The Worlds Fair Legislation Comp Ieted
in Good shape.

SPRINGFIELD, Ills, Aug. 2-The first
thing the house did yesterday WAS TO
adopt joint resolution providing for ad-
journment sine die of the two houses at
che close of the days session. Resolu-
tions of respect TO the memory of the
late ex-Speaker Miller and Emanuel Sto-
yer, W. NJ. Evans, Joshua White, and
Henry Decker, ex mem bers of the legisla-
ture, were adopted, and the Worlds fair
enabling act was then passed as amended
Thursday and sent to the senate. That
body having disagreed to the eight-hour
and submerged lands amendments
the matter went to conference and the
house receded from the first and agreed to
provision in the second that under no
circumstances should the lands reclaimed
be given over to corporation. This
agreement was ratified by the house,
Mooney, the author of the eight hour
amendment to the enabling act which was
dropped by the house, offered that amend
ment in the form of a joint resolution and
it was unanimously adopted. 1t requests
the fair directors as far as possible to
adopt the eight hour plan and employ
only American citizens. Tho house then
adjourned sine die.
In the senate the enabling act was i'm :
mediately taken up and the eight-hour
amendment and one providing that all
land recovered from the lake shall be the
property of Chicago TO be forever main
tained as a park were rejec..ed, and the
bill sent to conference. The conference
agreed as reported above in the house
record, and the agreement was adopted by
the senate, which, sfte: adopting Mooney IS
joint resolution, adjourned sine die

READING, Pa. Aug. 2-Frederick Sheaf-
fer, aged 60, of Lancaster county, had an
exciting contest with mad bull Thurs
day. While sitting under tree he was
suddenly attacked by the ferocious bull.
Farmer Sheaffer struck the beast and
broke his cane, and was then at the mer-
cy of the bull. The animal butted him
to the earth, and then, amid loud snort
ing rammed him with his short, stumpy
horns on the breast and head. rolling his
victim around and paving him.
Rescued by His Cows.
Just as the old man began to believe
that this was the last of earth his herd OF
cows came running to his defense. Their
believing could be heard half mile
away, which attracted farm hands near
by. The cows viciously attacked the bull
with horns and hoofs, and succeeded after
desperate battle in drawing him of.
Farmer Sheaffer hurried away and con
cluded to wade across to the other side oil
the stream to be sure of his safety The
| bull escaped from the cows, leaped into the
| stream, following the wounded farmer,

Held at Bay with Water.

off the animal by severely prodding him.

much indignation Is man Tested with their
less faithful colleagues. The list of alb
sentees is daily growing larger, and
though the Democrats look upon it with
q feeling of equanimity, the Republicans,
who are responsible for legislation, regard
it with impatience. They feel that they
are entitled to the attend incs of their col

And DIR. Tyner Says 1t Is Wicked Book
The Prescription May he Reversed
First Treasury Statement Under the
New Form-Plumb Not In Line with
His Republican Colleagues on the Tar
in-Railway Rates Cut by the Inter
State Commission.
WASHINGTON CITY, Aug. 2-The post
office department has made public the de-
cision under which Tolstoi's latest work,
"The Kreutzer Sonata" has been excluded
from the mails. The matter was first
called to the attention of the department
by a letter from James A. Sexton, post
master at Chicago, who forwarded under
date of July o an application from local
publishing concern to have this book ad-
mitted to the mails as second GLASS mat
ter as volume Of a periodical library"
Postmaster Sexton wrote that an edition
OF 1900 copies was said to have passed
through the mails unchallenged. Since
that time the press has called attention to
the character of the work, saying that the
circulation has been interdicted in Ger
many and Austria on the ground of i'm
morality.
Thinks Tolstoi Has Degenerated.
81 am aware" says Mr.. Sexton, that
it's author is an illustrious character who
has written some works that have given
him great reputation; but careful exam
ination of the volume forwarded conviness
me that Tolstoi's pen has sadly degener-
ated, and the book is unfit to be read, and
submit for your consideration whether
our mails ought to be prostituted to the
circulation of such filthy trash" Under
date of July 10, Postmaster Sexton sent
to the department editorial criticisms Of
the work which he had clipped from lead
ing newspapers.
Tyner Condemns the Book.
Mr.. Sections letter was referred to the
| assistant attorney general for the post
Office department, Mr.. TyneI, by ThirC
Assistant Postmaster General Hazen.
| Under date of July &c Mr. Tyner wrote tC
| Mr. Hazen: Il return herewith the pub
| location entitled ,Kreutzer Sonata Of
fered for mailing at the postotfice at Chi
| csgo, H.. as matter of the second class
| After careful examination of the publ
cation, am of the opinion that it is of al
| indecent character, hence il is forbidden
circulation in the mails by the act ap
/ proved Sept. g. 1855" A subsequent ap
| plicarion from New York publishing
house was rejected under this decision
| A Storm of Protests
| The above action of the postoffice de
| partment has caused storm of protest
60 pour in. The decision also caused tn
book to become the subject of genera
conversation and the Office of the post
| master general has been besieged wit
callers anxious to know on what ground
| and under what circumstances the dec
sion was made. Nobody knows how mucl
consideration these officials gave the mat
ter beyond the statement of Judge Tyne
that he carefully considered it. Third Al
sistsnt Hazen had no opinion to expires
and knows nothing about the character @
the book itself Postmaster General Wan
amaker has not yet had time to look int
the question, but promises TO do so. 1t
not at all unlikely that when an invest
cation OF the matter is had the decisio
may be reversed.
