vivsd To-Day
A large amount of local legislation
passed the two Houses of the General
Assembly to-day. The Senate devoted
some time in hearing the vote on the
game warden bill, which provides for a
more strict enforcement the law for pro-
tecting game. Senator Wilkinson spoke
on the bill TO some length.
The Senate received a message from
the Executive, which included several
appointments for justices of the peace,
In the House two orders were intro
duced that caused some discussion. One
was to the effect that each delegate be
furnished with $500 worth of postage
stamps.
Delegate Jones, of Anne Arundel. said
that each Senator had been given S25. 90
i'm stamps, and it would be reflection
upon the members of the House if they
were not given the same amount.
Delegate Chesley claimed the mem
hers were elected for two years and the
stamps would be used during this period
in political correspondence. The order
passed.
Delegate Markell moved that the vote
be recOnsidered by which the order was
defeated to furnish each delegate with a
fountain pen. The motion was voted
down.
An order was offered authorizing the
State librarian to furnish every employe
Of the House with stationery to the
amount of $4,000 or its equiv0lelt.
Several members stated that they were
opposed to things being done in such an
indirect way, and If the House wished
to give each employe $1,000 in addition
10 their regular per diem, they should
mike the order read that way.
Delegate Chesley. of st. Mary's, said
the Senate hadset the example and what
was ''sauce for the goose WAS sauce fer
the gander." The order was passed by
vote of 62 to S.

.Ian,tor. and sohooI nnlldings

An agitation has been started against
the residence Of janitors and their fami
lies in school buildings. 1t is said that,
like most poor people, school janitors are
usually blessed, or otherwise, with large
families of children. and these children
have most determined way or contract
ing measles, whooping cough, chicken
pOx and all the contagion going. The
result is that whatever the janit0r Is chill
dren take the whole school takes. For
this reason aud others it is recommend
ed by some sanitary authorities that the
time hon0red practice of having the
janitor live in the schoolh0use be dis
continued. This has been the case on
several occasions with the school build
ing of this city, and it is TO be hoped un-
der the new order Of things this change
will be made.

Clerk Biays Resigns-The New Treasurer
Takes Charge.
Gen. Thomas j. Shryock took posses
sion of the State treasurer Office yes
terday. Along with him came Mr.. How
ard Orem, who is designed for place
in the treasury. Mr.. Orem was for
some years the cashier of the South Bal
timore Savings Institution and is highly
indorSed by bank officers and others as a
competent accountant. Treasurer Shry-
ock says he does not contemplate max
ing clean sweep OF the Office, but be eX-
poets to have in Mr.. Orem an Efficient
assistant. NOr does he contemplate run
ming the office on political or personal
lines. He considers that the State treas
ury is like a banking institution, where
efficiency, as he may judge OF II, will de-
termine the status of individual em-
plOyees.
There are only three subordinates in
the treasurer's Ofiice-the bo0kkeeper,
MIR. Robert Bowie, and two clerks, Messrs
John z. Bayliss and James Z. Bays.
Mr. Orem has taken the place of Mr..
Bays, who resigned yesterday before the
induction of Mr.. Orem. 1t Is for the
future to determine the desirability and
the fitness of the individuals for the
places to which they will be permanent
iy assigned under the new administra-
tiOn. Mr.. Bowie will remain III the of

Labor statlstloLan Appointed d

Governor Lowndes yesterday after
noon sent to the Senate the name of
Charles II. Myers to be chief of the bu-
reau of labor statistics III place of Allen
B. Howard. The name of Mr.. David
F. Orr was first sent down and with
drawn at the request of his sponsor,
Senator neutrality-suspicious. with the
consent of Mr.. Orr or not is uncertain.
The appointment of Mr.. Myers will
bring to an issue the contentious rs to
the power of the Governor to make APP
pointments after the expiration of the
fifty days limit. President Bruce is in
clined to think the appointing power is
limited, and if this view is sustained the
effect will be to continue Mr.. Howard in
office as holdover. unless the case is de-
cided otherwise in the courts. Mr.. My
ers is one of five persons suggested for
the Office of labor statisticiau by the Fed
eratiOns of labor. He is a republican.

A GALE THAT MET A eALE.

Ambitious youths
With pride so high
They do not fear
The sea or sky
Put forth one day
In a boat quite staunch
That goes by the name
OF Naphtha launch.
With heads so hot
And hearts so bold
They do not mind
What they are told
And sails across
The Chesapeake deep
For they resolve
Their minds TO keep.
The wind-tne waves
Were strong indeed
And tried their hest
The fish to feed.
They filled the boat
With water wet
And scared those sailors
You may bet
Vain it seemed
Their cry for help
1t seemed to echo
Help yourself.
AT last they see
When hope is gone
A ship approaching
Through the storm.
1t sees and stops
And hauls them out
OF what has proved
A round-a-bout.
Safe at last
We give our thanks
That they are left
To fill our ranks.
MORAL:
Let wiser heads my friends decide,
The time TO fight the wind and tide.
