BILL ASKS $4,000
FOR LAST SUMMERS
SPECIAL ASSEMBLY
House Hears Measure Without
Comment; Referred to
Committee

Echoes Of the ousting Of William
LANCER as governor last July sound
ed through the house Friday when a
bill appropriating $4,000 for a spe-
cial session last summer was intro
duced.
Without comment, house members
heard the bill read and referred to
the appropriations committee.
The bill, short and in tersc lam
guage, provides there is hereby APP
propriated out OF any moneys in the
state treasury not otherwise appro-
priated the sum Of $4,000 to defray
the expense, mileage and per diem
Of members, per diem OF officers and
employees, printing and miscellaneous
expense Of those attending the spe-
cial session Of the legislative as
sembly Of the state of North Dakota
convened at Bismarck on the call Of
the governor on the 18th day OF July,
1884"
No Reference to LANCER
No reference to LANCER is made
in the bill which was hurried
through the formal reading to the
committee where it is expected bat
tie will develop over the proposal.
Many house members expected the
bill, offered by the appropriations
committee, to be killed on the floor
Of the house, although others ex-
pressed confidence it would move into
the senate.
The session called by LANCER came
as the climax OF series Of stirring
events which followed the conviction
of LANCER in federal courts, and his
subsequent removal by the supreme
court.
Legality OF the session was qucs-
toned by then Acting Governor Ole
H. Olson. who dissolved the call Of
his predecessor, prior to the time set
for the converting. Despite his act,
sufficient members Of the house con-
vened to constitute a quorum. No
quorum ever was obtained in the
senate. LANCER appeared before the
house with an appeal for q com
plete investigation Of my admins
tration" and called for his impeach-
ment, II they found evidence
Eventually. after several days Of atm
less meeting. while fruitless attempts
were made to gain q quorum in the
senate, the session adjourned.
Legality Questioned
Legality Of the appropriation meas
ure introduced In the house Friday
Immediately was questioned by ct.
torney members Of the legislature. A
number Of them expressed belief the
proposal Is illegal.

made itself felt once more in thu
house. with introduction Of . bill b
w. J. Goodwin Of Morton. and p. 9

vent issuance Of injunction against

MINOR POLLUTION
 EXISTS IN STATE
Decided Lack of Adequate ly Prepared Cost Fig
 ures Revealed in Survey

A decided lack of adequately prepared cost figures based on the experience of Connecticut munich palities in the field of municipal refuse disposal was found during the survey of the subject conduct ed by the State Planning Board in cooperation with the State Water Department. Striking variation in the cost of collection and disposal among the various towns and cities, even when the methods used were identical was also found during the survey.
 The survey was undertaken by the State Planning Board with CWA and EZRA labor at the re- quest of the State Water Commis- sion, which had long sought to make such study but was unabble to find the funds or personnel with which to do the work. It is be. lieved that it's results will be of great value to municipalities in af- fording a means for comparison of the systems and costs of refuse collection and disposal in use in this state. The field work was completed in the spring of 1884. and the statistical data was ar ranged and compiled by the state

CHEFS FAVORED
 LITTLE MOTHER
First Lady" of Rapid City Still Active in Welfare
 and Civic Projects

Rapid City, s. D., (UP)-Fifty years ago Indians called her little mother and stopped their scalr- ing parties short of her door. Now.
 at 73, Mrs Jennie Brenna, tho First Lady" of Rapid City, still is active in welfare work and civic clubs.
 Many lordly chiefs, whose red communities during the latter part of the 18th Century, humbly ac- cepted cake and fruit from "Ena", still remembers them vividly. As the wife of Major John R. Brenna, agent on the Pine Ridge Reservation, she saw the pano. ramic 'devolution"---as she terms it-of the powerful Sioux Indian tribes.
 "There was American Horse, Spotted Elk, Short Bull, Red Cloud and a host of others" she told an interviewer.
 "Red Cloud" she said, twas a highly intelligent Indian. He could see inevitable change coming and he hated 1t, bubt there was nothing he could do. He always was very silent.
 "I never failed to take him a bit of cake, fruit or sweet bits when I went to his lodge. He seemed to appreciate these little things so much and he, too, called me 'Ena'."
 A high spot in Mrs Brenna's later life was the filming of an historical picture on the reserva- tion. Many co7orful figures of the Roaring West" were guests at her home at thath time. Among them were William (Buffa1o Bill) Cody, Courtney Riley Cooper, Rex Teach, General Baldwin and Frederick Remington.

 If he dies, his name may live in Cuban history.

 The field workers employed on the survey found that in many of the communities of the state there is a growing feeling among the public that improvements m the present methods of collection and disposal of refuse are badly need- ed, especially with reference to dumping. In a large number of municipalities, gross pollution of waterways exists, due to the exist ence of municipal dumps in prox- imity to waterways; and in prac- ticaily all Connecticut communities minor pollution exists, according to the survey

Bermuda-(UP)--A new fad has developed here which promises to

 li-lo-ing. F
 Every pool and beach on the island is filed with darling young men and women bouncing on an, in- Hated air mattress which pillow
 up and down with the waves. The new sport gets its name from the
 fact that, to maintain balance at all, the water spors lovers must lie relaxed on the mattresses, al-
 though the really daring take it' standing up.
 The mattresses. in gay colors.
 make an nexciting spectacle float. ing on the torquoise waters, with sturdy young Women in bright
 bathing suits mounted on them, against the background of coral sand. While this fad is at it's height swimmers no longer are matching their prowess in terms of strokes. speed and form--but as li-lo-ers.
 Interpreted, this calls for endur- ance in maintaining balance on the mattresses as they bounce against the waves. Only accom-
 plished swimmers attempt li-lo-ine in a strong turf. But everyhodys' doing 1t in the pools.
