The List day's mmwIoo of the Wyoming legbtla- turo rloKodnhb morning at 6 o'clock after an exciting all night seseion. A big fight was tua'le on the question of excluding the bible from the public schools. The fight against reading the bible in the schools was led by Representative Brown, who professes bhuddism. He carried the question in the house, but in the senate nearly all the preachers of the city lobbied so effectively that the bill was killed. Toe bill making a legislative appor- u-mment was almost equally divided In its support and opposition. Lobbying for tad against it went on until 4 o'clock this morning, when its sup porters, who had the speaker with them, thought they could carry it The speaker ruled the bill to be on its final passage. The opposition claimed it had nc been read a second time and coma not be put on final passage ex ccpt by suspension of the rules, requir ing a two-thirds majority. A dozen members were on their feet at once. The speaker called upon the tergeant- atrartns to preserve order, but no one paid any attention to him. A call was made for a reading of the endorsements on we out. wnen tne cierij read one which was "read second time,' the up roar was renewed and members jumped on their desks and shouted that the en dorseaent was false. Representative Baker, who led the opposition to the bill, rushed to the desk of the speaker, snatched the bill from his hand and rushed with it about the hall, showing the members that the endorsement "read second t W had been iater llneated and was newly -written, the ink being fresher than the endorse- ments following it Adjourneed sine die.

Ex Lieutenant Governor afeikiejofea on bring Interviewed by the Bee correspondent said: "It is the eloeest place I ever sot into la mj life, and the experience was anything- but arreeable. I was eeruin I was rl-ht and was determined to stand tny frauDd, bat any mistake would bavs been fatal. I got wind that tbey intended to exclude me from the bulldinf yesterday moraine and prepared for thera. Tbey bad a warrant for me at tbe front door, bat ( went aro'ind, led by some Intuition, to tbe back door, and directed W. A. Kelly, O. B Sedgwick, Jesse Moore and Grant Enaig-a. my four trusty sergeants, to moet me. Tbey were promptly on band. With my eoat collar drawn up I walked leisurely along with my ruardi to tbe door of the bouse, knocked lightly with my pencil, the door opened end in we went, without any one knowing, who we were. At the entrapoe to the speaker's desk there were two trusty guards who disputed my passage, but I said to myeelf, "I don't need that chair. I will jost stay here in the elerk's chair.' I swore In my deputies and we sat down. Pretty soon a sergeant eame around and said: I guess I have a warrant for your ar rest.' ; All right,' says 1. net me see it.' I toek it and raw it was signed by tbe speaker, so I placed it In my pocket. Pretty loon bo said. I guest we will put yeu out.' Hold on.' said L 'Where Is your author ity t I have your warrant, sad 1st me see you get it Without tbe warrant you have no au thority, to touch me If you dare.' Re thought a moment, and seemed to take the same vkw of the, ?.n4 ws had a pleas ant time after that. - When th" speaker earns be seemed sur prised, but ! greeted blm cordially ana we soon were chatting together . Bad tbey been smart enough to get out a civil warrant for malfeasance In office tbey eould have made it very interesting for me. In tbe afternoon I was denied admission and threatened to eall upon the governor, but the speaker thought better of it and let me In. O well,' said Tom Majors, who was pres ent, 'your experience and tbe result shows tbs power of mind over mere matter.' " The above is clipped from the Bee of January 10, and Is as near tbe truth as a man like Meiklejohn can tell the truth. I had the warrant in the house and was disposing of what few men I had, and gave the order to keep everybody out and admit no one without calling me. But by deception or bribery te and bis "trusty" mob were admitted. LOCAL BREVITIES. J. II. McMurtry, real estate and loans, abstract ami notary.

Washington, Jan. 13 The com missioner of Internal revenue says the receipts during the quarter year just closed were much greater than that in any other year and he does not antici pate an appreciable lessening of Inter nal receipts In the future notwithstand ing the McKinley tariff law makes a a- heavy cut in the tobacco tax and the law will entirely abolish the special ' wholesale and retail taxes for dealers after May 1 next The Increase of du ties upon Sumatra wrappers and for eign made cigars, it Is believed by the commissioner, will not materially re duce the receipts from imports. There will be of course a material reduction of internat revenue by the abolition of the special taxes, but the Increase upon , Imported cigars has already increased the domestic manufacture and from that direction It is believed the reduc tions by the abolition of the special taxes will be overcome.
