tana Senator Sanders is the oniy
statesman we have who wears . watch
chain nix or eight fset long. running
from tho bottom Of his waistoo&t two or
three times around his neck.
Mr.. Sanders chain Is very long and
very heavy, and some of his brother SEN
ators have . boyish way Of playing with
it when its owner sits down beside them
for a chat. Senator Payne. notwith-
standing his advanced years, is addicted
70 quiet, good natured pranks, and on
this occasion went up to Sanders, seized
the gold chain and drew it 80 tightly
about the neck Of tho Moutanastatesman
that the latter was in imminent danger
Of choking. His neckrie was sadly dis
arranged, too. and his head pulled over
backward in a comicslly helpless man.
ner. Altar the prankish octogenarian
had amused himself 10 his hearts con-
tent he let go the moose and quickly hid
himself behind . cloak room door, while
the other senators enjoyed good laugh
At Sanders expense.

Hawaiian islands. He is to consult
Queen Liliokalani and Colonel MacFar-
lane about the sculpture of statue of
