Senator Ives argued that revision was
absolutely necessary. The last revision
was In 1866, and no business man could

AVIAN FIGHT.
Like Old Shylock, Senators Will

Have Their Pound Of Flesh.
Senator Frank Day made commend
able fight for his constitutional amend
meut bill, which provides for return
to the old sixty-days session. He said:
1T would be infinitely better and
more economical for the state, and /
want to say the amendment establish
ing a ninety-days session was got
through by subterfuge. The people
did not know how they were voting; it
was fraud imposed upon them. They
are heartily disguised with this ninety
days session, and if they ever get a
chance to vote upon the question again,
with proper ana not fraudulent ballot
papers, they will with an almost I'M
animOus voice vote for a return to the
siXty-dayS session."
with some jocularity. 1t was necessary,
he argued, for his friend from Martin
county to do something in the way of
reform, so that when he went home his
constituents would pat him on the back
and say: "Well done, my dear boy"
laughter He did not believe in a
ninety-dayS session, as it was a suffi-

Senator Ives looked at the question
from conservative point of view. We
are a growing state, and require plenty
of time to legisiate for the needs of
the people. Ninety days are none too
long.
Senator Goodrich echoed these senti-
ments. Time was required to kill of
bills of pernici0uS character. In the
past bills had gone through the chamber,
and no one but himself knew anything
of their merits OF dement's.
''The longer you talk about this thing

BETTER LATE THAN NEVER.

Senator Buchanan put in a bill which
repeats the Office of superintendent
of fruit culture. Peter Gideon has been
the superintendent, receiving salary
of 81 900 per annum. The Office, how
ever, is now sinecure as the fruit farm
has been abolished. The bill passed
under suspension of rules, it being
stated that though there was no farm,
the superintendent was still drawing
his salary.

of the machine has to supply bond of
$4,000 as guarantee to supply all the

Democrats in small caps.
Present, but not voting rossfeld, East
man, HEIDEMANN, MERz.
On the passage of the bill seven Dem
ocrats voted-Buell, Farley, Greeley
and Hagney for its passage; Capser,
Ives aud Brown against it. Two Dem
ocratS-Heidemann and MerZ-did not
vote.
Mr.. Smith, to clinch the passage of
the bill, moved that the vote by which
the bill was passed be reconsid cred,
and then that the motion be laid upon
the table. This motion was carried AZ
to $3.50 that the possibility of any recon-
sideration was destroyed.
On the final passage of the bill there
were SO votes for it,, but Mr.. Slebbins,
who had voted ''aye," changed his vote
to "no."
The bill now goes to the governor for
signature. Both the house and the SEN
ate have placed themselves on record in
favor OF it. What the governor will do
is a matter of curiosity. The present
Oil inspector was one of his most valiant
supporters in the late campaign, and as
| the office has been, and is a purely po-
| litical one, he may for these reasons
veto the bill. There are no grounds of
public policy on which he can do so. II
he does veto it, it is said that the bill
will be either passed over his veto or a
new one introduced aboliShing the Office
entirely. From other sources the
| GLOBE learns that he will not veto the
| bill, but that it will be signed and be-
| come law at once.
After due consideration is given to
| the persistent fight of Messrs. Day and
| Haven for this reform, it must not be
forgotten that the aid given them by
Messrs. Smith, Benson and Hoyt and
the firm stand of the country members
the farmer representatiyes-we a
! long way toward the final victory.
| Looking over Fridays vote, which
recommended the bill to pass, and the
vote by which the bill passed yesterday,
/ it will be seen how honestly the
bulk of the farmers voted both times.
| Those who voted to recommend the bill
to pass were the same that voted for
its passage, except that on the final
passage Messrs. Ackermann, Barteau.
IN. johnson. Reyes, Kreis, Smout and
VOllmer were absent. Messrs. Dun
ham, Perrin and Roberts changed their
votes yesterday just contrary to what
| they voted Friday, giving the opposi-
ton three of the four new votes they re-
ceived. Of the absentees it is certain
that Ackermann, Kreis, johnson and
| Smout would have voted for the bill.

