important matters coming before
it in the fifty days, it will have
quite enough to keep it busy.
Much Of the legislation passed last
summer will need curing of serious
defects, and time will be necessary
in doing this. Half a dozen inn
portant bills were faulty and will
have the kinks jerked out of them.
The congressional reapportion-
ment bill had silly blunclers in it
such for instance, as placing Put
nam county in the Seventh dis
tries. There have been rumors to
the effect that a big fight will be
on the bill itself when it is brought
up to amend the quirks out of it.
There are also defects in the

INDOOR SEASON CLOSED

Probably the most successful
indoor season that the Organized
Militia has ever had was brought
to a close last Friday evening,
when the team representing the
second battalion won from that
representing the first. by the mar
row margin of five points.
The series of indoor matches IN
a,,ourated last year have been pro-
ductive of much good in creating
interest among both officers ana
men for indoor rife practice
The last match of the series was
held last Friday evening. Inc
team representing the hrst pat
talon under Major j. warner

total Of 1888 out Of a possible
