WAsuISoroN. December 20.-Said an old
member Of the Hous, to-day; "a few
years ago the hall Of the House always con-
tanned ten or dtzsn Senators while Con-
gress was in session. While over in the
Senate you could see fifteen or twenty
Representatives sitting around chatting
with Senators or discussing questions Of
legislation in the cloak rooms. Now all is
changed. 1t is very seldom that the mem.
bers Of one house visit the others. There
seems to be barrier between the two
bodies and little in common exists between
them"
"0n what ground do you account for
this fact 2"
"Monopolies. Monopolies have COTTON
from Congress about all they expect 10 get.
Land grants and subsidies have had their
day. The big railroad corporations and
other monopolistic bodies do not desire
additional legislation. All they want now
Is to prevent legislation detrimental to their
interests. They have given up the House
and now pay attention solely to the Senate,
recognizing that il they can control that
body legislation against their interests
coming from the House will easily be
negatiyed,"

Perhaps the statements Of this gentleman
are somewhat exaggerated, but glance at
at the Senators who have been selected
within the past few years will convince
one that there Is some ground for the
charge. Senator Brown, Of Georgia, is
represented to be worth several millions,
Tabor, the thirty.day Senator Of last year,
Is worth $l0,0O0,000. Hissuccessor, Bowen,
has four filths Of that amount. Warner
Miller, OF New York, the philanthropist ot
the newspapers, has accumulated s. 900, GOO
from his wood pulp paients. Palmer. OF
Michigan, Don Cameron, Of Pennsylvania,
Sawyer, OF Wisconsin, Miller, Of California,
Fair and Jones, Of Nevada, Beck, OF Ken
tucky, and half dozen ethers each re-
ouires elk figures TO demonstrate the
amount OF his dollars. It Is not to be
thought for moment thst any one Of these
gentlemen is the tool ofany monopoly, but
the fact that SO many rich men are getting
into The Senate leads to the impression
that laws savoring Of the Interests OF the
people against the wishes Of corporations
will stand but o poor chance oi running
through the upper house Of Congress.

SARAH sALLIEs.

Sarah took justice into her hands and
sailed forth, armed with 8 stout horse
whip. Her friends, Richepin and Kirbir-
nard, who knew where woman's anger
begirs but not where 1t ends, also jumped
into carriase and followed. Sarah dafted
into her enemy's salon and found herself
face to lace with Colombier. The women
for an instant eyed each other, then like q
tigress Sarah sprang, yociierating murder
Gus epithets, and dashed her adversary
straight across the face. Colombier shrieked
with pain and rage. Johan Soudan burst
into the room 10 separate the women.
At the same moment Richepin
clutched Soudsn by the throat,
Sarah again sprarg at Colombier, who
fled, Sarah darling alter her. The wild
pursuit continued Into one room and out
OF another, and amid broken mirrors,
etsgeres and pictures, Sarah al the time
whipping Marie, who was shYieking with
pain. At last Colombier escaped by the
servants stairway. Bernhardt exhausted,
but enraged, withdrew. In passing through
the front door Sarah showed her horaewhip
10 the concierge, eayiDg: "Marshall Can-
robert gave 1t to me, but l give 1t TO Mile.

Sarah played her role at the theatre Porte
