The BETTER Way.

cart, was much annoyed by ''Mordecal at

urchin, whose shanty lie had to pass daily
on his way to the village, and who ieered at

Of a born gamin. The owner OF the little
turnout was simply made miserable by the
persecution, especially as it afforded grea!
delight to a number Of the smaller roughs
,f the neiglborhood. II would thrasl,
him. said the child to his mother, "but l
nm afraid Jack Che pony would run
away" II will tell you much better
way suggested the mother, and after some
persuasion. she induced the boy to try her
plan. The next morning. as usual, the en-
amy was waiting tor his victim. 'Hi!'' be-
gan the urchin: II s'posc you think that
things hoss!'' no" said the little boy,
with nod and a bright little smile, :'bnt
&c is very good pony; won't you get il.
and try hin,?" The small rough came u,
and pattcd the little animal. '.He is nice
little feller." he admitted in shamefaced
yay; and in a second the boys were bowl

SENATE


The principal thing done by the senate
yesterday was to defeat Senator Donnelly's
bill submitting to vote of the people a
constitutional amendment relating to rail-
roads and warehouses. The fight in favor
OF the bill was waged by Senator Donnelly
after his usual methods. He argued and
pleaded and threatened in turn. But his
efforts were without avail. for when the
final vote was taken the measure only re-
ceived 10 votes in its favor, while there
were q against it, with six absentees. Sen.
stor Tawney led the opposition to the bill,
ant he was ably seconded by Senators
Mayo and Leavitt

occupancy.

or electric motor line between that city and

Mr. Feig moved to reconsider the vote on
the resolution to reimburse the parties in
the election contest ases and asked that
the original resolution be sent to the COM
mittee on claims. To this the house agreed
and the resolution was so referred.
Mr.. Penney's bill relating to executions
under the law. and providing that they
all take place in the state prison, was called
up. This bill was de:eated yesterday be-
cause of there not being enough votes in
the house to carry it, and to-day there be-
ing large house, it was carried without
any trouble.

The house by an almost unanimous vote
ordered s. 600 copies Of the report of the
special prison investigating committee to
be printed.
The house went into committee of the
whole, with MIR. Greer of Wabasha IN the
chair. but even in committee the general
stagnation which pervaded the whole
days business crept in and but little of in
terest transpired. H. F. 1O15. authorizing
the state agricultural society to make
lease with the Twin City Jockey club for
the club house and grounds on the state
fair grounds, went through alter some
questions had been asked, but H. F. 65S,
bill relating to the foreclosure of chattel
mortgages, was not so fortunate.
The Worlds fair appropriation bill also
went over: as the attendance was not large
enough to pass any appropriation bill.
Mr.. Gallagher's bill reapportioning one
of the Hennepin county senatorial DIS
tricts was recommended to pass and several
before the committee rose and the house
adjourned.

PAYMENT STOPPED.

INDIANAPOLIS, Ind, March SO.-Gov.
Hovey is in receipt of a telegram
from Secretary Foster stating that pay

direct tax money, had been stopped
pending an investigation of the
discovery that some $4,000 of the
money had already been paid to the
state during Gov. Gray's administrac.
ton. The governor thinks that the
secretary is mistaken, as the money re-
ferred to was returned under the

chamber they did not have an improved
appearance by the succeeding morning
The senators present gave unmistakable
signs that they would heartily support the
resolution, and the janitors will doubtless
act upon the hint.
The senate entered upon reports of COM
mittees and the passage of local bills.
Among the first measures passed was the
Duluth annexation compromise bill, which
had already passed the house There is now
needed only the governors signature to the
measure to end the fight over this question.
The senate judiciary committee reported
back a substitute for the various bills de-
signed to prevent corruption OF elections.
About 1880 o'clock the senate went into
committee of the whole to consider general
orders, with Senator March in the chair.

ing to roads and bridges. Senator Kellers

SILVER COINAGE.

No Moro Dollars to BE Made by the Mint
After July Next.
WASHINGTON, March 80. Director Of
the Mint Leach said that after July next
it was probable no more silver dollars
would be coined. but silver certificates
printed instead. Congress had given the
secretary of the treasury the power to
recon about s., SOC, 900 of the subsidiary
coin now in the treasury, and that too
would probably he done as soon as
possible after the beginning of the next
fiscal year. This will in effect put
just so much more money in circula-
ton. There are also about 81, 900, 900
silver dollars in the treasury against
which silver certificates can be issued
