man from the rural district called at the
clothing house of ]. A. Mckenzie last night, and
bought the first open-back shirt he had ever
seen.
This morning he called again at the store

We told him he had his close on the wrong

AN AFFECTING SCENE.

Senator Hoar Unwittinsly Recalls a Painful
Memory to Senator Edmunds.
Washington Special to Courier-Journal.
An affecting scene occurred in the Senate
late this afternoon. Senator Hoar was dis
cussing the Presidential succession bill. He
was confning his attention to objections
which Senator Edmunds had raised. In the
course Of his remarks he said that it seemed
to him that Mr. Edmunds was rather late in
thrusting his objections forward, in view of
the fact that the bill had been discussed at
at the extra session of the Senate in 1881.
Senator Edmunds arose, and in very
choked voice with emotion said: 1.-THE Sena-
tor knows l was not present at the extra ses-
sion." The Senator tried to steady his voice
so as to proceed. For fully half minute he
stood in. his place and struggled to con-
troll his feeling. A deep silence pervaded
the Senate Chamber All eyes were turned
toward the white bearded leader of the Re-
publican side, and wondered as to the cause
of his excessive emotion. The Senator, find
ing he could not control his voice, sank 10
his seat and gave way to his grief.
On motion OF Senator ingalls,, the Senate
at once adjourned. Senator Edmunds left
the Senate chamber Immediately, while Sem
ator Hoar rushed around among the senators
protesting that he had no intention whatever
of calling up the most sorrowful period of
Senator Edmunds's life During the extra
session of which Senator Hoar spoke, Mr..
Edmunds spent most of his time at the bed
side of his favorite daughter. This daugh-
ter, of whom Mr. Edmunds entertained
love almost akin to idoiatry, died just about
