Murphy Provides That Any Person Violating This Act Will Pay From *10 to «MK Springfield.--The first freak wom­ an's dress bill appeared in the lower house as a compliment to the host of woman lobbyists who thronged the state capitol. It is aimed at the hob­ ble and harem skirt by Representative Edward J. Murphy of Chicago and is the only bill which the Bridgeport district statesman ever has intro­ duced. The substance of the meas­ ure is: "It shall be ualawfal for any female to appear upon any public street or thoroughfare or in any public place or building wearing what is commonly known as a 'hobble skirt" measuring not less than one and one-half yards, nor more than three yards, in circum­ ference at the bottom thereof. No fe­ male shall appear in any public place or in any street or thoroughfare in a garb such as what is known as a 'harem skirt.' "Any person violating this act shall be fined not less than $10 nor more than $50 for each and every offense, and each appearance upon any public street or thoroughfare or in any pub­ lic place Rh«n constitute & separate and distinct offense." The bill caused roars of laughter and nearly broke up the house session when its title was read by Clerk Mc- Cann. Speaker Adkins referred it to the committee on miscellaneous sub­ jects. "We'll call exhioits before the com mittee to demonstrate the skirts, said Representative Marcy, the chair­ man. The Madison anti-divorce fraud bill passed the senate by a unanimous vote. It provides that if a judge be­ lieves there is collusion or fraud in a divorce case he is to compel the state's attorney to direct proceedings on the part of the defense. Attorneys say that It is unconstitu­ tional in that it attempts to compel a defendant to testify against himself In a criminal prosecution. The senate also passed Senator Mc- Kecz-ie's two bills to dispense with primaries at special elections of legis­ lators, senatorial committeemen, state, congressional, county, city, municipal court and other judicial officers, the state board of equalization, appellate court clerks, sanitary district trus­ tees and precinct and state central committee men. The house Judiciary committee took up the libel bill introduced by Repre­ sentative Lee O'Neil Browne and sup­ ported by. Representative Hiram T. Gilbert for discussion. After It had been generously amended by Repre­ sentative Gilbert the bill was voted out with the recommendation that It pass. Leaders of both sides declare that there is small probability of its succeeding. The bill to establish the Oklahoma system of bank guarantees in Illinois was reported out of the house com­ mittee on banks and banking with the unanimous recommendation that it do not pass. Opposite courses are being taken by the senate and house on the pro­ posed constitutional amendments. The house committee on revenue acted favcyably on the resolution for a rev­ enue amendment, while the Hay sen­ ate committee sent out the initiative •nd referendum aw6Suuiciit after Charles E. Merriam, mayoralty candi­ date in Chicago, had taken up the cudgel single-handed in its behalf. As only one article can be amended at a time, the two houses so far as committee action goes, are at logger­ heads, and at present it is a draw be-' tween the revenue men and the Peoria committed of seven. The divergency led assembly lead­ ers to hazard a belief that it strength­ ens the proposal to call a constitu­ tional convention. They argue that the two houses may perhaps find a common ground in the convention plan. As to what will happen to the pro­ posed amendments, every one is at sea. Up to the present there"" has been no roll call in the house that has indicated who Is In control of the house. Everybody is wondering what is the strength of the various factions this time and how they are going to line up. The test of strength vote, as a matter of fact, is engrossing in­ attention of all the leaders just now SV»r eight weeks the various ele­ ments have strengthened their forces, while work apparently has lagged. Now that the session is getting do^'u Centralia Is Favored. Spirited bidding for the 1912 an­ nual meeting of the Illinois Farmers' Institute will develop, it is thought, when the institute officers and mem­ bers meet in the city of Springfield in their annual session. The new in­ stitute will take up Its work and vl£ orous pleas tor the next meeting, it is understood, will be entertained from Centralia, Canton, Lincoln, Paris and other cities and towns in southern Illinois. Centralia bas best accommo­ dations. to thtf point whar* some of the fetg tbaasures soon will come tip on the floor, they are redoubling their ef­ forts to line up the lawisakers. A feminine lobby beaded by Mrs. Raymond Robins of Chicago appeared in behalf of the amendments to the ten-hour law for workwomen at a pub­ lic hearing before the senate commit­ tee on mines and mining and delivered, arguments for the measure. No action was taken by the committee, the prot>- abillty being that another hearing will be held next week. ID a series of fire-minute speeches they discussed the hours of laundry women, telephone operators, store clerks and others, while crowds, of the woman suffrage lobby listened with interest. Speeches against the bill were made by H. A. Crofts, representing the pa­ per box manufacturers, and P. A. Scho- enfeld of the Retail Merchants' associ­ ation outside the loop of Chicago. Grain Men Fight Agreements. War against "bucket shop" buying and selling and the Canadian reci­ procity treaty was declared by the Illinois Farmers' and Grain Dealers association at the^r session at Spring­ field and an alliance made with the cause of women'# suffrage. Almost to a man the delegates In convention at Arion mall voted to en­ courage the passing of the woman's suffrage bill when more than fifty of the suffragists appeared at the hall in a body and plead with the farmer grain dealers for their support in the movment. Short talks In behalf of the bill which is now pending in the state legislature were made by Mrs. McCullough and Miss Todd and at the conclusion of their addresses they re­ ceived great applause from the dele- g&tes. Ex-President Thomas Lamb of Bement then made a motion that the association adopt resolutions indors­ ing the b«!! and wbfn a rising vote was called for by the president a great demonstration followed, every man in the hall rising and cheering lustily. The members of the suffrag­ ists party left the hall highly pleased as they consider the approval of dele­ gates representing more than 25,000 voters of the state, a notable gain in their fight for votes. A bill already drafted and read be­ fore the delegates, if passed by the legislature, makes bucket shop buy­ ing a misdemeanor and margipal Bell­ ing a felony. Many members ̂ -**1 the association have experienced re­ verses through •he operation of man­ agers of elevators in grain specula­ tion and the bill is intended to be a protection to the members of the as­ sociation. ' STATE •*' HAPPENINGS Child Actor Brings a Fine. A midnight trial of a local theatri­ cal manager and of the head of a Japanese acrobatic troupe for allow­ ing a Japanese infant to appear on the stage was the outcome of the verbal duel between Senator Potter femd Factory Inspector Davies in the hearing over the "child labor" bill. After the tilt Davies ordered an In­ vestigation of the charges made by Potter. The result was that the the­ ater manager and the head of the troupe were arrested by Inspector Van N«n. Urges Law for 8ane Fourth. The demon tetanus will not caper in the dance of death next Fourth of July, if one little word in the cities and villages act can be changed. If the word "prohibit" can be substituted for the word "regulate" in one section of the act the sane Fourth will be­ come a realty In every Illinois munici­ pality Such is the contention of Frank Fairfield of the Chicago Sane Fourth association, who appeared be­ fore the house committee on munici­ pal corporations to urge the passage of house bill 324. "In the last seven years," said Mr Fairfield. "34,000 casualties have oc­ curred in the United States by reason of Fourth of July celebrations. The land has been strewn with dead and Injured. Dynamite and firecrackers and the deadly toy pistol have reaped a harvest of deaths. Chicago has had from 12 to 16 deaths and from 148 to 260 casualties each year. Last year the number was reduced to one death and forty casualties." Action on the bill was postponed. Replying to Representative O'Rourke's query, Mr. Fairfield told the commit­ tee he had no connections with any insurance company. Address by Champ Clark. \ The teachers of Springfield have been invited to sttsnd the tweoly- second annual meeting of the Central Illinois Teachers' association, which will be held, at Peoria this month. A special drawing card for the meeting will be an address by Champ Clark on "The United States of America in the Twentieth Century."

