LEGISLATIVE GOSSIP
(By Staff Correspondent.) )

Little Rock, Ark, Mar. A com-
 promise was affected today which
 promises to settle the fight that has
 been waged between those favoring the increase of the tax in the St. Francis levee district from six to ten cents an acre, as proposed in a bill by Mir. Hazel, and the supporters of the Killough amendment which fixes the tax at eight cents. Several mem city today and after conference, Mr. Hazel announced in the house that he would accept the Killough amend ment and said it was understood that there would be no objection to the pro- posed additional bond issue of $5O0000 The Killough amendment was then Fadopted by the house.
 Charges against the management Of Nthe affairs of the district were made by sMr. Bush, in the course of speech Bon an amendment offered by him eX- Tempting Craighead county from the apr.eposed tax increase. MT. Bush de- scl ared that is was the opinion of his ape6ple that the money of the district Ahad been recklessly spent. He also Sobjected to the fact that the head Squarters of the district were main staned in Memphis and declared that Ball the money goes to build up that scity instead of Arkansas. He declared Hhat the only object of the bill was Ito raise the salaries of few offic- 1als and provide a greater chance for Sgraft and grab. His amendment ex- Yempting Craighead was not adopted. Another amendment was offered by MT. Killough, providing that the bill Should not go into effect until it was

 The Good BiIl.FiM.
 The senate this afternoon reconsid- cred the vote by which the Goodwin bill, authorizing the state board of education to invest the permanent school fund in school district war rants, passed the body several days ago. Several of the senators declared that they voted for the bill under a misapprehension as to it's merits, and several of it's features were severely criticized. Senator Wingo was espec- l tally severe in this criticism, declaring that the bill was one of the worst that had been introduced and would permit the state school fund to be stolen. The motion to reconsider the bill was adopted and the measure was referred to committee for fur ther consideration, after an attempt to kill it by indefinitely postponins
 
 After the adjournment of the senate, Prof Crawford, superintendent of the Philadelphia schools, approached Senator Wingo and inquired if the references the senator had made re- garding the persons behind the bill, were intended to apply to him. Sen ator Wingo replied that he did not known Prof. Crawford but if the ref erences applied to him, he should consider them so. The discussion seemed about to end in personal en- latOr and educator intervened and the subject was dropped.
 Appropriation Bill.
 The general appropriation bill fo. l the support and maintenance of the state government for the next two years was introduced in the house this ] afternoon by the ways and means committee. The bill is a vOlumous document. It varies little from the appropriation bill of two years ago, the principal changes being ill the ap- proprations made for the state rail road commission. The bill would con- sol date the offices ot secretary and rate clerk and make the stenographer assistant secretary, cutting down the appropriation for salaries in propor- tio. This feature of the bill will be fought, as an effort will be made to show the good that has been accom- plished by the commission as indicat- ing that nothing should be done which would interfere with the work of the body.

 Plea Congress.
 bill was introduced in the senate this morning which is entitled an act to prevent agents from deceiving the public" It provides that all notes, contracts, bonds and similar docr- ments shall be printed in type nO smaller than pica. The bill was in- troduced by Senator Mcknight. It provides that it shall become effect i've after July 1.
 "A Pipe Story"
 Senator Holland introduced bill ill the senate this morning making it unlawful to pipe gas or oil outside the state. The object of the measure is to prevent the Standard Oil and other corporations from invading the oil and gas territory in Sebastian county.
 Extending Session.
 By margin of one vote, the house this afternoon adopted a resolution providing for the extension of the present sesion of the General Assem- bly, to May II, making a sixty day extension. The resolution providing for the extension was offered by Rep- resentative Jackson. It recited that the growth of the state, since the constitution was adopted, had made it impossible for the legislature to con- plete it's work within the limit of the time fixed by the constitution and that, however hard the legislators might work, they could not complete their work in less than four months. Rep- rtsentative Foster offered an amend ment, extending the session thirty days, to April II, but this was voted down after a lengthy discussion Speaker Hamiter, speaking from the floor, declared himself in favor of the sixty day extention, declaring that it would be impossible for the legis- lature to finish the important work before it in less time. The vote on the resolution was 6S ayes and r noes. A two-thirds majority was nec- essary to the adoption of the resolu- tion and 67 votes constitute such a majority. It is believed that the sen- ate will also adopt the resolution, al- though it would reqmre only a few votes in that body to cause it's de- feat It is contended by some that the legislature should adjourn at the reg ular time on March IA, and permit Governor Little to convent the body in special session when he is able to return and take charge of the af- fairs of the executive office again.

