the 8th inst. with three ProhibitiOnists,
1O2 Republicans and IA Democrats in
the Lower House. l.. H. Johnson,
Republican caucus nominee, was elect
ed speaker, receiving also three Pro-
hibition and one Democratic votes.
One member of the Johnson family
was made chief clerk and five others
are members of the House. These
with the Governor and any stray
Johnsons in the Senate ought to make
an occasional family gathering pos
sibility.
The usual number of funny breaks
were made by new members at the
opening session. None of the Prohi-
bition members, however, aspired to
this honor Every member, including
the Prohibitionists, received at the ex-
pense of the state along with his sta
tionery and bill files a pearl-handled
knife, containing a corkscrew and
champagne hook.
The governors biennial message,
read on the second day, contained H.
900 words, one of the longest ever
presented. 1t recommended railroad
freight rate regulation, prohibition OF
roalroad passes except to employees
and a two cent passenger rate. In
| itiative and referendum was given
gingerly endorsement. The more
rigid enforcement of the antitrust
laws was urged and some provision
for public or municipal ownership was
suggested, all of which measures are
demanded in the Prohibition platform
and some of which are not in the
Democratic.
No mention was made of the liquor
traffic except in connection with pure
food laws, although no other ques-
tion had received even approximately
as much attention in the legislative
campaigns of the state. Woman suf-
frage was also entirely avoided.
Among the first resolutions intro
duced in the House was one asking the
governor to submit to the legislature
a special message conveying his
views on county option. This quick
on-the-trigger action was doubtless to
keep the Prohibitionists from getting
any possible honor out of introducing
a county option bill. The mover, who,
fby the way, sat idly by last session
while the county option bill (Which
was introduced "by reQuest') was
brutally butchered without a hearing
for it's life, told Prohibition member
in stormy TRADE against that party
in the lobby of one of the leading
hotels just before the session opened
. that the Republicans were going to
pass county option bill but that Pro
hibitionists would get no credit fol
, it.

CRAZY NEGROES,
JACKSON SAYS
Giles Pours Hot Shot at Those
Who Are Circulating False
Runors.

Giles B. Jackson. the director-gen-
eral of the negro department at the
Jamestown Exposition. was in Rich
mond yesterday. and gave out the fol-
lowing statement for publications:
ut is being circulated throughout
the country by some prejudiced North
ern negroes that the color line is being
drawn at the Exposition Grounds
against colored people. and the negro
exhibit is being Disseminated against
and that there are placards up an
nouncing this.
"These negroes are making it their
business to well circulate these fakes
and misleading rumors everywhere
and have become bitter enemies to the
colored department simply because the
white folks won't let them run away
with the whole show. They must be
crazy.
There is no discrimination down
there, and we are being treated with
every consideration and accorded every
reasonable privilege by the white poo
pie. On the opening day the officers
of the colored department were given
seats in a box In n prominent place
on the stand. The colored people need
not have any fear about attending the
exposition on account of these false
rumors. BY the time of the May OPEN
Ing l will have up some large guide
cards The colored people can enjoy
themselves as much as they want to,
and when they get tired or hungry
there are dining-rooms for them to eat
in and parlors and chambers for them
tO entprtuin and rest In -
Giles left yesterday afternoon for the
Exposition Grounds, where he will re-
main until after the May opening.

WEISS AND SON
ARE DISCHARGED
But They Had to Return Mule
and Two Horses to Former
Owners.

Robert Weiss and his son, Eddie
Weiss, charged with stealing mule
and two horses from farmers in Hem
rico county, We're discharged Saturday
by Squire Tiller, before whom they
were tried.
Weiss and his son have been resi-
dents of tie county only three months.
They had no witnesses to appear in
their behalf and the decision Of the
magistrate was based on their evidence
only. The testimony of the two pris-
oners was to the effect that they had
been approached by a man, who asked
them if they wished to buy any animals
for farming purposes. Taking every
thing in good faith. the elder Weiss re-
piled that he did want horses and
mules for his farm, and later the man
returned with a mule and two horses.
Weiss bought them, without receiving
any ntimation that there was anything
wrong about the transaction. For the
mule he paid s42.50. and for each of the
horses 500. promising $40 more for
the two. The seller never returned to
claim the extra money.
With the exception of Mrs. Weiss
wife of the elder accused, there were
no other witnesses IN the case. Squire
Tiller based his opinion upon the as
sumed honesty of the two prisoners
and of Mrs. Weiss. and it seemed to
be generally satisfactory However, as
possession was porved by Horace Lind
sey for the mule. and by Oscar Olsen
for the two horses, the animals were
ordered by the magistrate to be re-
turned to them.
The result of the trial left Mr.. Weis
minus mule ard two horses, repre-
senting $24250 in cash.

BUSY SESSION OF
COUNCIL TONIGHT
Special joint Committee Will Re-
sumo Investigation To-Mor-
row-Other Matters.

The week in the City Hall will begin
With the regular meeting or the Cons
mon Council tonight at o'clock.
There is the usual large docket of COM
lnittee reports and routine business tic
dispose of, and 1t is not unlikely that
the electric light plant project may
come up in the form of ON ordinance
proposing an instalment appropriation
looking to preliminary work thereon.
The Finance Committee and the Com
m1ttee on Annexed Territory will sub
init reports which will be OF interest.
,'he latter committee recently held an
Executive session. and decided upon
scme action in the nature OF inaugurat-
ing Improvements In the new territory.
An appropriation for two large survey
ing parties Will probably he the first
step. The commencement OF sewerage

neer is also to begin soon. Within two
months. according to the engineer, the
survey will have progressed sufficiently
TO enable much work in the was OF
laying out and opening streets. fixing
grades and laying sewers, water and
gas mains.
The Finance Committee will report
adversely on the recommendation of
| the Fire Commissioners that $4,000
carried in the budget for new engine
be devoted to advancing certain call
men to station men. The Fire Com
pensioners will instead eXpend tho
money for a new engine.

Committee will recommend the distri-
button of tho $4,000 not specially APP
lpropriated in the budget.
Continue Investigation.
On Tuesday night, the Special Joint
Investigating Committee will continue
probing the disagreement between the
Mayor and the Finance Committee, and
lively session Is assured. The feel
ing manifested in tho first hearing
makes it inevitable that spirited pas
sascs will occur unless the commit

outspoken in opposition to the slow
method of legal examination and cross

plan of merely hearing statements from

questions by the Investigating COM
