Austin, Texas, May 13.-Special.-The
Senate this morning passed the House
bill authorizing the II. & II. c. railway
company to purchase and operate the
Waco and Northwestern and the Tex
as Central railroads.

House bill authorizing the counties OF
Galveston, Harris, Wharton, Calhoun
and Victoria to issue bonds for the
construction of public roads. The We
to is made on constitutional grounds.
The House started to wrangle at nine
o'clock over the adoption of the free

general appropriation bill, the main
bone Of contention being in opposition
to the appropriation for the state uni
versity

DEER WANTED IN CONNECTICUT.
Hunters Petition for Appropriation
with Which to Stock Preserves.

Hunters Petition for Appropriation
with Which to stock Preserves.
Connecticut hunters are making an
effort to introduce more wild deer into
the state. A petition has been sent to
the state game warden asking for an
appropriation of at least $4,000 for the
purpose of securing deer and stocking
preserves in various parts of the state,
reports the New York Sun. Connecti-
cut has hundreds of acres of wild coun-
try which is continually growing
wilder, owing to the tendency of the
people to desert the farms and give up
agriculture for manufactures and city
life, and for miles in some parts OF the
state not a house is to be seen. The
country is too barren for agriculture,
not even sheep raising being conducted
with profit in some parts of it, but
the scrubs are just what the deer re-
quire for sustenancethrough the winter.
There are now about dozen wild deer
in the state, and their owners believe
that they exist under ideal conditions
there.
The Connecticut climate is much
more favorable to the animals than that
of Maine, Vermont OF New Hampshire,
and in those three states the deer are
met nearly everywhere in the uninhab-
tied portions. The recent movement
to preserve wild deer in Long Island
has been a success. Bay lynXes, which
in most newspaper reports are called
wildcats" in common with the genu.
inc wildcats, are sometimes met with in
Sussex and Passaic counties, and Sc
are mink and weasels.
Bears sometimes get into the north
western part of Sussex county.

Action Against Mrs. Clas to Recover
$1,000.


Powers, Straup & Lippman have en-
tered suit in the Third district court
against Lucille Clas. guardian of the
person and estate of Helene Cohen, al
leging that the defendant owes the
plaintiffs the sum of $500 over and
above all legal set-offs and counter
claims. for professional services rem
dered and performed between Dec. D
1896. and June TO- 1897, in matters per
tanning to a divorce between h. A
Cohen and Helene Cohen, and that the
same is secured by a lien on personal
property.
It is further alleged that Mrs Clas,
with intent to cheat these plaintiffs out
of the amount she agreed TO pay for
the professional services, represented
to them that she had abandoned all
intention of procuring the divorce for
her ward, who is her sister, notwith-
standing which she went to Phoebe,
New, and there secured the decree
upon the favorable terms and condi-
tions arranged by these plaintiffs.
Mrs. Clas is the sister of Mrs. Cohen.
and the latter was the wife of H. A.
Cohen, the well-known mining. man.
Mrs Cohen was adjudged insane and
committed to the state insane asylum.
Soon after, Mrs. Clas, who resides in
Wisconsin, came along and obtained
the release of her sister and took hey
home with her to Wisconsin to take
care of her, and subsequently the di-
vOrce proceedings were instituted,
which resulted in Mrs. Cohen being
granted the decree of divorce, a dover
right of $4,000 and alimony in the
sum of $i50 a month.
Mrs. Clas arrived in Salt Lake YES
terday, and the process in the suit to
recover fees was served upon her She

SCHOOL FUNDS.
An Opinion Given Out by the Attor-
.ney-General.

