Legislative Notes.

Speaker Cheney spoke plainly about
the length of this session and the ne
cessity of staying here to work during
election week. Out in the lobby
member was saying, eff Cheney wants
to get through with the session, why
does he refer practically every bill to
few favorable committees and leave
the rest of US with nothing to do?"
Things are not done on party lines in
the house, although Howe, democrat
from St. Johnsbury, killed a bill in
troduced by Howe, a republican from
Bennington.
| Most of the legislators went up to
Intercity Park Wednesday and saw
fine football game between Norwich
university and Vermont university.
Both these Universities receive state
aid and it was very proper that the
Legislators should be given chance to
see them in action.
One senator made an impassioned
plea for the adjournment over election
on the ground that Tuesday was the
turning day of crisis in which our
country has been plunged. He declared
| it to be every true Vermonter's
duty to go home and vote. If Vermont
should happen to have gone democrat
ic his position would have been JUST
!. fed.
Senator Gleason of Caledonia favored
: the adjournment because he believe {
!, it the duty of each member to con-
!, suit with his constituents occasionally
, and he could see more Of them on cleo
ton day than on any other day. II
view Of the fact that the senate was
not especially needed here for day o.
two, his remarks were sensible.
The committee bill providing q
license for every hunter. both resident
:, and non resident, was ordered to !;
third reading in the senate, upon thu
!. strength of the committee report

Immediately moved to reconsider. /

New York. Nov. 12.-Harvey M.
Watterson, lawyer and younger son
Of Henry Watterson, editor of the
Louisville Courier Journal, plunged to
his death from the nineteenth floor of
his office building at 81 Wall street.

and landed on the roof of a ten-story
building adjoining. Almost every
bone was broken, the head was
crushed and death was practically in
Simultaneous.
While there were no eyewitnesses
to the tragedy, evidently it was en-
tirely accidental. Mr.. Watterson's
hat and overcoat were on his closed
desk. Presumably he had attempted
to lower the window and either stun
bling over the radiator, which was in
front of the low. sill, or losing his
footing in some manner unknown,
pitched forward and down to death on
the roof below.

OFFICIAL NOTICE GIVEN
Chinese Emperor and Oowager
Empress Dead.

Picking, Nov. 16.-Tsze Hsi An, the
iowager empress of China, the auto
cratic head of the government which
she had directed without successful
interference since 1861 and without
protests since 1881, is dead.
The announcement of the dowager
empress death was official and fol-
lowed closely upon the announcement
that Kwang Hsu, the emperor, had
died at 5 o'clock Saturday afternoon,
but it is believed that the deaths of
both the emperor and the dowager
empress occurred a considerable time
before that set down in the official
statements.
! An edict issued following the death
of the dowager empress placed upon
the throne Prince Pu vi, the three
year-old son of Prince Chun, regent
of the empire, in accordance with a
promise given by the dowager en-
press soon after the marriage of
Prince Chun in 1903. An edict issued
on Friday made Pu vi heir presump-
tive.
The foreign legations we're notified
by the foreign board of the death of
the emperor and the succession of
Prince Pu vi.

singen, real estate dealer for years
classed among the first of Chicago's

In tears confessed that for from eigh-
teen to twenty years he had been Sc
curing money through the sale OF

The loss of prestige 1t suffered during the past season, however. make the process of rehabilitation slow, Mir. Bel mon believed
 With regard to tho prospect of rac- ing next year" said Mir Belmont, "no one could make a statement that Ia of any value Thc various questions which were raised during the racing season just closed arc now before tho courts No one will venture to either take eteps toward a definite program for next year or predict what will tako place until the courts have passed upon the broad question of tho laws appli- cation
 Governor Hughes has stated at va rious times during the campaign on the stump that he was not against horse racing but tho contrary, and whatever the courts decide will doubtless be ac- cetped by the governor as conclusive. The laws attitude now applies to all alike on or off the race course
 "rhe rehabilitation of racing in this state will be slow because t has suf- rered in prestige as a sport; but am firmly convinced 1t will be re-establish- ed as a ccan, healthful and beneficial pastime"
