Denver.-Governor Ammons worked
late in considering the remaining ap
preparation bills and disposed of near
ly all Of them. Most of the bills were
trimmed. At the beginning of his ad-
ministration he declared that he
would sign no bills unless there was
revenue in sight to pay them.
1t is the intention of the chief exc
cutive to stick to this rule.
To come within his estimate of the
revenues, Governor Ammons trimmed
all of the appropriation bills pre-
sented.
1t Is estimated that the total rev.
enue for the ensuing biennial period
will aggregate $2,9O0,0O0. Appropria
ton bills approved amount to $685.
$50, and the Gunnison Normal and the
Girls Industrial school bills are yet to
be taken up.
In the bill providing for the insane
asylum the governor cut the mainte-
nance from s145,0O0 to 100000, and
also disapproved the item of $4,000 for
boring an artesian well.
Forty thousand dollars for buying
additional farm lands was disap-
proved; also s17,5OO for a new laun-
dry, $4,000 for moving cottages to
the land which it was proposed to
buy, and cut the item of $500 for
laundry equipment to $1,000; $4,000
for interchangeable plant.
The disposition of bills acted upon
follows:
Appropriation Bills Approved.
Fl. B. 4-State reformatory, s115,-
500; cut from s123,500.

fective accompaniment. The singers
can sing, too, grand opera and love
songs composing their repertoire.
When one song has been finished
the gondoliers shout for their favorite
song, for these swarthy boatmen seem
to enjoy the singing as much as do
their passengers. Presently a man
descends from the singers craft and
steps from gondola to gondola, small
bag in his hand. You hear the clink-
ing of coins, and when he gets to your
boat you drop a few centisimi into the
we'll filed bag. This is repeated three
or four times, but altogether you do
not squander more than ten or fifteen
cents in American money. You would
not begrudge three times that amount.
When one of the gondolas by the
side of the concert leaves there is
scramble to get it's place. The gon-

quick twist, gets you into the coveted
place. 1t seems to be coveted by the
boatmen, but in reality it is not as
good as being farther away.

and are just alike. 1t Is said that one
of the old Doges of Venice, finding
that many of the wealthy mobiles were
obtaining gondolas much more elabo-

Other gondoIas glide silently past you,
and perhaps now and then barge
loaded with fruit or fish, propelled
by the one long oar in the hands Of
swarthy Venetian. But you are rudely
awakened from your reverie by the
shrill whistle of an impertinent little
steamboat. 1t seems like an anach-
ronism, and one resents its presence.
These boats now run between the
railway station and the Adriatic sea.
In them one can go out to the Lido,
the famous Venetian seaside resort;
to the great Venetian glass works and
other places. Now and then speedy
motor boat will dash by you, and you
shake your fist at it's departing stern,
and wish it would sink.
Then with a sudden turn to the
right you enter a labyrinth of smaller
canals. so narrow, some of them, that
YOU can almost touch the houses on
either side with outstretched hands.
AS you approach a snarp turn, the
gondolier shouts a warning, answered
by another boatman. and presently
a long black PROV emerges slowly and
cautiously into view. With perfect
ease the two boats pass each other
in this narrow space, never touching
nor humping. The gondoliers have
perfect control over them and handle
the long unwieldly things perfectly.
These back canals are charming. al
though, one must confess. they are
sometimes rather smelly, and there is
danger of having the days garbage

you glide beneath many bridges, and
slip past the old, old houses, with
the window gaily decorated with fow-
ers. You gaze in wonder and admira-
tion at the picturesque old places, and
perhaps a black eyed signorina leans
from a window and drops a rose into
your boat, and smiles.
At night the charm of Venice Is
even greater. Then it seems like a
veritab BILE dream city; but without the
gondolas it might be nightmare. Far
out on the Grand canal one can see
two or three concert boats. decorated
with Japanese lanterns, and on the
still air comes snatches of old Italian
love songs. You listen few min
utes, and then, with nod to your
companion, you get up from your chair
on the hotel gallery and signal for a
gondola. Silently it slips up to the
steps leading into the water; you step
into it and sink by the side of your
companion deep into the cushioned
seats in perfect luxury. Never go out
alone.
