LAWMAKERS' WORK WILL NOT HE HEAVY (Contin'ued from Page One.) be made to repeal the entire statute, thereby abolishing the commission. and a suggestion is that the light is not so much on the idea as it is upon the e-personnel of the present commission, -and that the Senato will be asked not dto confirm the appointments. Everything that has thus far been suggested in the line of now positions or increases of salaries has been de teated. Mr. McMahan and others want the salaries of State olicials and judges increased, but the idea is mak ing little headway, as much as it Is -realized that such a course is neces sary. The library commission plan failed on the same account. A development of some importance is in connection with tunition at the various institutions. There will be propositions looking to the abolition -of tuition altogether. Some of the 'members wish to repeal the law pro viding for any free scholarships. 'l'lTe chances, however, are that Mr. ii otto's bill will be used as a basis for whatev er legislation is adopted. .ilr. Hiutto seggnsts that the State employ a mnan at $1,200, whose duty it shall be to see that the free tuition applieations are bona fide, and that. the State is not being imposed upon. Some think that this work can be done through the State bank examiner's oflice or other existing departments, but the idea is that the county auditors and treasur ers should make a more diligent effort to prevent impositions in the matter of free scholarships. The State institu "tions accept the certifileates that are ,filed under the present law. The attendance upon the session this year has been remarkably good, and there :.. s been no death of mom bers during the year, whiili is quite unusual. Wednesday, the 19th, being a legal holiday, Lee's birtllay, there will be no legislative session. Thus far the assembly has no invitation for an out. oftown trip. There is talk that .\1r. Frank ('arey's name will be suggested for the posi tion of the con inission ot' the ware house system. Mr. Carey is a success ful man and cotton buyer, of Ander son. He is a former member of the house. Mr. Jos. A. MfcCullough, who was recently married in Baltimore, is ac companied by his wife in Columbia during the session, and the members have found irs. .leCullough altogeth er charming and delightful. The old familiar figure of N. 0. Pyles who has been the eflelient mail carrier for many years, has not been seen on the floor this year. lIe is Iquite sick.-Aigust Kohn in News and Courier.

OLD POLISH CAPITAL CORRESPONDENT WRITES OF THE CHARMS OF CRACOW. City Has Many Beauties, and Its Citi. zens Are Refined and Gentle Scenes In the Market Held'In the Great Square. Is it not true that cities, like houses, reflect the characters of their Inhabi tants? Somebody said that Berlin has .the air of a rich, well-fed woman who is dressed by the most expensive mod istes and has everything that money can buy but never the unpurchasable quality of charm. Now, Cracow is her opposite; she is like a lady of ancient but unhappy race conscious but un complaining of her great sorrows; she is fascinating, distinguishel, simple. Cracow, small as it is, is the heart of Poland, and in Poland's days of free dom. long ago, was its capital. But the object of this little article is not to relate the tragic history of Polai, but just to give a brief sketch of the simple life in beautiful Cracow, bef'oro the war began. In the middle of the town is the great square where stands the splen did church of Our Lady. There is a covered market, where the stalls are mnostly kept by Jews, but in the open are the peasants from the coun try with their milk and cheese, vege tables and poultry. The peasant women wear gay-colored clothes and carry huge burdens. on their backs, a dozen milk cans, a bundle of brush wood, a bushel of bread baked in great loaves nearly two yards long. In their high clumsy boots they tramp sturdily along, quite able and willing to do a man's work in the world as well as to bear a woman's burden. A lady who visited Cracow shortly before the outbreak of the war was greatly impressed by the burdens borne by people of a little higher rank than the peasant. These burdens were mostly geese-white, long necked, squawking geese. Every oth er man, woman and child seemed to be carrying a goose. Sometimes they were carried under the arm of the purchaser. Often under each arm, sometimes in a carpet bag with long neck protruding and the bright eyes eagerly searching the passers-by as though enjoying the novel ride. Some times a basket contained as many as three geese and sometimes they were slung unceremoniously over the shoul der of the owner, their legs tied to gether and their necks craned up to prevent a rush of blood to the head. Now and then a stout lady would pass with a goose in the ample bosom of her dress or coat, only the head of the fowl showing under her chin. The geese were generally treated with consideration and respect, children stopping to caress their snaky necks. It was hard to believe that these pets were destined for the pot on the mor row. To be sure there were other things for sale besides geese; rolls of golden butter and leaves' of cheese folded together in a way that you nev er see outside Poland. In another part of the great square is the vegetable market, with its green and purple cabbages, cauli iowers and llrussels sprouts; salsify, onions, and dried mus11hr-oms on long, stringcs worn like a n eckbwe over the nI(eeks of the v'enders'i. ihtt onl oo;ie mrke (t dayv in Cra Cowv the cen~te'r of' thle sin 'e bel'ongso to thlei goose.
