House and Senate to Re-convene Mon
day Evening
Montpelier, Nov 9.-The Senate
adjourned yesterday afternoon until
Monday evening the House adjourn
ing until the same time. Nothing OF
importance came up for considera-
ton in the House today, but good
deal of routine business was trans
acted.
Montpelier, Nov 9-Though the
House has adjourned until tomorrow
morning it is hardly probable that
there will be enough of the members
left in town to transact any great
amount of business at that time as
many have left the city thinking that
the majority will do likewise, not
withstanding that there are a NUMBER
of bills ordered TO third reading
for tomorrow.
Many men prominent in the mill
tary affairs of the state have been in
the city today to attend hearing be-
fore the joint committee on appropria
tons on House Bill 1876, appropriating
S25, 600 annually for state armories,
Adjt. Gen. Lee. Tillotson of St Al
bans explained the need of armories if
the national guards present efficiency
is TO be maintained and Col. Dyer of
Rutland and Capt Ashley of Burling
ton spoke for the appropriation.
Possibly Chaplain Ford had tip
that an onslaught was to be made on
the state treasury this morning, in
the shape of bills calling for appro-
priations totalling $4,000, for he read
from the 10th Psalm and prefaced his
quotations from the Scripture with
the statement that Martin Luther
found solace in the words of the
Psalmst during the darkest days of
the Christian church.
The secretary of state wants an
appropriation to index and properly
file the records in his Office and this
morning a bin was introduced by Mr..
Coburn of Milton calling for 100000
for that purpose.
Ten thousand dollars are asked for
by the bill introduced today by Mr..
FERN of Essex, providing for the

ed bill at the morning SESSION pro-
viding a penalty of not over one years
Imprisonment or fine of not more
than $1,000 or both for persons maxi
ing or using false statements to Sc
cure credit
Ii cannot be said that the House
devoted itself to important measures
this afternoon though many import
ant bills were passed and otherwise
disposed of, as much valuable time
was spent in debate on measures of
far less magnitude.
The bill TO license veterinaries
started debate and over % members
took their turn in speaking either for
or against the measure.
With the desire for debate ap-
preaching a fever heat House bill "a.
relating to a bounty on hedgehogs,
was taken up and after nearly 40
minutes of discussion was read a
third time and passed by vote of
! 102 TO 9S.
Mr.. Watson of st. Adams, introduc-
ed a joint resolution providing for a
commission of nine to investigate ed
ucational conditions as recommended
in Gov. Fletcher's message to the
General Assembly this morning and
TO report regarding the rights, duties

situations of higher education. In
the ordinary course of procedure the

ing sought by the three colleges Mr..
