HOUSE.
This being local bill day in the
House, there were quite a number Of
bills introduced and some passed, but
they were Of ia purely local character.
Mr.. Msgruder OF Warren introduced
a bill 70 abolish the Railroad Commits
sion cf this s a e, which was referred.
The House passed resolution to
adjourn Wednesday next 70, the pur-
pose of accepting the invitation to
visit the Fema College at Columbus.
1t is probable that the Senate will do
likewise.
