IN THE HOUSE.
Four Bills Passed and Two Killed al
Yesterdays Afternoon Session.

Next to killing the Calves ton bills, the
most exciting thing done By the house
yesterday afternoon was the reconlnlit-
ting of ThOmpson's bill on cOnsolida-
tion 10 the committee on education.
For days there have been attempts
without number to get this measure up
for consideration, but each time ore
side or the other blocked the game and
h b. 145 remained serenely III It's
place on the calendar until yesterday.
The ants We're all ready 10 jump onto
it yesterday, but the opposition was too
strong and the bill was reCommitted on
motion of the father Of the measure,
Mr.. Thompson. The argument used
was that the senate had just killed a
similar measure--S. b. 70, of which II.
+. las was an exact duplicate, and II
would therefore be useless 10 pass the
bill when the senate had acted ad-
versely on the same matter
The house then took up and passed
the following bills:
