DIED IN SENATE.
State of SocaIIed Salary Grab in the
Legislature.

Many letters are being received by
state officers asking what became of
the salary grab that the house of rep
resentatives voted during the last
three days of the session. That SAL
ary grab did not get through the sem
ate. The senators realized that there
would be more trouble than they ever
had had in getting back if they voted
for that sort of a measure, so they just
did not take it up at all. That ap-
priation bill had teeth in it for the
fellows that accepted the money.
The law gives each member of the
house and senate three dollars a day
for fifty days. mileage and postage
At the beginning of the session each
house voted each member twenty doll
lars for postage. A few days before
the legislature adjourned the house
voted $25 additional postage, but such
a row was raised over this that the
house rescinded the resolution the
next day.
Bat two days before the legislature
adjourned the house ways and means
committee reported bill appropriate
ing four thousand dollars and allow
ing each member of the house and
senate to draw $25 for living expenses
from the time the pay stopped on
March 1, to the end of the session.
Each member was to file an itemized
voucher showing his living expenses
for the ten days before drawing the
money.
Nearly all the Republicans and
Democrats voted for the measure in
the house. The next day an effort
was made to reconsider the action.
but this failed and the bill went to
the senate. The senators decided that
they would not be party to this sal
airy grab, even if it were legal, so the
bill died on the calendar.
In all probability the auditor and
treasurer would not have paid the
money as a good many attorneys held
| that the bill was illegal and anyone
who paid out money on it would be
guilty of crime would anyone
who accented the money.

Mail Boxes Will Be Installed in
the Street Cars.
IN WASHINGTON FIRST
If the Experiment at the Capt.

The Service Will Be Extended
to Other Cities.

Washington, March 2o.-The post
office department is to experiment
with the installation of mail boxes in
street cars. When they are installed
there will be no excuse for street car
travellers who bring home at night the
letters which they were commissioned
to mail in the morning.
When one of these forgetful persons
takes his seat in a street car to ride
tG work he will find staring him in
the face a United States mail receipt
acle, which is his cue to approach and
perform the duty which he promised
to carry out.
The department will have mail
boxes installed in Washington street
cars for a test authorized in the last

USES OF THE CHURCH.
DIR. Hayes Doesn't Believe in Sensa-
tionaI Preachers.

DR.. F. L. Hayes of the First Congre-
gationa1 church. in the course of a
sermon Sunday morning, which dealt
largely with what manner of man a
minister should be. expressed his dis
approval of the preacher of the SEN
sational type.
There are persons who crave to
hear from the pulpit said he. "star-
tling utterances that have either the
SAVIOR of untruth or profanity to give
them spice. There are those who
habitua1ly crave the making of things
hum and having something doing
"ThiS has not been a church to
which people have come for sprin g
styles in theology. / have not felt
this to be the place to furnish pleas
ure. although l believe that pleasure
is an essential in life.
''The church is very delicate piece
OF mechanism. The criticism habit is
the cause of a large portion of the
troubles of the church,
the past there has been criticism in
nection with the services of the church
in this and other countries, but that
the time will come in his opinion
when the phonograph will have place
in the church. as well as the organ
and the violin, and that moving pic
lures will be the means of educating
the members Of the congregations.
Next Sunday is DR.. Hayes last Sun
day in Topeka.
He will occupy the pulpit of the
New England Congregational church
on the North side in Chicago as a
temporary arrangement.

NEED NINE MORE STATES
Progress of the Income Tax Amend
ment to Constitution.

New York. March 20-Nine more
states must artify the proposed in
come tax amendment before it can
become a part of the federal consti-
tuition. Reports received here from
the capitals of the 46 states show that
the amendment has received favor
able action in the joint legislatures
of 20.
Vermont, Rhode Island and Utah
have refused to ratify the amendm ent
this year, while New Hampshire has
taken favorable action in only one
branch of the legislature. Among the
IS which have not yet acted. the
question is pending in Louisiana, New
York Massachusetts, Maine, Connecti-
cut. Pennsylvania and New Jersey.
The matter is scheduled to come up
before the Florida legislature next
month. West Virginia has post
see. Wyoming. Minnesota and Della
ware have not conside cred the matter.
The constitution provides that pro-
posed amendments to become valid
must be ratified by three-fourths of
tho states. This necessitates favora BILE
action of 35 of the As states before
tine government. There is no limit to
the time of such ratification and neg
ative action by legislature is not
| conclusive, q state having the right
to reverse its judgment.
! At the close of 1910 the amendment
had been ratified by Alabama, Geor-
g;a, Illinois. Maryland, Mississippi
Oklahoma and South Carolina, while
| last year the legislatures of Louis

GIVE FREE CONCERTS.
Clarence Eddy Says Pipe Organ Should
Be Used for that Purpose.

Clarence Eddy, the world-famous or
ganist, who will play at the First Bap-
tlst church tonight believes that the
city should give free pipe organ con-
certs lin the Auditorium just as free
Dand concerts are given in the summer
months 1T would be an excellent idea
for the city to employ an official Or
gan1st and give a series of free reci-
tails for the people, said he this after
noon.
THE organ should be used. 1t is
much better to use the organ than to
let it be idle. An organ needs exer-
else.
Great care should be used in the
selection of music to be played al these
recltals. The programs should not be
made too heavy at first, but the peo-
pie could be gradually brought to the
point where they would prefer classical
to popular music.
Il am interested in the organ at the
Auditorium because 1 gave the dedica-
tory recital about three years ago."
Very refined" is the way in which
Mr.. Eddy expressed himself in speak
ing of the new organ at the First Bap-
tist church, the gift of John r. Null
vane, on which he will play this even
ing. THE delicate stops are very beau
tiful,'' he said, ''and that is the feature
of the organ. The action too, is eX-
cellent. This is the first time that I
have played on an organ of this make. -
He considered that the acoustics of the
church are good.
II have been on concert tours for six
months continued Mr.. Eddy, land I
find these long jumps to be fatiguing.
I have just returned from the west
California, Oregon, Idaho; and other
states, and 1 have been in New Or
leans and other southern points. From
here 1 go to Denver, Leadville, and
