senate resolution, but that it pre- ferred to take recess for the balance of the week on February instead of February 12. The senate refused to concur in the amendment and the house refused to concede, so con ference committee was appointed to adjust the differences if possible.
 Nineteen bills were passed Monday, to say nothing of the measures which were advanced by other methods.
 The Senate on Monday afternoon passed the thrid measure which seeks to make theft of automobiles and ac- cessories more difficult. Several days ago bill was passed by the senate making it felony to take a car for riding, and now a bill has been passed by the senate making it fel- ony to obliterate the numbers on auto mobile engines, gasoline engines and tires.
 Several bills are pending which will tax automobiles for highway districts, starting with $40 for big statewide district and coming down to $5 in smaller ones. There will be introduc ed within a few days bill giving cities the right to tax automobiles $5 per annum for the purpose of raising funds for work on streets. The auto- mobile dealers and the motorists of Little Rock are declining to oppose these measures. They declare that taxes paid for road and streets are saved on repair bills and they will not attempt to cut down expenses there.
 The automobile dealers are also de- clining to push the requests for quar- terly payment of taxes, on automo- piles, or licenses, saying that all the money possible will be needed for roads.
 The senate Monday had an argu- ment on the Emory bill requiring

SUNDAY SCHOOLS
 TAKE BIG PART.

Methodist Churches all over the Southern and Western states are wak- ing up these days. April 27 to May 4 the M. E. church, South, will con- duct drive for $35,0O0,0O0 with a view of putting the work of the church on business basis, while, at the same time, enabling it to shoul- der it's responsibility during the days when world is to be reconstructed. Out of the sum of $35,000,000 the Sunday schools of the church will: contribute a good quota, and the plaz1' decided upon in this connection is in~ teresting.
 Every Sunday school will be ex-E pected to make an offering for mis-| sions of an average of five cents a month per pupil enrolled. As some young people in the Sunday schools will not be able to given even thu small amount, those who can give more than this will do so, but five| cents per month per pupil is the reg ular allotment for the Sunday schools, and this pledge is now being made by thousands of Sunday schoolas This sum will be pledged for the forthcoming five years, and no doubt will total $3,5OO,OOO as the Sunday school contribution to the Centenary

court stenographers to pass an exam ination and providing for the creation of an examining board. The oppon- ents of the bill declared it was creat- ing trust among court reporters, but the proponents of the bill declared it calls for such accuracy, as often the life of a person depends upon the notes of stenographer, that too much regulation could not be placed about the practice. The bill was if nally passed, some of those arguing against the measure failing to vote in the negative.
 The bill passed by the senate Mon- day afternoon prohibiting the county judge from dealing in county war rants, scrip or other county indebted ness, seems to carry quite kick with it. The bill, introduced by Senator Moncrief, makes it unlawful for the county judge to in any way be con- nected with the purchase or sale of evidences of county indebtedness. Senator Moncrief explained that some county judges purchased claims against the county, then allowed the claims and sold them at a profit. This law has long been in force in re- gard to sheriff, and the members were unanimous in their belief that it should be extended to take in the county judge.
 Senator Alexander in the senate Monday introduced bill making it unlawful to deal in futures in the state. This applies only to inter- state transactions, the general bill prohibiting the trading in futures being unconstitutional.
 The contest for third place on the list of constitutional amendments is growing more interesting with the adoption yesterday of the Choate res olution. This provides that the ques- tion of road tax shall be voted on reg ularly at every biennial election in each political township of the state, and that any amount may be voted up to twelve mills.