The attorney general yesterday
handed down another opinion to the
si-ate superintendent OF schools in the
matter of funds. The same was in
reply TO a question asked by the Of
ficer and is as follows:
l am in re,seipt of your favor of the
12th inst. asking for an opinion upon
the following question: The school
law of 1897 iilstruets the county treas
urers TO pay to the district treasurers
certain state and county school funds
on the warrinfs of the County super
ir.tendent of schools. Now in case a
school district in any county of the
state has ssh remaining to its credit
in the county treasury money appor-
tened from the STATE and county school
funds, how shall this money be drawn
from the county treasurer and put in
possession OF she district treasurer"
find by section 4 of chapter 40 of
the laws of 1897 a provision as follows:
The county treasurer shall receive
and hold, as a special school fund, sub
ject to the orders of the county SUI
perintendent, all public school moneys
from whatever source received. and
keep a separate account thereof; and
when the same is apportioned to the
school districts he shall pay it to the
district treasurers upon the warrants
of the county superintendent. He shall,
on or before the LIST day of August in
each year. make a report to the board
of county commissioners, who shall
audit the same, and to the state SUI
perintendent in such form as he shall
direct, showing. First, the amount of
moneys on hand at the commencement
of the school year; second, the amount
of moneys received from the state
school fund; third the amount received
from the county school tax; fourth, the
amount received from other sources;
fifth, the total expenditures for school
purposes; sixth, the balance on hand
at the end of the school year
The fact that the school district had.
at the time this law went into effect,
funds to its credit in the county treas
ury, the same being money appor-
toned from the state and county school
funds, could not in any way affect
the operation of this law. The law
provides that the county treasurers
Shall receive and hold public school
moneys from whatever source received.
and that he shall pay the same to the
district treasurerS upon the warrant
of the county superintendent. The
language of the act seems TO be clear
and unambiguous. and advise you that
the money in the hands of the county
treasurer may be covered into the dis
trict treasury upon the warrant of the
county Superintendent

GRAND LODGE K. OF P. AID
JOURNED YESTERDAY.
Good Feeling and Harmony Pre-
vailed and the Meeting Was. in
Every Way a Success-Subordi-
nate Lodge Deputies-Past Grand
Chancellor Wedell Presented With
a Past Grand Jewel.

Park City, June 1.-THE 18th session
of the grand lodge of the domain of
Utah closed its labors at a few min
utes before u o'clock, noon. today. AS
at the dispersion of all such fraternal
gatherings, this one was not without
its solemn side. Many of the older
delegates and officers. felt that they
were parting perhaps never to meet
again this side of eternity. 1t was II
o'clock when Justus Witherell. the in
stalling officer, took the station as
signed to him and conducted the clos
ing exercises.
In assuming the gavel and the re-
sponsibilities of grand chancellor N
w. Sonnedecker made a brief but elO-
Guent address, at the close OF which a
pleasing incident took place by H. c.
Wardleish, grand keeper of records and
seals. in a very neat speech, presenting
W. B. Wedell, the retiring grand chan
cellor, with a past grand chancellor's
jewel, as a slight token of the conf
dence, esteem and appreciation in
which he is held by the grand lodge.
In receiving the jewel, Mr.. Wedell
made a brief talk, in which he thanked
the grand lodge members for their fra
ternal feeling towards him. He hoped
he would always so measure his con-
duct as Pythian as to be worthy of
such esteem and confidence.
SUBORDINATE DEPUTIES.
The grand chancellor appointed the
following subordinate lodge deputies

THOSE MINING RECORDS.
J. 7. Monk Fined $50 and Costs for
Failing to Produce Them.

James T. Monk the mining recorder
of Big Cottonwood mining district, who
was arrested a few days ago on the
charge OF neglecting and refusing to
turn over the mining records of the dis
trict to the county recorder, as re-
quired by law, had a. hearing yesterday
before Justice McMaster.
1t appeared from the testimony that
Monk had purposely allowed the rec
ords to be carried off; in fact, when
Monk was removing from one Office
room to another. it appeared that he
had boxed up the records and left them
in the office with the Injunction 10 some
Of the boys" 20 see that they disap-
peared, and they did disappear.
Monk was fined $50 and $3.50 and as
the intention is TO make this a test
case notice of appeal was given. As
sistant County Attorney Ray Van Colt
prosecuted and Judge Henderson is
counsel for Monk
1t is possible that proceedings in the
nature of mandamus will be instituted
to compel Monk TO produce the records.
