CAPITOL CHATTER | Little Sidefights On Legislators and! Legislation. j High Scholl 729. Just a few more than 130 members of the house demonstrated yvesterday that #hey were sincere when they vot- ed for Friday sessions, They were on their jobs and disposed of much busi- ness. \ The committee on incorporations re- ported favorably Friday on the peti- ! tions of the Dayville Cemetery asso- ciation for permission to amend its charter so that it may receive funds for the perpetual care of lots. The “bills concerning the limitation | of licenses -and_providing that not more than one lcense be granted ¢ each 1,000 inhabitants of any town, and repealing any acts inconsistent with that proposition, will be heard| by the excise committee at 1.30 o Wadnesday afternoon, March 22. So | many are expectsd to be present.that the hearing will be held in the hall of the house. There is state wide inter- est in this matter. Green flags, green emblems and a few pots of shamrocks—these on the reporters’ desks—a few emerald hued carnations and Mayor Dunn’s ¢Willimantic) green necktie added a touch of color in the house on St. Patrick’s day. _The senate will consider & proposi- tion to reduce the grat 10 the re- porters to $200, and "to reduce the number who are to receive such com- pensation to a representative each ot six Connecticut newspapers, such rep- resentatives to be in regular attend- ance at sessions of that body. The resolution apprepriating $25,000 for the erection of a monument to the Connecticut Cavalry association was rejected in the house Friday in con- currence with the senate. The resolu- tion making an appropriation In favor of the Apostalic Sisters of the Sacred Heart was,also rejected, in being stat- ed by Representative Knight, as chair- man of the committee on appropria- tions, that to pass the measure would establish a precedent. Representative Wood of ToHand goes on record as standing with Rep- resentative Hyde of Canterbury against the passage of any legislation that would prohibit the use of prison- ers in jails from being employed on oueside work. Resolutions amending the charters of the Putnam Light and, Power com- pany and of the New London Gas and Electric company passed the house s apparently an excellent day for doing legislative business. Yester- day a heavy calendar th 37 matters starred for action was disposed of with | commendable acceleration. The resoluficn authgrizing the Put- nam Light and Power company to carry on the business of distributing and selling electricity in the town of | odstock was passe by the house | Friday. It is provided, however, that| after a thirty days’ notice from the selectmen of Woodstock the company may be ousted at any time. An act amending an act relating to the transaction of business by non- resident fire. insurance companies in Connecticut, providing the capital stock of any such company shall be not less than $200,000, instead of $150,000, as at present, was passed by the house Fri- day. The committee on public health and safety will sit Tuesday at a hearing on bills concerning the licensing of ‘barbers and concerning the inspection ©of barber shops. The bill making the customary ap- propriation for the Connecticut State Firemen's association for two years, ending Sep. 30, 1913, passed the house at Friday's session. An amusing fact that was not dis- covered or, if it was discovered, not mentioned, was that the house passed a number of bills Fridey without a quorum sitting. While 130 make a quorum, several measures were passed to follow out such action within ten day, after being favorably reported by Hair, Scalp and - Face Specialist is the! hair, when the 1911 hats : are worn.
