Were Exhibited at v. w. G. A. Cand,
Carnival Last Night.

A candy carnival was given in the
Young Womens Christian association
rooms last evening under the direction
of Miss Vernon.
Twenty-Five varieties of candy were
exhibited and sold. During the eve
ming practical lessons were given show
ing how the many varieties had been
made from one foundation called "Fou-
dant." The attendance was not large.
The recipe for "Foudant" was as fol-
lows:
Two cups of granulated sugar, one
cup of water, boil together without
stirring until it reaches the soft ball
stage. Test by dipping finger in ice
water and then into boiling mixture
and then into ice water. Put on a
ball. This can be put away and kept

The London Gaiety Girls are to be at
Davis theater for three days COM
mencing Monday, oct. 4. There is no
need of going to New York to see Cleo
de Merode wear her hair over her

the same thing, dances on her toes and

ears of the parents that their daughter
had sought shelter with Mrs. Gillon.
They went thither to seek her, but
failed to find her. Their visit height
ened their faith in the story that the
girl was at the Gillon home and they
proceeded to have her arrested in the
hope of making her disclose where the
girl is secreted.
Mrs. Gillon refused to give them any
satisfaction at the hearing, and was
held in $500 bail for further hear
ing,

excused and Judge Edwards applied
himself to work in chambers.
In the case of Isaac b Felts against
A. II. Fredel, the jury yesterday morn
ing made the following findings of fact;
AT the time of the notice to quit
there was not sufficient goods on prem
ises to cover exemption laws that the
rent due and in arrear April s, 1894,
from Friedel to Felts, was twelve dol
lars, and the rent due when Friedel
vacated the premises was $206."
From these findings Judge Edwards

The first vote in the above table was
taken on a motion to substitute the
House maximum freight bill for the
Senate bill which Governor Leedy We.
toed. Those voting yea voted as they
had promised the people. The text book,
stock yards, banking and county sal.
ary bills are we'll understood. ALI Pop.
ulists approve votes In their favor.
Several POpulist Senators voted against
the county salary bill, though, but for
good reasons. In their home county
or in counties of their district special
salary laws are in effect which make
the salaries less than those provided in
this bill. A vote for this bill on their
part would have been a vote to raise
local salaries at their homes. Senators
Armstrong, King, Jumper, House
holder and several others voted no for
this reason.
Interest bill.-This bill reduced the
legal and contract rate from 6 and 10
per cent. to 5 and per cent. The vote
was on a motion to strike out the en-.
acting clause, but the roll.call has been
resrranged so that those shown as vot-
ing yea favored the bill. Senator
Householder voted no in order to be in
position to move q reconsideration.
The bill to tax mortgages provided
that mortgages should be invalid un.
less they bore the Assessors stamp
showing that they were taxed. The
initiative and referendum resolution
received the necessary twO.thirds in
the Senate. Senator Harris resigned
before the text book bill, the stock
yards bill and the county salary bill
were voted on. Senators who are not
recorded as voting were absent or not
voting.

Some weeks ago the ADVOCATE as

In the political designation of mem
bers of the House in the following
table 1t should be noted that all who
are not marked r. or d. were elected by
2opulist votes. Those marked DIP.
are Democrats who are indebted to the
POpulists for their election.
In case a member is not marked as
voting either yea or nay, he wss ab-
sent or not voting.
The first vote given is on the ques
tiOn of passing the Senate railroad bill
over the Governors veto. Those VOt.
ing yea favored that bill, but those vOt.
ing nay were the men who wanted the
maximum freight law which had been
promised the people.
The Hackney amendment was given
In full in the issue of March 10. Its
adoption would have made the Senate
railroad bill of some value.
The county salary bill is the general
bill applying to salaries all over the
State. Several Representatives voted
nay because the bill raised the salaries
of officers in their counties. This was
the case In many counties where spe-
cial local bills had been passed two and
four years ago.
The fourth vote is on the question Of
resubmitting prohibition to a vote of
the people.
The vote on the text book bill and
the banking bill require no explana.

the people, aud votes In their favor are
