APPROPRIATION BILL PASSED.
House Disposed of 1t in Record-Rreak.
ing Time Tuesday.

Atlanta, August I'm record time
the house Tuesday concluded its work
on the general appropriations bill, and
put it in shape to be sent over to the
this measure has required from three
senate. Usually consideration of
this measure has required from three
to five days; the house has disposed
of 1t in two, and the senate will now
| find itself with plenty of work without
further complaining about a lack of
| it.
BY an Unexpectedly large majority
the house readily granted the request
| OF the state militia for an increase of
| $4,000 in the annual appropriation for
the years 1906 and 1907, and for the
next two years the state troops will
| receive from the state to aid them in
completing their equipment, and pay
| ing other expenses, the sum of $4S, 900.
This appropriation was strongly resist
| ed by DR.. Kelly, of Glascock, who
fought it on the ground that it is un-
necessary and deprivation to more
important state institutions, but the
house finally put it through by the
vote of 81 to 20
AS small an item as it is, the approA
priation of $4,000 for farmers insti-
tutes brought on the longest and most
determined debate of the session. Sew
eral members opposed it, among them
Mr.. Hall, of Bibb, who declared that
it could not be constitutionally car.
ried in the general appropriations bill.
The committee had left it out of the
bill, but the house put it back with
comparatively few dissenting voices.
The million dollar appropriation for
common schools and the $89000O for
pensions were passed without a word
being raised in protest They went
through by common consent and tacit
agreement that they should not be dis
turbed.

MlLLET'S INFLUENCE.
A Host of Painters Followed Him In
Depicting Peasant Life.

A Host of Painters Followed Him In
Depicting Peasant Life.
In his own words NIillet tried to de-
pict ''the fundamental side of men and
things" His subject was the peasant
life-not the representation of it such
as one sees in opera or the pretty, SEN
timental aspect of it, but the actual
drama of labor continuously proceed
ing through the four seasons, the 'cry
of the soui," echoing in the hearts of
, the patient, pIodding. God fearing toll
ers. Everything was typical. We have
spoken of his "Sower." Of another pic
, ture the critic Castagnary wrote: DO
/ you remember his Reaper? He might
have reaped the whole earthl'
Everything that Millet did was full
of deep seriousness and sincerity. He
never was an easy painter, so that
his greatness as an artist is perhaps
more clear in the black and white than
I in the colored subjects. Certainly IN
+, his crayon drawings, Autographs and
/ etchings he proved himself to be one
: of that limited number of artists who
may be reckoned master craftsmen
Moreover, the character that he ex
presses is of that grand and elementa
quality which sometimes reminds us oil
Michael Angelo.
Millets influence produced a host oi
painters of the peasant, among whom
the strongest are the Frenchman LHer
mite and Israels, the Dutchman These
/ like him, have represented their sub
| ject with sympathy and with under
standing also.-St. Nicholas.

Al pool of blood in the factory showed
where the crime was committed.

Gunboat Bennington.
San Francisco, August "A special
dispatch to the Call from Sandiego.
Cal, says:
From an official source, the reliabil-
ity of which cannot be questioned, be-
cause of its connection with the court
itself, it has just become known what
in substance will be the report of the
court of inquiry now investigating the
Bennington disaster. 1t may be stated
authoritatively that the court will find
that boiler "B" of the Bennington ex~
ploded not because of unusually high
pressure, but because the metal of the
crown-sheet and the bolts holding that
crown-sheet in place had become
dead" had lost all life and nearly all
tensile strength by reason of constant
use and the failure to renew the weak
ened place during the twenty years
that the ill-fated Bennington was in
service. The court will not censure
the officers of the Bennington, but will
pass up the matter and the RESPONSE
bility to higher authority,
