Thirtisth Day.

Senate-The bill abolishing capital
second reading.
The Reuter- bill, providing for the ap-
pointment Of commissioners for the
promotion of uniformity of legislation
in the United States, to serve without
pay, passed second reading.
A bill by Mr.. Bailey to cut out the
word exclusive" from paragraph IS.
section IA, being section 1912 of
chapter 119 of the general statutes was
considered also on the second reading.
That word is of some Importance in
this case. The old law gives the towns
the exclusive right to license saloons
and this, 1t was claimed, allowed these
places to remain open all the year
round throughout the state. It was
intended to bring them under the
state laws. Passed second reading.
The bill amending the law relating
to exemption Of workingmen's wages
from lien, was defeated.
House-The committee on state af-
fairs recommended that the Minor bill
providing for proportional representa-
ton, be laid on the table, as it was con-
sidered impracticable at this time.
After some discussion the bill passed
second reading, having been amended
as follows: Sedgwick, 2,25O; Logan,
S2,250; Phillips, $3,750; Yuma, $2,250;
Washington, $2,25O; Kit Carson, 49,.
$50; Arapahoe, $3,75O; Cheyenne, ST.

WITH many spinsters the subject of
matrimony is tender subject. There
are few of them who care to have the
fac. advertised that they are still in
the enjoyment of single blessedness.
With an old bachelor it is a matter Of
supreme Indifference as to whether or
not the world knows he is still heart
and fancy free. Why, then, should
the whimsical edicts of society so ar
range matters that the handle almost
universally applied to a mans name
should carry with 1t no possible hint
as to whether the wearer is married
or single, while the handle to a
woman'e name is forever advertising

THERE is nothing more remarkable
in the history of the colonization Of
Africa by European powers than the
foothold which Italy has gained on
that continent. To-day she has posses
sions extending hundreds of miles
along the Red sea and the Indian
ocean, besides exercising protec-
torate over Abyssinia. just as Great
Britain did in India she has formed
local fighting force of friendly ma
tives, but has also sent out contin-
gents OF her own, and is about to
send more to strengthen her military
operations In July last she gained de-
cisive victories and during this month
has not only defeated the Madhists,
but force of malcontent Abyssinians.
She has done much to break up the
slave trade in those regions, and this,
of itself, may be looked upon as a gain
to civilization.

Thirty-Fourth Day.

The Senate was not in session.
House@The House met in the fore
noon and passed bill to fix the legal
rate Of interest at 6 per cent. per an
mum when there is no agreement, and
to preven6Sa higher rate than 10 per
cent under any conditions. 1t was
amended to make the maximum rate
IL per cent. instead of 10.
A bill by Mr.. Rumble to prevent the
sale or manufacture of cigarettes was
adversely reported on by the Commit
tee on Medical Affairs, but the author
had the report set aside and the bill
will be considered at later date.
A bill to prohibit the employment Of
children in mines, which was recon-
mended laid on the table by the Com
mittee on Labor, was ordered printed
previous to its being considered.
A bill to require commission mer-
chants to give bonds when required by

phrey was made chairman of the meet
ing, and In honor of the occasion the
delegations from the outside were
efFeR-seats In the body Of the house,
members retiring in their favor. There
were two sides to the fight and the
contending delegations were lined up.
In opening the debate ex-Represent-
ative Booth stated that the plan OF the
division was to divide Ell Paso county
from north to south just west of Pixies
peak. He said an argument used
against the new county was that there
was a blanket objection to new coun-
ties. He said the proposed new county
cast 6,7OO votes at the last election,
and cited "a counties which had an
assessed valuation of less than $1,OOO,-
600, whereas the proposed new county
to be named Orc, paid taxes on $1,21O,-
600. The taxes for 1895 would be over
$2,4O0,OO0. 1t was gold camp, and so
not affected by the rise or fall of sill
yer. He argued the county would be
amply rich enough to support itself.
In Cripple Creek two petitions had
been sent out to the merchants, one
for and one against the division. The
result was 300 to Z in favor of the
division. Thirty-ive delegates brought
the petitions to the legislature, among
WuOlH IL Nclc lllCl SlluhtS.
w. s. Montgomery, as chairman OF
the opposing forces, spoke briefly. He
said the whole 800 merchants who had
signed the petition to divide the county
were all residents of Cripple Creek.
He contended that except for the town
Of Cripple Creek no one in Ell PaSo
county wanted the division.
A large number of others from
Ell Paso county spoke for or against
the proposal and the contest was hot.
A bill by Mr.. Malchus to prohibit the
collection of liquor bills and bill by
Mr.. Woodwork to prevent another
scandal in the printing of proposed con-
stitutional amendments by requiring
newspapers which receive such adver-
tisements to have been established one
year, passed third reading.
The Lowell bill to provide for the
submission of constitutional amend
ment to bond the state for $1,1OO,O0O,
to pay the outstanding warrants,
which has been on the calendar on sec
ond reading for several days, was on
motion of the author referred to the
Committee on Ways and Means.
The Holly bill to raise the age of con-
sent for women to 21 years, was read L
third time and now goes to the Senate
by A to IA votes.
Those voting against it were: Colt,
Garcia, Green man, Hollenbeck, jerks.
Lasell, Macomber, Ransom, Wallace,
Whittier and Woodwork.
The emergency clause which requires
a two-thirds vote, was defeated by 40
to II votes.
Mr.. Gallagher's bill to give miners a
lien on mining property for their
wages, passed third reading.
A bill by Mr.. Purington to prohibit
the truck system and to require corpor-
atoms to pay their employees in lawful
money at least once a month, was tax
en- up on second reading.
Some discussion followed on the
minimum penalty, which was finally
fixed at $25, and the bill passed second
reading.

