BelIeville, Kan, March "A rep

Blue Rapids. Kan, March 2.-There

increased demand for labor a number
of new families have been coming to

ASSEMBLY GUT OFF
CAPITOL CHANGES
Apparently No Additional Light
Can Be Provided for
Chambers.

Whether or not the Virginia Legls-
lature needs more light upon its de-
alterations or more fresh air upon its
sometimes heated ideas. it is doubt
full if these advantages can be secured
for the next session. The General AS
sembly itself seems to have cut off
these supplies.
il had been planned by the Capitol
Improvement Commission to open two
of the three blind windows at each
end of the Capitol. thus giving each
chamber two additional sources OF
light and ventilation. 1t is understood
that the contract for the work had ac-
tually been let.
The architect says that these win
dows were in the original plan. and
builders are quoted as declaring that
they should be put In.
But the Legislature said by reso-
luton that no further changes should
be made in the main floor OF the
building without the consent of that
body.
Another Encouragement which had
position of The ventilatorg, which are
now far above the heads of the Lieu
Governor and the Speaker. IT
is stated that on the House side, for
instance. this position had totally
failed to appreciably cool the ardor OF
the member from Lunenburg when
making mis- remarks regarding tho
terrible. all-powerful state Board OF
Education"
This being the case, it was deemed
best to put the air shaft close TO the
floor, so that the members could get
cold feet when voting on some of the
propositions which come before them.
Strenuous objection was made to
this proposition, and it seems that 1t
Will go the way Of III windows.
One thing, however, has been secured
by Senator Folkes, who spends a large
part of his time in studying ways and
means Of Capitol Improvement. This
was in effecting the removal of the two
old iron gas pipes. or rather poles
which stood at the rear of the building
They apparently served no purpose
whatever, and the Richmond Senator
after the lapse of five years, has hat
the satisfaction Of seeing them pulled
down.
with this Encouragement, Senator
Folkes says that within the next few
years he may be able to secure the re-
moval of the weeds which have growr
up In front of the Jackson statue.
