Thursday was read and approved without
reading
Senator Parkhurst, Of Providence, from
the Judiciary committee. reported back
an act to create a commission TO divide
the city OF Pawtucket into seven wards,
and he moved it's passage.
The. bill was read i'm it's entirety, and
then Senator Banigan, OF Pawtucket. pre-
sented a resolution of the board of alder
men of Pawtucket. protesting against the
passage Of the act as unnecessary and
uncalled for, and asking that when the
ward lines shall be changed the work
be done by electors OF Pawtucket. and
that the matter be first submitted to the
electors of Pawtucket for their approval
or rejection.
Senator Banigan, after the reading of
the protest, said that in view of the fact
that the city of Pawtucket had not asked
for this bill II should not be passed. He
claimed that the act was the work OF 4
single man, who had procured a few sig
natures, and the bill certainly did not rep
resent the wishes OF the people Of Paw

on the street railways Of the state and
providing that IL shall be mandatory upon

CALLS 1T ILL-ADvIsED.

The bill does not provide that the act
shall be accepted or approved by the
board of aldermen or by the people OF
Pawtucket and this alone makes IL an
ir-advised measure. The bill does not
provide that both political parties shall
be on the proposed commission to redis-
trict the city, and under its provisions
three persons from outside the city OF
Pawtucket may be appointed.
Senator Freeman, OF Central Falls
chairman of the judiciary committee, re-
piled on behalf OF the bill. lie said that
since the last redistricting OF the city Of
Pawtucket some of the wards had i'm
creased very largely, and a large number
OF the residents of Pawtucket admitted
that new ward lines had become an actual
necessity
The common council OF Pawtucket has
asked for the passage OF the bill by a vote
of 9 TO 5, and IL was not q Democratic
measure or n Republican measure, but
was a bill asked for by large majority
Of the thinking, conservative citizens OF
Pawtucket.

WAS DONE IN PROVIDENCE.

One of the objections 10 the bill was
that of three commissioners TO be APP
pointed only one would be n citizen of
Pawtucket. but this was not a new pro-
cedure. The same thing has been done
i'm other cities. including Providence.
Senator Freeman said he honestly be-
lieved that a ward division by a commits
sion appointed by the governor OF the
state would be far more satisfactory than
a ward division by any commission elected
b. tho Pawtucket city council
Senator Freeman then moved the pass
age Of the bill at the same time moving
the previous question, which latter mo-
tion prevailed
Senator Banigan again spoke against
the passage OF the bill and desired To-
offer an amendment but the chair ruled
this could not be done after the previous
question had been ordered.
The bill was then passed in concurrence
by n viva voce vote, the demand for
roll call falling.

Joint resolution of adjournment providing

Senator Banigan opposed the passage
Of the resolution and wanted tho legisla-
turc TO remain I'm session for two weeks
more. and thus an out the G0 days pro-
vided hy law lie deemed this adjourn
ment until December next as n political
measure and n breach OF faith on the
pot Of the Republican party.
Senator Parker said that had there not
been obstruction on the part Of the party
that the gentleman from Pawtucket
represents all business would have al
ready been transacted.
Senator Banigan asked for roll CALL
but there was not n sufficient number
and the resolution was then passed in

A GOOD EXAMPLE.
BeneEeiaI influence of Good Nature
im the Elders Upon the
Young.