S. Hall of Northwestern university, and Prof. W. C. Bagley, director of the school of education, University of Illinois. Needs $1,000,000 for Prison. The appropriation which is expect­ ed to be made for the new penitentiary at Joliet will have to be at least a million dollars, is the statement made by Congressman Ira C. Copley. The farmers holding desirable land for the site, it is rumored, are intend­ ing to "hold up" the state and the $500,000 already appropriated will have to be expended for land alone. At least a million, says the congress­ man will be necessary to build the new prison according' to present plans. New Illinois Corporations.

Danville.--Judge Kimbrough has de­ cided that - the indictment against Fred Garner, charging him with the murder of Mrs. Elsie <3ochran, near this city last October, is good, and that he must stand trial.

DQCTGRS LEARN TO CHARGE Western Spirit of Commercialism Off­ sets OM Japanese Proverb and the Gift Cuetom. Tokio.--The arrival of western civ­ ilization in Japan aeems to have in­ stilled a spirit of commercialism even among physicians, who in old Japan were never known to possess this in­ stinct. The elders say that this it detrimental, particularly so to the poo£> people. The old school of physi­ cians still adhere to ancestral meth­ ods. These methods do not permit a physician to accept money from poor persons, even if they offer to ppy A Japanese proverb has it: #"Wbee tbe twins, poverty and sick­ ness, enter the home of the poor, the physician who accepts money from there is worse than a thief, even though tbe money be freely offered." No physician of the old school in Japan would think of sending a bill, even to a rich patient. -The physician makes his visits and on the last visit the recovered patient hands the physi­ cian what is due Mm. This is offered more aa a gift of friendship thai^ as payment. The physician accept it In the same spirit. / Southwestern Genius Invents a Device by Which It May Now Be Conserved. Kansas City, Mo.--Always, Just when the world seems about to breathe Its last gasp, someone comes along with an Idea designed to give the poor old creature a new lease on life. This has been tgie In many in­ stances--If the theories of the inven­ tors be accepted. Say in the case of the porous plaster, the gin rickey, the Boston trot, the fried oyster and the spit ball. Now a southwestern genius ha9 once more revived our hopes of a continued existence by inventing a de­ vice to measure and store the power heretofore wasted in the mastication of chewing gum. Jaw units are the basis of computation. They are reg­ istered by a mechanism somewhat like that which records temperatures, height and weather conditions for bal- loonists. It is very small and is con­ cealed at the point where the wire comes in contact with the band around the neck as shown in the illustration. A somewhat similar arrangement on the other side of the lady's neck, and which would prove worthy of exam­ ination if she only would tucn around, stores the power. This miniature storage battery is detachable. When a battery is filled it can be taken off and put in the pocket and another connected with the machine. The power may thus be utilized for winding tbe clock, put- Exhor^ing the Ducka.
