sets members vending their way in
groups over TO the senate wing of the cap
itol about lunch time. That queer under
tow which keeps the two houses so far
separate, though they sit within a stone :
throw of each other, also generally makes
the members patrOnize their own restaur
ants.
On inquiry it turned out that the Massa-
Chusetts men went over TO the other end
to get some baked beans, which Senator
Frye's protege, Landlord Page, serves in
regular New England style Those over
AT the house are weak in their color and
baked in a mass, while Page has knack
of putting his beans upon the table with
the real Yankee red tint and each bean
perfect in its form. This is what catches
the New EHglanders, who all potronlze
Pages bean-pot during the week. But
he tells me that he has made no money
since he came to Washington, and on the
contrary has actually lost some. He says
