without and . rather depresHisg cain
within. which vas tee more apparent
after the nossy sxultztlons Of me de-
mocracy last week. The two halls Of
leglsiatlon were undissuFbed ali day.
save by the curious occasional visitor
and the ambitious legislator who stayed
over sunday as his dssk. scanning over
his pes measure. As evening ap-
preached the members dropped ia IN
paIrs and trios.
The following minor appointments
were announced on the convening OF
the Legislature this evening:
Secretary of the Senate Murphy an
nounced Justus q. Lawson, OF Monroe,
a. Senate bill clerk; also secretAry's 3
messenger, Frank Ransom, OF Grand
Rapids; senate pages-Mack SAckrider,
oceana, Fred Maginn, Genesee; julius
Brown, Wayne; Alex. Cohen, Wayne.
The two latter were Detroit neusboys.
Frank Ransom is son OF .. c. RAN
soIn. the Grand Rapids attorney.
La the House Clerk Brant appointed
Richard ID. Vail, OF Lapeer, As his mes
senger. Speaker Wachtel announced
G. K Palmer (colored), OF Grand
Rapids, as keeper of the House cloak
room.
Among the pilgrims to the Governors 3
sanctum today Was Wm. G. Hawkins, .
well known Grand Rapids asplrant Tor
the place of warden or the House OF
Correction at EonIa. It IS said 70 be his
first personal interview with Gov.
winans, though his friends have been
pushing his name ipdustriously. Gossip
says that Ex-sheritf Penneh, of St.
Johns, has the place assured, notwith.
standing the ardent advocacy OF A. j.
StebbinS name, backed by his own
presence here. Mr.. McArthur's back
ing by the Kent county Board of Super
yisors was too tardy TO cut figure In
the matter.
In his opening address to the Senate
Lieut.. Gov. Strong recommended the
present week as the best time for the
committees to make the annual junket
TO the State institutions, but from the
apathy of Senators IN this respect, it
does not look probable that there will be
an adjournment for that purpose this
week.
Gen. B. X. Pierce and Gen. I. C.
Smith were both here and IN consulta-
ton with the Governor today, presum-
ably on the subject OF the Soldiers
Home management