One person doing right under ad-
verse circumstances will accomplish
more than many treatises about what
is right. The census has never been
taken of lovely old folks. Most of as,
if we have not such one in our own
house now, have in our memory such
a saint, says the Detroit Free Press
We went to those old people with
all our troubles. They were per-
petual evangelists; by their soothing
words, by their hopefulness of spirit
an inexpressible help. I cannot see
how Heaven could make them any
lovelier than they are, or were. But
there are exceptions. There is
daughter in that family whose father
is impatient and the mother queru-
lous. The passage of many years does
not always improve the disposition,
and there are a great many disagree
able old folks. Some of them forget
that they were ever young them
selves, and they become untidy in
their habits, and wonder how, when
their asthma or rheumatism is so bad,
other people can laugh or sing and go
on as they do. The daughter in that
family bears all their peevishness and
unreasonable behavior without an
swering back or making any kind of
complaint. If you ask her what her
five talents are, or her one talent is,
she would answer that she has no
talent at all. Greatly mistaken is
she. Her one talent is TO for
bear and treat the childishness
of the old, as well as the
childishness of the young. She
is no musician, and besides there
may not be piano in the house; she
cannot slsillfully swing croquet
mallet or golf stick; indeed, she
seems shut up to see what she can
do with ladle and broom and a
brush and other household imple-
ments.

he finds that the rani is, from a do
nestle point of view, monarch of all
he surveys, and her Brahmin husband
bears the same relation to her that the
late prince consort bore TO Queen Vic

OFFICIAL BATHTUBS.
From This Account We Learn How
the Legislators Indulge In
Their Additions.

Away down in the basement of the
capitol, in the midst of the winding
and mysterious passages of this sub
terranean section, are located the CON
gressional bathrooms, where the states
men cleanse their cuticles at the ex-
pense of Uncle Sam. There are about
Is tubs on the house side, and when
congress is in session they are patron
lied at all hours of the day. The rep
resentatives who take their periodic
tubbings in the capitol bathrooms are
not bound by any particular hour or
rule of bathing. They start in al any
hour of the day Tor night, if the house
sits late), and are scrubbed and rubbed
down by strong-armed attendants at
government expense. The fact that
the tubs are almost constantly occupied
indicates the extent to which the priv
ilege of a free bath is appreciated. In
many of the hotels of the city patron
lied by congressman charge is made
for the use of the bath, and the thrifty
representative can get around this ex-
pense by making his additions at the
capitol, says the Washington Star.
In both the senate and house wings
of the capitol there are barber shops,
where statesmen are shaved, and hair
tonics, perfumes and soaps furnished
by the government, so that if one has a
mind to. the usual expenses of the bar
Der shop can be avoided.

Under the auspices of the United

man, has been appointed to prepare
this exhibit.
A limited space has been set aside
in the United States exhibit in sociol-
ogy for this feature. 1t is aimed to
show that 'the people of African
descent in America are civilized, Chris
tanned, possessors of vast education
al privileges. They are owners Of per-
haps half billion dollars worth of
property. They are engaged in every
industry and pursuit common to white
Americans. and universally accredited
with rapid progress. America can
therefore furnish Europe with much
evidence of the negroes value as a la
borer, a producer and citizen. that

wiser in the shaping of its African poi
icies."

REFLECTIONS OF AN ARTIST.
Pictures of "a Poor Quality Are Often
the Nucleus to- a Fine Col
lection.

MANY a nucleus to fine art collec-
tion has been laid in a few pictures of
poor quality" said a weil-known art
connoisseur to a Washington Star re-
porter. whenever a man comes to my
studio, looks over the pictures and buys
the canvas that really pleases him. he
continued, II am fairly well satisfied
that he is destined to make notable
collection if he has the necessary
means, no matter what bad taste or
lack of taste he shows in his first selec-
tions. 1t is only the man who has no
confidence in his own Judgment, and
who buys only what others tell him are
good, for whom / have no hope. The
fact is picture is an educator and the
man or woman who buys one and stud
les it is sure, sooner or later to dis
cover its faults and its fine points, no
matter how blind they were to them at
first and no matter what flimsy trick
of the artist they were attracted by.
"Try it yourself if you doubt the
truth of this assertion. You may know
nothing of art. Buy a picture that
pleases you, hang it where you can see
it daily and look at ii frequently You
will need no instruction to learn wheth-
er it has merit or is filled with defects.
Many an art collector has been edu-
Gated in this way. BY and by the daub
is replaced by better picture, and the
novice instinetively becomes a compe-
tent judge of what is meritorious or bad
