Gibson is a Black Hawk veteran and the
memorial was referred TO the committee
on memorials of which he is chairman.

referred TO the rules committee. limiting

that the author of the pending measure

minutes to close. no otner member 10

Kenner probably intended the resolution
for general application, but as the con-
Guiding provision was read. he was seen
TO cast fierce look in the direction of
Sloan
ing for the appointment of a committee
consisting of three members of the house
and two members of the senate. 10 con-
slider the ACCESSIBILITY of visiting the state
institutions, was adopted.
FEMALE EMPLOYEES.
Mrs Cannon's bill for the protection of
women and girl employees was then taken
up. and Shepard offered an amendment
making its provisions apply to all en-
ployees in the places designated by the
bill A boy, he commended. mad as much
was as much entitled to rest as a
woman.
ROMNEY OPPOSES 1T.
Romney opposed the bill and thought
he could foresee disastrous consequences
to female employees. EmpIoyers would
find more work for them to do. so they
would be kept busy all of the time, and
find no opportunity to set down. When
not waiting on customers they would be
required to do something else. However.
he was not opposed TO the purposes of
the bill, and as an evidence of good faith
he subsequently voted for it.
O'Brien was advocating the bill when
Romney asked him whether he was an
employer.
Il am not. but 1 can readily under
stand that the gentleman is. from the
nature of his remarks" was the reply:
Mrs. LaBarthe very ably defended the
measure and feared Shepard's amend
ment might kill it. She was willing to
legislate in behalf of the boys, but really
believed it would be difficult to induce
them to sit down, when not employed
otherwise, even if stools were provided.
BILL PASSED.
After further debate Shepard's amend
ment was rejected, and the bill passed
by vote of q ayes. IS members being
absent. The bill was so amended by the
house committee as to provide for the
use of more than one chair or stool for all
the employees of an institution, as pro-
vided by the senate.
The house then, at 6 o'clock, adjourned.

Chairman Shepard of the house judi
c.ary committee gave notice on the floor
of the house that he would no longer
serve as chairman or as member OF
the committee and asked the speaker to
appoint his successor. Mr.. Shepard was
offended by the refusal of the house to
provide 2 competent clerk for This COM
rr:ttee. and declared that without such
assistance the committee could not prop
erly handle the vast amount of important
business referred to it.
The incident occurred during the mid
die of the afternoon session. Shepard
called up his motion. authorizing the
speaker to appoint a clerk for the
judiciary committee, which had been laid
over from a preceding day.

committee could see no necessity for such

UNJUST GENEROSITY.

1t appears that a government can be
too generous. At least it can be too
generous to suit those who do not profit
by it's generosity. The florists of
Washin gton are making an interesting
complaint. They say that the Depart
ment of Agriculture, instead of being
useful to them. is cruel competitor.
Instead of devoting its energies. green
houses and gardens to the propagation
of plants suitable for use in ornament
ing the parks, squares and streets of
the city. the department does little
more, the florists declare, than raise
enormous quantities of rare and expen-
sive flowers for gratuitous distribution
among the wives of senators, represen-
tatives and officials in general, while
other women with influence enough to
secure from these statesmen an order
on the nations garden get whatever Is
left. The result is that the private
growers of Washington are robbed of
practically all their profitable custom
ers, the class that in other cities sup
port the flower shops always going first,
ana usually with success, for what it
needs to the generous servants of Uncle
Sam The florists assert that the gifts
OF flowers go on all the year round, and
not only when congress is IN session.
For instance, in last October and No.
vember $4,000 chrysanthemums were
given away, though at that time every
politician was at home attending to
his fences. 1t appears. too, that this
work is Illegal. as well as a hardship.

An ENCOURAGING PROFESSOR.

