WHO STOLE that BILL.
The Deputy Salary Bin MysteriOusly
Disappears.

O1sAPpS0Ie
The Carson Appeal says there was
considerable excitement in the Capital
Tuesday over the mysterious disappear
ance of Assembly Bill "a, which re-
duced the salary of the State deputies.
The history of the bill shows that
Assistant Clerk Pratt delivered the
bill to Mr.. Foster, Chairman of the
Enrolling Committee, on Sunday last
in the morning. The original bill had
six amendments attached as riders.
On Monday Mr.. Foster reported
that bills 70, "a, 107, 81, Sc, 81, 80,
SO, SO and 101 had been enrolled and
transmitted to the Governor.
The Governors Private Secretary
has book in which he makes min
ute of the bills which reach his office,
and A. B. n does not appear on this
book.
The Governor and Secretary are
positive the bill never reached the Of
flee.
Miss Lyons and Miss Stearns en-
rolled the Assembly bills, but both
ladies are willing to make affidavit that
they did not enroll the bill in question.
Miss Lyons did not work at all on Sun
day.
Mr.. Foster says that he received the
bills from Mr.. Pratt in a bunch OF
nine and passed them over to the enroll
ing clerks. He supposed that they
were all enrolled, but cannot recollect
that particular one.
Mr.. Foster is an honorable man, te
whom no suspicion is attached in the
matter.
It was also discovered that the min
utes which recorded the history of the
bill has also disappeared; they had al
ready been copied, however.
The probable solution of the matter
is that after the bills were left with the
enrolling clerks some one slipped in
and distracted the one in question.
The Clerks enrolled the eight bills and
Mr.. Foster when he received the bunch
did not count them and reported the
entire list enrolled.
It is most probable that the bill was
stolen from the Enrolling Clerk room
and that the man who did it got paid
for his work. Suspicion is attached tc
one man who is regarded as up to that
sort of business, but the proofs so far
are very meagre. The matter should
BIO thoroughly investigated and if found
the culprit should be made an example
of. The loss of the bill does not bene-
fit any one as the appropriation for
deputy salaries was reduced to accord
with the bill.
Assembly bill No. " will not be-
come law. It was enrolled and tax
en- to Speaker Bell for his signature,
but he declined unless the enrolled bill
stated that it was copy of the original
bill.
Lieutenant Governor Poujade declin-
! ed to sign it under any circumstances.
| The bill cannot become law and
the deputies get their old salaries.

ARMY NOTES OF INTEREST.

Students from the school OF Esculapus who aspire
10 wear the blue and gold that distinguishes an Of
ncer OF the Army, In the front OF the enemy In the
garrison on dress parade, or at the Old Guard re-
cep0ns, will soon have an opportunity to appear be-
fore the board OF inquisltiOn to meet I'm this city
In n few weeks TO examine car dldaes for the ten
vacancies In the grade Of assistant surgeons. The
Surgeon General has Just issued the circular Of in
formation for candidates and sent TO the board the
list OF questions TO be asked OF the candidates. through
which their knowledge Of how to heal the sick and
bind up the wounds OF the afflicted will be tested
| the difference between morphine and quinine; the
difference between the spatula and brOadswOrd or
n scalprum and a scimitar: how they would treat a
guns wound, made by 1OOpOund solid
shot, etc. Undoubtedly many Of the students who
In their senior year at the medical colleges would
be glad II the examinations could be postponed until
they have been graduated but military law takes
effect Immediately upon Its PRONUNCIATION; hence the
examinations must not be posi- poned. There are. no
doubt, scores who Will appear for examination who
have not yet been fortunate enough to build mp a
large practice. and they win be glad TO strive for
privilege OF wearing the uniform OF first lieutenant.
Five years from the date OF their commissions as
sstant surgeons receive the pay OF captain.
81 800 n wear. and thereafter 10 cent Increase
for each five years Of service until maximum OF
40 per cent Is reached. with the probability OF pro-
motion to higher grades before the twenty wears have
ended. In addition 10 the pay there are allowances
for quarters etc.
The amendment made In the Senate TO the Army
Appropriation bill reducing the number OF paymasters
from twenty-five to twenty did not prevail with the
senate Committee on Appropriations. and the number
remains as fixed bv previous law. II Is now
probable that President Harrison will send I'm
nominations to I'LL the two vacancies In the pay CORPS
and one Of the nominations is likely to be captain

Bernard classes. The Westminster kennel Cub oher'
ca sh prizes for the best rOughcoated ana snOocoaeu
dogs and bitches in the challenge, open, puppy ana

The finest exhibits will probably be from W. t. ReichS

the famous Sir Befverc Is the most prominent entry

well won third prize in the class for open dogs.
The exhibits from the Swiss Mountain Kennels, OF
Philadelphia, and C. T. Barney, OF New-fork, VIII

BY far the best exhibit of boodhoundshose fierce

Will be spent In preparing the building and animals
for the exhibition. The show opens at o O'Clock
Tuesday morning. and will be kept open from that
hour til IL O'Clock each day thereafter until
saturday, when general evacuation will take

entries, while Hampstead Farm will show its famous
hound Mica. John +. Thayer Of Lancaster, Mass,

probably carry of most Of the prizes for that breed
The Dunrobn Kennels have also two fine dogs entered
in this class.
Lovers of the little and active greyhounds will have
an excellent opportunity to great variety of their
favori,e dogs. The Woodhaven Kennels have entered
three strong candidates for high honos, including the
famous Lord Neverstll while Horatio Nelson has
tered two Of his dogs. Arthur W. Purbeck, OF Saem
Mass will probably show the best greyhounds in the
exhibition, his entries including three famous English
dogs, Gem OF the Season, who first
lin the challenge class last year; OrnatIs
and Lilly of Gainsboro' who has never before
been shown In this country. lie will also show Wild
Rose and Southern Beauty. Mr.. Purbcck's exhibit 1t
is thought will prove the best Of the show this year.
Those far from handsome, but thoroughly English"
dogs, the foxhounds are divided into two general
classes for those of the American and English breeds
respectively. In the former class the chief exhibitor
will be DIR. II. T. Thurber, OF Baltimore. who has
entered four dogs. In the competition for those OF
the English variety there packs from the kennels
