End of the Legislature.
After an all-night session of wild dis
order, the Legislature of 1893 adjourned
last Thursday noon.
The fight in the House during the night
was over some street railway bills, which
had already passed the Senate. The
friends of these bills resorted to every
known expedient to have them passed by
the House, but the opposition to these bills
consumed the time by talking, having the
roll called in motions to take recesses, etc,
until they were defeated.
The general appropriation bill was not
taken up until 8 o'clock in the morning,
and after it was passed and some amend
ments to the new Election law agreed to,
both houses adjourned until near noon,
when the usual presentations of silver
services and iyory gavels were made, reso
lutions adopted, and the Legislature ad
journed with out day.
The principal bills passed during the
session, other than the appropriation bills
were the free text books and fee bills and,
both ofwhich appear in full in this paper,
and the changes made in the new Election
law as follows:
The size of the ballot is decreased one
half by omitting the i addresses fef candi
dates;only one set of ballots andsample bal
lots are necessary; reduces the percent age
for party nominations fromJ3 to 2;increases
the time allowed for printing the ballots;
provides that the printing of the ballots
for Bpring elections shall be done under
the supervision of the County Commission
ers; certificates of nominations for mem
bers of the House of Representatives shall
be filad with the County Commissioners in
stead of the Secretary of the Common
wealth; provides that one mark in a circle
at the top of a column of candidates shall
be a vote for every one in that column.
Where the circle is not marked,a mark for
every candidate voted for is required. A
screen, or door must be placed on the front
of each booth, there-by better securing
privacy. The bill provides for greater
thickness of paper for ballots and the
corner of the ballot folded over shall be
printed black so the number cannot be
seen through the paper. In case a voter
votes for more persons than be is en titled
to the whole ticket is not
thrown out, but so much of it as is proper-
Ty maneq MWXT ewmtea. TUB <n>at?ni
ty clause of the act of 1801 is unchanged,
but a penal clause is provided for anyone
who falsely represents his disability.
On Saturday Gov. Pattison appoved of
the following bills:
To provide for the punishment of persons
wilfully procuring the publication of
false statements, relating to the filing by
trustees, etc. of statements showing the
manner of investments; making appropri
ation to the State College; to regulate the
employment and provide for the.safety of
women and children in manufacturing and
other establishments; to provide for costs
of trials in Huntingdon county of those
who violate the law while inmates of Re
formatory; to authorize the retention of
olerks in the Adjutant General's Depart
ment to copy muster rolls; the Philadel
phia wharf bill; making appropriation to
pay for expenses of compiling and publish
ing of laws of the Province of Pennsylva
nia; relating to the boundary lines between
cities and boronghs and townships; fixing
compensation of accounting officers of
boards of charities, to apply the 180 th
section of the penal law of March 31, 1800,
to all penal laws; making appropriation
for a bronze tablet to represent the soldiers
of the Pennsylvania Continental line on
the batte monument being erected at
Trenton; providing for the incorp oration
of companies loi the manufacture of sil
verware and jewelry.
Gov. Pattison vetoed the Verona local
option bill Monday night. His objections
to the bill are that it was not introduced
by the representative of the district, who
lives at Verona, and petitions, letters, etc.,
which have been received for and against
the repeal; but the undoubted weight of
evidence in the case is favorable to the ex
isting law, the operation of which, be says,
has given general satisfaction and secur
ity.
The governor attached his signature to
the general appropriation bill, which ap
propriates about $15,500,000 for the ordi
nary expenses of the executive,judicial and
legislative departments of the common
wealth, interest on the public debt and for
the support of tho public schools for the
next two fiscal years, beginning June 1.
These bills wero all also approved by the
governor:

The Free Text Bill.
The following is a copy of the Free
Text Bill passed by this Legislature,which
having received the Governor's signature,
is now a law: An Act to amend the first
section of an act entitled "An act author
izing School Directors to purchase school
books out of the district fund, approved
June twenty-fiflh, one thousand eight
hundred and eighty-five, by requiring
School Directors or Controllers to furnish
school books and other school supplies
free of cost.
