upon his arrival was escOE-
ted to his hotel, and after the procession the
president spoke as follows:

The first on the list Of famous or nOtO-
riOus Parhaments was the Mad Parlia-
ment, name given by the old chrOni-
Giles to a body that assembled at Oxford,
June IL, 1858. 1t members were greatly
exasperated at the eXOrbitant demands
for supplies made by Henry III. to en-
able him to prosecute ms military cam
paigns in Sicily. The body broke out
into open revolt against the Grown, and
this terminated ia the appointment Of
tWenty-fOur OF their number to admins
ter the government.
The Wonderful Parliament met Feb.
3, 1888, or nearly 800 years ago. Its
history is that it played into the hands
of the Duke OF Gloucester, and thus
thwarted q determined attempt made by
Richard IL, the King, to assume the
actual as well as the nominal control Of
the government.
The Parliament Of Ounces also re-
ioicsd In the title Of the Unlearned Par
lament. These epithets were undoubt-
edIy applied to it by members of the
legal o ofession, as all lawyers were eZ-
Guided from that body 1t existed In
14O4,and that seems TO be enough to say
of itand its work.
The Addle Parliament was the hand
some name applied to the legislature
that met April 5, 1914, at London, and
which was dissolved on June o. 1t was
not a Engly convention, else 1t had
never gone into history with such name.
1t was like its predecessor, the Mad Par
lament, not afraid OF the crown, and
boldly demonstrated with the king, james
L, respecting "benevolence," ID mild
phrase for extravaganza and personal
pleasures; and that monarch, with the
perversjty Of the Stuart race, sent the
members of parliament home. 1t was
the people who removed this princes
successor The Long Parliament came
In during tho closing years Of the reign
Of Charles I. It assem- bled Nov. B. 1910,
and was dissolved by Cromwell, July 4
1913. It was composed Of 163 persons,
who resigned their authority Dec. u,
the same year, and the body was so
called from a leather-seller named
Praise God BorebOne, who was a lead
IN o. mann l1eT.

house refused to consider either and ad-
jourued.
In the house on July o, Hewitt, of New
York, called attention TO the petitions print
ed IN the record this morning presented
by BuEleigh, of New York. The petitions
came from the New York chamber of com
merce and from the New York merchants IN
favor Of an appropriation OF s., 100000 for
the improvement of the New York harbOt.
The OleOmargarIne bill was next cOnsid-
cred IN committee OF the whole The senate
amendments were cOncuEred IN and the bill
nov goes to the president. AT the evening
session half a dozen bills, among them the
senate bill granting pension Of 500 a
month to the widow of General Stannard,
was passed. The house adjourned.
In the house on July q, the bill for in
creazlng the navy was taken up and passed.
AT the evening session the bill declaring e
forfeiture Of the land granted to the New
Orleans, Baton Rouge q Ficksburg railroad
was called up and passed. The remainder
Of the session was consumed in an iueffec-
uaI effort to secure 2 quorum to act on the
Mobile IL Girard land forfeiture.
2 che house on July 26th, Mr.. Henley, OF
California, from the committee on public
lands, reported back the senate bill forfeit
ing certain Of the lands granted to the
Northern Pacific Railroad company The
committee recommended that IN lieu Of the
senate bill there be substituted the prOVls-
ions OF the house bill on the same subject.
Mr. Henley stated that the house bill TO
feited 33, 900, 600 acres more than the senate
bill. Pending debate the house adjourned.
In the house on July p, Mr.. Hiscock, Of
New York, offered a resolution directing the
conferees to insist upon striking out the
senate amendment providing for the i'm
proVsment OF the Mississippi river from the
head of ths passes to the mouth Of the Ohio.
he stated that the effect OF the action would
be to leave the house provision still in con
ference. The senate amendment which he
proposes to strike out re-6stablisheH the
Mississippi river commission, and contained
some vicious legislation in regard 20 the
building of leVees. The resolution was
adopted-yeas IA, nays IS. The house then
resumed the consideration OF the Northern
Pacific land forfeiture bill. The house
substitute for the senate bill was agreed to
yeas ia, nays Go. The senate bill as thus
amended was passed-yeas 1S5, nays AZ, and
a request for a conference was made. Adj

the correspondence between the two govern

troops. The higher portions Of the city are
plainly visible from the American side and
a number Of troops can be seen busy at
something or other on an elevator back of
the cathedral.
1t is thought they are throwing up earth
works. The feel ng among the Mexican
masses is very bitter against the Americans.
They are defiant and say il viii be an easy
matter for their country TO whip the United
States. They have somehow brought them
selves TO believe that the firing OF the first
gun would be the signal for the southern
states to come to their assistance 70 revenge
themselves on the northern states for the
disastrous outcome Of the civil war. They
likewise feel convinced that England would
az once take their part and blockade the

Willie Sells Convicted OF the Murder Of
Four Members of His Family.
ERIE, KAN, July 27.-Three speakers oc-
cupied the dag In closing the argument in
the Sells murder case. Mr.. John Power,
WIlle's guardian, spoke for about one hour,
and gave his principal attention to the lack
Of motive on the part Of Willie for ths com
mission of the crime, and in explanation of
the contradictory statements made before
the coroner by Willie, while he was ia fear
that the mob would hang him, and he said
anything to save his neck Mr.. COgsWell
made an earnest plea for his client, stating
the age, the good character and the feelings
between Willie and the other members of
the family; the imprObability that boy in
this condition would, without cause, murder
his father and all those dear to him. j. q.
Stratbon closed the argument for the state.
He spoke over four hours. he made a
thorough examination Of the evidence.
pointing out all the weak points for the de-
fenEe5 and putting tbs testimony of various
Witnesses together. forming a very strong
array of circumstance about the prisoner.
In his argument Mr.. StrattOn referred
to the senLlmeuLallty that OcGaslOu6d
young ladies to give boquets and
bOnb0ns TO red handed murderer
and said that it was not on this
principle the case was to be tried, and that
the Jurors should give their verdict e0usid-
eriug nothing but the verdict. The case was
finally submitted to the jury at the cOnCiu-
sion of Mr.. StrattOn' s speech, ana they were
sent out TO deliberate on their verdict In
one hour and two minutes from the time
they went out they returned. The defend
ant was brought into court and took a seat
between his guardian and one of his attor-
neys. He was pale as death, but as far as
could be seen he exhibited no emotion. The
foreman handed the verdict 20 Judge Still
we'll, who read it and said to the crowd that
any one who made any demonstration while
the verdict was read would be punished.
Then the clerk read the verdict of guilty
of murder in the first degree There was
no confusion, the prisoner not moving a
muscle, and the audience remaining perfect
ly quiet. The jury was pOlled, and they all
sanctioned the verdict.
