lerk Thomas C. Hamer, who an
ounced that a quorum was present.
peaker Stevenson then took charge
f the body and called upon the Rev.
r. Abney to open the session with
rayer. -
Speaker Stevenson, in addressing
he House, said in part:
Since adjournment it has been fin
Ily settled that the county govern.
ents of most counties are only
efective governments; that the laws
tablishiny t iem nire in vilati ua
f the constitution and that one of
he first acts established should be a
eneral county government act.
He said that a new jury bill was
ocersary and that the laws regard
ag trusts, railroad legati'oi and child
pbor in the mills needed immediate
ttention.
Rev. R. L. Pratt was elected Chap
in of the House. The friends of
ev. M. M. Kinard, of Columbia,
o is a nAtive af Newberry, placed
m in nomination, and he cam
thin fonr votes of being elected
aplain.
At this juncture Gen. Robt. R.
mph ill, Clerk of Senate, appeared
d.announced that the Senate had
anized and was ready for business.
A committee was appointed to
tify Governor McSweeney that the
ouse was ready for work and any
mmuniintions from him.
Private Secretary Aull soon ap.
ared and stated that he had the
nnual Message from Governor Mc
weeney, and the communication
E clearly read by .heading 01 erk
ithers. The reading of the doe
ment was given close attention.
*The house sent its cliuk to the
enate to advise that body that it
as ready for wo,rk.
Speaker Stevenson annouinced the
ollowing appo intn.ents for the ses
,lon.
Assistant .clerk of the House, J.
ileon Gibbes.
V ages: Calkonn DeBruhi, Ward
aw Addicke, 0. J1. Coicoek, Ji-., and
. W. Evans.
*Do:3rkeepers: Peter SanderA, S.
L. Roper snd J. 0' Jennings.
The following appointments on
comeoiittees .were announced by
peaker Stevenson:
Mr. Laurie T. Islar on improve.
ments and ways and means.
Mr. Hugh on judiciary and en
rolled Acts.
Mr. Johnson on State House and
rounds and public schools.
Mr. Towell on Education and pub
ic printing.
Mr. Beamguard introduced a reso
ution asking that a special comn
ittee be appointed to mike a report
pon all vacanci'es that were to be
lied so that the dates for the elec
Ions might be fixed.
This resolation was adopted and
esrs Beamgnard, Patterson and
ominiok were appoin ted to "aport
pon the matter.
Mr. Prince, of. Anderson, offered a
OBlhtiQn that the election of Judges
'e held on Friday of this week. He
aid that he was anxions to have
Viose elections out of the way and
that everyone knew what a terrible
hiisance it was to be button-'holed
by the friends of candidates, and
that its long as the elections were
pending it would be a source of con
stant annoyance. There was no
good in a delay, as the members had
all protty w'll decided w4o they
would vott for and no good could
come from having the elections tll
held at the same time.
Mr. Sanders, of Spartanburg,
wanted the Judges' elections held on
next Tuesday. He thought to hold
the elections on Friday would be an
unnecessary hurry and that the mem
bors ought to have ample time in
which to study the records of the
men they are asked to vote for and
to see the men themselves, as Mr.
Prince had suggested. No good, that
he could se%, would come from such
haste.
Mr. Dominick wanted to postpone
the matter until tomorrow so that
dates could be fixed for all of the
elections at that time.
Both motions ware lost, and the
House voted to have the election of
Judges on Friday of this week, and
that will be the time if the Senate
agrees to the House resolution.
Governor McSweeney sent in two
ve"o, 9 to bills that had been passed at
the last session, an account of which
appears in another column.
On motion of Mr. Sinkler so much
of the Governor's messeage as refers
to the lost State bond4, the property
of the State Bank, Was referred to
the judiciary committee, together
with the pending bill upon the same
subject.
The House then took up the Cal
endar work left over from last ses
sion. .
Mr. Rainsford withdrew his bill
relative to the holding of farmers'
institutes on the ground that Clem
son College had already arranged for
such institutes.
