in the House, has completely broken down. It went to pieces last week in a final effort made against the admin istration bill to abolish the Board of Control, the opposition being able to secure less than ten votes. There is 3 more even division in the Senate, but, even there, the administration fordes are in control. Governor Me Rae does not wield the big stick, does not maintain representatives on the floor of either House, and his hand does not appear openly save in a few instances. Yet, his strength in both houses has been rapidly growing and it is now admitted that he can have anything he wants, because" as one member said, 'he will not ask for anything that is wrong"
 The administration pledges are rapidly being fulfilled.
 The Penitentiary Commission is al- ready numbered among the things that were and a new Honorary Board is already in charge of the affairs of the institution.
 The Arkansas Corporation Com mission will be consigned to the linn bo of the obsolete as soon as the re- peal bill can be enrolled and reach the governors hands, which will be before this item is put into type. This commission, which has been running the gaumet of public opinion during the last two years, is to be succeeded by revival of the old Railroa Com mission. with mos of its powers and perogatives restored.
 The House has already passed the bill abolishing the Board of Control of State Charitable institutions and substituting three honorary boards. This will probably pass the Senate this week.
 Then there are the Highway Com mission, the State Oil Inspector, the State Boiler Inspector, the Inherit ance Tax Collector and various and sundry other agepcies for which the toboggan is being greased
 The Railroad Commission, which is being restored to power, is to consist of three members to be appointed by the governor at a salary of $3600 a year as compared with $4200 which has been the salary or the Arkansas Corporation Commission. At this time it is not known whom the gover- nor will appoint to succeed Commits sioners T. E. Wood, J. T. Burkett and Hogan Oliver. However, there is no doubt but that these three will have been returned to private life before the end of the week.
 The Railroad Commission has been given jurisdiction over all common carriers and over all public utilitie operating inter-eounty or outside of the municipalities. It has no power to adjust rates or regulate the opera tions of any public utility operating strictly in the cities or towns. This jurisdiction being transferred abso- lutely to the municipal councils or commissions.

CHAPTER XIV.
The SONG Of a Thrush.

hC So4i9 " q ' HIA SEls
Twentieth Of June, and tile world at
high tide; the woods full of cradles.
and each cradle housing d lusty baby;
the weak gone back to earth. the fit
that survive beginning TO test wing
and claw. Streams and woodland
pools grow languid with millions mat
ing Each leaf has reached it's maxi
mum of lung expansion. The trees
breathe deep. The forest has settled
down seriously to the business of full
filling its promises. Cocoon and chrys-
ais have opened and flung forth their
glittering mysteries. Furnished bodies
and gauzy wings glance and glitter
through yellow sunshine and soft
shade, like flakes of star dust Sitting
down out of the sky.
But if the woods have many cradles.
they also have many graves. There
was a new one this placid June evening
at Fallen Rock-a new one beside the
one that was almost new. There were
orchids upon them both A man and
maid had together hunted the woods
for them. Only such as they could
have found so many. Only to her fav-
orites does nature show the way to her
treasures.
The starch old Boss and hard-faced
Bull Masterson were back at their
watts and clam rakes. Brly's grand
mother was staying at the cabin of
the three gables a few days for com
pany.
The Pearlhunter came from the viii
lage in the still evening. Along the
dim, slim path through the woods he
came, against the face Of the sunset.
