REFORM MEASURES
ARE SCHEDULED
Tbcy Arc to Become Laws Before the
Closing ot the Week.
CIVIL SERVICE BILL WILL BE REACHED
Tho Spntz Ulll on tlic.Holircil List.
Chnirmnn Wilson of tho Insurnnco
Scnndnl Committee Ilns Called n
Electing for Tuesday Scnntor
Gobln Throntcns to Resign irom
tho Commlttoc--I)r. Coryell's lioom
Harrlsburg, May 23. Three reform
measures are scheduled to become laws
before tho closing of the coming1 week.
They are the non-assessment, non-po-lltlcal
Interference and poll tax bills.
Special orders' have been made for them
and they will be considered Tuesday on
fcecond reading and Wednesday on third
reading and final passage. There Is
apparently no opposition to them and
they are expected to go through with
scarcely an objection. Tho Republi
cans are pledged to their support and
the Democrats are anxious that they
shall become laws because they believe
such legislation will be to the advan
tage of their party. It is settled that
Governor Hnstlngs will sign the bills
ns soon as they reach him. They have
gone through the senate, but they will
have to be returned for concurrence
in tho house amendments. The civil
scrvlco bill will bo In shano to be re-
RL Jjtforted out of the house Judiciary eom
l TSjjnlttee In plenty of tlmo to be reached
this session. None of the other so
called reform bills are being pushed.
The Spatz bill to reduce from tho as
sessed valuation of property for tax
ation' r'l bona fide Judgments and
mortgage will probdbly not be heard
of, again this session. It has been sent
lack to the house Judiciary general
committee for a hearing. The opposi
tion to the measure is so great that
its friends realize they cannot muster
votes enough to pass it through the
house, let alone in the senate.
Chairman "Wilson, of the Insurance
scandal investigating committee, has
called a meeting for Tuesday. It will
then be decided when the Kearlng of
witnesses will begin. Senator Gobin,
who threatens to resign from the com
jnlttee bccauHe he was not chosen
chairman, Is still confined to his home
at Lebanon by illness. lie has notified
lils friend here that he will not serve
on the committee and that the affida
vits which he has In his desk touching
upon tho Inquiry, will be submitted to
the senate. The oleo Investigating com
mittee is scheduled to meet Monday
evening. Chairman Hosack has en
tered suit before a Harrlsburg alder
man against Frank C. Reed, of Pltts
liurg, for contempt In refusing to ap
i."ar before the committee.
The Mackey bill to allow street rail
ways to carry freight and merchandise
is on the house calendar for second
reading and will be called up Monday
night. Even if it should go through
this stage It will hnrdly be reached
on third reading. The Young bill, giv
ing trolley companies the right of em
inent domain has been advanced to
third reading. It has been so loaded
down with amendments that its friends
ore indifferent as to whether it be
comes a law or not.
Tho Pittsburg "Ripper" bill will be
reached Tuesday in the house. It Is on
third reading, and It reports are true
will bo dropped from the calendar on
motion of Its former friends. The
Rodgers bill, which puts Pittsburg In
the same class as Philadelphia will
bo reached Monday night on second
reading and will probably be indef
initely postponed.
NIGHT SESSIONS.
Beginning Tuesday, the house will
hold night sessions four days n week.
'It is absolutely necessary that the
members do that work if they expect
to get away before the middle of tho

F1QI1T ENDS IN CR1A1E.
Three ill en Shot in u l'rncns in Alle
gheny County,
Pittsburg, May 23. Negley Post Of
fice, a. small hamlet near Unity, on
the line of the New Pittsburg, Besse
mer and Lake Erie railroad, was the
scene of a desperate light among color
ed laborers on the road, at an early
hour this morning.
Pay day and a gang of toughs who
tried to get the men's money with
whisky and -cards caused the trouble.
Three men were shot. Keefe, a fore
man, white, aged 30 years; James Ross,
colored, and another colored man nam
ed Gordon.
All the men engaged In the fight
were employed by Rodgers, Parrell and
Hageman, the railroad contractors. On
Thursday the firm paid its employes.
Many" robberies and hold-ups have
been committed In the neighborhood
recently that have not been reported
afterward. It Is thought that tho pres
ent trouble will cause the railroad of
ficials to adopt stringent measures to
put an end to the disturbances that
have kept the Inhabitants of the terri
tory through which the road passes In
a state of continual terror.
Sheriff Harvey Lowry and Ave depu
ties, accompanied by County Detective
Robinson, and two deputies, went to
the scene of the shooting today. They
found tha camp of railroad laborers
quiet, and were unable to securo defi
nite information concsrnlng the trouble.

of Heaven When Out of Trance.
Bellefonte, May 23. Tllllo Faith, the
11-year-old daughter of D. T. Faith,
who lapses into trances, and when she
rccovors tells the most Interesting
stories of Heaven, is the reigning sen
sation in White Township, Clearfield
county.
Tho child has been 111 nearly a year.
Her nflllctlon has thus far puzzled
every doctor who has visited her.
Though sick, no true diagnosis of her
case can be made.
She will remain for hours in a trance
like condition and when recovered will
assert that In spirit she has visited
Heaven. Her story seems to bear out
her statement.
She has described accurately the way
her mother, who died elgh't years ago,
was arrayed for burial, although the
child did not see her dead parent be
fore the funeral. Tlllle said she saw
her mother In Heaven. She also de
scribed a brother who died before she
was born, and the description was so
perfect that the bewildered fath'er Is
not only perplexed, but considerably
frightened. Hundreds of neighbors
have visited the home of the little girl
und conversed with her, and to all the
questions asked she has given remark
ably accurate replies.