A WRITER in an Eastern journal re.
calls the climatic changes which were
brought about in Europe by the de-
struction of the ancient forests that
once covered it from the Baltic sea to
Calabria. He argues that the climate
of North America is undergoing SINH
lar changes. and quotes from our me-
teorological records of the past ten
years to prove his statements. Our
summers are drier and longer, and
our winters wetter and warmer in
some sections. The summer rains are
scarcely sufficient to fill the pastures
and the ponds that were once well
watered, while long and hard frosts
are getting to be rarer than formerly,
the rivers that now freeze only on
the banks having been at one time
bridged with solid ice.

THE Boston children's h ospital was
unfortunate enough to be visited by
three outbreaks OF diphtheria last
year, SO serious indeed that applica-
tions for admissions had been refused.
Recently the disease again appeared
in the institution, and anti-toxine was
freely used. All the patients were
given an injection of the serum, and
further admissions were allowed on
condition that each child should be
treated upon entrance. The result
was that all the cases OF diphtheria
were cured, that no fresh cases have
occurred among the children, and that
there has been no need, as there was
before, to close the hospital. This ex-
perience, vouchsafed for by good med
ical authority, is strong testimony to
the value of the discovery.

Thirty Day,

Senate-In the Senate warm debate
ensued over the introduction Of me-
mortal attacking the government for
its attitude on the bond question and
toward silver, introduced by Senator
Carney, and the result of joint COM
mittee. This resolution contained the
language, "Whereas, we view with
alarm the attitude of the leaders Of
the older political parties in the present
crisis" The Populists wanted the res
olutions adopted, while the Republi-
cans objected to them on account of
the allusion to the colder" parties. Sen
ator Hartzell sounded the keynote of
the contention by declaring that Sena-
tors Teller and Wolcott were attacked
in the expression, while the Populists
claimed that they were not. The reso-
When the truck bill came up for dis
cry member present. This bill Is to
make 1t impossible for mining or other

ing on the same subject, was referred

ter and Drake.

gin suit against the counties that have

hibiting advertisements in any but
papers published in the English Ian
guage, was agreed to.

gard to Mr.. Gallagher's bill repeating
the act creating board of emigration
commissioners, which also passed Sec
ond reading.
Mr.. Stewart offered an amendment
which provided that when a mortgage
was foreclosed the purchase money
from the mortgage should be accepted
in lieu of the complete settlement Of
the original mortgage. This carried
and the bill passed second reading.
Mr.. Clarke, in charge of House bill
No. II, providing for means of sup
port for the institute for the mute and
blind, and a readjustment of the age
limitations of students, moved its IA
vorable recommendation. Mr.. Bales
moved to amend so as to read an in
stitute for "blind. deaf or mute citi-
zens." Agreed to. Mr.. Collais moved
to amend SO as to allow the admis-
sion of applicants from other states
on payment of certain fee. Agreed
to. Mr.. Clarke explained that the bill
was for revision of the statute by
which abuses might be corrected. 1t
was reported favorably.

u was favorably reported to the House
without debate.

among its members, was favorably re-
ported, after an amendment had car
ried, allowing for the choice of a Sec
retary either from or without the
board.

Thirty.Third Day,

Senate-A bill by Senator Johnson
against the truck system passed a sec
ond reading. 1t Is the same bill practi-
cally as passed the House yesterday.
Then another long discussion follow
ed on a joint memorial to Congress by
Senator Carney. 1t prayed for the
coinage of both gold and silver, and II
these were insufficient to provide cir
culating medium of $50 per capita, then
the government should issue treas
ury notes up to that amount
Senator Kennedy moved to strike out
the latter portion of the memorial as
pledging the Legislature to the green
back theory. The memorial was finally
defeated.
Senator Barela's bill to make corpo-
even IL it was the result of careless
ness Of other employees. No action was
taken.
With the receipt Of a communica-
ton from the governor to be considered
in executive session, the Senate ad-
journed until 10 o'clock Monday morn
ing. This morning the committee on
state institutions will visit Colorado
Springs to inspect the state properties
there. President Slocum Of the Colo
RADIO Springs university was In the
chamber during the afternoon, his In
stitution being interested In forthcoming
pending appropriations.
House-The bill by Mr.. Clarke to tax
church property and charitable institu-
tions was down for the third reading,
but 1t was found that, like a number
Of other bills, 1t was not properly en-
crossed, and it went over. Mrs. Holly
presented petition in its favor from
the people Of Pueblo.
On second reading a bill by Mr.. Low
ell to change the insurance laws by re-
quiring insurance companies to pay 2
per cent. of their gross receipts, instead
of the net proceeds, to the state, passed.

