There was another ebort seesion of the senate this morning. Routine businees continues, with bnt few measures coming up for final passage. The Cottage Grove charter bill has passed the senate, as did also the bill authorizing the trusteed of the Jefferson institute to transfer property.' The bill repealing the state fair appro priation was referred to the house com mittee on ways and means. A measure reducing the salary of the district attorney of the Third district promises to cause a lively discussion, when it comes up for final passage. The assembly will attend the Work men's memorial services tonight at the MethodiBt church, having received a epecial invitation. It is very likely the senate will defeit the bill adding two judges to the su preme court. The court commission? will, however, receive moie favorable consideration. Notice to l'arents and Uuardlans.
