Tho successful pass-IRQ of the P.rnn
lie secondary penitentiary bill was
dramatic and unexpected. The vote
on It stood Kl to .1 1, nnd tho emergen

remarkable change of sentiment was
Indicated by the fact that nil the

opposed tho public bulldlngH bills vot
ed for the measure, while Messrs
Durant, McCalla and other leaders of'
tho fight to locate Institutions, voted
against It. McCalla made tho motion
