cisco, and substituted A. B. 741, which
was Of a similar nature.
1t was read the third time. Wolfe
made a strong plea for the bill, and
nearly all the Senators took occasion
to toss bouquets at the San Francisco
delegation, the result being that the
bill was passed by vote of 80 to O.
title approved.

1894 of Chapter 3, Title V OF the Po-

ton 360S of the Political Code, relat-
ing to the general revenue of the
State, and to property liable to taxa

read the second time.
Smith explained that it's purpose was
n mo olxn f.l -tC Csf<
tions taxable, sapd that it had been
recommended by the convention of
County Assessors held in Sacramento
last fall. Under the present system,
he said, shares of stock were non
assessable, and the intention Of the bill
was to change the nature of existing
things by making such stock assessable
at its actual value.
SeaWell also spoke for the BILL con-
tending that much property escaped
taxation under the existing state of
affairs.
Several other Senators spoke against
the bill
In conclusion, Smith stated that a
certain member of the Judiciary Com
mittee had openly and repeatedly in
suited him in regard to the bill, and
that a certain class of attorneys had
'ost no chance TO heap obloquy upon
the bill. He proposed to put the Sen
ate upon record and whatever was the
outcome, he would feel that he had
done his duty. One thing was certain;
he did not intend to allow any banker
or attorney to bulldoze him on the floor
of the Senate.
Wilmington said his supposed Smith
referred to him as the member of the
Judiciary Committee who had insulted
him.
Smith stared at Wilmington and said
he had used no names.
Questions poured in upon the speak
er throughout his argument, and for
each he had an answer, though some
were hardly pertinent to the particular
inquiry.
The bill was refused passage by a
vote of 13 to 10. Smith changed his
vote and gave notice of a motion to
reconsider
On motion of Flint, the Senate recon
sidered the vote whereby A. 3. 30 had
been passed, in order to allow a correc-
ton to be made. The bill had been
passed by both houses, and sent to the
Governor who detected the error and
returned the bill for correction. The
amendment was made and the bill or

The Steinway Piano.

While there are some few manu-
facturers who claim that their piano
is as good as the Steinway, their
statement clearly proves the Stein
WAY to be the ideal, or standard
in piano building.
Steinway pianos are not the best,
just because Steinway Il Sons say
so, but because they have been
proven SO, by the severest tests to
which pianos are put.
Did you ever hear "a sensible per-
son say their piano was better than
"a Steinway? MOI Because they
have good reasons for not making
such claim.
The success of the Steinway &
Sons piano. is due to the fact that
they spare no pains or expense to
make their piano the best in the
world.
Steinway Il Sons have secured a
patent right to every improvement
that has been added to their pianos,
excepting the artistic tone, yet none
have succeeded in stealing that
standard of musical achievement.

COMIC OPERA.

This Evening.

Tonight the Carleton Opera COM
pany will commence an engagement
OF two nights at the opera house, pre-
senting the leading comic operas at
popular prices. An exchange says:
"When Mr.. Carleton announced
himself as supported by star COM
pany he made departure from the
usual practice adopted by theatrical
troupes, and simply told the truth.
Each member OF the company excels
in his or her particular line. Mr.
Carleton last evening sang his way in
to the hearts Of the audience, which
was large one, his full, rich musical
and admirably controlled baritone
making pleasant and not easily for
gotten impression"
1.-THE performances are surprisingly
good and the audiences are evidently
well pleased with the company In
deed it is much more satisfactory
organization than the Nine. Tavary
combination for the reason that its
promises are more than fulfilled, and
the singers perform the work allotted
to them with the ability of experienced
artists. The operas are handsomely
set, and the chorus is composed Of
singers instead of supernumeraries. A"

A Pleasant Halloween Celebration.

Last Saturday evening was most
charmingly and appropriately cello
brated at the home of Miss Allie
Boyers. There was a goodly com
pany present and entertainment of
various kinds was provided. OF
course, they tried to eat the apple
suspended, together with "A lighted
candle, from the ceiling. and tried
their fortunes with chestnuts placed
on the open crate and named, and
told serial story and some may
think that the boys blew the lights
out. OF course this is not so and
the boys are to be commended, be-
cause the temptation was very great,
the lights being candles, jack -o-lan-
terms and bright eyes, and the girls
being SO very pleasing indeed. The
whole OF that pleasant company will
long remember the evening, with it's
autumn decorations, hallow cen
amusements and most hospitable
and congenial good fellowship. Very
delicate and enjoyable refreshments
were served by Miss Boyers and
Miss Norris, both of which ladies
were very charming and hospitable.
Long live Morgantown so long as
it produces such excellent times as
this.

More Encouragement for Foot Bali.

1t is entirely proper at this time
TO point out the great Importance
of more substantial support and CO.
operation in college athietlcs. The
University has taken advance steps
along nearly every line of aetivit,.
Yet nothing has been done to fur
ther this essential part of Universe
ty life other than assurances of an.
proval and we'll wishes for those
who try to maintain an honorable
standing for the University among
other colleges.
All must recognize to das that
pure college athletics have no ner.
nicious effects when made secondary
to the faithful performance of col.
lege work. Besides being a most
valuable means of advertising q
school. College sports help to make
men when judiciouslv and intelli-
gently pursued.
To further this end at our own
University, we are in need of more
encouragement. The most harmo.
NOUS relations exist between the I'M
lverslty authorities and the hovs
who have labored so faithful. To es-
tablish reputation for pure athlet-
les, yet there are those who are in
chned to complain and think we
ought to meet with greater success
IN our contests with neighboring col
ieges. This weak, faltering spirit 10
calculated to dispirit the boys who
have done their best under the cir.
camstances. 1t can be said that no
loot ball team in this whole section
has had more to contend with than
our own. We have lacked funds
and have thus been compelled to as
sumo RISKS in order to properly
equip the players.
we nave felt the need OF a coach
who could devote all his time and
energy IN training our team.
1T has been evident that our team
has not had the full hearty support
Of the student body
We should be unit in this re.
spect Every student should put
his spirit into the cause whether he
can play or not
Since we are all working for a
common purpose, why retard all eff
fort by being so selfish that you can
not lend your support and well
wishes.
Some were dissatisfied with Sat
urday's game with Pittsbury col
lege and thought we ought to retire
from the gridiron. This team with
the best coaching has developed into
formidable adversary.
There is no need of faint hearted
ness on the part of anybody on this
account While we did not score.
our playing was very creditable and
our reputation for pure college sport
increased.
We have a team for which every
one OF us have reasons to be proud.
Encourage them to greater effort BY
your hearty support.
Do not conclude because we do
not win every game, that further at
tempts are futile.
The Board of Regents will come
to our rescue when we present