Mr. Webb, of Aiken, moved that
the child labor bill from the Aiken
delegation be recommitted to the
opmuittee on manufacturing and
commerce. He stated that the rea
si n for doing this was because the
committee already had a Senate bili
on the same subject, and that the
purpose was to consider the Senate
bill, now before the committee, at
the same time as the House bill.
The House adjourned at 2:15 to
day.
IN THE SENATE.
January 14.-The Senate met this
morning at 12 o'clock. Long before
the hour of meeting Senators, mem
bers, friends and acquaintances ex
changed greetings and the chamber
looked quite like a reception room
for-a short while. At noon the Lieu
tenant Governor entered escorted by
the sergeant at-arms. The Rev. D.
Z manerman, of the Main street Meth
odist church, the chaplain offered an
appropriate p)rayer, after which Lieu
tenant Governor Tillman formally
called the body to order. The pre
siding officer then delivered the fol
lowing address:
Senators: in obedience to the
lawn of this Commonwealth you are
again summoned to your post of
duty. Fresh from the happy hours
.if ths Ynletide your thoughts now
turn to mote serious things. That
justice and wisdom will characterize
your deliberations 'twere needless to
prophesy. But rememeer, man, that
ht range connecting link between dust
and Deit y, is prone to criticise, some
times to slander. Disappointment
awaits him whose endeavor would be
to please a whole people; though
when fsortified in .the fortress of duty
well done he rbay bid defiance to
those who envy.
In the past twelve months parti
sans threw aside their partisanship,
parties were for a time forgot while
a nation knelt beside the bier of a
m-irtyred President; but through
Almighty benevolence the grim
Reaper has not entere'd here and we
arc once more permitted to'welcome
with kindly greetings each and every
member of the diptinguished body.
I.invoke your aid and assistance
during the session. I hope to be
fair.- I pray to be jest. Let noth
ing mar your proceedings, but I
would ave you feel like D'Artagnan
and his musketeers: "All for pne
one for allP'"-t,hat all, Carolinal
I now declare the Senate of South
Carolina ready for any business that
may properly come before it.
Senator Sheppard made the usual
motion that a committee be appoint
ed to notify the Governor that the
Sonitte had been organized and was
ready for niy communication which
might be sent by the Governor. Sen
ators Sheppard, Barnwell and Brown
were appointed on the committie
and, as it was purely a formal mat
ter, they soon returned and reported.
In the meantime Mr. T. M. Ray
sor was sworn in as Senator from
Orangeburg, to succeed Mr. T. F.
Brantley.
The President announced the ap.
pointment of Mr. e S. Dingle, of
Charliet.n, as Journal clerk and Mr.
P. D. Butler as bill clerk.
Private Socrotary Aull came in and
delivered the message of the Gover
nor to the Senate. It was read by
Mr. Dingle, in the absence of Mr.
Stewart, the reading clerk, who was
detained at home in Rock Hill.
After the reading of the message
Senator Raysor was placed on the
various committees upon which his
predecessor was.
Senator Sheppard introduced a
resolution that the matter of all elec
tions be referred to the committee on
privileges and elections. Before
that resolution was put another wias
introduced to the same effect by Sen
ator Sheppard that the committee on
elections had already taken up the
subject and would report as soon as
possible. The object is to get the
elections out of the way in order that
the Legislature may attend to other
business.
On motion of Senator Blakely two
hundred copies of the rules will be
printed.
Senator Mower moved that the
sergeant at arms be instructed to
purchase a clock, not to cost more
than $50, and to get one whereby
members might see what the right
time is without having to figure out
whether the hands pointed to the
signs of the zodiac, the day of the
mouth or what not.
A motion was then made to ad
journ. As there was nothing else to
d-. every member refrained from vot
ing.
The presiding officer declared,
however, that the motion to adjourn
had been lost. This created much
ainusement as nobody had voted.
Lieutenant Governor Tilliman, in
keeping with the humor of the con
dition, declared that as there was a
"tie,'' the Chair would cast a vote in
the negative.
There were a number of parlia
mentary motions to relieve the sit.u
ation, but the presiding officer ruled
them all out of order. Finally the
proper motion was devised and pro.
posed and the Senate adjourned af
ter having an a'iusing parliamentary
experience before it could do so.
i,gee Rabbits Killed ini a Dlay.
