Kansas State Legislature Formally Ends
Session.
54A BILLS ENACTED into LAW.
Out of a Total Of 1908 Bills Intro
duced in the House of Representa-
tives During the Past Session osS
Were Killed.

sion of the Kansas legislature is now
a matter of history. 1t went out OF
business at 10 o'clock on March TO-
eFive entatives-Stubbs, Le-
land, Bird, Stone and Murphy-and
two senators-Smith, of Edwards, and
Dolley-attended the obsequies. Gov
ernor Hoch signed the miscellaneous
bill the first thing this morning. That
cleaned up all the bills before him.
Lieutenant Governor Hanna and
Speaker Stubs got together and de-
cided to wind things up quickly. I'm
der a resolution both branches were
to adjourn at noon. Hanna and Stubs
turned the clocks up to meet the
emergency. Hanna appointed Smith
and Dolley and Stubs appointed
Bird, Stone and Murphy as a joint
committee to wait upon the governor
and ascertain if he had any more mes
sages for the legislature. The COM
mittee reported that the governor had
none.
What is the pleasure of the
house?' asked Stubs.
move we adjourn sine die,
said Leland.
The motion was put and carried and
Stubs dropped the gavel
Governor Hanna put the same ques-
ton in the senate at the same time
and it carried unanimously. This
ended the most important and salts
factory session of the legislature
Kansas has ever had.
There were 1,OOS bills introduced
in the house and 954 in the senate, a
total of 1862. Of this number 544
were enacted into law. This includes
bills and resolutions. The session
laws of two years ago contained SAT
laws and resolutions, or three more
than the laws of this session will con-
tain But the 1905 book will be lar
ger than the 1903 book, because the
laws contain more words. 1t will take
almost 100 pages to print the negoti-
able instrument law. The board OF
control law and the railroad law will
also take up a lot of space The drain
age bill will take at least thirty
pages.
Out of total of zoos bills intro
duced in the house of representatives
during the past session, 699 were
killed.
An examination of the records
shows that larger proportion of the
bills introduced early in the session
were slaughtered than in the latter
portion. This goes to show that the
theory that bill must be introduced
early in order to stand much show OF
passage is mistake. The reason
more of the early bills were killed is
because ali of the early bills were Of
ten jumped over the committees, or at
best considered very hastily.

The catalepsy was so prolonged that
he was pronounced dead and removed
to the mortuary. When the coolie at
tendants came to prepare his body
for burial they handled him roughly
and his head came in contact with
the stone slab on which he was laid.
The shock broke the spell and reused
him to life again. The coolies all fled
and Kelly had to free himself from
his grave clothes. He was fully con-
scious of all that happened when in
state of catalepsy, but was unable to
move or speak.

P eace ENJOYS
Clasp Hands

Oyster Bay, N. Y, Aug. s.
History was made today in Oys-
ter Bay. Russiana and Japanese
clasped hands and greeted one
another with ali outwards evil
dence of cordiality, and for the
first time since nations began to
have relations one with another,
an executive of a great power re-
ceived the ENJOYS of two belllger-
emit countries on mission ofpeace.
President Roosevelt on behalf
of the United States and its
people extended formal greeting
to representatives of Russia and
Japan, introduced the plenipoten-
tiaries to one another and enter
tanned them at an elaborate
luncheon, at which Russians and
Japanese fraternized with one an
other as comrades, rather than as
enemies.
During the luncheon President
Roosevelt proposed a notable
toast in which he expressed the
earnest hope and prayer, in the
interest not only of these two
great powers. but of all civilized
mankind, that just and lasting
peace may speedily be concluded
between them.

New Orleans, August The
report today is a great improve
ment over those during the mid.
die of the week, and the fact that
there were only two new subfoci,
one uptown and one down town,
is a source of special encourage
ment. An effort is being made

cases of fever under treatment
and allowing ten days, which is
a liberal estimate for a patient
to either recover or die, it is fig
ured that there are now 233 cases
under treatment.

has not yet assumed control of
the local situation, but it is ex-

sumption, that the citizens of
