not take up tho merger hill until
after Its disposition ty tho Senate.
Tilt- liill lias been adversely re
ported to tin- Senate, but the House
committee declined to commit Itself,
merely reporting out tho measure
without iceommendat ion, It la gen
e raI' y conceded tliaf tho real contest
will l>e staged In tho Senate and. If
tho upper body favors the mcnstir?,
tin. House will take similar action.
The Senate, upparently. Is about
evenly divided on the ' "?r,n with
the prospect* thst neithci s.ui
get a majority of more than ou..
two votes, whichever way the voto
goes.
The prohibition question again will
be to th" !"oro this w?ek, probably
coming up on Thursday on a bill to
transfer the duties ot the State Pro
hibition Department to the office of
tho Attorney-General. The bill, in ad
dition. puts teeth in the enforcement
a< t I v increasing rewards for otll
elals making seizure of stills and by
repealing the Deal "search and soir.
ure" act, which proyiiles a stiff
penalty for search of property. In
chulinn automobiles, without a war
rant. and penalizes tlie magistrate
wrongfully issuing :t warrant. The
measure already has passed the
House, with an amendment providing
for tho ousting c.f an oflicial derelict
in the enforcement of the prohibition
law.
Dry* Oppose Amendment.
Setator I.ouix S. Kpos, of Nottoway,
proposes to offer an amendment to
11?? ? prohibition bill which would for
ever bar front employment by the
Attorney-General's enforcement of
ficers either of lite prohibition direc
tors who have held olllce under the
prest nt law. This amondmt nt. it is
said, will he opposed by the dry lead
ers as being an unwarranted attack
on tli<' two nun. one of whom, the
incumbent, 1- prominently mentioned
for a pitoiitt ment hy the Attorney
? ?encral as his assistant at the head
of tli?? enforcement department.
Tile House passed the prohibition
bill hy a decisive vote and its pas
s-age hy the Senate is expected, al
though not hy so large a majority.
Tho House will take up tli. geti
erai appropriations hill. carrying
Sif.l.tilf'.'.immediately after tli*"- re
disricting measure i-' <u:t it" th"
way. The budget has the approval
? t both committees nnd probably will
adopted with few ehaiiKcs, al

The Hyrd-< *zl in and Willis-Henley

differ in their disposition, of the
Highway Commissioner, the forme;
advocating the abolition of the pro.i

of a business executive t ? he direct

The Pnge-Brown-Ewcll pilotage

Colonel I'ai'Uor Is traveling ubout
ih0 country tolling tho people ubout
llio Salvation Army and what It
stands for. About this timo every
year tho annual plea l.s mudo for
funds for tho conduct of the work,
aiitl that tho work may bo the bet
ter Impressed upon tho people. Col
onel l'arker carries ulong with him
an interesting and instructive series
of 111ms und stcrcoptieau views,
showing the work of Salvationists,
and the happy results or their *ef
lorts in cleaning lower humanity, not
only physically, hut spiritually.
Tho pictures showed some of tho
great Kast Side neighborhoods in
New York, with their scrambling and
grasping hordes eking existence as
l;ost they can, while children trow
up under all sorts of handicaps atnl
with everything against them in their
light with disease and crime. One
picture proved especially interesting.
It allowed a little family slowed
a'vay In two dilapidated rooms away
up in an Kast Side tenement. Tho
mothed lay on her slek beil, the bed
being a few inverted, boxen covered
with old clothes and ? ..?;s of various
vintages. Two children stood near.
]>eatli M.'etiH-d near when i be sluicing
mother suddenly thought of tho Sal
vation Army. She whispered to the
older of the children, who ran out
I into the streel in search of the head
quarters of the Army. She told her
i.tury, and la a short w hil?f two j
"Army lassies" were at the bedside, j
ministering to thu mother, and in ai
fhort time a complete transforma
tion had taken place. The room hud
hein furnished with bright and
usable furniture; food and fuel were
supplied: medicine and attendance
were given, and the Utile family
pso.spered. The picture was taken
from an actual occurrence, and was.
as pointed out liv l he lecturi-r. but
j one of many which caipe to light
I every day in tho large cities, while
| just as many, comparatively speak
ing. were under observation right
I here in Richmond.

At tho conclusion of the lecture,
Henry Schvvarzsehlld, one of tho j
members of tho local advisory board. '
inadu a short address:
"1 Know what you people are
thlnkinK about," he mild. "You aro j
saying tc? yourself that I am going, :
in u minute, to ask ^ou lo comu '
across with snmq, money. And not
to fool you. I ain going to say that ]
very thing. You have heard tlio j

the needy to bo relieved. We can't
do it ourselves, for wo don't know
how. Hut wo etui give our lltt'e bit.
Now cotiio on across."
A large sum was contributed, prac
tically every one in that large Utidl
ance giving something, while many
signed curds pl-dglng a sum to bo
s?iii In inoiitlily. The campaign Is
on in earnest. Tlo advisory board
