The end of the session draws nigh.
The 2Ist General Assembly has done
good work, conservative work, care
full work. The judiciary committee
has guarded the code well against
illegitimate statutory infants.
The committee on reorganization
of the judiciary system has done its
work effectually and well. The only
question remaining being that of
he judicial districts. The grand
jury bill reported favorably by the
committee and passed by the House
is essentially the Cousins bill with
the exception that in the counties of
the greatest population, seven instead
of five will compose the grand jury.
No additional temperance Legislation
has yet passed both Houses. The
Clark bill which passed the Senate
on Saturday provides for imprison-
ment, with no alternative, on second
conviction for keeping a nuisance.
The bill has not yet come up in the
House.
The railroad company's bill has
passed the House but is likely to
have trouble in the Senate. The
bill which passed the House was not

Holbrook. The dairy bill has pass.

SENATOR Jones of Florida is so
fascinated with Detroit beauty, that
he pays her undivided attention, al
though his affections are not returned.
He has not been in Washington
since the beginning of the session
and the question as to whether he is
entitled to the salary has been raised.
He has certainly served his country
in the halls of Congress as faithfully
as has Representative Pulitzer OF
New York who has been in his sea,
but three days. The latter, however
has drawn his check in favor of the
New York Hospital for $1,000, the
the amount of his salary.
