It was the usual jollification, however, and prohibitionist and local optionist locked arms and carroled forth the old songs, being interrupted occasion ally by a mock session. The galleries and floors were crowded at times by visitors, who watched the proceed ings with interes.t .and amusement. Upon Lieut. Gov. McLeod, Speaker * Whaley and the committees on free conference the work devolved. The engrossing department at times was * rushed and at 'times waited on reports. The attaches in both houses had to keep their eyes on every amendment and read carefully the insertions in order that the acts might be correctly enrolled. The house commenced early to make preparations to adjourn. A re solution was passed allowing third reading bills to be considered on the last day. There were only three on the calendar: Senator Johnson-Providing for hthe appointment of the dispensary board of Fairfield. Senator Walker-Authorizing the - payment of certain back pensions. Senator Crosson-To require the cnty superintendent of education of Lexington to pay a certain claim. There was a split in the Lexington delegation over this, Mr. Ridgell urg ing its passage and Mr. I. Edwards wanting it killed. The bill was finally passed after a roll call. Then followed a long wait with oc casional conference and free confer enee reports. During one of the recesses the r"ghost walked "and the members re ceived their checks for $200 for a ses sion of 47 days. Before last year the pay was $4 per day per member for not exceeding 40 days.

TIhen the commnitttee was app~oinit edl to wait on the governor and a com mttee appo;inted to notify the senate that everything was read:: to adjourn. In accordance with the usual eus tom, Mr. T. B.

After hearing some committee reports, .Mr. Foster, of* Lancaster had called up his resolution authorizing Sergeant-at-Arms Wilson to buy desks and chairs similar to the furniture in the senate. Mr. Foster said the desks and chairs may not be as expensive, but some new ones were needed. Mr. Wingo pointed out the expense, which would be useless. Mr. Rich a'rds indorsed the resolu tion. "The desks were filled with dis ease germs,"q he said, amid laughter. The house had seen the senate beauti fied and had passed a resolution au thorizing the committees to buy new furniture for the rooms. The house should be considered now. Mr. Rucker also thought the house .,bould in some slight degree be im proved. Mr. Duvall thought the expenditare of about $5.000 was involve.1 in inis matter. Mr. Foster asked Lf sir. D~uvall would be willing to allow three mem bers who wanted to buy new desks to get them. Mr. Duvall said he would be will ing if the members paid for them.

Mr. Duvall begged the house not to consider this until the lincher was applied on the resolu tion. The house, in the worst tem per of the present session, created so much disorder that Speaker Smith called on the .sergeant-at-arms to quell the Elisturbance.
