Ella was looking particularly sweet

tone. She walked close to him in the
night, so close that he felt her hand
brush against his, and he blushed and

saw who her visitor was, but asked
him in at once.
He followed her back through the

rag carpeted sitting room. He was

basis sent to the General Assembly of
the United Presbyterian Church for
adoption. This basis is a modification
of the basis proposed by the United
Presbyterian General Assembly last
year. The notifications are technical,
but brought out much discussion. The
Associated Reformed Church objects to
subscribing to the article of faith re-
ferring to slavery and the committee
recommends that this objection be
sustained and be held in allegiance"
inasmuch as these social conditions no
longer exist. Dr. Mcfarland of Musk

ed this, stating the adoption of ii was
equivalent to saying the United Pres

SESSION OF LEGISLATURE
WILL NOT BE ILLEGAL.

Opinion Requested.

SO Attorney General Hart Says in an
Opinion Requested.
Atlanta, Ga, May 30.-Attorney Cen
eral John c. Hart, to-day rendered an
opinion in reply to a letter from State
Treasurer Park to the effect that the
coming session of the Legislature will
not be illegal or unconstitutional.
AS the result of interrogations from
many sources and the threat that if
he did not take the matter I'D some
one else would, Capt. Park wrote to
Attorney General Hart, and asked him
If there was anything in the constitu-
ton or the laws of the state which
would prevent the Legislature from
holding three sessions, the present Leg
islature holding the third session on
account of having changed the meet
ing date to June instead Of October.
Treasurer Park wanted to be salts
fed about the matter before paving
out money for the per diems Of the
members, and for expenses. Attorney
General Hart, in his reply. went fully
into the law, both constitutional ana
otherwise, and said he could find moth
ing in either that could cast any doubr
whatever upon the legality of the COM
ing session.
The members of the Legislature may
therefore, rest easy. as they will diaw
their pay without any question.

Maseline Green read an essay on Lit
tie Things" in which she called at
tention to the part that apparently in
significant things have played In the
history of the world. She closed with
an exhortation to watch the little
things and the great things would take
care of themselves.
The subject of the essay by Ophelia

The essential for success. she claimed,

Heard Taft Make speech on cues

Topeka, Kan, May S0.-Topeka was
decorated in holiday attire to-day in
honor of her semi-centennial, and there
were great crowds here.
Secretary of War Taft was the orator
of the day. Speaking of the Kansas
Nebraska bill, he said: I'VE rejoice to-
day in the fact that the bill which was
enacted into law fifty years ago, in
stead of accomplishing the purpose of
those who voted for il. marks the be-
ginning of the end of the controversy
which eliminated from our social sys-
TEN the capcer of human slavery. and
permits us as citizens of the United
States to look the world in the face
when we proclaim our national love of
freedom and civil liberty.
The Kansas-Nebraska bill was the
last great step of the slave power. be-
fore actual secession which showed to u
doubtful and hesitating North the ex-
tremity to which the institution of sla-
very could bring its supporters, and it
reused the North to a state of v!rtuous
excitement which three decades of alb
clifton propaganda had failed to stir. :"
