FIRE AHD LIGHTNING. Since the Sta' Alliance several have asked how to proceed to organize a Mutual Fire Company. At this season of tha year when farm era are not so busy a company could bo easily organized after the following manner: If two or three men would join in making a call for a mooting of two or more men from each precinct, in the county or in spirsely settled counties two or more counties could be convened at some central point at which time and placj those present should agree upon previously prepared articles' of incorporation, each one sign them and set opposite hU name tha amount he would Insure. Then elect officers. When you have 20 names and $20,000 subscribed you could Incorporate, but I would advise that no company Incorporate before they $10,000, and in counties where you will have some large buildings to in sure I would advise that your articles provide that the insurant shall not take effect until there are $75,000 or $100,000 written. At the time of. meeting it would be advisable to get as many to canvass their respective neighborhoods as pos sible and as so in as you can get your applications printed send them out and urge immediate work for you will have no time to loio to get ready for light ning season. v . When you have theN amount of the insurance written provided for in your by-laws, you should forward to the state auditor the articles of incorpora tion and by-laws signed by at least twenty men. with at least $20,000 worth of property insured and a duplicate of the same with $10. The auditor will return tho copy to your secretary whose -duty It Is to put it on file ..math tr-,flfv days of the session, had TWatW? 91 Jn? declared ' Topeka, Kan., Jan. 11.

This arrangement enables the leaders of the two Bidea to handle their resnee- tive forces more successfully. At 1:25 o'clock Secretary of State Os borne appeared at the speaker's stand and announced that the law provided that he should lay before tho house a list of members as he found it in the secretary of state's office. Ueortre L. Douglass interrnttel with the statement . that the secretary should only lay the list before the house and should not preside. He said that, for one, he would not consent for Osborne to preside, and other members agreed with him. Mr. Dunsmore. the PoDulist candi date for speaker said that there was no precedent to be found in the state to settle questions that will be presented in this organization.

Mr. Dunsmore directing his forces to ignore the Republican organ ization. Mr. Semple continued to hold his place by the side of Mr. Cubbison, but seemed to lack the nerve to enact bis part and the management of the Pop ulist forces was left to Mr. Dunsmore. As the roll c:ill proceeded the Repub licans responded ns their names were called, while the Populists kppt up a roar oi protest anu snouted oruers back and forth. Mr. Dunsmore then got his forces together and they proceeded to elect Mr. Ryan temporary speaker, mean while Mr. t'ubbison called for tho members to come forward and be sworn. The Republicans held up their hands and a Topeka lawyer named Thomas IJ. Bain administered the oath. Then the Republican clerk called the roll again and Mr. Douglas was de clared elected speaker. Judge Strong swore Mr. Douglas in and he assumed the chair. TWO HOUSES IS OPF.BATIO.V. Mr. Dunsmore kept his machine in order and soon two houses were in full operation on the same floor. Douglas and Ryan were now side by side put ting motions and everybody was on his feot shouting and yelling. Mr. Troutman, Republican, moved that the sergeant at arms be instructed to clear tlw lobby. This was carried, and on motion Mr. Douglas appointed a committee of five to notify the senate that the house was organized. The fight now was for the possession of thc hall and the leaders started in to test the atavintr Qualities of the two sides. Mr. Cubbison moved that Mr. Rosen thal be sworn in as the member from Haskell county. This was carried and Mr. Rosenthal, who sat in the balconv in thc end of the hall, was asked to 1 come forward and be sworn iu. This was a signal for both sides to begin a fight for him, the Republicans want ing him to stand up and take the oath and the Populists urging him to tako no part in the proceedings. Mr. Jiosenthal was then permitted to say that he had taken the oath before he came to Topeka and that he wanted to confer with his Democratic col leagues. Mr. Dunsmore now surrtrestcd that all hands take a recess for half an hour so that they might talk the situation over, litis was greeted with shouts of No!" and the members, who were all gathered around the speaker's stand, resumed their warlike sport. l'USUING AIIKAD SIDE Br BIDK.