Section 1. Be it enacted by the senate
and House of Representatives of the Com
monwealth of Pennsylvania in General
Assembly met and it is hereby enacted by
the authority of the same that section
first of said act that reads as follows:
"That School Directors or Controllers may
purchase text books for use in the public
schools of their respective school districts
out of the school lunds of the district, and,
when so procured, the necessary books
shall be supplied free of cost to each pupil
for use in the schools of said district, sub
ject to the orders of the Directors thereof,
whose duty it shall be to provide for the
safe keeping and care of the books, which
shall be returned at the close of the annual
school term in each year, or as the Board
may direct,"' be and the same is hereby
amended so as to read as follows:
Section 1. That School Directors or Con
trolors shall purchase text books and other
necessary scientific and mechanical sup
plies for use in the public schools of their
respective school districts out of the school
funds of the district, and that at least one
third of all books be provided each year
until all of the books required are furnish
ed, and, when so procured, the necessary
boohs and school eupplies shall be furnish
ed free of cost to each pupil for use in the
schools of said district, subject to the or
ders of the Directors thereof, whose duty it
shall be to provide for the safe keeping and
care of the books which shall bo retnrned.
Section 2. That no school district shall
receive its portion of the State appropria
tion to which it may be entitled until the
provisions of this act snail have been com
plied with.
Thus it will be seen that before any
school districts in the State shall have re
ceived its portion of the State appropria
tion for the year ending May 31, 1894, so
much of the provisions of this bill shall
have been complied with as to cause them
to have secured at least the one-third of all
the books required for the use of the pupils
in their respective districts. As there is
nothing in the bill debarring them, they
may if they desire, secure all at the be
ginning, that is to say, commence the
school term this Fall, v. ith a supply suf
ficent to furnish free text books to all of
the pupils. The bill is not clear as to the
bounden duty of a Board of Directors, or
what they shall or shall not do before the
full amount of books necessary to furnish
all pupils with books and supplies shall
have been procured, but it in reasonable to
suppose that they will not let them lie
dormant, but that they will furnish books
as needed to the extent of their supply;
and it is scarcely probable that in any dis
trict the supply of one-third will not be
sufficient to obliviate the necessity of any
further purchase of school books on the
part of the pupil, as a large proportion of
the books owned by them will be fit for
service, and with the spirit of co-operation
properly exercised, they can be made to
bridge over the partial supply. The care
that the Directors should take of the books
which should be returned is a little am
biguously stated, but it certainly cannot
be reasonably construed to mean other
than that they shall provide for the safe
keeping and care of the books returned at
the close of an annual term, or when a
pupil shall withdraw from the school or for
any cause cease to need them. Whilst ihe
bill may be subject to some criticism; and
which it undoubtedly is, yet it is an ad
vance step and will undoubtedly prove a
great blessing to many. We would have
liked that it had gone further and provid
ed for the publication of the broks by the
State and the furnishing of them at cost to
the various School Boards This would
have necessitated a uniform series of text
books in each principal method of school
work but we can see no objection to this,
can rather see many advantages; the bar
tering and dickering of every ambitious
author for the introduction of hi# books
would have been avoided, and the best
thought would have been brought to bear
in selecting a series that would have been
open to the least criticism, and pupils who
might by any exigency be transferred to
another school would only be continuing
the same line of education under different
instructors, and thus time not only be
saved, but better results secured. But a
strti uiuto important result would have
been attained, the middle man would have
been avoided, and with the very largo num
ber to be printed, every safeguard having
been thrown around their publication, the
minnimum cost would have been reached,
thus making a material saving to every
School Board. The objection that the di
versified books now in use would have
made the adoption of a uniform series im
practionable could have been overcome by
not having the law operated in districts
where the books in use were not the same
as the adopted series till the Directors
wore ready to suppy each pupil with
books, which as now provided lor, cannot
exceed three years, but which might have
been reduced to meet this objection to two
years without impoverishment to the State.
