600 bond issue OF the Chicago & Al

The legislature passed on Feb. 22,
1900. a bill to permit the 125 savings
s,ks Of this state to invest i'm the
bonds OF the Chicago q Alton Rail-
road company.

Washington, Mar. Both houses
of congress met at 800 today for the
last sitting of the last session of the
Fifty-ninth congress. The attend
ance was slim, both in the house and
in the senate, and those present show
ed signs of failure, due to an almost
continuous meeting since last Satur-
day morning. The house proceeded
as If the entire session were still be-
fore it, but the senate finding itself
without a quorum and with all neces-
sary routine business disposed of,
took a recess a few minutes after as
sembling, and 1t was at once evident
that there would be no further seri-
Gus effort to secure action on the ship
subsidy bill or upon any other dis
puted measure.
The only important measure be-
sides the ship subsidy bill, which was
"in air." was La Follette's railroad
employees bill.

ENGAGE IN FRENCH
DUEL

Last Friday, Leandro Armijo and
Pantalio Ribera. Of Las Palomas.
were arraigned before Judge Thomas
Ribera, this precinct, upon a charge
of assault with intent to kill, says the
Sierra County Advocate. The charge
against Leandro Arimjo was institLt-
ed by his wife, and the charge against
Ribera was instituted by Armljo
Armijo waived examination and gave
bond for his appearance before the
next gr4~d jury in the sum of $1,000.
Pantalio Ribera was bound over in
the same amount, but failing to raise
the required bond, he was confined in
the county jail. The affair seems to
be the outcome of a family row. 1t
is alleged that Armijo claims that
spon his return home late one night
he found Ribera In his wife's bed
room, but the accusation Is stoutly
denied by Mrs. Armijo. According
70 the story, when ATmljo entered
his house he and Ribera engaged
themselves in a Franch duel, seyeral
shots being exchanged, neither OF the
duelsts being injured. II is elaine i
that Armijo stated he intended TO kill
both his wife and Ribera, but having
failed 10 get his man, he spared the
Woman's life. Mrs. ArmijO started
divorce proceedings against her nus
band but later withdrew the suit.
