Both of these bills were recommended in the governors call for the second extra session. Both bills were improved in the house committee of the whole yes terday and will probably go to third reading today.
 Representative Briscoe introduced a bill creating a hospital for disabled and needy miners providing for a commits sion to select a site and for a board of trustees to administer the hospital The hill also defines the disabilities which will entitle miners to admission The till carries an appropriation of S75.000 for the construction of the hos pital.
 Speaker Brooks introduced bill amending the law with respect to the procedure of taking appeals to the state supreme court.
 The only new bill brought into the senate was one by Senator Colter pro- viding for the creation of irrigation districts. An incident of the morning session of the senate was an address by Mrs. Frederick Schoff of the na- tional bureau of home education on the subject of child welfare.
 There was no session of the house in the afternoon in order that the com mittees on appropria tion and public lands might have the rest of the day for delihcration. The latter committee is making satisfactory headway and it is thought that it will be able to report a bill early next week.

 In presenting the jewels, Past Su- preme Representative J. NJ. Aitken said:
 T can look back tonight to a time nearly twenty-five years ago when l became a member of the order of Knights of Pythias and I can dis tinctly remember my sensations at that time as though it was yester- day. l felt very much frightened in the first degree. very much surprised in the second and agreeably disap- pointed in the third and l realize now that I learned a lesson in each that has been of great benefit to me in all these years.
 Since that time I have had a great many experiences in lodge af- fairs not only in the subordinate lodge but in the higher branches and I think I can truthfully say that that of tonight is enc of the most unique I have ever had. It could cnly be once in a lifetime that one could be

 ever occur again, and I feel highly
 honored that I have been chosen for
 the pleasant duty.
 It is true that my elation has
 been somewhat dampened by the re-
 mark of one of your committee when
 asked him why he wanted me in
 preference to a member of the home
 lodge and he replied that all the
 good takers were going to receive
 jewels and I was the only one he
 could think of that would be eligible.
 As the brother is an old friend of
 mine I will not hold it against him.
 T believe it to be a fact that the general public do not fully appreci- ate the good that is being done in the world by the order of Knights of Pythias still at the same time a fl fIaternal order is looked upon in quite a different light than former ly. The general public is beginning to realize that fraternity now-a- days like all commercial propositions must be organized to do any great amount of good and the united ef- fort is what counts.
