Februarys, on its way to the statute books was Senator Shookney's bill looking to tho-breaklng of pools and trusts. Having been absent several days on account of sickness, the Senate asked unanimous consent to consider the measure, which was liven, and it was road the third time by scotions. The main provisions are that all trusts, pools and combinations tending to prevent Eull and free competition in the productidl. matiufacturo or sale of any arti ste prodded in any State or country, that seek to regulate the production of price of sny commodity, or tend in any way to sreate a monopoly, arn declared to be eonspiracles to defraud tho Dubllc. unlawful. against public policy 'and void.

McOinnis' bill to extend the operation of the metropolitan police law to all cities in-the State having a popu lation ot 30,000 or more, came up for a second reading in the Legislature Feb. 9. The committee on cities and towns recommended that the bill be amended 50 as to make the law applicable to all cities having above 14,000 children enroiled in their public schools. Several senators, especially Mr, Hubbell, were curious to know why such an amendment was proposed, and what the number of school children had to do with the poiico law. It' was brought by successive questions that Torre Haute wants tho la, but Fort Wayne does not, but that each has more than 29,000 Inhabitants.. In this predicament tho committee, with a desire to please everybody, cast about for some means of giving Torre Ho nte, with 31,000 people, tho law it wanted, and at the same time making it inapplicable to Fort Wayne, with 35,000. The following bills were introduced: To require building and loan associations to file statements of their condition semi annually with the Auditor of State; to abolish the office of State Librarian and place the library in cliargo of tho cus todian of public buildings; providing for boards of health of three mem bora in cities of 15,000 inhabitants or over.

Mr. Ewlng's bill to abolish the State Board bf Agriculture and establish In its dioco a "state Agricultural ana indus trial Board" was a special order for 11:30 o'clock, but it was again postponed, What at Boy Can Bememben, Talk to a man about the pie he used to have when he was a boy, and it will remind him of how his mother uaed jtol stand with the knife in one hand and count the faces at the table before she commenced to cut the pie. If his mother made the right kind of pie, and all boys' mothers did, he can remember yet how he used to wish there were not so many folks at the table. When a young man starts out to be a "blood" he should be furnished with a plentiful supply of antiseptics, there are so many oiaer men aoouc town engaged in blood poisoning. Loalon lmnsortpi.