But the fact remains, wo are to have free
text books in our schools, and as we said
at the beginning, we believo the step a
wise one—one that will do much to ad
vance the cause of education, and lift a
burden from many who have found il not
only onerous, but who in many cases have
been forced not only to abandon studies
they should have taken, but school itself,
because of their inability to provide the
necessary text books.— ■ New Castle Guard

AT New Bedford, Mass., Monday, the
trial of a celebrated criminal case was
begun. It is the case of the Common
wealth vs Miss Lizzie Borden, accused of
the murder of her father and step-mother.
The ol|dcouple were killed with an ax
near noon of August 4th last; no other
member of the family except Lizzie and
the hired girl were at home at the time;
the hired girl took sick during the morn
ing and went to bed; Lizzie was seen in
the parlor reading and shortly after she
announced the murder to the girl. No
body was seen entering or leaving the
house, and the police, after waiting for
weeks came to the conclusion that Lizzie
was the gnilty party, and had her arretted.
Her lather was wealthy, and both he and
his wife were misers.
End of the Briggs Case.
Having decided byayotcof3B2 to 110
that they had a heretic on their hands in
the person of Briggs, the first thing for the
Presbyterian General Assembly to do -when
it met last Thursday morning was to con
sider what should be done with him. Ac
cordingly a committee was appointed to
bring in a verdict, and its members were
requested to got to work at once. After a
long session the committee brought in this
recommendation: "Suspension from the
ministry," and the Assembly adopted tin;
report.
During the session of the committee a
motion was made by Dr. Stewart to adopt
• resolution admonishing Dr. Briggs for
his delivery of the inaugural, and request
ing him to refrain from the further spread
of his teachings, against which the Church
has spoken. It was suggested however, by
another member that possibly admonition
would bo of no avail, and it was decided
that a sub committee wait upon l)r. Briggs
and ascertain what position he would take
in that case.
As they had expected from his
they found that Dr. Briggs was not dis
posed to take back or modify anything
which he had said. Upon making this re
port to the full committee, it was decided
that the only other thing to do was to sus
pend him from the lurther practice of the
offices of a Presbyterian minister, ar.d this
was agreed to by a unanimons vote.
Dr. Briggs is suspended indefinitely, and
can only bo reinstated on his recantation
of the matter in his speeches and writings
>to which objection has beer. made. It is
unlikely that he will ever do that.

NEIGHBORHOOD NOTES.
Fred Sheffner of Shaler twp., Allegheny
county, near Bennett Station on the West
Penn P. P. shot his wife last Thursday,
and then tried to poison himself.
Blanch Stowers fell from a raft into the
riyer at Springdale, Allegheny county last
Thursday. Her brother tried to save her,
and both were drowned.
A drunken mob of men and women land
ed from a steamboat at Economy last Sat
urday, and took possession of the town;
but were driven back to their boat by men
called in from tho fields.
An amusing story is told of an aged gen
tleman of rather peculiar actions who was
some time ago elected constable of a cer
tain ward in Titusville. During his first visif
to the county seat, after his introduction
into office, the judge took occasion to im
press upon the minds of the different con
stables of the county who were present,
the importance of living strictly up to the
law in the discbarge of the various duties
connected with the high and important
offices, especially so in relation to makiug
semi-occasional visits to places in their
baliwicks whero liquors were sold, in order
to see that the stringent liquor laws were
strictly enforced. A few days after he re
turned home the constable in question re
alizing the great importance of his position,
started oat to inspect the saloons in his
precinct- About the first move he made
was to ent-r a hotel, eail the proprietor
aside and say to him in tho strictest confii
dende: "John, as high constable of this
ward, in the fulfilment of my duties as
that dignitary, and as per instructions from
his honor, the judge, I am coming around
here in about half an hour to see that
everything is all right when I come as this
is a matter of great importance and the
law must be lived up to under my direc
tion."
