In addition to the bills for main

deficits that existed in all the State
Institutions. And for the State In

prepared and secured the passage OF
a bill for the erection of an annex,

Bill for all temporary sane inmates to
be paroled and returned home until

In addition to the Committee Bills

a bill to merge the Tax and Railroad
Commissions. My aim in this was

MORE Street DANCES
IDEA IS POPULAR

Band concerts are becoming more
popular as the season advances and
new features are introduced, by thoss
who attend the different meetings
each night in different places of the
city. j. Norris Robinson and the
First Infantry Band began a new fea'
ture last night at Second and Jack
son streets when the musical p-l-
gram was given over to rollicking
airs and the people danced on the as
phalt pavement.
The feature. which is a new idea OF
Professor Robinson. will be intro
duced at other places. Last night
the concert took the form Of earn
ival. Chinese lanterns were hung on
the porches of many houses and the
many automobiles lined up along the
curb added to the picnic feeling by
footing of horns and flashing Of their
lights.
There was no rowdyism reported
however, although it required the
services of two patrOlmen to clear
the streets so that people could
dance. which they did to their hearts
content
