Oklahoma City, Feb. %. - Immed-
lately after converting today the
house went into committee Of the
whole and took up the big appropria-
ton bills.
Strong opposition to the appropri-
alton Of large sums for the different
state institutions was manifested.
The first bill attacked was the one
appropriating 100000 for the dormi-
tory for the Ada normal. Anthony
Of NARROW, and Maxey Of Shawnee,
opposed the measure and the former
offered an amendment to strike out
the clause making the appropriation.
The amendment carried by large
majority, practically killing the bill.
Roll calls on bills Of local interest
occupied nearly all Of the morning
session Of the senate.

GAVE HIS LIFE TO HIS SISTER.
From Cornwalrs Charles Lamb. ."
The fact that distinguishes Charles
Lamb from other men was his entire
devotion to one grand and tender pur-
pose. There is, probably, romance
involved in every life. In his life, It
exceeded that Of others. In gravity
in aeuteness, in his noble battel with
a great calamity, it was beyond the
rest. Neither pleasure nor toll ever
distracted him from his holy purpose.
Everything was made subservient to it
He had an insane sister, who IN a
moment Of uncomfortable madness,
had unconsiously destroyed her own
mother; and to protect and save this
sister-a gentlewoman, who had
watched like a mother over his infancy
the whole length Of his life was
devoted. What he endured, through
the space Of nearly forty years, from

EDUCATION
MEASURE
FRAMED
House Leaders Agree on
Bill After Conference
With CruCe

Oklahoma City, Feb. %. AT a
conference held Wednesday night be-
tween Governor Lee Cruce and the
educational committee Of the house
Of representatives, the details Of a
bill giving more power to the state
board of education were agreed upon.
A subcommittee was appointed to
draft the bill which will be introduced
into the house Thursday morning.
The bill gives to the state board Of
education complete and direct con-
troll over all higher educational insti-
tutions, Of the state, except the Agri-
cuitural and Mechanical college at
Saltwater. 1t will do away with
eleven boards Of regents Of the other
educational institutions, placing the
schools under one board The bill is
said to have the complete endorse
ment of Governor Cruce and to meet
exactly his ideas of the way educa-
tional institutions should be managed,
Some time ago, an educational bill
was introduced into the senate but did
as much power as provided in the
house measure. The proposed board
in the senate bill would have five
members, who should have general
supervision. Of the schools in matters
pertaining to the curriculum, educa-
tional departments and the like. II
would not have done away with the
boards of regents.
The educational institutions which
will come under the provisions Of the
bill and be affected by it are the Uni
versiy Of Oklahoma at Norman, the
six state normal schools, at Edmond
Alva, Weatherford, Tahlequah, Ada
and Tishomingo, the schools for tht
blind. the boys and girls industria
schools, and the district agriculture
schools.
1t is certain that the bill will bs
strongly opposed by some of thi
schools concerned. The state univer
sity probably will be the leader in thii
fight, as one Of the chief aims Of tha
school has been to get away from th'
other institutions in both management
and financial support. Another ain
of the school and its alumni is to hay,
board Of regents, with half or NOR
Of the members selected from TIL
alumni Of the institution.
