thorizing and requiring the superinten-
dent of the Massillon hospital TO admit

sane man who is nonresident of the

represent that it is necessary to his sue

covery that they be near to and in posi-
tion to visit him during treatment

Mr.. Pollock is looking for the artist of
Columbus afternoon paper, and there
is a vague suspicion that the member
from Stark may have a gun secreted
about his clothes which he would fain
use to mar the beauty of the said artist
In a first page cartoon printed by the
paper referred to. containing carica-
lures Of certain members of the house,
the facial contour Of Mr.. Pollock is pre-
sented in such delineation as to be any
thing but flattering to his beauty and
intellectually.
The Big Four train which bore the
Stark co. delegation to Columbus this
afternoon was late and Speaker Pro
Tenn Snyder missed the opportunity to
call the house to order, for Speaker Rey-
nolds, being on the same belated train,
was tardy also, and Mr.. Metzgar did not
show up at all during the 80 minuts ses-
sion of this afternoon. 49, McCORD.
