QUEER LEGISLATIVE FREAKS.

While great man people ii this
State are pokinP fun at some Of the
acts of the late legislature, it will be
seen from the following choice bricks
from the proceedings Of the legisla-
lures of several States that Nevsde's
law makers were above. the average
in good horse sense:
Kansas has not forgotten its pre-
eminence in freak shness. Bills we're
introduced at Topeka forbiddlng the
wearing OF corsets and boomers by
women, tining a man wearing skull
cap in a theater and taxing solvent
banks to reimburse depoPitors In
broken institutions.
Nebraska tried to make football
playing crime, but when the wear
ing Of long hair and whiskers was
proposed as evidence the bill received
an irretrievable setback.
Oklahoma endeavored to get
through a bill that would enable
citizens to do business without
money. Scrip was to be issued on
deposit of products and the scrip was
to pass as legal tender.
Missouri received bill to prevent
tram conductors and brakemen from
flirting with women passengers. But
this unwarrantable interference with
the rights of travellers was checked.
n Minnesota Senator tiled to pass
a bill requiring saloon keepers to
display red illuminated sligo of
Danger" 1t was thought, however,
that the Illuminated signs on the
faces of the customers would be
sufficient.
North Carolina had bill to invali-
date gold contracts, although North
Carolina has gold mines.
Indiana has been passing through
q mild deir1um One bill proposed
changing the ratio between the di-
ameter and circumference of a circle.
Other Hoosier legislators proposed
action against women who send
bouquets to iailbirds, requiring men
to remove their boots before entering
theatres. forbidding going out to see
Il man between the acts and requir.
ing all menus-by which the legisla-
tors meant bills of fare-to be printed
in English.
Theatre hat bills were rife every
where, as il the hat were the head
and front of all offending.
Even New York State put through
the Senate bill making punishable
the carrying Of "knockout Crops" q
preparation of chloral or morphine,
although tho bill made the physician
with his anaesthetic compound an
outlaw.
One lawmaker in Arkansas stands
out in bold contrast by his proposal
to make the interval between legls-
lative sessions four years instead of
one. But il fake Legislation continue
an annual legislature will be ueces-
sary to repeal the lunacies Of the year
before.

NO MORE FOOTBALL IN GEORGIA,
 Atlanta, Ga, Nov 1.-The killing of one University of Georgia football play CT and the serious injury 10 another in the game with Virginia last Saturday has aroused throughout the state de- mand for legislation prohibiting foot ball. A bill to this effect was introduce ed at the session of the legislature, and will probably pass this session
 Chancellor Boggs has announced that football must be abolished at the State university, and its team will probably disband at once. Newspapers in all parts of the state have come out against football and it seems certain that the game between Georgia and Virginia will go on record as the last ever played in this state.
