The Legislature.

Fully 400 of the bills introduced in the
Kentucky House at this session are dead
because of non-action.
Representative Rigdon's bill to require
hucksters to pay license was tabled in
the House at Frankfort.
The Kentucky Senate Friday passed
the bill prohibiting the co-education of the
races in the State, and it is now ready to
be signed by the Governor.
There was no better or more important
bill passed by the present Legislature than
the one imposing a death penalty or life
Imprisonment upon burglars who wound
or attempt to wound inmates of the house

The Alverson House bill providing for
the punishment of vagrants was taken up
and discussed in the Senate and passed
unanimously, as was the House bill pro-

The duty of the officer is to require chill
dren between the ages of seven and four

The House bill, providing for the sepa-
rate management of colored and white
graded schools in cities of the fourth ella S

during the present session places the
figures at 81 100000.
