THE COUNCIL.

The council session embracing only the morning hour was uneventful The committees having them in charge reported favorably upon council bills No. F and 26. The former by President Ives provides for an enlargement of the power of judges in the matter of hear ing in chambers applications for the granting or modification of injunctions, writs of nlandamus, etc. The bill was passed. Mir. Corbctt's bill removing from justices of the peace the func- tions of the coroner and investing them in probate judges is council bill 26. Having been favorably reported Mir Corbett moved that under a suspension of the rules it be passed to the third reading. Objection was made and the bill was ordered engrossed.
 Among the visitors to the legislature were Messrs. Joel H. Johnson and D. H. Morris, members of the Utah legis- lature, who were appointed commits sioners by that body to meet the Ari- zona legislature and endeavor to secure its cooperation in persuading congress to segregate from this territory that strip north of the Colorado and attach it to Utah. The commissioners also
  So far as could he learned they have not yet begun to fulfill their mission; at any rate no memorial looking to the object of their visit was introduced into either house.
 The argument by the commissioners in favor of the transfer is that that country which is embraced in two counties of this territory is really in accessible from either Of them except at two points. The county officials they say, cannot preserve order. and the strip being a part of this territory the Utah officials cannot interfere The further reason advanced for the segregation is that the country, for the most part d good grazing region, is settled by people who regard Utah as their home and that altogether thc strip is d part O: Utah except for an imaginary line.

porting the amendment tock quite different view from that of the objec- tors He said that it would be paid much more willingly if the people knew that it would go to the support of the schools. In his own case he said he had spent the best years of his early manhood doging the poll tax collector. He would have saved himself that eX- ertion if he had known that he had been wanted only to contribute to the cause of education. MT. Mar lar made another motion in favor of :lfs amendment and the chairman mis- understood it to be a motion that the committee rise and report favorably upon the Webb motion. He put it in that shape and it was carried before Mir. Marian had an opportunity to raise an objection. MT. Marian tried again to have his amendment made part of the committee report but failed. The house soon after adjourned.
 In the course of the morning session two messages were received from the governor. One of them transmitted the report of the cretary of the territory which included among other things statement of the receipts and eXpendi- lures of his office during his incum- bency of eighteen months. That is a matter which has been the subject of dispute since the time of holding the county conventions last fall. Popular estimates of the emoluments of the office have ranged from S10, 0G0 to $125.000 q year. It was on this account that the Cow an bill was introduced providing for the transfer of most of the receipts of this office to that of the auditor and thence into the territorial treasury. The report of the secretary shows that in eighteen months the office has re- ceivcd fees amounting to S15.cGO and that the cost of conducting the office mas been in the same time 8 eco.
 There was also q message from the governor containing q communication from Hon. D. F. Francis of the Louis iana Purchase exposition asking the territory to send to the exposition d !ctachmcnt of the national guard. The governor doubted the cXpedienCy of complying with the request on aC- count of the expense it would involve.
 MT. St. Charles who is not a mem Der of the committee on military af- fairs said he knew nothing about d national guard and proposed an amendment of the governors message in favor of the Arizona rangers which organization he knew to exist. The message was not amended and the legislature thereby missed the oppor- tunity of doing something that had never before been done by q legislative body
 The following new bills were brought in: By MT. Woolf. declaring all sec ton lines on public lands public high ways; by MT. Williams. to restrain dogs from running at large; by MT. Rowe. to appropriate $1O.OOO for mon ument to Captain William O. O'Neill; by Mir. Roemer, providing a clerk for the territorial auditor at a salary of $125 a month.

Twelve Months OF Outdoors.

A pleasant account OF outdoor observa-
lions n New England will be found in Mr..
Bradford Torrey's book, The Clerk OF the
Woods Houghton, Mlfflin 4 co.,. Mr..
Torrey divides his story by the months.
reporting in detail the matters peculiar to
each one. May, with which he begins, he
calls the shortest month in the year. Feb
ruary Is at least twice as long, he says.
For a month Is like movement Of SYM
phony; and when we speak Of the length
Of piece Of music we are not thinking
Of the number Of notes in It, but Of the time
1t takes to play them. May Ia a echerzo
and goes like the wind.
He reports lovingly the flowers and the
birds. For instance, walking through a
tract OF woodland, he noticed, to his sur
(tree swallows) busying about their nest
in hole In telegraph pole. Why should
these farm loving. village loving, house
haunting birds, a delight to the eye, and as
innocent as they are beautiful. have estab-
lished their home in the woods? The
answer was ready. He walked on. and by
and by came to village which was overrun
with English sparrows. Nothing but spar
rows. Not bluebird, not tree swallow.
And so 1t Is generally, says Mr.. Torrey,
Still, one Of his fellow townsmen has an
estate which forms bright exception.
.There ore sees bluebirds and martins,
year after year, punctual as the spring
itself. they are back In their old places.
And why? Because the owner Of the estate
by little shooting, mercifully persistent
and therefore seldom necessary, keeps the
English sparrows out. My thanks to him.
His is the only colony of martins anywhere
In my neighborhood.'
In such fashion the pleasant chronicle
goes. The historian Is like Keats, whom
he quotes, who took part in the existence
Of the bird that came before his window
Only 1t was a sparrow that induced this
sentiment In Keats. A little judicious and
merciless shooting for the sparrows when
they crowd out the bluebiris. Perhaps
that may be called taking part In their
existence.
Mr.. Torrey was walking along crowded
sidewalk in Boston. He felt a hand laid
on his shoulder. "A business man, one of
the busiest, should think he must be, had
come up behind me. He was looking
happy. Yes, he said. he was very well
And yesterday he continued, I had a
great pleasure. Isaw my first fox colored
sparrow. and heard him sing No wonder
his face shone."
There is proof Of the joy that is possible
in birds. Mr.. Torrey is loving chronicler
discriminating wisely in the case Of the
sparrows. His book lis good to read.

Bchold Charles Hawtrey Is He Patrolled

the Mustache-HOw We Trumpet
the Praise OF English PlaywriShts.

Literally speaking Charles Hawtrey might
have been called "The Man from Marien-
bad" when he landed here at the beginning
of the present season, for he visited that
famous Bohemian resort last August taking
a course of the waters for his message
from Mars. With the royal guest from
England Mr.. Hawtrey was one of the at
fractions of Marienbad. He wore peaked
Tyrolean hat with a shaving brush at the
back. and he slightly limped, which limp
soon succumbed to the waters.
Perhaps he does not know 1t, but the
actor was mistaken for some mighty and
princely parsonage as he patrolled the
esplanade in the early morning, and was
respectfully followed by concourse Of
oddly attired Galicians in top boots, long
coats and queer caps. But the man from
Bankleys never betrayed by a wink Of
the eye that he was, after tho King Of Eng
land. the subject of so much curiosity.
Stage training does tell in affairs Of this
kind.
