One Oi a Few Signs Oi Apporaching
Adjoummcni—House Down to

Work at Last

HARTFORD. .iuly 8.——Thc work of
the judiciary committee will close. to-
day. and their final report will be
made to the legislature, which is one
of the few signs of an approaching ad-
journment. Ilurlug the past week or
two the house has shown a disposition
to transact business rather than to
waste time, and the result has been
that they have made good progress
with their calendar. It is understood
that there are now only about 90 mat.-
tcrs to be, acted upon, and with a few
afternoon sessions the house could get
through with many of them in short
order. .

it was learned today that when the.
hill introduced by Senator Helnemanu,
which nbolishee, the state barber coni-
mission. is reported, the report will be
a favorable one, and the work of in-
specting barber shops will be dotlc by
the ideal boards, and the barbérs
themselves will have to pay the cost
of inspection.

At the hearings on this bill. it was
shown that the work of the cannula-
sloil had been inefficient. and that the
results had been far from what was
expected when the present law was
enacted.

Among the bills to be reported fa-
vorably is that doing away with the
present system of voting and intro;
dncing the Australian ballot. The
use of the Australian ballot will do
away with all pastors and ballet ped-
dlers.

cal option, legislative action. immigra.
tion. etc., introduced by men and we-
men who have made special studies of
these topics: Rev. Joel S. Ives, of
Hartford: Mrs. Mary B. Wilson, of
Philadelphia, national superintendent
of work among foreign" speaking peo-
ple. and others. A question box will
follow the discussions both morning
and afternoon. These. exercises will
be interspersed with music and reel
tatlous by competent artists. Thu.
speakers for the evenings will be Mrs.
Cora E. Seberry. of New York. the
,l9th, and Mrs. L. M. N. Stevens and

that large numbers of the membership

will be present to participate in the
discussions and hear. these noted
speakers.
