IOWA LEGISLATURE.

Neither branch of the Legislature held
session on Thursday. A large number
of the members went in body to Iowa
City to attend the third conyocation OF
the State University.
The only feature of Importance in Ell
days legislative sessions was the confirm
alton Of Judge G. s. Robinson OF sioux
City as member of the State board OF
control. The Senate passed the bill CIV
ing cities of the first class having pop
ulation of over $4,000 the privilege OF
levying three-mill tax for park pur-
poses, and an additional one-mill for the
four years subsequent to the year l9Uo.
The Senate passed the bill by Wallace re-
pealing that section of the code which re-
quires hedge fences to be trimmed to
five feet every two years, and leaves the
question discretionary with county trus-
tees. The House bill by Myers legal
izing the resolutions and proceedings OF
the Council and Mayor of the incorporat-
ed town of Milford, Dickinson County,
Iowa, was also passed by the upper
body. The hunters license bill was taken
up and discussed, but for lack of time
was not acted upon. The House passed
the bill by Lyman to allow savings banks
to make loans on farm lands to two
thirds instead of half the actual value of
the land. The only other bill to pass the
House was the one by Kirkwood to
transfer Harrison County from the
Fourth to the Fifteenth judicial district
and to provide an additional judge for
the latter. The House killed the Eiker
bill after first voting down substitute
to increase the amount of personal earn
ings to be exempted So to $40. Only
five votes were cast in favor of the bill.
Little was accomplished by the Senate
at its Saturday session. The resolution
giving the Secretary of State authority
to sell the session laws was passed. AZ
ter spending the greater part OF the morn
ing in laborious attempt to get together
quorum, the House introduced three
new bills, INDUCED in some refreshing
levity and Mt the expiration of twenty
minutes stood adjourned. There were
only five members present and from these
the chairmen of committees could not get
together the required number for COM
mittee meetings.

Found Guilty ON seriou. Charge.

ROUND Unity ON serious charge.
The jury in the Charles Essex case at
Charlton returned verdict Of guilty. Es-
sex was charged with an attempt to
wreck Burlington fast mail No. on the
night Of Nov. %. The case attracted
widespread interest and the court was
filled at every session. Essex has always
borne a good reputation. When it was
announced the prisoner broke down com
pletely and wept for several hours.

AT Fort Dodge three men with a team
and wagon went to lime and brick fac
tory, which is not in operation, and load
ing all the iron machinery that could be
handled drove to foundry and sold it
for old iron. NJ. NJ. Tabor and Robert
Elder were arrested charged with the
crime. Elder was bound over and Tabor
secured continuance. The robbery was
the boldest that ever occurred there. The
machinery taken was valued at 500.

THE LATEST RETURNS.

The latest returns received from Ha
wall ana Kauai this morning as well as
the report from Maui indicate that Rob
ert Wilcox has carried the election for
Delegate by a small plurality over
Samuel Parker. The fact that these re-
turns were received over the telephone
ana are not official leaves "A consider
able element of doubt with the chances
iayoring such narrow plrality that an
official recount is almost assured. a
recount should unquestionably be de-
named on this island particularly In
the first precinct of the Fourth Dis
trict where ballots were thrown out on
a questionable techniCality.
The results at hand today prove con-
clusiyely that the great strength Of the
Wilcox party was in the country dis
tricts, that Honolulu Is not and never
has been one OF his strongholds. The
mistake made by party managers was
in sighting the country and the
managers was in sighting. and the
echo of the defeat of Hilo for the Ter
ritorial convention is heard In the
Legislative and Congressional returns
from the island of Hawaii. The Re-
publicans lose a Senator on the island
of Hawaii through the treachery Of Mr..
T. friends to the Republican prir-
ciple of majority rule. The Republic
cans have lost the ticket on Hawaii by
lack of organization and united action.
The good government idea basel
on voting for the best man" has been
fully tested on the island of kauai.NThe
result OF this test has been so terriil-
party organization on American lines
that the best man" idea as epitomized
by the acts of local politicians who
came within an ace VI wrecking the
Republican ticket ought to have re-
ceived lis quietus forever. George Will
cox and Rice were credited with hold
ing Kauai as a pocket borough to be
handed over on demand. These gen.
tlemcn eschewed party politics, ana
their local friends urged the same
course here on the Legislative ticket.
The presence of Wilcox and Rice a;
the wrong end of the Senatorial tick
ct is all the vindication required for
radical party men" of the Republican
ranks. This experiment of theorizers
was one that the party could Ill affort
at this first trial Of strength Of the
Territorial electorate.
Present returns point to the conclr-
sion that the Republican Territorial
administration is in the hands of its
enemies as regards the Legislature.
The Republicans can now claim only
sufficient representation to prevent The
passage of bills over the Governors
veto.

An interesting application OF the
electrical current has recently been
made in the manufacture of bisulphide
Of carbon. This substance is a color
less liquid resembling water in appear

offensive odor. 1t is used in large
quantities as a solvent for india rubber
and as the base of various varnishea.
II Is formed when carbon and sulphur
are heated together at a high temper

from which the resulting gases are led
into worms resembling those of a still.
In this they are condensed to the
liquid product. which is then bottled.
II is not the least of chemical curiosi-
ties that this clear and limpid liquid
Is formed by the combination of two
solid substances.

II is said that the electrical effects 10
be exhibited at the forthcoming Pan
American Exposition in Buffalo N. T.,
will exceed anything of their kind ever
shown before. The enormous energy
of the Niagara power plant will be
available for the contemplated illumi-
nations and this will mean that food
OF electrical energy will be poured in to
maintain the really marvellous display
of electric light that will be shown. 1t
has been suggested that an artificial
sun shall be shown, consisting of an
immense plate Of carbon heated 10

or six thousand horse power Of electri-
