AN EMINENT LECTURER.
Dr. Mattison Wilbur Chase of Chi-
cago. will deliver hl3 celebrated lec-
ture on "Big Bugs rnd Big Humbugs"
next Wednesday evening at the Grand
Opera house. Dr. Chase Is widely
Known as a platform orator and Is
iistinguished as a humorist of the
highest order. Ht is usually de-
scribed as "the silver-tongued orator
"f the north.”
The conservative News and Courier
of Charleston (S. C.) gives the fol-
lowing estimate of Dr. Chase: Dr.
Chase is a brilliant speaker. His pe
i iods are pointed and never fail of
i heir mark. He does not allow his
hearers to become weary with dull ar-
gument. but introduces into the intel-
.ectual menu the spice of humor and
the essence of good-natured criticism.
His words were frequently applauded
and he was made to feel that his
audience had thoroughly enjoyed
everv moment of the time.

Reedsburg Wyo. March 16. —The
simultaneous explosion of 300 pounds
of dynamite by the Northwestern rail-

overhanging crag at Ableman Nar-
rows. The big rock gradually was
sliding toward the track for years
and a watchman was stationed there.
Every house for miles around was va-
cated and an agreement of the com-
pany was made to stand all damages.
The rock was high up but the damage
was small.

NEWS OF THE STATE CAPITAL [
Special to The Light.
Austin. Tex. March 16.—-The free
conference committee report on the
anti-free pass bill is still up in the air
so to speak. The house adjourned yes-
terday evening and up to that time no
report was forthcoming. The members
of thia committee have had this meas-
ure under consideration for the past
several days and every day it was
given out that the report was about
ready and at the last moment it has
been held up. While there has been
considerable speculation as to what
kind of a bill the committee will bring
forth nothing authentic will be given
out until the committee makes its fin-
al report to the legislature which will
not be now until Monday.
• • •
The senate appears to have totally
ignored the sine die resolution adop-
ted in the house fixing the date for
final adjournment on April 6. Nothing
has been heard of the resolution since
it was sent over to the senate and. re-
ferred to the committee on state af-
fairs. The senate may be contemplat-
ing holding up this resolution to get
the house into line and compel the
lower branch to pass some of the bills
which have been sent over there.
There seems to be a lack of har
mony between the house and senate
as is usually the case and one
branch does not like to see the other
branch get the best of the deal. It
may be said however with a degree
of certainty that if the senate concurs
in the house sine die adjournment res-
olution for April 6 most of the plat-
form demands will be found to be still
on the calendar notwithstanding the
governor’s determination to have these
platform pledges redeemed.
It usually takes three weeks in
which to pass finally a general ap-
propriation bill thus it will be ob-
served that if everything is dropped
it will take until April 6 in which to
finally consider this most important
measure.

The house yesterday afternoon con-
curred In the senate amendments to
the Blanton pure food bill and now
the measure goes to the governor for
his signature. The most important
amendment tacked on in the senate
was to change the headquarters of the
pure food commission from the Agri-
cultural and Mechanical college to the
College of Industrial Arts at Denton.

The Confederate Veterans through-
out the state propose to see that no
person is granted a pension under the
state pension act unless such person
is actuality entitled to the same.
There has been considerable discus-
sion regarding this matter notwith-
standing the strict and searching in-
quiry made by the comptroller’s de-
partment regarding all new applica-
tions for pensions.
Senator Holsey of Navarro county
has received a copy of a resolution
adopted at a recent meeting of Camp
Winkler. United Confederate Veterans
at Corsicana touching on the propo-
sition which reads as follows:
"Whereas it has been reported that
In the matter of granting pensions to
Confederate Veterans fraud and im-
position is sometimes practiced so
that some persons are receiving pen-
sions from the state of Texas who are
not entitled to the same thereby les-
soning the amount that should be
drawn by worthy and deserving old
soldiers; and
■ Whereas the county commission-
ers’ courts are generally composed of
men belonging to a younger genera-
tion than those who served in the
army during the war between the
states and who are. therefore liable
to be deceived by imposters claiming
to have been Confederate soldiers:
and whereas it is very important that
the money appropriated by the state
for pensions should be paid only to
those who are entitled to it. There-
fore be it
"Resolved That the legislature is
hereby requested to enact a law la
substance as follows:
“ ‘The county judge of each county
shall appoint a committee to be called
an advisory committee consisting of
nine Confederate Veterans residing
either at or near the county seat
three of whom shall have served in
the Army of Northern Virginia three
in the Army of Tennessee and three
In the Trans-Misslstlppi the same to
be recommended by the United Con-
federate Vetrans Veterans camp of
said county if there is such a camp
whose duty it shall be to examine ev-
ery applicant for a pension or for ad-
mittance Into the Confederate army
and whether or not he deserves a pen-
sion and report their conclusions to
the commissioners’ court. Said com-
mittee shall serve free of cost and
shall meet as often as necessary.’
"This act shall not conflict with any
of the requirements already in force
with regard to applicants for a pen-
sion or for admittance into the Con-
federate home.’’

Representatives Lively and McCal-
lum of Dallas county have Introduced
a bill in the house to regulate junk
and second hand dealers. The bill
provides that it shall be unlawful for
a junk or second hand dealer to re-
ceive or accept from any minor or ni-
toxicated person any articles or goods.

<or second hand dealers shall keep a
register of all such goods received by

ister.

things being in a sanitary condition
sc hotels. He has introduced a bill
In which he has been joined by Rep-
resentative Brown of Wharton to re-
lulrc all hotels and boarding houses to
provide certain bedding to be disin-
fected. The bill provides that all ho-
tels. boarding houses ajvl houses

ticns to the public for pay shall

tting dangerous to the lungs or

A bill was introduced In the house
.esterday by Representative Ken-
nedy providing for an amendment to

thorizing a grade crossing for the
Port O’Connor Rio Grande and North-
ern Railway with the St. Louis
Brownsville and Mexico railway
where these two toads cross each
ether's tracks at Shepley Victoria
county Texas. The construction of
an Interlocking device for the protec-
tion of said crossing was waived by
the commission for the present. The
cost of the device when ordered con-
structed shall be borne by the Port
O’Connor Rio Grande and Northern

The action of the general appro-
priation committee in the house in
inserting a clause in the general ap-
propriation bill requiring all darks
in the various state departments to
work eight hours each day and all
•lavs in the year excepting Sundays
and legal holidays has caused consid-
trable comment among the clerks.
This action means nothing more or
less than cutting out the two weeks
vacation usually given the clerks in
'.he various departments. The cus-
tom of giving vacations to the clerks
is an old and established one and
rhe action of the committee in cutting
this out is causing a great deal of un-
favorable comment. It is true there
is no provision in the bill which pro-
hibits such clerks from getting away
from their work during the summer
but if they do so. the comptroller Is
prohibited issuing his warrant
to such clerk or employe during such
absence.

lishment and maintenance of a home

propriation therefor. The resolution
provides for an appropriation of not
exceeding $150000 to carry its pro
visions into effect. Mrs. J. B. Dibrell
cf Seguin president of the Daughters
rf the Confederacy was present when
tne governor signed the resolution
and she was presented the pen with
which the governor's signature was
affixed to the new act.
The following are the other blllls
signed by the governor:
