Reappropriation Bill Passed.

The senate yesterday passed the bill reappropriating the unexpend- ed balance of the funds appropti- ated two years ago for the mainte- nance of the State Normal School for this session. AS the constitu- ton forbids appropriations being made for a longer period than two years, the money would have re- verted to the state treasury on May I4, and the school would have been compelled to close for the session. This difficulty will not be encountered two years hence, as the appropriations of this ses- sion are for a period of two years from July I, 1909.
