LEGISLATIVE DO|NGS.
ROUTINE OF THE SENATE
AND HOUSE.
The Haman Oyster Bill Killed Long And
Protracted Debates The Modified

A HOT TIME IN THE OLD TOWN

There Is "a hot time" IN the halls oI
the Mary land Legislature about this time
and strangers who have never witnesst d
the scenes in the halls OF cur modern
legislatures in their declining da, S. stand
with abAted breath and wonder what
nsx' is coming.
But these actors on the political stage
are our Law makers. and we must not
cri,icise. The Speaker raps and raps Tor
order until one would think he would
break bis gavel. Nearly the whole OF
the House session yesterday was taken
up with arguments over the Haman oys-
ter bill. which was finally sko,ched.
The d feat OF the bill was a great iii-
umph for the oystermen. who imagined
that everything that was evil and of dire
destruction TO the oyster industry was
wrapped up in this bill. and on the other
hand the advocates saw nothing but an
inexhaustible gold mine in the barren
bottoms, and Il was battle royal on
both sides.

the Senate last night were the following

BIG EDUCATIONAL RALLY.
Harry fuckers Speech at Monterey

Harry fuckers Speech at Monterey-
Pleasing Glimpse of Prosperity.
MONTEREY, VA. November A.-(Spe-
cial.)-The November term of the zCoun-
ty Court which was a grand jury term,
was more largely attended than any SEES
sion of the year. There were many con-
ditions that contributed to this END. L ne
stage OF fall work was propitious Corn

herds of cattle weighed up and delivered
and replaced by other herds. which are

were some Of the favorable conditions.
added to which was the sale of several
tracts of estate lands in front OF the.
courthouse on that day.
TUCKER THE DRAWING CARD.
Put. without doubt, the drawing card
was Hon. Harry Tucker, who was billed
for a speech on education. Mr.. Tucker
is we'll known to the people of Highland
as an exponent Of political principles IN
former years, and needed no introduction
except in the capacity in which his theme
came. This was done by j. M. CoiaW,
and the welcome accorded the speaker,
not being circumscribed by any party
lines, might be truly termed cordial,
heartfelt. and universal. Although -here
was misunderstanding as to the hour,
the old courtroom was soon packed to
suffocation, perhaps 70 per cent Oh the
audience being ladies.
Mr.. Tucker said that one of the finest
speeches ever made by him ("and it as
good one, too'D was against the tree
school system, and he wished now to
reply to that speech and call 1T JOINT
discussion" knowing Highlands 1ondness
for that sort of thing. His reference
to the changes wrought during his abb
senCe Of eight years was alternately hu-
morous and pathetic. He noted the va
cant chairs and absent faces-especlally
that of mis- faithful. true, and lifelong
friend. the la Pascal D. Williams. ot:the
Bullpasture In terms of praise and ad-
mirat ton he spoke of the handsome new
public-school building, which is now near
ing completion, and which is quick to

IN HENRICO.

Charles Bailey, who has been terror
izing the lower end Of Henrico county, is
at last safe behind the bars Of the coun-
ty Jail.
. The authorities of the county received
a telegram Saturday night that the man
who had previously announced his inten-
ton of making Baltimore his home, had
been arrested in Newport News.
Bailey takes turns with sanity and IN
sanity and has been an inmate in the
Eastern hospital several times and had
been out about ten months when ne start
ed on his last wild escapade.
When he was seized with his last wild
inclinatio he repaired to the lower end OF
the county and went to the home OF
farmer and demanded a gun. which was
readily yielded to him. and after procur-
ing ammunition. he held the county roads
at his own sway until last Wednesday,
when Treasurer Brauer and Commissioner
of the Revenue Childrey saw him on a
C. &: O. train. at which time he signified
his intention of locating in Baltimore.
This seemed to have been dilusion. for
on Friday, Bailey got employment in the
shipyards at Newport News and worked
there until Saturday about noon, whe1,
his mental condition was noticed ana
several of his fellow-worKmen refused 10
work with him. saying that the man was
demented. He was reported to the po-
lice of Newport News and Richmond,
was Immediately notified and Constable
Eubank went for the man Saturday
night, arriving back here on yesterday
about noon.
Constable Eubank said he had not the
least trouble with the crazed man, al
though he had on several previous coca
sions arrested him when Bailey swore
vengeance against the county authorities.
When seen in his cell to-day by News
reporter Bailey talked rather nationally
on some subjects. but when asked why
he let the authorities arrest him. he was
loud in his denunciations. He said he had
employed the finest local lawyers to plead
his cause and in concluding. said to the
reporter:
You are most cordially invited to the
trial.
The man will undoubtedly be sent back
to the asylum
Z. Bailey is a big, raw-boned man, and IS
considered by all at the Jail as a marvel
in strength.

CHAIRMAN SCALES REPLY.
WThn. He Says About the Colored
College AT Greensboro. n. G.

GREENSBORO. n. c.. November "a
tSpecial) "A sensation was caused in this
State last week when the examiners of
State institutions reported to Governor
Aycock that the Colored Agricultural and
Mechanical College In this city was a
rank failure, and that the State aid
ought 10 be withdrawn from it. To-day
A. NJ Scales. chairman of the Board Of
Trustees issued a lengthy statement in
which he charges the examiners with
making most glaring misstatements and
with injuriously rnisrepresenting the col
Icgc. Instead of being a rank failure.

Scales. brilliant success. His board
took charge of il three years ago. when
IT had a debt of $4,000. Now every dol
lar Of debt has been paid. a $1,000 farm
has been bought and paid for. Bills are
paid in thirty days, and the institu-
lions credit has been completely re-
stored. In answer TO the charges of the
examiners that the instruction given is
too theoretical, Chairman Scales shows
that IL is being made more and more
practical. He says that the board had no.
thing 10 guide it. since industrial edu-
cation is largely an experiment in the
Eouth even among white people. and
eimong colored people the problem is ten