Phoenix, Ariz, Jan. 4-A horde
of howling, copper colored, braves, a
dense mass of long eared, gray furred
rabbits, a dozen flights of arrows,
and then an onslaught with heavy
mesquite wood clubs; an acre of
ground covered with heaps of dead
rabbits, a feast on the slain, then the
sleep of the glutton; such in brief is
the conclusion of the annual jack.
rabbit runt of the Pima and Maricopa
allied tribes:
As far back as go the traditions of
the Indian, these rabbit chases have
occure,d. The Indian still disdains to
use niodern weapons in his chase of
the jack, and adhere to the arms
which were used by his fore fathers,
blunt arrows and clubs.
On the Gila River reservatio,.
t wenty miles south of Phoenix, the
greatest round up of rabbits ever
kn9wn within the memory of the
oldest Indian in the Glila Valley took
place last Tuesday. The rabbits this
year have been particularly destrue
tive to the Indian crops, and it was
with the hope of driving the jack
rabbit from the lower valley that the
big round up was hold.
From the Salt River reservation
.came nearly a hundred bucks and
from all parts of the reservation
along the Glila. riot fewer than 400
mm and boys were present for the
chase. Early in the morning the
hunters gathered, and at daybrek the
chase began.
A party of tourists from the east
came from Phoenix to see it, and
were guests of,Chief Hermo.
From a high butte they watched
the round-up and then hurriedly
m)unted and rode in as the circle
narrowed and came together. It was
a motley crowd that herded the jacks.
The Maricopas are men of unusal
size and height, while the Pima are
short and sturdy. On tho puny I ndian
ponies the contrast is marked.
In an hour the circle had been
completed. In a compact formation
and with ear- piercing cries the rainers
drove together the fi ightened rabbits.
So close was the line that few rabbits
attempted to'escape.
In less than two hours the liiie had
closed in on the quarry, and a tumb
ling, panic-stricken lot of rabbits
"loss3d about in the space within it. At
a signal from Chief Antona, a volldy
of arrows flow into the center of the
circle. Volley followed volley, and
then two score small boys went into
action. With clubs alone they com
pleted the slaughter. In less than an
hour the work was completed and
the count began.
More than 1,200 rabbits made up
the bag and the day had broken the
record. Chief Antone explained to the
whites that more than , 1,000 jacks
had never been killed in a day's
hunt before.
In two hours the feast began and
the boiled meat was hurried into the
stomachs of the hungry hunters.
The meat of the young jack is much
like that of the cottontail, the rabbit
of the east, whil i the flavor of the
older meat is unpleasant to the whi es
The Indians, though, make no dis
tinction, and for two days the feast
ing continued.
Part of the meat was dried for
winter use and the ftrs made into
blankets.
Don't Ho Afraid of Work.
Dne thing that keeps young men
down is their fear of work. They
aim to find genteel occupations, so
they dress well, not soil their clothes
and handle things with the tips of
their fingers. They do not like to get
their shoulders under the wheel, and
they prefer to give orders to others
or figure as masters and let some
one else do the drudgeary. There is
no doubt that indolence and laziness
are the chief obstacles to succes.
When we see a boy who has just
secured a position take hold of every
thing with both hands and "jump
right into his work," as if he ment to
succeed, we have confidence that he
will prosper. But if he stands around
and asks questions when told to do
anything; if he tells you that this or
that belongs to some other boy to do,
for it is not his work; if he does not
try to carry out his orders in the cor
rect way; if he wants a thousand ex
planations when asked to run an er
rand and makes his employer think
that he could have done the whole
thing himself, one feels like discharg
mng such a boy on the spot, for he is
convinced that he was not cut out for
success. That boy will be cursed
withimediocrity or will be a failure.
There is no place in this century for
the lazy man, lHe will be pushed to
the wall-Success.
The Canadian editor who pre
pared the annexed market report had
a happy conception of life and a good
tab on things as they are:
Young men unsteady; girls lively
and in demand; coffee considera$iy
mixed; fresh fish activo, and slippery;
wheat grain better than barley; eggs
quiet, but will probably be open in

tobacco very slow and has a down..
ward tendency; moon.y close enough