600 additional to the state treasury.
A bill by Mr.. Bales amending the
mortgage law by requiring foreclosure
in court and an appraisement of the
property, which was considered on
Wednesday, was taken up again on
second reading. At that time an
amendment was adopted to have the
receipts on foreclosures to be full set
tlement of the mortgage. After dis
cussion 1t was referred to the committee
on judiciary.
Two other bills of minor importance
were read a second time. One was by
Mr.. Minor to prevent judges and clerks
Of court from practicing law in any
court of the state. The other was by
Mr.. Tomkins to provide for the pay
ment of the interest, ETC., for property
sold in error on delinquent taxes.

Thirty.second Day.

Senate-The Senate's morning ses-
sion lasted no longer than the reading
of the minutes, an adjournment being
taken to give the Ell Paso county dele
cations an opportunity to address the
members. On adjournment the Senate
moved in a body over to the House,
where the morning was spent In this
manner.
The afternoon session of the Senate
opened by the committee on county
affairs recommending that the bill pro-
viding for the creation of the county
of Orc from the mining district Of
Cripple Creek be printed. The report
was adopted without discussion.
The committee on state affairs rec
commended that the bill to authorize
the board of capitol managers to lay
out, ornament and beautify the capi-
tol grounds be indefinitely postponed
for the reason that the state Is more
in need of funds for other purposes.
This prevailed without opposition.
Consideration Of the resolutions
against the Cleveland bond Issue,
which were discussed the previous day,
came next. Senator Carney introduced
the original and Senator Reuter- pre-.
sented a substitute as minority re-
port. Both were discussed until night
and then defeated.
House-The morning session In the
House, as in the Senate, was very
brief. Immediately upon the minutes
having been read recess was taken to
permit joint discussion on the divis-
ion Of Ell Paso county.
At this moment the Ell Paso forces
and members of the Senate filed In
and business was taken up by the COM
mittee on county lines, which had

regulating the issue of licenses in

that liquor license or prohibition elcc-
tion could be ordered by petition
from one-fourth of all the voters in the
entire district effected. At present q
petition could be drawn up by voters IN
a half mile of territory. This "half
mile" might be either half mile Of

ported Sours on the belief that Its pass
age would have much to do with the
annexation of Highlands to Denver.

vent the display Of foreign flags on

passed third reading.
The bill to abolish the system Of

A Man Who Could Make Money ~ .
Muaeum Freak.

A Man Who Gould Make Money - .
Museum Freak.
The Rambler met man the other
day who has been offered extraordi-
nary sums to place himself before the
public, but he has steadfastly refused,
and it is not at all probable that his
determination will ever be shaken.
He is in fairly comfortable circumstan-
ces, and 30 long as he has good health
he is reasonably certain Of an income
of from SIS, 900 to $4,000 in his busi-
ness as solicitor for q well-known life
insurance company. His name is
David Kensil, and his home is in Den
YER. He makes his living now by the
exercises of his powers OF argument
and persuasion, but If he should over
become s.freak" his face would be
his fortune.
So far as the Rambler knows, after
making long search, there is no
record of any case similar to Kensil's.
He possesses the remarkable faculty
of changing the lines and contour OF
his countenance at will, and to such
degree that he can actually make
himself unrecognlzable to his intimate
friends. In repose his face is of the
Napoleonic type = prominent as to
nose and chin and pronounced frontal
arch. When he so wills he can, by
the peculiar control he exerts over
his facial muscles, cause his face to
assume priestly roundness; his eyes
become prominent and round, instead
OF deep set; his chin to retreat, in
stead of to set forward; his nose to
broaden at the nostrils and his natur-
ally thin lips to become thick and
heavy. When he does this the crows
feet in the corners of his eyes disap-
pear, and the wrinkles leave his fore
head. His expression is chonged
absolutely. If you can bring before
your minds eye the round visage Of
Colonel Tom Ochiltree and the thin
and sharply outlined features of ex-
Senator Ingalls, you may form an idea
of how completely Mr.. Kensil can
alter his facial lines.
81 discovered my ability in this di-
rection," said this singular man to the
Rambler, "when was about l6 years
of age. am now 46. You have seen
men who can move their scalps. Well,
it was in trying to initiate a COM
panion who had that power l found l
could work certain muscles Of the face.
l cannot explain to you how | do it.
but it comes just as natural as opening
my mouth or closing my eyes. Ten
or twelve years ago l was pestered to
exhibit myself. but refused, and let it
be generally known among museum
managers that no sum of money could
tempt me to go before the public-and
l wouldn't Several physicians have
expressed a desire to examine me, but
l told them no. If happen to be in
jolly party / don't mind amusing
them, but / always decline to show
what can do before a parlor full Of
company. 1t seems too much like
making freak Of me-"

Inmates as ..Two-faced Dave"
