The Senator Surprised at the Way
Things Are Run at the Capitol
WASHINGTON, Nov. 1.-Senator Palmer,
while at the capitol yesterday looking in on
the supreme court and other familiar scenes,
ran against Senator Cullom, who took his
colleague to the Senate chamber, where he
some time ago was assigned to a seat on the
democratic side. 1t is pretty good sect
for a newcomer. but it is not on the front
row. Senator Palmer made known his
thanks, but was puzzled to know why such
pains had to be taken in advance
~ thought" he remarked, that everybody
had an equal chance at the beginning Of the
session."
mot at ALL" replied Senator CulIom,
"it's question of time to get good seat.
After term or two a senator may succeed
in edging up pretty we'll to the 'front.' but
not before then. If you know of anybody
who is going to die within year or so you
can put in an application with the sergeant
alarms for his seat when it becomes
vacant"
II shouldn't think sick man would like
that said Senator Palmer
Probably he wouldn't" replied Senator
Cullom, "but it has been done.n
The senator's statement may have been
a trifie exaggerated, yet there have been
cases where requests were fled for a de-
ceased colleagues desk before his funeral
had been held.

LOTTA A BRIDE.
The Actress Reported Married to a
Louisville Social Leader.

The Actress Reported Married to a
Louisville Social Leader.
LOUISVILLE. Nov. LA report was cir
culated Friday afternoon to the effect that
Douglas Sherley had been welded to
Miss Loata Crebtree. known TO the stage as
merely Lolita. Every possible effort was
made to verify the story, but in vain. The
residence of Mr.. Sherley was visited, but his
mother was not at home, while for several
months Mr.. SherIey has been in the east.
The story gained considerable credence on
account Of the great friendship existing be-
tween Mr.. Sherley and the winning little
actress. Mr.. Sherley always entertained
Lolita when she was in the city. and this
summer Mr.. Sherley paid visit to Lolita al
her delightful home. Miss Crabtree is not
acting this season, but is
LIVING WITH HER MOTHER
at Boston. Thomas II. Sherley. brother OF
the supposed groom, stated that he did not
believe the story, but could not deny it
authoritatively. The alleged groom is the
Ward McAlllster Of Louisville, and for
many years has welded social scepter
which none disputed. he Is an au hor of
no mean pretenSes and has an extensive ac-
ouaintance among literary people all over
the world. He is rich and hand
some man of about 40 years Of age
Notwithstanding his popularity il
society he has long been considered a con.
firmed bachelor, and matchmaking mann
mas and scheming daughters have made
siege to his heart and fortune in vain. His
house is one of the handsomest in Louis
vile. and the uuaintness OF its architecture
and furnishings makes it one of the show
places Of Louisville Although the rumor
is not generally believed here, the story
gained wide circulation and caused a sensa-
ton in the upper ten
