1T should not be expected that
the legislature would pass an
anti-lobbying bill. In the first
place it would knock too many
people out of good jobs. In the
next place the representatives
would not have an opportunity to
be assured of much of their sup
port if they ever come before the
people again for election.

VIZ see it stated in some OF the
papers that the legislature is not
as bad as it looks, to view what
it does from a distance. Let US
hope that such a statement is
true; that lobbyists Of the trusts
and railroads are responsible for
some of the things that is being
said about it. and wemight also
hope that somebody besides the
men we voted for were the au-
thors of some of the fool meas
ures that find their way into the

plentiful enough to furnish an average
of one drink for every three Germans.

that it takes three men to get one drink

NOUS or, rather, infamous, for kind
of wine known as the 'dreimanner-
wein," because it requires one man to
drink it, Il second to hold him and
third to pour it down his throat. Here
also is located Germuny's first and
only colonial school, founded by some
wealthy adherents of the colonial pol
icy on which Emperor William has just
won a victory over the Socialists III the
reichstag. The school was opened in
1880, with room for seventy students,
which Is not nearly enough for all who
apply. A special feature Is the segre

When you get married, have 1t done

second fiddle at your wedding, but it's

all that sort of thing detract from the

however, Is none Of your affair. The

of q wife, and Il man stands a mighty
poor chance Of permanent happiness
who banks on 1t alone. 1t isn't always

at the penitentiary here last Saturday
night, in accordance with the sentence
passed on him by Judge Stevens OF the

At exactly twenty-eight minutes past
seven the fatal trap was sprung and
McGarvey paid the supreme penalty OF
the land for his crimes. The execu-
ton took place in the presence OF the
officers of the prison and such invited
guests of the warden as are permitted
under the statutes of Colorado to be
spectators of such affairs. Fifteen
minutes before the hanging occurred,
the witnesses, under the leadership OF
Warden Cleghorn proceeded in a SOL

was receiving from Father Chrysos-