Bond Issue.

concurrent resolution was intro duced in the house this morning by proposing an amendment to the state constitution, to permit cities and in corporated towns to issue bonds to secure money for public improvements and authorizing counties to issue bonds for road work This amend ment is similar to the one voted on in the general election two years ago and defeated, except that this one goes further The other amendment provided only for the issuance of bonds by cities of the first and second class for public Improvements. The amendment now proposed is backed by the Arkansas Municipal League which was recently organized in this city.
 The Bribery Laws.
 One of the two bills, strengthen ing the bribery laws of the state, which have been drawn by a special committee appointed for the purpose was introduced ill the senate today by Senator Yopp, a member of the committed The bill provides that it a bribe to influence his vote on any matter and increases the penalty from in the peniJentiary.

With nearly all medicines put up for

About corporal punishment in Eng

pute. One is that while the working

like and resent it and will not in gen.

the ~aristocracy tolerate it without COM

assert paradoxically, when 1t will be
impossible to fog anybody but the son
Of a peer. And the other fact Is that
public school boys have often felt a
special affection for the masters who
have punished them most.
In Westminster abbey stand side
by side the tombs of a master and his
pupil. The master was Dr. Busby,
who was head master Of Westminster
school for so long a time as ffty-eight
a Nobody ever logged so many
boys as he. The pupil was the theo-
logian, DR.. South. It is told-I am
sure the story is true-that when South
came as a small boy to Westminster
Busby greeted him with the ominous
words: 81 see great talents in that
sulky little boy, and my rod shall
bring them out" If so, he was no
doubt as good as his word. But when
South lay upon his deathbed 1t was
his last prayer to be buried at his old
masters feet, and the master and the

turers of prepared cocoandt for donl- estic and other cooking uses. Formerly the house wife who wanted to use co-
 coanut for pies or cakes or puddiags
 used to grate it herself. Now the vast
 majority of all users of cocoanuts buy the manufactured product, all ready prepared for use, and the manufac- ture of this is a trade in which many people find employment
 "Cocoanuts to be used in making
 prepared cocoanut are put a lot of them together into iron crates in
 which they are subjected to steam
 bath, This swells the outside shell g little and at the same time contracts the meat within and tends to separ- ate from the shell,
 From the steam bath the nuts go to the man, who opens the nuts; some times in the steam bath the shells of the nuts, or some of them, may crack,
 which facilitates by so much the
 work of the opened.
 Father used to crack the cocoanut
 with hatchet The professional CO.,
 coanut opener uses an implement that l
 having at one end the heavy iron ham,
 de and at the other end the blade.
 With the heavy end of this the opener taps the coeoanut and cracks, the shell and cracks 1t off, or if any or all of it still adheres to the meat he pries it off with the knife end of the imple-
 ment leaving the round globe of CO., coanut meat unbroken, but still cov- cred with it's familiar brown outer skin.
 Tn these days there are men who
 work regularly at cocoanut opening just as tkey might at any other em- ployment, though one somewhat un- usual feature of the cocoanutopener work is that they begin it at ? a. n.y this so that sufficient stock may be prepared daily in advance for the otll- CT workers to begin on. An expert tocoanut opener can open 2,000 nuts. a day
 rThe shells removed, other workers ktake the whole nut meats and spoke~ shave off that brown outer skin, and then the white round globe of cocoa- nut meat is put into machine and quartered. Tn these quarter sections the meat is inspected for the rejection
 of nuts not sound and sweet, and then 1 it is sterilized, after which 1t is ready l for the various further processes in-
 volved in shredding and drying and otherwise preparing it for the markets
