A bill by Burke Of Sanna, calling
for the absolute repeal OF the m

ported by the committee on taxa

they were considering bills which
would amend this law and cut out
the features of the present law that
are Objectionable. The author Of the
bill tried to have the house recind
the action of the committee and put
the bill on general orders, but the
house, with every Democrat voting
yes but two, refused to do so, by a
vote of 62 to 60.
The speaker found this week that
he had put the member from Barton
county on more committees than he
could possibly attend to, and at his
own request he was relieved from
further duty on the committee on il.
surance.
A hot little time was had in the
house on last Friday, when the Orr
resolution calling for an investiga-
ton of the Attorney Generals office
operation under the prohibitory law
came up. The administration tried
10 throw sand in the eyes of the
Democrats by introducing a resoh-
ton calling for an investigation in
to all the departments of the state
administration, bu their scheme failed

proposition got pretty warm. In fact
there has been several debates in
the house which were rather hot

augural address advocated a roll call

ta Legislative Notes.

The amendment to- the United
% States constitution known as the In
. come Tax Law, that was submitted to
Q the different legislatures of the coun-
try by congress, was satisfied in the
senate by vote of rs to IA, with a
ssolid vote of the five Democratic SEN
Gators Without this Democratic vote,
The Income Tax amendment, as far as
o. Kansas is concerned, would have. not
been ratified but would have failed.
Fourteen Republican senators voted
against the Income Tax Amendment.
Regardless of the party pledges in
the platform of both parties, that the
e5 referendum, initiative and recall
should become a law in Kansas it is
booked for a rough road in both
branches of the legislature. On
Thursday, Senator Robertson moved
that It be made a special order of
business for Wednesday, the 25th.
b The insurgent senator's, headed by
Stannard, Hamilton and Myers, de-
feated this special order and moved
that the initiative referendum and re-
call be considered by a committee of
the whole, for the purpose of keeping
fro mthe records, the individual vote
of the senators upon this party
pledge. They attempted further to
dodge this important measure by
clamoring for a constitutional con-
Vention instead and it is not at all i'm
probable that the Republicans, in
stead of enacting the initiative, refer
endum and recall will make a final
stand for the constitutional conven-
tion.-

Compensation For Death.

Where death results from injury, the
amount of compensation is declared
in this way; If the workman leayes
any wholly dependent upon his earn
ings, his compensation shall be COM
puted by 900 times the amount of his
earnings at the time of the injury, but
not to exceed $4,000 in any case. But
if it is shown tha the deceased was
entitled to a greater sum by reason
of a prospective increase in earnings
during the next three years succeeding
such injury, then the arbitrator, pro-
vided for in the act, shall determine
the increase.
If the workman leaves only partial
ly dependent persons, an amount
proportionate may be agreed upon.
If no dependents are left, the cost Of
medical attendance and burial may be
allowed, but not less than 500.

Since the opening of the legislature,
it has been noised about the state
house that there should be an investi-
CATION of all the state offices and the
pay rcll, as most of the offices were
in the hands of successive deputies
since the time of Ex-Governor Bailey.
. The administration contemplating
that such a move would be made by
the members of the legislature, and
having a friendly committee, propos-
ed the appointment of three compe-
tent citizens; one to be appointed by
the governor, one by the senate and
one by the house of representatives.
With the house of representatives in
its present politically insurgent ma
jority and Governor Stubbs appoint
ing two of the committee, it was said
on the floor of the house, by Repre-
sentative Orr, that their report would
simply be a. white-wash report and
that the committee could not investi-
gate all of the Offices in two years !;
that ne proposed to appoint commit
tee from the house and senate that
should investigate certain offices and
report to this legislature. The first
move in this direction was made by
Representative Orr to investigate the
attorney generals office, the contin-
gent fund and the fees and expendi-
lures and fees collected in that office

house by small majority. The ad-
ministraton resolution for commit

at this time, except it was offered a;

When the Shoe Pinohes.

"My own common sense and the shoe
clerk permitting, shall never wear

man, but if should be inveigled into
making myself uncomfortable l know
what l shall do to allay the pain. The
ministrations to the aching feet of q
man who called on my Italian cobbler
for relief showed me a remedy. The
mans shoes pinched in three different
places. Having located the painful
spots Rafael dipped long strip of can
ton flannel into boiling water and held
the cloth stretched tightly across the
mans shoes. When the water began
to evaporate he dampened the cloth
again and repeated the process several
times.

are set to your feet. No more hurt

A Witty RenlX.

On one occasion an important dress
rehearsal at Bis Majesty's theater was
prolonged until the small hours of the
morning. The company grew very
weary, particularly a gentleman who
had been with Sir Herbert Beerbohm
Tree in good many productions, but
who had never attained to more than
Il very tiny part. When the time came
TO rehearse his few lines he was so
tired that his voice was anything but
distinct.
What's the matter, Mr.. Z.Y' asked
Sir Herbert in his most sarcastic tones
Are you saving your voice for the re-
hearsal?"
mo, Sir Herbert" was the retort
I've never been able to save anything
under your management"
Sir Herbert, an exceedingly witty
man himself. was so pleased with the
retort that the salary of the small part
man was raised.-LondOn NJ. A. =.

Gus intent. He died in the New for

and the next day was found by char
coal burner, who placed the naked
corpse on his cart, hoping to receive a
reward On the way to Winchester
the cart was upset, and the kings
body fell in the mire. Covered with
filth and black with charcoal, it ar
rived in Winchester, where it was
buried in the cathedral. A few years
later the tower fell and crushed the
tomb. and GOO years after the Puri-

EXIT THE STRAW HAT
Summer Tile Disappeared Yesterday
Says Fashions Decree

Yesterday marked the end of the
usefulness of the straw hat, so far
as men folks are concerned. 1t has
always been the accepted decree
that the straw tile shall cease to be
seen after September Is.
Of course there are some men brave
enough to stand before the jibes and
sarcasm of their brothers, and wear
the old straw bonnet until the cold
winds blow. Theirs will be life of
misery, however, because he who has
dug up the old felt hat or derby from
the dust of last year will make the
unfortunate wearer of the straw the
butt of many puns.
