The house agreed and Messrs, Peasley of Cheshire and House of Windsor were appointed: to the committge. Sunday Bill Doomed. The bill relating to the observance of Sunday, was rejected in the house and passed in the senate and request made for a committee on conference. Oo motion of Mr. Hyde the house voted to adhere to its action. This means that the measure will die between the two houses, Validation of Deeds. When the act concerning the val- idating of certain deeds was reached on the calendar Speaker Healy said that if there was no objection the mat- ter .would be passed and retain its place on the calendar, as this was one of the last matters that ought to be considered. There was no objection. Mutual Life Undisturbed. An act amending an act concerning taxes on mutual life insurance com- panies was rejected on motion of Mr. Isbell, who said: “I move that the matter be rejected, the report of the committee to the contrary, notwith- standing.” Increase in Prison Cells. The house concurred with the sen- ate in passing an act which provides that the sum of $30,000 be appropri- ated for the purpose of installing 72 new cells in the Connecticut state prison, Care of Insane Poor. In concurrence with the senate an act was passed, providing that the selectmen, person, committee or board, of any town, having authority to pro- vide for the poor therein, shall cause all persons who are supported in any almshouse or institution in such town, other .than an institution maintained by the state or county, to be examined by a physiclan at least once each six months. _Such authority, upon ascer- taining that any feeble-minded or in- sane person is belng supported in an almshouse, shall forthwith institute proceedings for the commitment of such person to an institution for the insane or for the feeble-minded. Boat for Shell Fisheries. The act appropriating $§,000 for a boat for the use in the shell fisheries was passed after explanation by Mr. Eaton of North Maven. The sum of $3,500 for a boat and $§4,500 for oper- ation and maintenance for two years. Schagthicoke Indians. When Assistant Clerk Kenealy read the act concerning an appropriation for the Schagthicoke Indians. located in Kent, Litchfield county, he skip- ped the hard word, and the members laughed. An appropriation of $400 was made for the Indians. Hospital Appropriations. The act repealing an act concerning annual appropriations to certain hos- pitals, passed in the smnate, was amended in the house so as to include all hospitals, and so that none would be entitled to any statutory appropri- ations. If this measure becomes law the representatives of _all hospitals seeking state aid will be required to appear before the committee on appro- priations and each application be act- ed upon its merits No Prohibition Amendment. With an attendance of only three more present than on Wednesday, when the constitutional amendment with reference to prohibition was in- definitely postponed, an unsuccessful attempt was made to bring the matter back in the house in the hope of re- scinding the action taken. Mr. Martin of Orange was acting speaker, he Who championed the high license and other temperance measures, and it is pre- sumed to be an opportune time to make the attempt, although in justice to Mr. Martin be it known he was not aware that he had been selected as the goat. Mr. Ritch of Woodstock moved for reconsideration of the action taken on Wednesday. He was declared out of order, as the resolution was not in the possession of the house, having been under the rules transferred to the office of the secretary of state. Appeal Not in Order. Mr, Shaw of Redding offered a mo- tion ~that the resolution be recalled from the office of the secretary in or- der that the question might be dis- cussed with a full membership pres- ent. He was ruled out of order on the ground that this motion was not in order while the house was acting on business on the calendar. Mr. Shaw appealed from the ruling of the chair, but the business on the calendar pro- ceeded. Speaker Healey on Deck. At the conclusion of the calendar work, Speaker Healey returned to the desk. Mr. Shaw renewed his resolu- tion to recall from the office of the secretary. He was ruled out of order, as there was no mistake or no doubt of the vote taken on Wednesday. Mr. Shaw then Jaunched forth on a speech during which he stated that the meas- ure had been pushed through the house by the gag rule. The speaker suggested that the remark be with- drawn. Mr. Shaw withdrew it with meek apology. He appealed from the decision of the speaker. Roll Call Rejected. Mr. Sherwood of Westport made mo- tion that the vote he taken by yeas and nays. This motion did not pre- vail. There. was some sharp debats, some 0f the members making sharp accusations, most of which were recall- ed at the suggestion of the speaker. The motion to appeal from the de- cision of the chair was lost by a vote of 163 to 4. Committee Expenses. A resolution was passed to pay the expenses of the committee on railroads to the amount of $114.01. City of Norwich Bonds. Favorable action was taken in the senate on the act authorizing the city of Norwich to issue bonds of $30,000 for the construction of sidewalks. Ta- bled for calendar. School for Feeble Minded. Mr. Eaton of North Haven, house chairman of the committes on appro- priations, to which committee was re- ferred the removal of the school for the feeble minded from Lakeville, which carried with it an appropria- tion of $200,000, reported that the committee amended, as a matter of economy as well as utility, €o that the school be removed to land now owned by the state at Mansfield, in connec- tion with the colony for epileptics. The report was accepted and the bill passed. Backus Hospital Increase. The general appropriation bill was amended, increasing the appropriation for the W. W. Backus hospital of Nor- wich from $8000 to $10,000 for two years. This led Mr. Stoddard to ask: How much money has been appropri- ated? Mr. Eaton replied _that the amount was $14,649,000, and that the state-increase for the next two years had been increased about $4,000,000. Field Artillery Battery. The Dbill was passed appropriating $7,600 for a battery of field artillery to be located at Stamford. Preservation of Records.

