rything is systematized and neatness

MANY STREETS OF TENTS.
The tents are arranged in streets, which
are designated by various appropriate
names. There is a headquarters tent,
with postoffice. signal station and writ
ing facilities; the reveille and retreat are
sounded and colors raised and lowered
in accordance with military usage. Reg
ular details made for the night and
day patrols, and complete little SOW
ereignty within the leased precincts of
the camp is exercised by the commodore
of the association.
Squaw Poin is invariably most at
tractive place at the meets. This is
the section set apart exclusively for the
use of the women canooZerS, who are
numbered by the hundred. No matter
where the meet is held, the women's
section is always called Squaw Point.
The same rules which govern the mascu-
line end of the camp prevail on the fem
mime side, but the tents on the latter
are much gayer, abounding with decora-
tions and an endless variety of things
which are totally absent across the bar
rier.
THE RACE PROGRAM.
Twenty odd races have been arranged
for at the coming meet. The most i'm
portant are padding and sailing COM

there are the various record and tro-

many classes and divisions.
The great race on the program is the
international affair in which some for

the open padding canoe, an improved

serviceable only in smooth water. They

TO REGULATE LEGISLATION.
senator RandaII's Bill Reported Favora-
bly, by the judiciary COmmittes.


The Senate judiciary committee has
made favorable report upon Mr.. Ran
dalPs bill restricting and regulating local
and special legislation. This is a most
important measure and if enacted will
probably remedy one of the greatest abus-
es connected with legislation in the State.
The statute books of the State are over
hurdeHed with special aud trivial laws,
put there only To he repealed at the next
session. They are all considered and as
rule are only passed upon by the single
Senator or the delegation from the cOur-
ty affected The time of the Legislature is
occupied with the matters to the pTelu-
dice of general and Important matters.
There is another class of legislation
which is also reached by Mr.. Randall's
bill, which, in the Judgment of cOnserva-
tive citizens. threatens and has already
POSSIBLY accomplished great damage to
The State. This is the great mass of legis-
lation amending or enlarging the powers
of corporations which have been formed
under the general Incorporation act, and
many Of which were presented to the
Legislature III order to eyade the gener-
al law or the constitution.
For three terms the files of the Legis-
lature have been overwhelmed with cleo
trio railroad charters, speculative and
otherwise, and it is feared that great
damage has already been done. Mr.
Randall's bill proposes to remedy this
10y requiring all such bills to be filed
with tie Secretary of the State for thir-
" days before their introduction, with
petitions for their enactment and eXpla-
natory papers, and with due provision
for publication. 1t is further provided
that where an emergency arises for the
prompt passage of bill, such as the
Hageistown election bill last week, it
can lie done upon a proper recommended
tion from the Governor of the State =
The bill is founded upon the report of a
New York commission to the LegiSla-
lure of the State made in 1895.

Low rids. and Low sprInrs.

The successive high northwest winds
of the past few days has driven all the
water out of the creeks and streams, and
made them so dry that one can cross OH
foot on the bottom OF these streams.
In many places fish have been left
floundering in holes, and bedded oysters
have been exposed OH the bottom of the
creeks. Not only this, but all springs
and wells contiguous TO these streams
have gone dry and farmers have been
compelled to 60 to their neighbOrs for
water. The well on the farm of Frank
Johnson, ON Broadwater Greek Herring
Bay in the Eighth dirtrlct, become SO
low that he could not get water enough
20 drink. Such a thing was new
er known before. Mr.. Robert Simmons
a farmer from that section, says he
never knew the tide so low before; that
many streams that were uaviga6le are
entirely dry, and can be fOarded with
cut getting the feet wet.
