The senate concurrent resolution ex
tending the time for the consideration OF
appropriation bills from 10 o'clock noon
today TO o'clock was called up and
adopted. A house resolution by MIR.

After this view was finished another
picture was taken with Mr.. Cannon in

A resolution giving A. G. Jorda n, SER
geant-at arms, 800 extra pay for services
during the session was adopted.
Another resolution to give the assistant
sergeants- at arms ten days extra pay
started a hot discussion between Mr..
Miller of Morris and Mr.. Benetiel.
Mr.. Benefel spoke in favor of the
resolution. Mr.. Miller then replied in
an earnest aud impassioned speech de-
nouncing the attempt of some to plunge
their hands into the treasury at the last
hour He for one was disgusted with
members who were willing to do such a
thing. If it was done he intended that
the people should know the ones who
got the money.
Mr.. Benefiel replied that the gentle
man from Morris, in all his kicking, had
never said anything against an approp-
.iation when one of his friends was con-
cerned
This made Mr.. Miller very angry and
he replied that any insinuation against
his sincerity was false.
The discussion was getting too per-
sonaI and Mr.. Brown of Crawford moved
to lay the resolution on the table, whic h
prevailed.
Mr.. Beekman said it would be a good
thing to take a recess or the house would
bankrupt the treasury,
Before the recess was taken Mr.. Cole
of Barton recited Missing" and Colum.

Mr.. Cubbison was called for and gave

 his brothers wife, here to-day, because she pburatded him for his wild ways and his failure to pay his board JandaI
 then shot himself, probably fatally.
 According to the story told by Willianl Janda, the murdered woman's husband. Charles was wild and stubborn and had
 been cause of trouble to him and to his wife for months past Rather than be troubled longer they told him he would have to leave. He left with threats of revenge.
 William Janda went out this morning. to avoid a possible visit from his broth- CT, who had threatened to shoot him yesterday on Broadway. While he was away his wifes father and brother call- ed to bring Easter gifts. They found Charles Janda there quarreling violent ly with his sister-in-law. Shortly after Il o'clock Charles went out and the two other men followed soon afterwards to find William and tell him he might re- turn to his home without fear of trou- ble. They missed him, however, and he arrived at the house a few minutes after they had left 1t. Charles returned soon and tried to renew his quarrel with his sister-in-law. He demanded his clothing, which she refused to give him until he had paid for his board. Charles then demanded a clean shirt and Mrs. Janda went into a. little room to get it. Charles followed her.
 Mrs. Janda had just turned to give him the shirt when Charles drew re- volver and fired. The bullet pierced her heart and she fell dead. Charles then sent bullet into his own brain. He was removed to a. hospital, where he died.

If the water flows through 1t will cause much damage A telegram from Woodsville hays boom of loge there, owned by the Falmouth Paper company, gave way. Efforts were made to string a boom here to stop the logs, but nothing could stem the tide. Some logs are now passing. Many highways are covered with water, making travelling impossi- ble in some places.
 Randolyh, Vt., April 14.-Al the brooks on the mountain are pouring down in torrents. The water is the high est since 1869. Tn the White River branch it has risen a foot in an hour since Il o'clock and farmers living near by have moved.
 George l.. Spears log boom at Brain tree has gone our and has lodged against the rion railroad bridge. The machin- cry has been moved from Spears saw mill, which is expected to be destroyed. A large railroad bridge above this Vil-
 
 lage will be washed out if the water continues to rise. A boom at Gaysville, containing four million feet of logs, has gone out At Blue Hill, below Behel, earth slid on the railroad to the depth of six feet. The water has washed out the track near the state fish hatchery and at Spaulding's mill below Rox- bury All trains are discontinued to- night.
 Rutland, Vt, April 14.-Otter Creek and its mountain tributaries are rising rapidly and threatening serious damage to bridges, highways, railroads and buildings should the water continue to rise as rapidly as 1t has done. The creek is already as high as at any time during the past week. Between 10 and 11:40 to-day a rise of seventeen inches was noted and from noon until 1;SO o'clock there was further rise of near ly two feet. Men of experinece say that the rise has been the most rapid in years and fear serious consequences if the rain continues tomorrow The tracks in Wal1ingford and Mlddlebury are flooded and trains are delayed.