Those who have ceased to kiss be-
cause of the dreadful microbes that
have their lairs on the lips of beauty
are having tough time of it, but they
are supported in trying hours by the
belief that in retaining from kissing
they are saving their valuable lives.
Perhaps they are but there are few
things certain in this world. except the
benefits Of .'one-man power" and those
who prefer to be sanitary rather than
sweet may possibly be wrong in their
notion of what is sanitary A profess
sor has arisen who says they are. His
name is Bridger and he may be a
bridger of the chasm between love and
duty. Anyhow he says kissing is all
right, just as it used to be before the
microbes were discovered. Starting out
with the declaration that all microbes
are not pestilential-that some Of them
are positively beneficial-he asserts that
kiss microbes have high value as a
tonic, that they may be exchanged not
only with impunity but with advantage
to the physical system, and that in
cases of dyspepsia they exercise re-
markable curative powers Therefore
Professor Bridger recommends judicious
kissing.
Professor Brdger is both interesting
and encouraging. and although he does
not yet appear to be endorsed by any
board of health his ideas will be apt to
find much acceptance with the common
people because they are agreeable, and
because many will remember that be-
fore they knew kissing was danger
Gus they found it tonic and good for
dyspepsia. But the professor should
explain just what he means by Judi
cous kissing Of course kissing that
is sanitary may not be judicious and
those who are willing to regulate their
kissing by the directions of scientists
will want to know just what the pro-
fessor means by 'judicious.

If it were not for presentiment Mo-
Fart would probably never have COM
posed his immortal Requiem" One
day, while he was sitting alone lost in
a melancholy reverie, a stranger en-
tered the room, and, laying handsome
sum of money on the table, requested
him to compose Requiem" in memo
ry of dear friend who had just died.
Mozart agreed to do so, and he began
work at once. Night and day he la
bored with extraordinary zeal, until
finally his strength gave way and he
become i'll. When his wife tried to
cheer him he said brusquely: IT'S no
use. I composed that Requiem for
myself and it will be played at my fun
eral." Nothing could rid his mind of
this idea. Nay, he was even convinced
that the stranger was visitor from the
other world who had come to warn him
of his approaching end. So he worked
at the Requiem" until it was finished,
but when the stranger came for it Mo-
Fart was dead.-New York Herald.

These waists are invariably finished
with a belt, below which, as rule,

much safer to have any bodice that is

STARE EXPENSES.

The statement from the committee to
investigate State expenses which we
publish this morning will make an i'm
preston. 1t shows, concisely and
clearly, that the State expenses are
much greater than they ought to be,
and that they have increased in recent
years much faster than they ought to.
The committee asks for suggestions or
information from anybody interested in
the subject. 1t will probably get some
suggestions and some information, and
in the end will be able to make report
that will show where expenses can be
cut down without injury to the public
business. Then will come the tug of
war between those who are profiting by
the unnecessary expenses and those
who are willing to cut them off. Ii

Rounding of United States Consul BY
Siamese Soldiers Is Said to
Be the Cause.

WASHINGTON, D. O., Jan. 16.-The
gunboat Machias left Canton for Bangkok,
Siam, this morning in obedience to cable
orders from Secretary Herbert ''to protect
American interests" The distance is
about 1000 miles, and the Machias should
reach her destination IN about week
The State Department declined to di-
vulge the character of the information
which it has received from BANGKOK
which causes the sudden dispatch Of
warship to the scene, but there is no
doubt that the attack on United States
Vice Consul Edward B. KelIert by Siam
csc soldiers is at the bottom of it. ~
Press dispatches three weeks ago an
nounced that Mr. Kellert, who is an IN
paid official appointed by Minister and
Consul General Barrett two years ago, had
been fred upon and wounded by Siamese
soldiers. 1t was impossible to confirm
this news at the State Department at the
time, but it was explained there that Mr..
KelIert had right to engage in trade, and
possibly some personal affair of his own
had led to his arrest by local authorities.
To-day it is learned that for some time
litigation has been IN progress over the
estate of an American named Cheek, who
held a valuable teak concession from the
Siamese Government.
This had been highly remunerative dur
ing Cheeks lifetime, but when after his
death it became advisable to wind up his
estate the Slamese Government stepped in
and took measures to prevent the sale of
number of elephants he had raised and
employed in getting out the timber.
II is also said that KelIert was the exec
utor of the estate or the agent of the
heirs, and his activity in their behalf had
probably led to friction with the Siamese
authorities, who overstepped the usual
legal methods in trying to get rid of him.
No American Warship has been to Bang
kok for about seven years, and while
Minister Barrett has been we'll received
there, the Siamese have not as much re-
spect for the American flag as for that of
either Great Britain or France.
