Body Votes Non-Concurrence In Unfavorable Report of Committee. (By The Springfield Correspondent Of The Intelligencer) Springfield, March 28--The prospect of passage of the Vaughan bill changing the number of terms of the circuit court in Bond County, deemed slight Wednesday night 'because of unfavorable committee action, took a complete change of face subsequently when the House voted overwhelmingly to non-coneur in the committee recommendation. This places the bill in the position of having the virtual approval of the House, and almost insures its passage in the lower chamber. The first step in the committee tangle on the measure was taken last week, when the committee on Judicial -Department and Practice voted to refer the proposal back to the House favorably On the request of Representative Vaughan, bills author, however, it was held In committee because the opposition had asked that they be given a hearing. The rehearing was held late Wed- day afternoon, and by a ballot of 9 to 8 it was voted to ipport the bill out with a recommendation that it "do not pass." In inot cases this piocedure results In the unofficial killing of the bill.

When the committee report was read Thursday morning Representative Vaughan demanded that the report of the committee be non-concurred in. He was strongly supported by Re- pi ebentative Fekete of East St. Louis, who pointed out that aside from Bond, only the large counties of Madison and St. Clair have three terms of the court in the Third circuit Inasmuch as some people in Bond County had expressed a desire to return to the two terms which they enjoyed prior to 1913, and as the bill would affect no county save Bond, he seconded the motion to non-concur and urged its adoption. A motion from the Democratic side of the House that this motion lie on the table was defeated, and the Vaughan motion was then decided by a rising vote.

It was earned by a large majority. The bill is thus placed in a very strong position, since it has now secured the support of a large following, and it will be Very surprising it Its Is defeated in the House. The personnel of the committee that will visit Hardla to determine the advisability of erecting a bridge there was named Thursday. Representatives Petrl of Belleville, and 0'- Grady, Matt Franz, Overland, and S. B.

Turner, all of Chicago, will make up the body. No date has been assigned, but It is practically certain that the trip will be taken afttsi next week's session of the assembly. The Senate Appropriations committee on Thursday gave out the names of the committee members who will visit the state institutions during the next few weeks for the purpose of Inspecting them. Senator Flags was made chairman of the body that will visit lie Anna State Hospital. The committee that will inspect the Alton State Hospital will be headed by Senator Searcy of Springfield.

Chairman Curran of the Appropriations committee, which has been considering tlie granting of $400,000 for the erection of a bridge at Har- ilin over the Illinois river, yesterday named several of the members of a sub-committee that is to visit the spot and report upon the condition that exists there Representative O'Grady of Chicago, and Repiesentative Ed P. Petn ol Belleville are the two members named The others will appointed today, and while no date has been set tor the trip to Hardin, it will probablv be made on Thursday or Fuday of next week The most important business tiansacted In the House yesterday was the smashing of the women's i service bills by amending them so as to make them practically worthless. The measures would admit women to Jury service along with men. The amendments adopted after a long fight provide that any women desiring to be excused must be dismissed by the court and no reason for their request demanded; that counsel for either side may reject any or all women Jurors without giving any other reason than that they are women; and finally that the whole proposition must be submitted to a referendum and a majority of all votes cast will be necessary for its approval. The vote for and against these amendments provided a reasonably accurate barometer of the Representatives' stand on the subject of jury service for women.

According to this criterion Representatives Vaughan and Martin favor women jurors, as they voted that the amendments be tabled, wfiile Representative Malloy's ballot was in favor of the adoption of the changes in the bills. BROTHER'S DEATH CALLS REV. TUCKER TO CHICAGO Rev. and Mrs. James G.

Gerling. Communicated Editor the Intelligencer: As a member of the Barber's Union for the past twenty-two, years, it is hardly possible that a protest would come from me against the Increase of shaves. But It is unwarranted and only works a hardship on the smaller shop barbers of this city, those who are now barely getting by--with a limited number of customers. Six o'clock closing was a severe blow to shows, away from the court square, but the new rate for shaves will completely annihilate the outlying smaller shops. Unless the present price of shaves is maintained I will start a shop downtown and charge the regular price, which will be more in keeping with common sense and the purse of present turbulent times.

SOUTHSIDE BABBER. W. W. Warnock Returns From Convention In St. Louis.

CLOTHES A nation-wide movement to increase the Interest of men in their appearance, to impress upon them the importance their appearance has in their business and social life was reported by W. W.

Warnock today. "Already a good deal of work has been done along that line. For instance, practically every motion picture theatre in the country is going to show a news reels of the correct styles. Men are showing a good deal of interest in their dress. Most'of the newspaper of the country are beginning to devote space in their news columns to men's apparel, to the new ideas in dress, and this is an evidence of the fact that men are starting to show something of the same interest in their appearance that women show in theiiB.

"We learned that the great stores of tho country are developing the ensemble idea in displaying and in selling men's apparel, because men are showing that they want to wear the right things, that they want the shirt, the necktie, the hose, the handkerchief and the hat to be in harmony with each other and with the suit." There were daily entertainment features for the ladies who attended the Convention with their husbands, the crowniug entertainment feature being a dinner dance at the Chase Hotel on Thursday night, given by the. St. Louis market. There were Clothing Merchants in attendance from every State In the Union but two- BROS.
