Y. Nj. O. A. NOTES.

The religious work committee met
last night and resume of their work
brought out the following facts:
Since January the total number at
tending the young mems rally for the
twelve Sundays was 1,123, or an average
attendance of ninety. three. This is
more than double the number OF at.
tendants at the old quarters. The
young mems meeting on Thursday even
ing has kept the same old average
OF eighteen. The training class OF
nineteen attend regularly and the relig
ious interest and work is increasing.
The gymnasium meet last night was
encouraging. About thirty young men
take the drills regularly.
The entertainment given by the
Young Mems Christian Asst citation on
Thursday night will be repeated this
evening. The programme will be
changed except where requests are made
for special numbers.
Mrs. Logan is most graceful follower
of Delsarte. She captivates her aud
fence from the first and holds their at
tention to the end of the programme, o
thing few elocutionists are capable of
doing. She is mistress of many styles
and her costumes are superb.
Mrs. James e. Porter is SO we'll known
that it seems like gliding refined gold
to speak of her.
Miss Bessie Logan comes to us bear
ing the highest recommendations from
Lord and Lady Landsdowne, Young
Prince Napoleon, the Countess de
Beaujen and Inez Csrugi, the American
muse of the harp. She proved herself
equal to them. Miss Logan is the first
harpist to visit Roanoke and the city
may consider itself favored in being
introduced to such sweet instrument
through such refined artist. The
entertainment begins promptly at $40.

ment of business men, and asked them
If it is reasonable to suppose that such
members as the honorable chairman OF
the judiciary committee would remain
in session longer than is necesSarybe-
cause OF the paltry pittance OF S5'a day.
There are million and half OF people
in Minnesota, he urged, and not one
tenth the soil under cultivation. He
employed this parallel to illustrate the
possibilities of the future, and to show
how foolish it is to abridge the oppor-
tunities for legislative work.
This brought Senator Keller to his
feet IN stirring and characteristic
speech. He said in emphatic terms
that the senate had been derelict in its
duties. For three weeks all that was
done was to meet and adjourn. More
over, he asserted that there is no public
demand for the number of measures
that are introduced. He adjured the
senators to be honest and only present
meritorious bills. He declared that
one-half the bills are mere "leg- pull
ers." All this was asserted to prove
that SiXty-day sessions are ample. He
didn't want to Sit so long for S5 day
and spend SIS Members are open to
all SORTS of temptations to part with
their money, and he enjoined his col.
leagues to act like business men and
work for the state as they would Wolk
for themselves.
Senator Stevens at this juncture
moved that the committee rise. He for
tilted his position with the declaration
that the senate is getting itself in a
bad way. He would like to adjourn
until O'Clock and then hold an after
noon session. The proposition struck a
responsive chord, and his suggestion
was acted upon after short debate.
The committee reported and the same
was adopted, and recess was had until

Vote.

The Oratopieal Flood Gates
Opened on a Variety Of
Measures.

The first measure of especial public
interest taken up by the senate yester-
day morning was the famous Dean pool
act Senator CaneStOrD moved a call
of the house as the bill came up for,
final reading and passage, despite the
absence of the author.
The roll call began without delay, and
Senator McHale was the first to explain
his vote. He bitterly opposed the princi-
pie Of legalizing gambling under the
preteXt of aiding fairs. He held that this
is the worst and most dangerous form
of the evil-conducted under the eyes
of the people where the public gathers
in large numbers.
81 vote no, most emphatlcally," said
he in stentOrlan tones"
Senator Mayo also explained his vote,
and an interesting dialogue between
these two gentlemen was only prevent
ed by an objection on point of order.
Mr.. Mayo scored the gentleman from
Scott uumercifully for voting for the
wheat option resolution. He stigma
tized it as an inIquitous system of
licensing rich men to gamble, while the
pool bill prohibits the poor man from
the privileges enjoyed by the rich.
However, despite Senator Sanborn's OBJ
jections. Senator McHale explained that
he had been charged with voting for
the option measure upon high moral
grounds. and upon this hypothesis those
who opposed him must have done so on
low moral grounds. SenatorJ. D. Smith
voted for the measure with regrets. He
was sorry the amendment setting aside
the law thirty days each year had been
tackled on, for he would scarcely haz-
ard that if the bill were tested in the
courts it would stand the test. The bill
passed on a vote of So to 5, as follows:

LESSER MEASURES.
Committee of the Whole Con.
tributes to the Calendar.


Senate file 16S. a measure of con-
siderable scope and Importance, came
before the committee of the whole, in
the senate. 1t is one of J. d. Smiths
anti-cruelty-animals bills. 1t provides
that no animal shall be overworked or
cruelty driven, etc., but the more i'm
portant feature is the portion forbid
ding the transportation of animals
save iIr racks or cars so constructed
that the ANIMALS may stand or lie down
at pleasure. 1t is we'll known, as was eX-
planned by the author, that cattle are
transported to slaughter houses in cars
so closely packed as to render lying
down physical impossibility. But
it was recommended to pass.
The committee went on from meas
ure to measure with unusual facility.
Senator O'Brien's three measures, SEN
ate Files 143, 144 and 145. were recon-
mended to pass. They all relate to
corporations, and are curative acts.
Senator j. d. Smiths Senate File 1853,
punlShing for cruelty TO animals, was
also recommended to pass, while Sena-
tor Glader's bill, reducing the number
of petitioners to tWo-thirds of the abut
ting property owners to secure the low
ering of lakes to the low water mark,
was referred to the committee on jul
dietary for amendment to prevent eX-
ceSSive drainage. Senator TaWney'S
bill relating to summons in justice
court was indefinitely postponed, and
Senator Daugherty'S bill, regulating
the period of existence of corporations,
was recommended to pass.
The committee rose. and the report
was adopted without dissenting voice.
Then ensued quite squabble over the
question of adjournment. There was
division of sentiment. Some wanted to
adjourn until 10 this morning; others
until Saturday at the same hour, to give
the members an opportunity to visit the
state prison, and there were others who
wanted to go home to consult their con-
stituents. The latter element contended
that it is impossible to keep in touch
with the people otherwise. A motion
to adjourn until Monday at 10 was lost,
as was a motion fixing the hour at II.
Then motion to adjourn till Saturday
at 10 was carried

farmers of the western section Of the
state, but it would be useless to the
farmers i'll the older counties, settled by
farmers who make good living, and
who pay their bills punctilliously. The
farmers IN the older counties, he con-
tended, have no interest in the Duluth
elevator scheme. The farmers in the
western part OF the state may be able to
ship in carload lots. or by train lots,
but in other parts of the state the
farmers are coutent with the no me
market. BY placing the money taken
from the pockets of the farmer as tolls
for wheat inspection into the internal
improvement fund, where 1t can be
used for good roads and bridges, the
farmers will derive direct benefit.
Senator J. d. Smith thought that sena-
torial ethics should give the author the
privilege he asked. He would. as a
rule, always favor allowing a bill to go
upon the general orders when the au-
thor seriously desires such course, and
let it be discussed in calm and dispas-
slonate manner. The motion was put
and carried, 2S to 12, sc the bill goes to
the committee of the whole.
