The winner is at the top of his form and

dangerous and brought those killed down in
convincing style. Davenport" from his
first bird on was seemingly tied up and did
not act at all like himself.

electoral college.
Mr. Fox Of Mississippi replied to the at
tacks upon the southern states especially
defending the action OF his state in adopting
its new constitution.
Mr.. Sutherland Of Nebraska replied
briefly to the structures upon Nebraska and
populism made by Mr. Hopkins yesterday.
He said one had as we'll accuse Mr.. Nc
Kinley of being responsible for the loss OF
representative in Ohio as to say that
Organism was responsible for a similar loss
in Nebraska.
Mr.. Linney, republican of North Carolina,
argued that under their oaths to support
the constitution members Ia voting upon
the reapportionment question must take
cognizance of the abridgement OF the suf-
frage in the southern states. He gave an
entertaining description of democratic cleo
tion methods in North Carolina, scoring the
democrats merclessly for their action. He
was especially severe in his condemnation
of their course in calling the legislature
together last summer to pass a law to pre-
vent the issue of writs of mandamus.
Mr.. Sims, democrat of Tennessee asked
If the real cause of the alleged crimes re-
cited by Mr. Linney was not to prevent
negro domination.
Fear of Negro Domination a Myth.
Mr.. Linney replied that the fear OF negro
domination was pure rot" that all pre-
text Of such fear could be destroyed by re-
quiring all officers OF the state and county
to give bond.
"Did the republicans of North Carolina
ever elect negro TO the supreme bench of
the state?" asked Mr.. Gaines, democrat Of
North Carolina.
"They never did and they never WILL" re-
piled MIR. Linney, but the democrats to
serve their purpose would appoint a negro
or monkey" daughter and applause.)
Mr. Linney declared that it was tho love
of power which led the democrats Of the
state to commit the crimes against the bal
lot.
Mr. Small democrat of North Carolina,
asked Mr.. Linney If he charged fraud IN his
district.
How many negroes are there In your dis
trict?" asked Mr.. Jinney.
II do not know, but the negroes have not
a majority" replied MIR. Small.
"Then" replied Mr.. Linney, quickly. at
is possible that you may have squeezed
through by leaving hair on both sides OF
the hole without stealing" Laughter)

the committee on apportionment, fix
ing the assembly districts. By re-
arranging the towns little Dane
county's only democratic district is

batting of game cocks and beasts,
In the assembly the Spratt bill for
peusoning on half pay firemen and
policemen at the age Of IS was put
over for q week on motion of Mr..
Valentine of GAINESVILLE. The measure
applies only to cities like that place,
Madison, Racine, etc, and is said to
have been drawn for the special bene-
fit of an old fireman or policeman at
ShebOygan; but its dangerous CharaC.
ter as an entering wedge for pensions
is beginning to be appreciated, If it
is to go through 1t will be amended to
apply to all cities, 50 it IL said. AS.
sembly bills were passed as follows:
Benson's, forbidding persons carrying
firearms to entor farm lands with.
out permits from the owners; Thomas

Soltwedel's, requiring detectives to

"At the opening Of the Spanish war

Miles was allowed to have his own

eral of the army to be expended as he
thought best A part of this sun
Miles devoted to carrying out an
original scheme of his own. He con-
ceived the idea of furnishing his army
of invasion with device which he be-
LEVIED would be of great efflcancy in pro-
tecting them against the bullets of the
foe. He ordered the construction ac.
cording to plans of his own of two
hundred shields the like of which had
never been seen in war. These shields
were bullet-proOf steel plates mounted
on an axle which a few men were to
push ahead Of them in the advance
against the el envy. They We're also to
be used as an easily-constructed in,
trenchment by throwing earth against
them. They were built as Miles di-
rected at a cost of $4,000, but they
were so constructed that no army Oh
earth could have showed them ahead
over the narrow wagon trail of Cuba,
where it was intended that they
should be used. The fortunes of war
did not permit of their employment.
