What the Legislature is Doing.

WI S0k AMS ASkA0e9tBbN - WVSuKe
The Doussan bill for state pro-
hibitiOn has been defeated in
the House by a vote of SO to AZ.
The Shattuck high license bill
passed by 90 to Is.
The bill raising the salary of
the Superintendent of Educa-
ton has passed both Houses.
Friends of the Locke anti
racetrack gambling bill claim a
small but safe majority. Should
a tie vote occur, LIT. Gov. Lam
Fremont takes the position that
he could not vote, as the cOnsti-
tuition calls for a majority Of
senator's, and he is not q senator.
A favorable report has been
made by the House Committee
on State Indebtedness on House
Bill No. 100, by Mr.. Thomas, to
carry into effect the proposed
amendment to article As of the
Constitution of 1893 providing
for the issue of $11, 100000 of
the bonds of the State of Louis,
lana for the purpose of liquida-
ting the States bonded indeb-
tedness, consisting of new con-
soils and constitutional bonds
maturing Jan. l. 1914.
A compromise is reported be-
tween Miss Jean Gordon and
the milling interests whereby
the plea for fewer hours for
women and children is yielded
provided the age for boy is rails.
ed to IA years.
The Marston anti-futures bill
has been unfavorably reported.
City Attorney Gilmore will
get fee of $4,000 for his as
sistance as state counsel in the
port investigation commissions
work.
The Legislature believes in
the influence of names and
rightly. The State ReformatOry
will probably be called Louisiana
Training Institute, and the
state schools for the blind and
deaf will be so called, elimina-
ting the suggestion of their be-
ing in any sense asylums for the
afflicted.
The charge Of q bribery fund
! in the interests of the racetrack,
as reported by the city press
which caused a session of the
East Baton Rouge Grand Jury.
at the instance of Gov. Sanders,
proved unfounded. The legisla-
ture and all concerned were Civ
en-, as it were, certificates of
good character by the said
Grand Jury, except the Item,
one of the newspapers printing
the report, which was treated to
quite a lecture. The report it
seems emanated from A. G.
Cook, a clerk of the Senate, who
had heard it," With these men
tenioned as scropegoats, the
matter rests.

A bill to force railroads to
fence in their lines will be intro
duced in the legislature. An
exchange says that the railroad
lobby has hitherto prevented
such legislation. 1t will be in,
teresting to observe it's fate in
the present unlobbied House.

Park City. The man proceeded to beat
and kick the woman into lnsensibility
and six hours later she died
The exact cause of death is at pre-
sent in debate. At the inquest 1t de-
veloped that the mouth and throat
of the woman showed signs of drug
or acid having been administered.
Black and blue marks were found on
the body and the authorities are in
clined to the belief that death resulted
from the beating.
Swetman denied last night that he
beat his wife. Mrs. Urban's statement
10 the contrary Notwithstanding. The

and adds another thriller TO current
literature. o. ID. Banks & Co. and
officer Staines OF the city police force
are the actors, and their stunt" is the
fling OF demurrer IN the city court
TO tho complaint OF Elizabeth Adams
who is suing them for $500 damages
The complaint of Miss Adams alleged
that Officer Staines, with an agent and
representative OF the said millinery
firm, went TO her apartments at the
Metropole hotel at IL o'clock one night
and awakening her from her restful
reposo, demanded the sum OF 5000 in
payment for hat for which she claims
she agreed 10 pay only the sum Of $3.50.
The demurrer sets out that the com
plaint ~ not sufficiently explicit, In that
1t does not state in what manner the
defendants committed trespass. or IN

BLIND MAN ATTEMPTS SUICIDE.
Victim of Mine Explosion Dashes Head
Into Wall in Office Building.

Mike Brown. while apparently In q
demented condition, attempted TO kill
himself this afternoon in the Scott
Auerbach building shortly after leav-
ing the offices of Weber & Olsen. That
he did not kill himself was due to
prompt action on the part of several
persons, Brown being a large man and
of very powerful build Brown was
badly injured in an explosion in the
Tintic Mine & Development company's
property in March OF 1907. He was
rendered blind as the result of his in
juries and entered suit against the
company for damages. He lost his SUIT
but a settlement was to have been
made. Upon the advice of his attorneys
he refused to accept the settlement and
was evidently carrying out further
plans when he became deranged. he
had left the offices of his attorneys and
was passing through the hall of the
building. All of sudden he dashed
his head into the walls of the hallway
and before he was oyerpowered ne had
broken a hole In the wall large enough
for his head to penetrate. Officers
Johnston, Ripley, Harris, Goldtng and
Riley responded with the patrol wagon
to a call from the building and after
a fierce struggle he was lodged In the
county Jail to await hearing. At the
Jail he begged attendants to cut his
throat, but was not so violent as he
had been when In the office building.
The mans actions caused large
crowd to gather in and about the Of
fee building and so dense did the
crowds become that the officers had
difficulty In getting their man across
the sidewalk and into the patrol wagon.

MORAN GETS BUSY
He is Not Resurfacing Main Street as
Proposed by the Tribune
Simply Patching II.

Patrick j. Moran. the famous street
closed coneractor, is now busy at work
with his buckets of asphalt and rollers
of steam power. not resurfacing Main
street, but repairing 1t wherever the
present pavement is in need of fixing,
which is about every other square foot.
This is work which a few weeks ago
the American" party persuaders were
declaring that they would make the
property owners sweat before allowing
to be done. Their characteristic
claim that the 'hierarch" was at the
bottom of it all was quickly abandoned
on the discovery that many good vot-
ers OF their own party were in the ma
Jority of the professionals. and now
comes further action in the abandon-
ment of a fight even on the professionals,
while the work of fixing up the streets
surface is delayed no longer pending
the effort to convince the public that 1t
ought to be entirely resurfaced.
BY tomorrow night the street should
be in good repair. or as good as the
brittle tar residum and sand mixture
styled California asphalt, because II
smells bad and looks like tar" can
make 1t.
