 Broadly Amended.

It Was Progressed at Albany After Being
 Broadly Amended.
 ALBANY, April q What was designed to bo worry tame, businesslike session in the assembly started in q contrary manner by the launching of tho AinSworth anti nudity bill and a Crn>O lucnt discussion. No sooner had the clerk announced the bill than there was an amendment offered by Mir. Friday cNompting from tho bill s provision all entertainments whore histo- riCal custuluing, hailCtS or oporatic per formanceS wcro concerned.
 Mir. AiuswOrth slid that he hoped that no such amendments would prevail. The bill was designed 10 protect tEC morals of the community Gud hinder any display that was in any way indecent No man would stand mp and justify such exhibi- tiOns as hnVC caused tho introduction of the bill Tho bill was demanded hy eV- cry decent citizen in the stato and nn man who was a lover of tlr land and tho peo- pie would CTpOsc it or amend it Mr. Fuley moved tu strike out thC enact ing clause and said that tho bi.l was entirely too drastic
 Dr. Bush hoped no such lnutiOn would prevail. For the protection of the home and everything in the home that was pure and decent the bill should bc passed.
 Mir. AinSworth said Why. Mir. Speak CT, these destroycrs of morals and all that is decent have oven sent their pernicious literature into the female academies and schools of this statn There is nothing in this that will stop decent exhibitions, and no theatrical nAuaSor has protested against II.
 MT. Foley-l don't believe that the art views of the femalo form arC so very dctri- mental to nnybOdys morals. It is rather the acting and conversation In indecent lines.
 Mir. Armstrong-I am in favor of the principle of the bill. but l am also for the amendment for l believe that tho line should be drawn ill tho bill and not left 50 ambiguous that art sales, exhibitions, etc. shall be prohibited.
 Mir AinSworth-I contend that therC arc great differences in productions. and that nobody shall say that a represonta tion of tho Crock slave or Cleopatra is in decent, but that fully clothed figure do ing Cairo street dance is indecent Mir. Stanchtlcld contendod that the law was so broad that any protluution dunouuc ed by crank could bo adJudgod inCocUnt and ho believed that tho line should bt ] drawn.
 Mir. Ainsworth said, This bill is not l deSi gucd to say how people shall be cloth 1 Cd, but to say that they shall not bo un 1 clothcd t'ridays amendment wa, 1 adopted by n decisive Vote. Tho bill A' amended WAS ordered printed for passage Tho bill to mako l4inculn'S birthday legal holidAy-Fch. l2-was also passed.

The COlOra of Animals.

The colors which adorn animals are
distributed in a very strange and ap-
parently capricious way. These colors
are believed to depend In great part on
the minute sculpturing, reticulation
and scoring Of the surface and not from
definite coloring matter like those pres
ent in plants. The metallic colors Of
the humming bird and peacock are at
tributed, in the main, to what scientific
observers call the "optical structure Of
the web Of the feathers" These they
describe as interference colors," re-
lieved against a dark background,
which owes its blackness to q black or
brown pigment.
Instances, however, do occur in which
an actual pigment or coloring matter
exists in colored feathers, and may be
extracted from them. Among the Tou-
races or plantain eaters of Africa there
are reported as many as eleven species
which owe their splendid crimson col
orations to q definite pigment. This
pigment, which is remarkable in many
ways, Is found to contain as an essential
ingredient no less than eight per cent
Of metallic copper. Several other col
oring matters, soluble In alcohol and
soda solution, have been extracted from
the plumage of other birds. 1t Is said
that as rule these pigments are much
more permanent than those Of flowers

lie turned out a complete fasco. After
the first engagement the rebels scattered
and some time later Wilcox, Molem, But
tlemen and others of the leaders Of the
instruction were captured and are now
on trial for treason by court-martial.
Shortly after their capture the ex-queen
was arrested and her house searched and
stores of arms and dynamite bombs were
found. Order in the islands was com.
pletely restored. In addition to the arms
found in the queens house large guam
tity imported for the use of the rebels has
been seized.
News of the arrest of ex-Queen Lii
uokalani caused surprise at the State De-
partment in Washington. The officials
decline to discuss the matter. 1t Is known,
however, that they believe she is likely
to forfeit oil property and be exiled. There
have been no suggestions that this Gov
eminent interfere in her behalf. It is ex-
pected the queens friends will make
diplomatic representation to Great Brit
ain and the United States to secure her
release.