An act was passed authorizing the comptroller to cause copies of the ex- cise laws to be printed for distribu- tion. Rights Restored. Rights lost by reason of commission of crime were restored to Charles B. Kelsey of Hartford by a vote of 140 to 1. No Co-operative Power Company. The committee on incorporations re- ported. unfavorably the act to incor- porete the Co-operative Power com- pany. The report was accepted and Dbill rejected. The Governor’s Staff. The committee on conference to whom was referred the act relating to the appointment of two commissioned officers of the governor's staff report- ed inability to agree and the house insisted upon its action. The bill was passed in the senate and rejected in the house. This means the death of the bill. The claim of Edward T. Lyons for payment to establish- title of coun- ty commissioner received like treat- ment; as did also the bill relating to special railroad policemen. Attorney General’'s Assistant. The committee on conference to whom was referred the bill relative to the collection of moneys due the state, and which carried with it the creation of an assistant ettorney gen- eral at a salary of $300, reported that the matter ought to be referred to the committee on appropriations. It was so ordered. IN THE SENATE. State Tax on Towns of $1,750,000 Favorably Reported.

A Divorce Bill. A discussion of the bill from the house to give the superior court the exclusive jurisdiction over the granting of divorce on the ground of incurable insanity. _The bill was explained by Senator Klett. Senator Bree spoke in opposition to the bill, and Senator Barnes favored it. Senator Molloy opposed the said he was op n incorporators in- bill. He d to the granting of divorce on any grounds. ‘He is a mighty poor specimen of a man who will get a_divorce from his wife when she is afflicted with insanity,” said Senator Molloy. Senator Purcell also opposed the bill and made the point that they should not extend the grounds for divorce. “If we make incurable insanity a r son for divorce now, in a few years the legislature will be asked to mak tuberculosis or any other disease a ground for divorce,” said Senator Pur- cell. The debate on the bill was not fin- ished. Agricultural Governor Holcomb th: afternoon sent in the following names for the state board of agriculture: Senator H. Board. H.

WILLIAM CAMPION WAS 40 YEARS HAGK DRIVER. Veteran Retires Because of Poor Health—Began Business in 1875. liam Campion, who since April, 1875, has been a famillar figure on his hack in this city, h: ust retired from the business because of poor health.. His Hack and ‘horses have been bought by Wiliam F. Bailey, Jr., the livery- man. Forty years ago in April Mr. Cam- pion began in business here as a public hackman and he has com- manded a wide patronage in that time to whom he feels grateful, but regrets that the condition of his health makes WILLIAM CAMPION t necessary to forsake the box. Since ast August he has been in poor health th he came to the conclu- had better give up tha which has tinued to be a profitable one for him through all the period. When he first started in sio: business it was no uncommon thing to take In $60 a week, but changing times, with trolley c and jitneys, have made a change in that, aithough he has no reason to complain of the business he , and should keep at it If he felt well enough. The retirement of Mr. Campion leaves James Burke as the veteran hack driver of the city who is still in actige business life. _CHART MAKING. Highly Imoortant Work With Exciting Adventures and Valuable Results. Few people realize how useless every a, from a_dreadnought a tramp steamer, would be but for the labor of the chart-maker. If coasts and seas were unmapped, disasters would be continually overtaking oc i ships, for submerged roc! sea currents and many other es to the mariner could rumen trained staff. G s eleven ships en in such both in home waters and in for- eign seas, and nearly a thousand men are employed. The Sea-surveying ves- sels voyage round the coastline, mak- ing frequent soundings, and especially watching for any dengerous change in the shape of the sea bottom. For the latter is continually shifting as tides and currents collect sand at one point and deposit it at another, whilst the action of the waves is continually -hanging the contour of our coastline. i SAILOR ILLUSTRBTING OPERABTION.

Whenever possible, sea captains lend a helping hand to the chart-makers by reporting the ~resence of any unrecorded rock or shoal which they may observe dur- Ing their voyages. The sea surveyors then investigate the mariner’s story, and this often means voyages at a moment’s notice to distant parts of the globe. Such expeditions are hastily carried out, for if uncharted rocks lurk near shipping lanes they can cause grave disaster if not located immedi- ately. On one occasion e large granite rock for years stood 8 feet below the water close to & crowded shipping route, which no chart recorded until it was accldentally discovered. A hundred years ago the life of the sea surveyor was a hazardous one, for he often had to fight for Als life when charting waters in wild of the globe, whererunclwilized - Tesented his intrusion. On one occasion Vice Admiral Owen, a famous explorer in his day, was commissioned to survey waters of the African coast. Whilst making his way up the Mahong river with his assistants, the gallant band were attacked by Zulus, who gave them a warm reception with assegais. The natives displayed such hostility that Owen eventually had to return to the coast, although in face of terrible dan- ger he succeeded in charting forty-six miles of the river. Even today sea surveyors have ex- citing adventures whilst carrying out their important tasks. Captain Tyson and his party, of the United States Hy- drographical Department, a short time back were trapped on a drifting ice flce whilst investigating the ice phe- nomena near Littleton Island. Sepa- rated from their ship, they drifted for six months and covered 1500 miles on this floe before the crew of a New- foundland sealer rescued them, Dur- ing their strange vovage Tyson and his assistants subsisted as best they could on @ish, The British Hydrographical Depart« ment is probably the oldest of its kind, and its collection of maps and charts is the most comprehensive and com- plete in existence. Many famous ex- plorers and men_ famlliar to history have in the past helped in the prepa- ration of charts for Great Britain. Amongst these may be mentioned Cap- tain Cook, Sir John Franklin, Captain Vancouver and Sir William Parry.— Tit Bits, e Just to Reform Him. T. R. ate out of the hand of T. O P.—Philadelphia Record.
