No Appropriation for Monument.

necessity for additional room for the
accommodation of state departments.
the senate committee on state affairs
has favorably reported Il substitute for
this measure. The substitute pro-

is sorely needed.
Another interesting bill that has
been favorably reported by the state
affairs committee is one providing for
the appointment Of state board of
architects and for the examination
and licensing of architects. In addi-
ton to examining candidates for Ii

agreement TO test the new al valorem
tax law. They have agreed. IL is un-
derstoOd, TO tender payment of taxes
on the old specitix tax basis and leave
the state to sue for the balance due
under the al valorem system. 1t will
be remembered that the new law in
creased this years taxes about 81 3O0,-
600 and the companies are naturally
averse to paying the increased amount
If they can avoid doing so. Thus far
the only company TO settle under the
new law is the Wabash, which has
paid the full amount of the al valor-
EN- levy for the very good reason that
IL was about 81 900 less than the COM
pany paid under the specific tax law
last year. The tax of every other
company is materially increased UNI
der the new law. The constitutional
ity of the law and the validity of the
assessment will both be tested. it is
expected, in the contemplated pro-
ceedings.

BOYS TO GO
TO FARMING.
VIII Be Put to Work at the
Orphdnage.
AN INTERESTING SCHEME,
Preparations Being Made to Take in
About Two Hundred More Chill
dren - Many Applications
Are Coming In.

AS the winter begins to break and the
time for the spring planting draws near.
preparations are being made to Institute
farm work among the children OF the
Methodist Orphanage in this city.
It is the purpose OF Superintendent
Mastin ana the others engaged In the or
phanage work to give tho boys some
practical instruction how to be farmers.
At tho same time that they will be In
structcd these same youngsters will pro-
vide the wherewlthal upon which to live
and with which to supply the insutu-
ton with provisions. A large tract OF
seventy-flvc acres surrounds the or
phanage, and material has Just been OBJ
tained for fencing 1t In. Then the place
will be cross-fenced and seed will be
planted Hay, vegetables and so IN
will be raised. The boys old enough will
be put into the field to work. An ex-
perienced farmer will be placed at the
head OF 1t all.
The farm will serve three-fo,d pur-
pose, BY means of it practical instruc-
ton in agricultural pursuits will be CIV
en- the boys: provisions will be provided
for the orphanage. and it will be more or
less OF q source of revenue. The stun
raised in excess Of the amount needed
for consumption will be sold. The boys
will be sent into the city TO dispose OF
it.
1t will soon be possible for tho orphan
age to receive from $50 to 300 more chill
dren. The administration building will
be completed In about o month, and by
the LIST Of May. the close Of the or
phanage year. things will be in readiness.
A great crowd OF children who are clam
oring for admission will DO taken In and
work will begin in real earnest
AT the present time there are about
thirty little ones domiciled at the place.
Applications are beng received daily
in large number. Five Of them came in
yesterday morning In one batch. Two
new children have come this week al
ready. Others will be accepted from
time to time.
Life at the orphanage is all that could
be asked. The location is a most at
tractive one, The children seem to be
.s - py-better off than many OF them
VIE ever been before.

MEETING THURSDAY.

u
On Thursday afternoon the Committee
bly,. which committee has Its headQuar.
ters In this city, met in regular monthly
session and transacted various matters
Of interest and Importance to the church.
1t was at this time that the scheme re-
ferred to above came into being.
Mt. John n. scribner. Of Philadelphia,
business manager for the publication
house Of the Northern church, was pres
emit on social and fraternal visit and
In the interest OF the new movement.
He made statement, and the matter
was discussed in the committee. It was
seen by all that the plan was wise one
and the thing was fixed up. Mr.. Scrtb-
ner left Thursday night after pleasant
and successful stay.
AS result Of the arrangement tho
two houses, as stated by the treasurer
Of the committee yesterday. will be
brought into closer reciprocal relations.
IT is frequently the case that each house
will get together and the same plates
will be used by each. though under dis
tinct imprints. Of course. In this way
a Single corps Of editors and compositors
Will serve for both. It s a business
scheme. the value OF which can be seen
committee will enjoy certain advantages
It has not heretofore possessed. The
Northern house Is large and powerful
concern, and can hold out to an author
great clrculation: the best the house
here can do is to offer restricted field.
Acting together. however. the two will
possess unusual facilities. and the
Southern committee will thus come in
for much 1t has not up to- this time
been able to secure.
REMARKABLE INCREASE.
Another thing at the meeting distin-
guished 1t as most interesting one.
Reports for the nine months Of the year
now gone were made and 1t was shown
that there has been the remarkable In
crease Of forty per cent In the volume
Of business over the corresponding period
| in last year. This was indeed encourag-
ing. The great advance Is attributed
| chiefly to jCdicious advertising. DR..
Phillips has been using all the church
papers and has been visiting the differ
| nittee before them. The Increase Is one
Of the results OF these labors.
THE NEW BUILDING.
With reference to the new building for
the committee nothing definite has been
decided. A special committee Is now at
work upon the matter, and Is consider
| ing various plans and suggestions that
are before 1t.
Only ono thing. It is said, has been
positively decided and that is to build
on the site at Sixth and Grace Streets,
now occupied by the Randolph home
stead. Just what sort of structure Will
be erected is the matter still unsettled.
The suggestion has been made that the
committee will leave the old house stand
and build to the rear OF It. It appears
Just as likely, however. that the resi-
dence will be torn down and a large
building, covering the entire lot, will be
put up.