purposes in view.

TWO TIES.
Neither Foot Ball Team Gets a
Scalp.

Cares at Pittsburg and Brownsville
The Boys Had to Hustle--Pittsburg
College Unexpectedly Strong--Fine
Treatment at Brownsville.
Saturday two tie games of foot ball
were played by teams sent out by the
University. The first team went to
Pittsburg where they met Pittsburg
or Holy Ghost College. A victory
was confidently expected But Coach
Woods of w. & J. had the college
boys coached up to the limit and
neither side was able to score. Prof.
Hodges says that our boys played the
finest game that they have played this
season and that the performance was
in every way creditable one. The
ball was in their opponents territory
the most of the time.
Plumbing, which has been so COM
mon heretofore, was almost entirely
absent, occurring but once and then
the boys regained the ball. The
Pittsburg papers speak in the highest
terms of the gentlemanly conduct of
our team and the prestige and honor
of our college has been maintained as
it should be. Smith, krebs and
White played the best game, while
Osborne and Yeager also did good
work. The line UP:

BIDS OPENED.
Major Powells Opens and Read,
Them Saturday.

Won't be Known for Sure for Several
Days, perhaps Weeks-WOrk to Be ..
gin Next Spring.
Major Charles f. Powell, of the
United States engineer corps, officer
in charge of the Monongahela and
Allegheny rivers, opened bids for
the construction of six new locks
and dams on the Monongahela above
Morgantown at noon Saturday.
There were ii bids in ALL and each
firm was represented by man at
the opening, which was public.
Bids were made on the locks and
dams in pairs, one price being
named for each kind of work on
the first two, whites separate bid was
made on Nos II and Is and on Ia
and Is. The bids were opened at
random, and read aloud by Major
Powell. The representative of the
bidding firms took notes of the con
tents. AS soon as all were read they
were turned over to the clerical force
of the office for tabulation. This
will take some days, and only at its
completion can the official announce
ment of the successful bidder be
made.
However, the two items of con
crete and excavation form the larger
portion of the work. and it is sup
posed that the lowest bidders on
these items will get the contract.
AS it happened, the bid of G l. Nc
Donald, of Pittsburg, was the last
one opened, and it dashed the hopes
of several firms who had considered
themselves among the lowest bid
ders. Mr.. Mcdonald names his price
for concrete}on Nos. 10 and II at IS.
On Nos. II and L. he bid So %, and
on Nos. Ia and 5 he bid $3.50. His
bids on excavation of all kinds were
also low, and the general opinion
seemed to be that when the tabula-
ton is completed he will be found to
be much the lowest bidder. He is
an experienced contractor, and en-
tirely responsible Some of the bids
for concrete were as high as $S,while
none were as low as Mr. Mcdonald s.
The list of bidders was as follows:
Joseph j. Churchyard, Buffalo; l.
Hoag, Jr., Pittsburg; the lutte q
Foley company, Pittsburg; J. w.
Hoffman q Co, Philadelphia; the Nc
Arthurs Company, Chicago; Isaac
G. Brown, New York; John Ship
man, Washington; the Houston Con
struction company, Philadelphia;
Haldermaler u Neu, Chicago; E. A.
Gillespie, Pittshurg; Jacob Friday
q Sons, Pittsburg; Sweeney, Huston
q Bowman Bros, Pittsburg Hing
ston d Sylvester, Buffalo, c. I. Nc
Donald, Pittsburg.
The bid Of Isaac G. Brown was
accompanied by letter explaining
that an error had been made in max
out settlement of the amount of
property owned by the sureties, and
asking that the informally be waiv-
ed.
John Shipman, of Washington, bid
only on Nos. IA, and ID, Sweeney,
Huston & Bowman Bros. bid only ON
Nos. II, 10, IA and Is.
Work on the dams is not to be COM
menced until next spring, and a
period Of four years is allowed to com
plete them. AS soon as it is ascer-
tanned who is the lowest bidder the
tabulated bids will be forwarded
to the war department, where the
contract will be let.

which he never recovered, dying
about two hours later. The cause
as yet is a mystery. 1t is thought
that he was attacted By a vicious
COW, but there are no marks or bruises

Foot of Water Taken Out of This
Pool.

This morning six inches of water
was drawn out of pool number nine.
This is the second subtraction
which has taken place recently, six
inches having been drawn out few
days ago The withdrawal was done
according to telegraphic orders re-
ceived from Major Powell and was
rendered necessary by the losses in
the pools below caused by frequent
lockages The trouble comes from
pool number 5 and below where a
great deal of coal is being taken out.
The water here has not gained any
since the first withdrawal and if it
becomes necessary to take out any
more, navigation will be seriously
threatened. AS it is the water flow
ing in this pool is just about enough
to afford sufficient water to keep even
with the lockage at number nine.
