SUNDAYS Fire.

The alarm of fire was sounded
about O'Clock Sunday afternoon for
a small house in First ward that was
occupied as residence by Mrs Jessie
Cowan, colored, daughter of VIM
Moore who occupies the house on the
same lot. Mrs. Cowan was at the
home of her father who is quite ill,
and there was no one in her home
when the fire caught. 1t is thought
that the stove tipped over or that the
fire in some manner caught from the
stove. The entire place was in flames
when the fire was discovered and
burned down very rapidly. 1t was a
very small house and was practically
destroyed by the time the fire COM
pany arrived, although they made an
excellent run after the alarm was
sounded. There was no insurance
and Mrs. Cowan lost everything that
was in the house.

TIE LEGISLATURE.
Many Measures Proposed and
Some Action Taken.

Des Moines, Jan. 2O.-The motion
yesterday to adjourn until Monday
was lost, so short session was held
to-day.
A conference between the state
board of control and the members of
the general assembly has been ar
ranged for next Wednesday evening
in the senate chamber at the state
house. 1t will be open Ito theypublic
and the legislature will inquire as to
the methods of the board.
A committee of thirty members of
the house went to Mitchellville Fri
day to inspect the Girls Industrial
School there. The riot in this insti-
tuition served to attract the attention
of the legislature to it. OF the 100
girls, about 20 were kept in the Polk
county jail for three weeks.
Bills were introduced in both houses
to amend the lawI relating to library
taxes, SO that Ottumwa, Iowa, may
accept gift of $50, 900 from Andrew
Carnegie.
1t has been decided by the house
that it will go by special train next
week to the Polk county poor farm
to inspect the county asylum located
there. The legislature will investi-
gate the care given in thissasylum
and will doubtless gather therefrom
some reasons for opposing or favor
ing proposition which will be made
in the assembly this winter to remove
all insane cared for at the county
poor farms to the state asylums, thus
making necessary the $500, 900 appro-
priation proposed I for iCherokee
asylum.
An appropriation bill carrying $780,
100 for the Soldiers Orphans's q -ome
was proposed in the. senate.
The grocers of the state ares MAX
ing preparations andl have been for
some months to get a law passed to
protect their interests. At present
the law exempts the wages of the
head of family fromi garnishment
for 80 days, even where the debt ow-
ed is for family Eexpenses. No Ebill
has yet been introduced, but sit is
understood that the grocers will ask
that this be greatly reduced and that
the exemption shall be small sum.
Senator Macarthur, of Burlington,
has introduced a bill to require non
resident sportsmen to take out a
shooting license before being allow
ed to hunt with gun anyEbird or
wild animal in the state. The license
fee is fixed at $40 for eachncounty
and the applicant is required to file
his application with the secretary of
state, stating name, age and place of
residence of the applicant and the
county in which he desires to hunt.
Besides the $40 fee fee of so cents
must be paid to tho secretary of state
for issuing the license. The holder
of such licence may take from the
state not to exceed % birds of all
kinds killed by himself and his op-
erations must be confined to the
legal season.
