After once having been reported up

the bill against the pumping of natural

wells are located. The action was
taken on the report Of the committee.

The bill was introduced into the
house by Representative Coahran of
Madison county The measure not
only prohibited pumping gas outside
of the county in which the wells are
located, but forbade the use Of artifi-

the flow. The Richmond company Sc

have shut off the company's supply
and left the city without natural gas

KiRKMAN OPPOSED THE
PASSAGE OF THE BILL
Gave as His Reasons the Fact
That He Did Not Know How
His Constituents Stood on
The Question.
Palladium Bureau,
IndianaooIis, Feb, "a,

indianapolis, Feb. -.
BY the vote of 80 to 18. the senate
today passed the Sunday base ball
bill. Kirkman, of Wayne and Union
voted with the minority. The meas
ure is now up to the governor for his
signature or veto. There is a divid-
ed sentiment as to his probable ac-
tion, but friends of the measure are
hopeful since his assertion that he
does not make the laws and if the
legislature cares to assume the re-
sponsibility for any measure, it may
do so.
Time Set for Play.
The base ball bill was known as a
measure permitting Sunday amuse-
ments. 1t provides, that base ball
may be played on Sunday between
the hours of and 6 o'clock D. m and
out within ] 900 feet of any church or
edificer used for the purpose of pub
lie worship.
kirkman Gives Reasons.
Senator kirkman has explained his
stand on the measure by saying he
two counties. He knows
there are many persons in each who
are in favor of Sunday base ball and
many who are opposed. He claims
he has no way to know the opinion
of the majority and for this reason
has been guided by his own opinion.

Effects of Cold on Mines.

From experiments made in France
in the employment of artificial refrig-
Grafton in w~inemaking the following
conclusions have been drawn: Grapes
may be kept at a temperature of %
degrees r. for a year, but it is not
advisable to keep them longer than a
few months because Of the inevitable
softening Of the seeds. In the clari-
fication of liquors and their prepara-
ton for expectation to cold climates
very good results are obtained by cool
ing to 20 degrees F. for seventy-two
hours. Cold affects wine by precipi-
tating excess of tartar and, with this,
the oxytannins, albuminoids, pectates
and certain alumina and iron COM
pounds which the wine holds in sus-
pension. P%athogenic microbes are rem
dered inert and carried down with the
lees. Applied to sparkling wines, cold
increases the quantity of carbonic
acid dissolved without injuring the
quality.-Scientifc American.