A small black bug never before seen by
the farmers is said to be destroying the
corn crop in southern Chester county and
in Cecil county, Md. The bug eats the
ttalk clean down to the roots.
Owen Maloney fell from the top of one
of the Allegheny electric light towers last
Tuesday and was instantly killed.
Wilson Kobinson, a farmer of Blair
county had a terrible experience with a
vicious horse at his farm on Monday. fie
was driving the animal in company with
several more into the barn. lie struck it
with a whip, and the fierce brute at once
attacked him, kicking him with both feet.
He was hurled several feet, and as he arose
was attacked again, receiving a kick that
fractured bis jaw. Tho animalj seemed
content after this, and Mr. Kobinson stag
gered toward his house. He had nearly
reached it when tho horse rushed at him
again and kicked him through tho kitchen
door, fracturing bis skull. He will prob
ably die as a result. The horse was shot.
An enterprising swindler has been work
ing some of our neighboring towns very
successfully. lie represents himself as the
agent for a well known sawing machine
company sent to the town by the company
iu question to put all the machines of that
peculiar make in order free of cost. None
have refused, and all the machines have
received a thorough overhauling, lor which
no charge has been exacted. By a singu
lar coincidence, howevc-r, every macliinn
examined is found to bavo an unexpected
worn or broken part, and the charge for
replacing this varies from $1 to $lO, which
tho victim generally paya without a mur
mur.
Findlay, 0., is a sad and desolate exam
ple of a town whose boom has collapsed.
The town grew with astonishing rapidity
when gas was struck. Then the gas play
ed out and tho haughty town began the
toboggan act. There are now 000 vacant
houses in the place. To add to tho gloom
the big glass manufactories that located
there have agreed to move their plants,
not later than July Ist. some removing to
Pennsylvania aud the others to towns iu
tho Indiana gas fields. This exodus will
take about 4,000 people from the place.
This has been a backward season for the
swindlers who work the country districts.
However, industry continues ti reap ils
modest rewards. A lightning-rod artist
recently did missionary work near Green
ville and swindled Aaron Wasser out of
$lO4 and Adam Holfacker out of $125.
THE Republicans of Allegheny county
held their several delegate conventions
Monday and placed in nomination the fol

As item iu a Chicago paper shows in a
striking manner what an undertaking it
would be to "do" the "World's Fair in do
tail. There are about 7,000 pictures in the
art gallery, and if the visitor gave them all
one minute apiece, on the average, and
spent ten hours a day at sight seeing, ho
would require nearly twelve days to see this
department of the Exposition alone.

MA V BKOTUEKH, Nurserymen, KooUester, NY,
THK newspaper press is A mighty in
stitution. It makes and unmakes poli
ticians And statesmen. It sometimes be
stows reputation upon those who deserve
it not and takes away from the deserving
even that which he hath. The average
county constituency imagines its members
ot Assembly do not amount to anything
because they are seldom noticed by the
press, and conceive the notion that the
city members are great men because they
receive mention. It comes about in this
way; Only the leading papers have cor
respondents at Harrisborg. These corre
spondents naturally pay more attention to
the members from their own city than to
country members, because they are their
home men. The city papers circulate
in the country, and the country people,
seeing the names ol the city members used
often in bold headlines, conclude that they
are the mighty men of Judea.
Another thing: City members know that
if they serve their constituents faithfully
and make a creditable showing they will
be returned as often as they will serve.
They thus become more and more compe
tent each successive term. But the coun
ty member as a rule feels that, no matter
what he does, he cannot be re-elected
without a hard fight, and perhaps not at
all. He realises that his constituents will
not look at the matter in a business sense,
but will regard the office as a charity to be
passed around, and say it is not his turn
next time.
Thus the budding genius of the country
member is nipped by the frosts of ingrati
tude before it gets tinre to blossom and
bear fruit. — Ptinxsutatcney Spirit.
