The Westinghouse lobby has applied to the gov- ernor to hear them before he signs the mea- sure which has been passed by both branches of the legislature.

Mr. Clark is already for the final I combat, but it is not believed anybody will l show m tomorrow The air is heavy with | rumors concerning bribes which it is said | were offered in dazzling sums by the oppon- l ents of the Thomson-Houston Co.,, but the \ fact that both houses passed the bill by such large majority speaks we'll for the integrity of the legislators.

The Directory for Nurses,

Now we'll advanced in the third year of it's existence, has received the confidence and patronage of the public far beyond we had any reason to expect for new enterprise.
 Hundreds of Nurses have been sent to as many sick rooms, and the fact that, with rare exceptions, entire satisfaction has been given all parties, is sufficient proof that the selections have been judicious. Generally the calls for Nurses have been answered promptly, but in sickly seasons the demand has been greater than the Directory could supply. Upwards of a hundred names are on our register, representing the majority of the best nurses in this city and vicinity, both graduates of the Training School and others.
 When the calls are for Trained Nurses, only those are sent who are graduates of recognized schools and have had experience in the private sick room since leaving the Hospital.
 But, bearing in mind the fact that many cannot afford the expense and not every in- valid requires the special skill of the Trained Nurse, we have on our books the names of many desirable nurses who have devoted their lives to the care of the sick, and who the duties they undertake and for a compen- sation below what the services of the Grad- uated Nurses will generally command. It is the object of the Directory to supply promptly competent nurses, both male and female, for any case which may present, and one within the means of the applicant. The fee for furnishing Nurse is small and much valuable time and expense will be saved by consulting the Directory when 8 nurse is needed, either in emergency or for future service.
 Any information in regard to nurses will be furnished and all calls by telegraph, mail or telephone will receive prompt attention by

 There was rousing temperance rally in the representatives chamber this afternoon. The committee on constitutional amendments had a hearing on the prohibitory amendment. The chamber was packed. Mrs. Ellen Fos- ter, who stumped the State for Harrison, was the principal speaker in favor of referring the prohibitory amendment to the people to vote upon. Mrs. Foster is great orator and interested many. Several clergymen spoke upon the question. Assessor Charles A. Baldwin of New Haven, the head of the Sons of Temperance of Connecticut, was one of the principal speakers.
 SECRET BALLOT LEGISLATION.
 The hearing on various secret ballot bills that have been introduced was assigned by the judiciary fer to-day, but on account of the continuance of the trial of murderer Swift,s petition for communication of sentence, it was postponed until Thursday. In the Senate to-day there was quite an argument upon the resolution to print 300 more copies of the secret ballot bill. Senator Hall saw no need of going to any more expense and Senator Clark thought 800 copies already printed was 499 too many. It was finally decided to have 1000 copies in all.

A FAMOUS WEDDING.
Mr.. Maainnis' Death Recalls the
Beginning OF Tweed's Dow n fall.
New York WoflC


The death from lightning of John
y. Maginnis, of New Orleans, recalls
some social events and a chapter OF
political history that were the talk of
all New York not SO many years ago.
In 1870 Maginnis married daughter
OF the late William NJ. Tweed. That
great power in city affairs had not
then reached the zenith of his strength
and pride, but the wedding created a
decided social sensation on account OF
its expensive appointments. Ii took
place In the Tweed mansion on Fifth
avenue, after which the bridal pair
went to live in New Orleans. the home
of Mr.. Maginnis' mother.
The wedding presents were costly,
and as many OF them came from
Tweed henchmen the public became
suspicious, and Tweed's downfall can
be attributed in measure TO the Cos
sip and public talk that resulted from
the lavish display at the Wedding OF
the many. varied and exceedingly
costly presents. Harry Genet gave a
diamond cross; Tom Cameron's pres
ent was table service valued mt
81 900. w. B. Sweeney gave a dia-
mond bracelet; James Fisk, IT,. a
solid silver sugar bowl: Thuriow
Weed a 800 sugar bowl; jay Gould.
a $3.50 silver service; Lord & Taylor
a bridal parasol valued at 81 600:
Mrs. +. A. Garrett, diamond locket
and gold chain vsiued at 5000. Tom
Fields present was 5000 diamond
necklace and ear rings; Judge George
III. Carnhard presented necklace
worth 5000; John NJ. +. Davidson,
diamond necklace costing 81, 500. A
lady friend of Tweed sent a casket
containing Jewels TO the value of
$500. The estimated value of the
presents was SIC. 600.
Among the guests at the reception
were Judges lngrahara. Barnard, Car
doxo, Bedford, Bosworth and Man

Marriage by Surprise.
london Times.


An extraordinary occurrence has
just taken place in one of the principal
churches OF Madrid. i'm The parish Of
Santa Cruz. A priest had nearly fin
ished his mass. and was in the act OF
pronouncing the sacramento words,
"Ite. missa est, :" when young man
aged Il, and a beautiful girl aged 20,
suddenly approached the altar railing
with three middle-aged men, and the
young couple cried aloud. I'VE wish
TO be husband and wife. Here are
our three witnesses. Now, IL seems
that under the canonical laws still reg
uiaiing marriages Ia Spain, Roman
Catholics can thus claim 10 be con-
sidered married by surprise II they are
skiifnl enough TO do so just after the
priest has uttered the benedictiOn 1t

stratagem was as In the present ease. re-
sorted 10 by young people whose
parents opposed their union. When
this occurred in the church
at Santa Cruz n scene OF
confusion ensued The priest retired
10 the sacristy and sent for the
police, who conducted the offenders
and witnesses into the presence OF the
municipal Judge. lie declared the
marriage valid, much TO the delight
Of the young couple and 10 the intense
disgust Of the parents on both sides,
who had resisted the union.
