LINCOLN , larch 16.-Special.--With ( ) but
seven da's of its legal existence yet remain-
Ing and wIth nearly 200 bIlls on general file
and more stl In the committee roomsthe senate -
ate has at last reached the point In Its rnp-
hl ) ' wasting life where a sifting committee
seems to bo absolntely necessary to prevent
confusion nml even demoralization. An at-
tempt was made last Friday to secure the IP-
"ointment of a sifting committee , but the ob-
Jeclon oC MclCeeby and other leading relJb-
Icans was strong enough to lay the mater
over for a week. Wednesday night the stand-
lug committee on rules met at the Lincoln
hotel and decided to provide for a sifting
committee In the standing rules of the scn-
ate. The rnle was agreed Illn lat night , ns
stated 1 In The lice this mornIng , and was today .
day adoptel. , I Provides as follows :
Rule t3. A sitting committee of nIne
members shall be . appointed by the prest-
lelt , whoRe lInt ) I shall he to have charge
of the bills on general flue anti report such
bills as are deemed meat Importnnt for
consideration : und bils HO ported and
recolulnded ClInt ! take precedelce II COI-
Rldernton of bils now before the senate ,
except the general und salary appropriation
bhlI : antI claim bills , which shall be subject -
ject to special order nt any time.
The rule as adopted gives the sifting committee -
mittee almost absolute power of life or death I
over every bi on general flue. Its authority
Is practically autocratic and its diction supreme -
preme ns long as It lies the vote or seventeen
senators behind It.
There will be al Immpnse amount or wcrlc
for the couiniittee. I wi be Impossible to
consIder In committee or the whole more
than twenty or thirty bills. There arc nearly
ten times that number , with authors anxious
for their fate Among the bills that are
tolerably fure or running the gauntlet are
the beet sugar bis , the Lincoln charter , the
blaulIt ballot hills , Telts good roads bill
and the Omaha chartpl The rate of the oleo-
margarine bill Is still In doubt Among the long
list of bIlls almost certain to be killed by the
sifting committee are the "ant-monollly"
bills . some thirty or forty In number , all the
hls cutting ( heWn the rees of clerIcs of the
district courts , the county commissioner bills ,
al of the miscelaneous bills covering such
subjects as "decedents estates " "Code of
Civil Procedure , " etc.
WATSON WINS DY ONE.
The final vote on Watn's bill to abolish
the death penalty In Nebraska came durIng
the forenoon and the measure was given the
required constitutional sanction of seventeen
votes and ( no more. The opponents of the
bill had confidently expected to defe.lt the
hilt at the last moment. They had made a
careful canvass of the senate several tImes
ever and their most careful estimates showed
cstmates
but sixteen votes In favor of the bill. Con-
sequenty they were just a little surprised
nt the vote this forenoon. When the vote
was called the result showed eighteen senators -
ators In favor or the bl But 11el'e were
several changes. Before the result had
ben announced Campbell and Lelir . who had
voted tn the affirmative . changed their votes
to the negative . thus leavIng but sixteen
votes In favor of the bill . one short of a bare
majority. Jut when the opponents of the
bill had began to think of congratulating ;
themselves , Jefries , who had originally voted
agaInst the bill. swung over to the opposite
side and saved the bill. I had been be-
tiered all along that tathbun was against
the bill and his support of the measure was
a surprlso. The pponets of the bill had
false conldenty' relied upon the tstance of I
Saunders , and his vote was also n disagreeable - :
able surprise. The vote by which the bill
finally passed was as follows :
. Yeas- -
Akers. hitchcock , htathbun .
llauer JelTries , Saunde .
Czali' . Llntlsay Sprecher
Crawrord , McKeety . Stewart .
Crs3 , McKesson " 'ltI1-1.

Nays-
iiiact. Hahn. Sloan
Uressler . Holbrook ' Steufer.
111.lw"l. . Mitchell . Tel'tt.
Campbell , LhT. WrIglt-14.
Dale , Noyes .
The bill not only abolishes capital punlsh-
mont , but adds to the present law two pro-
visions which recite that "It In1 person shall
aid , abet or procure any other person to commit -
mit any felony every person so offending
shiahl . upon conviction thereof , be unprlsoned
In the state penlenlary for any time be-
twe'n the respective perIods for which the
prIncipal offenders could be ImprIsoned for
the principal offense ; or , I such principal
offender would on conviction be Imprisoned
for life , then such alder , abettor or procurer
Ehnl bs Imprisoned for life , the Bare as the
prlncical offender would be "
The folowing provision Is also added :
U any person shall purposely und of deliberate -
liberate und iltemeditated mllce , O' tn the
perpetraton 01 nHempt to perpetrate any
rare ai'14011 . robber 0' burglary , or by administering -
ministering 110lson , or causing the same to
be done , kilt another ; 01' If any person ly
wilful and corrupt perjury , or by suborna-
ton ( uf the same , hll Ilurposely procure

Hood's Sarsaparilla I.
The statements in the testimonial below

of Mr. Oeo. A. Zirkle , school teacher , at
Mt. Ioreb , Tcnn , very well known
throughout lie county , where ho was
born ant has always lived. I Illustrates
the wonderful at Hood's

ria over nl dlsense or the blood. Read it :
I I beleve in Hood's Sarsaparlila. I wi
tel you why. I have suffered from inherited -
herited scrofula tram childhood , When 37
years of age , my eye became
Strangely Affected.
I could not read after sunset , and when I
would close my eyes I could not open
them ; but on "hlchever Bldo lay , on that
side I could open my eye. This condition
continued about two years , and was sac-
cceded by an intolerable itching all over
my body and limbs. I hRd to have } my
little boys take shoe brushes and scratch
me. I was dreadrnl. I continued n
month and was followed immedlately by n
tumor in thc rIght side or my neck as large
a a small egg. I took physicians' prescriptions -
scriptions tIll I lost hope. In the mean-
time the tumor changed its place to the

till about seven months ago I tried everything -

so weak that 1 could scarcely walk and my
mind was soconfusel that I could scarcely
attend to my business ( school teaching ) .
I was utterly discouraged. And now my

Hood's Srsaparlan IUD hess than a year
ago , and took flvobottles . When I began
I had no faith in it. In 3 months both

lIght threw its lght Into the yards and It
was found that a switch engIne and two
cabooses were standing on the maIn line.
Engineer Pat Daily reversed the engine and
applied the air bralles. This no doubt
prevented 1 disastrous wreck. The traIn
stopped so suddenly that the passengers were
thrown from their seats Then there was
a rush from the cars.

a rate of speed that she seemed to pitch the
smaler engine clear off the track and carry
It along . Far to the front of ODe of the
