A blg liglit was made to ralse thc license tax for thu sale of plstols, nut it was a loslng ono, and lhe matter was left ns In tiiie original blll, tho llcenso boing placed iit $20. The feature of tho sesslon was the ef fcrt of Mr. Smlth, of Clarko, to have tho tax reduced'oh xnutunl bullding and loan assoclatlons. whlch recoilcd und resulted ln the doubling of the tax on all bullding ar.d loan assoclatlons fiom top to bot tom, tho lax belng graduated In tlie blll.

The Houso was called to order at 10 o'elcck by Speaker Ryan ar.d prayer was cffererl by Rev. II, P, Atkins, of the Christlan Churoh.

TRe general tax blll was taken up aa 11 speclal orderfl and much progress waa made with lt, but few omondments having fceen offered. AA'hen the section was reached wmich relates to the tax on steam laundries, Mr. Sebrell, of Southampton, champloned the cause of tho old colored washer woman, whom, he sald, might be taxed lf tho largruage were not made plalner. Ho thought wrltitfers and flat-lrons might be construed as machinery. Mr. AVhlte hcad, while ndvocating the report of the commlttee, was asked by Mr. Boaz if he c-culd explaln the dlfferenco between a macnlno polltlclan ond other polltlclans.

The amendment was lost, and tho House pi-oceeded and made much progress with the conslderation of the measure. Mr. AA'httehead got through an amendment prohlbltlng tbe dispensing of lntoxlcatlng liouors, throush slot machines, and Mr. Kurman offered a bill to make valld a certaln deed by A'irclnia F.
