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.

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.