FISH SHARES.

not meaning nets, are hardly worth the while
wasted on them, but one of the simplest made
can be described in few words. The. pickerel
lift is slip moose of very light copper wire. 1t
should be about three feet long or adapted to
the depth at which the fish are lying in the
stream. The free end should be attached to a
pole about two feet long. From the bank or
from your BOAT with the utmost quietness lower
your moose into the water. Slide it up about
the fish. working toward the head. Be very
careful not to touch the fish with the moose,
but when it is about him just back of the gills
give quick jerk, and nine times out of ten you
will land your fish.
The handiest kind of an eel pot, and one
which can be easiest constructed, is made of
barrel hoops and strips Of wood. Get the
ordinary barrel hoops, place them at a distance
of one foot apart and nail over them strips of
wood. The strips of wood should be an inch
wide and half an inch in thickness. Nail these
strips on longitudinally half an inch apart
The object of this is to have these apertures of
sufficient width to permit the water to freely
pass through but yet not wide enough to allow
the eel to escape. At the ends invert your
strips to an imaginary point II inches within
the middle of the pot. When the sticks come
to almost point leave an opening just large
enough for the eel to squeeze through. The
trap Is now complete. Bait it with small fish
and anchor it. Attach float to line which
connects the trap to a float ON the surface of
the water. This marks where your eel pot is
set. CLARENCE HYDE.
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1889-08-17

Perhaps the simplest trap made is the box
trap for squirrel and rabbit. Get box about
ID inches long. 8 wide, and inches deep. The
ordinary salt box will answer Halve the box
by removing the top and one end. Hinge the
top on to the end from which it has Just been
removed-leather hinges will do very nicely.
At the same end nail in an upright position a
stick IL inches high: bore half-inch hole
through the middle of the same end of the box
andput through 1t trigger of a figure four trap;
run string from the top of tie opening end OF
trigger; at this end of the string tie a pinch
silver Of wood set in a notch in the end of the
box an inch higher than the hole through
which the trigger extends. The box is now
open and your trap set. Bait the trigger with
sweet apple or an ear of corn. The rabbit or
squirrel enters the trap. nibbles the bait and
loosens the trigger. With snap the cover
falls and you've bagged your game.
THE WILD TURKEY TRAP.
For all large game the familiar snap steel
traps cannot be improved upon.
In wild turkey trap you have to rely, in a
large measure, on the natural stupidity of the
bird. four-sided pen of proportions best
adapted to ground on which you elect to erect
1t Is built OF twigs and grasses. The walls
should be about two feet high. For roof use
pine or hemlock boughs and weight them down
securely; leave one very small opening in your
wall and in it leading into the pen strew corn.
The turkey eats its way in. Once inside and
having consumed all the food the bird looks
for an egress, but in turkey fashion endeavors
to get out through the roof. The opening in
the side is small and the inturned twigs prove
an effectual barrier. He never thinks of trying
to crowd out the way he came in, and is there
fore, close prisoner until released.

Now that the breech-loading shot gun and
riie are in such general use the old-fashioned
methods of sharing and trapping game are sell
dom practiced- Still the demands of the bird
faneiers and others for live specimens of rare
birds and of the fur market for uninjured furs
keeps alive the art of properly constructing
SHARES, traps and dead falls
FIRST an foremost among the simplest snares
made Is what lis known set lines" To begin
with il is essential to find a spot most fire.
quented by the birds you wish to snare. The
spot selected should be for a limited space at
least fairly smooth. Provide yourself with jack
knife, some strong cord, a quantity of horse
hair, and two bits of hard wood. Make the
two small stakes about six inches long aud
drive them down into the ground at distance
Of fifteen feet apart Run a strong cord taut
and fat on the ground from one stake to the
other, taking care to securely attach it at either
end. At intervals of foot more bind Sc
curely to the main cord little branching slip
nooses of horsehair. These nooses when
spread out should be about six inches in diam
eter. In the loops sprinkle some grain seeds.
The snare is now set. but if you wish to take
the birds alive the set lines should be carefully
watched lest the shared birds in their exertions
to get away should beat themselves to death
against the ground.
