views on the ACCESSIBILITY of calling
an extra session to repeal the act.

YESTERDAY IN SENATE.
County Government Bill to be
Withdrawn.

In the Senate yesterday morning, on
motion of Stratton, the consideration of
the joint resolution relative to sine die
adjournment on Saturday next, was
postponed until Thursday next. The
action was in accordance with an
agreement reached Monday evening.
COUNTY GOVERNMENT BILL.
The county government bill being a
special order, Dickinson moved that it's
consideration be postponed until this
morning after the reading Of the jour
nal.
Davis said if anything was to be done
with the bill, it should be done at once,
and if nothing was to be done, it should
be allowed to slump back into unfinish-
ed business.
/! Morehouse said he hoped the bill
would be taken up, and Bulla and
Boyce agreed with him.
Shortrfdge urged that the bill go
over until to-day in order to find out
whether or not the several counties
might introduce separate bills, setting
out their specific wants.
Smith spoke in favor of a substitute
for the BILL He said the half dozen
counties which desired changes in their
salary lists could hand in to the Conn
ty Government Committee proposed
amendments, which could be reported
back in a substitute bill.
Dickinson agreed with Smith.
Morehouse said he would have no OBJ
| lection to reporting back a substitute
bill provided that hours and hours
should not be consumed in long debates
in committee. He insisted that he
would listen to no extended debate in
committee, but would, provided the sew
era1 counties could agree on substitutes
report the same back with urgency res
olutions.
Thereupon Dickinson moved that the
bill be recommitted to the County Gov
ernment Committee, with instructions
to report substitute bill.
Bulla contended that such an arrange
ment would bring the problem no
sired to kill the bill it ought to be done
outright.
Dickinson's motion to refer the bill
back to the committee was lost.
Thereupon Simpson moved that con-
sideration of the county government bill
i be indefinitely postponed. Lost-9 to
| 10.
WILL BE WITHDRAWN.
Bulla moved that the members of the
several counties who desired changes
made in the law pertaining to their par
ticular county, prepare Bills fitting their
respective needs, and that the same be
introduced under urgency resolutions,
after which the county government bill
could be withdrawn. Carried
Thereupon Bulla moved that further
consideration of the county government
bin be postponed until this morning.
and the motion was carried by a viva
voce vote.

HEART DISEASE.
SOME FACTS REGARDING THE RAPID
INCREASE OF HEART TROUBLES
Do Not Be Alarmed, But Look For The
Cause.

DO Not Be Alarmed, But Look For The
Cause.
Heart troubles. at least among the
while this may be largely due to the
excitement and worry of American bus
iness life, it is more often the result OF
weak stomachs of poor digestion.
Real organic disease is incurable; bu.
trouble is organic.
The close relation between heart
trouble and poor digestion is because
both organs are controlled by the same
great nerves, the sympathetic and
Pneumogastric.
In another way, also the heart is af-
fected by the form of poor digestion
which causes gas and fermentation from
half digested food There is a feeling
of oppression and heaviness in the
chest caused by pressure of the dis
tended stomach on the heart and lungs
interfering with their action: hence
arises palpitation and short breath.
Poor digestion also poisons the blood
making it thin and watery, which irri-
tates and weakens the heart.
The most sensible treatment for heari
trouble is to improve the digestion anc
to insure the prompt assimilation oil
food.
This can be done by the regular use
after meals OF some safe, pleasant and
effective digestive preparation, like
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets, which may
be found at most drug stores and which
contain valuable, harmless digestive
elements in pleasant, convenient form
1t is safe to say that the regular per-
sistent use of. Stuart's Dyspepsia Tab.
let's at meal time will cure any form Of
stomach trouble except cancer of the

The county government bill is to be
withdrawn. That question has been
definitely settled. But in it's stead will
crop up probably a half-hundred little
county government bills-a bill for each
and every county whose representative
wants change in salaries. officers, etc.
In the Senate five of those little side
issue bills were introduced last night,
and others will go in this morning, aud
all will, it is understood, be treated as
matters of urgency and rushed through
as rapidly as possible.
GENERAL APPROPRIATION BILL.
AT a late hour last night the Senate
Finance Committee finished its labors
on the general. appropriation Dill ana
reported the same back to the Senate
And, regardless of the lateness OF the
hour, and regardless also of the fact
that but twenty two members were
present, the Senate proceeded to adopt
the report of the committee.
So it happened that it was l2:oo
O'Clock when the Senate adjourned this
morning.
AS reported back from the Finance
Committee, the bill fixes the amount
of general appropriations at So,1lo.-
72S.16; appropriations for the support
of orphans and half-orphans at SoOo,-
eco; schools, $4 S66, $50; interest Oh
sinking fund, $2S2, ,S07; and special ap-
preparations (estimated), S1,2oo,Voo

MATTERS IN THE HOUSE.
The day in the Assembly yesterday
was absolutely eventless, but also
busy one. Debates We're few, and, be-
sides the passing of between thirty ana
forty bills. numerous others were read
second time, amended and otherwise
promoted in their career.
adjournment talk has been transfer
red from the Assembly to the Senate,
and the echoes from that body sound
a little as if the sine die might be far
ther away than the 18th
Notwithstanding the prophecies that
the county government bill is dead III
the Senate or, perhaps, because OF sucn
prophecies, "a crop of minor county bills
is coming up in all sorts OF places ana
ways Some of these are old bills half
buried in committee and now remem-
bered and hunted up. Others are new
bills introduced with the idea of max
ing them matters of urgency and get
ting them through.
THIS IS NEW.
But an entirely original idea was
evolved last night when Cosper Of Tu-
lare asked to substitute for bill on
the LOTTERY file' his A. B. 60, the title
of which says that it is an Act regu-
lating the sale of the lands uncovered
by the recession of the water of inland
lakes. The history of the bill an
nounced that it was pending final pass
age having been amended under spe-
cial instruction on third reading and
having come back from the printer.
Cosper when asked by a member to
explain the bill announced that it was a
county government bill'' in which
Kings, Sonoma and San Bernardinc
Counties were interested
The discrepancy between the bill an6
the title was at once discovered and
it was found that in amending all mat
ter after the enacting clause had been
stricken out and there had been sub
stituted for reclaimed land bill a
straightout bin relating to county gov
ernment. The next move was to have
been to amend the title and get that to

The train had stopped for few min

two or three barefooted little boys and
girls had their backs against the depot
and their fingers in their mouths, while
they stared at the passengers.
Suddenly boy of about 10 years
dashed round n corner of the station
and called to his brother and sister:
You, Joey! Ma says if you an Mag
gle don't come right straight home
she'll-she'll-we l forgit what, but
she'll do it, sure, for you know what
ma is when she gifts started; SO you'd
better git home straight OFF,
Joey and Maggie evidently knew
what ma was when she got started"
for they started homeward as fast AS
their bare little feet would carry them.
