SHE SMOKED CIGARETTES.
Sad Case of Maud Anthony Who Was Be-
fore the Court To-Day.

There was sad case in the Sixth Dis
trict Court this morning and one that
was not generally known to those pres
ent. IT was the case of pretty little
Maud Anthony, who was charged with
being a truant. She was not more than
~ years old, had very pleasant face,
and abundance OF Dark brown hair, was
well dressed, and had all of the appear
ances of being the member OF good fam
lily, and such is the case When the little
ones name was called by Judge Sweet
land she cried and sobbed as II her heart
would break and one could see there was
pbthing vicious about the girl. IL was
afterwards learned that Maud had for
some time been in the sbit Of smok ing
cigarettes and the habit has grown upon
the child to such an extent that the off,
cials are of the opinion that her little
brain liz affected.
Gilbert f.. Whittemore, the truant
officer, says that the legislature should
take some action on this psrniclous habit
and see TO 1t that no child is allowed to
smoke cigarettes under any circumstances.
If law to that effect is passed II can be
enforced at n cost which will not exceed
$500 year.

Prolonged Session of the
House of Commons.
Several Members Named by
Speaker Are Suspended.
The Struggle Grew Out Of the Ag-
ricultural Rates Bill

LONDON, May 22.-At noon today the
House of'Commons was still in session,
and has been sitting 21 hours, with the
prospect OF further. WEAKNESS for the
members.
The deadlock began yesterday, after
the discussion Of tine agricultural rating
bill, providing for the reduction OF rates
on agricultural land. The House was IN
committee of the whole from O'Clock
yesterday afternoon, and at 3 O'Clock this
morning the closing was moved. But
several mem bers refused to enter the
division lobby, whereupon the Speaker,
MIR. William Court Gully, was summoned,
and he named Mr.. John Dillon, the anti
Parnellite leader. Or. Tanner, Mr.. Donald
Sullivan, Mr.. David Lloyd-George and
MIR. John Herbert Lewis, the latter two
being Welsh members, for disobeying the
chair.
The Conservative leader, Mr.. Arthur j.
Balfour, first lord OF the treasury, then
moved the suspension OF the mentors
names and the motion was carried by q
vote OF 209 TO 5S.
Michael Davitt and Daniel MacAlese,
members for South Mayo and North'Mon-
Afghan respectively, persisted IN remain
ing in the house during the division,
wbereupon the sergeant-at-arms was sum-
moned by thre speaker TO remove them.
This was done in the usual formal man
ner. Messrs. Davitt and MacAlese re-
pudiating any intention to show disre-
spect for the chair.
Sir William Vernon Harcourt, the lib
eral leader, thereupon moved TO adjourn
the debate, claiming the house was not
in a fit condition to continue the dis
cussion; but the speaker declined to ac-
cept the motion and the discussion was
continued
Mr.. Balfour said the government pro-
posed to continue the sitting until the
bill was completed.
The Secretary of State for the Colonies,
MIR. Joseph Chamberlain, Mr. Baliour,
the under-secretary of the foreign office,
Mr.. George N. Curseon, ana the secretary
of State for India, Lord George Hampton,
occupied the treasury bench all night
long. In the evening dress they had worn
the previous night.
Throughout the night suppers were In
progress in the coffee room, and from the
fact that 1000 eggs alone were consumed,
1t may be judged that he appetites OF
the mem hers were sharpened considerably
by their stay in the House.
At ) O'Clock this morning the manager
OF the coffee room made a sortie and sue
ceeded in pure chasing the entire contents
OF fish store, located in the neighbor'
hood OF the House.

PAY CUT DOWN.
Enrollcrs for Poll Tax Will Get Only )
Cents Name This Year.

Yesterday afternoon between go and 20
men received their credentials from the
board of assessors in the city hall for the
position of enrollers. 4 nese "enrollers are
the men who go from door to door taking
the names of all persons In the houses,
their age, place of birth, whether natur-
allied or not, whether they own real or
personal property, and II so, how much,
etc. This work furnishes the basis tor
the poll tax levy, and begins the first Gay
of June ana ends the last day OF that
month. These positions have been looked
upon by those who have been fortunate
enough tc secure them as fat jobs, or, in
other words, was just like picking up
anywhere from s75 to fps for the month,
for the enrollers have been in the habit
of getting cents for each name taken,
and a smart man could enroll at least l0J
names a day.
This morning the go or 20 men were
somewhat surprised when they received a
communication from the assessors stating
that, in the future, the price. for enrolling
would be cents per name, instead of 5
cents. Some of the enrollers think of
throwing up the job, as they regard a cut
of 40 per cent. Is trifie too much.
