tention of the chair to that, and the chair had no right tO make such a retort, even if he was supported by the disorderly applause on his side, which he permitted.
 The Speaker-The chair will state that there is no distinction, under the present rules of the house, between the point of mo quorum and mo quorum voting." There is a distinc- tion between those two points and the sugges- tion of mo quorum present." as made under the rules at the last session.
 One of the most amusing scenes ever witnessed in the house was when Mir. Harter, of Ohio, in the course of speech on the silver bill, declared that the sill yer barons had taken the people by the throat and choked them. Illustrating his meaning by seizing Congressman Me Kaig, of Maryland, by the neck and giv- ing him q vigorous shaking. shouts of laughter greeted this performance, and members sitting near by prudently moved out of reach of earnest Mir. liar ter's hands.
 Another funny scene was when Mir. Harter and NIT. Bland, leaders of op- posing forces in the silver fight, pulled out their watches and held them up for inspection. Mr. Hartcrs watch Was gold and Mir. Bland's silver, and the earnest way in which they compared them set the house in a roar
 A few days later there was another exhibition of watches, when in the course of the tariff debate Butler, of Iowa, and Walker, of Massachusetts. pulled ont their thnepieces and held them aloft to illustrate their arguments.
 Last week Speaker Crisp and Mir. Bur rows, of Michigan, engaged in parlia- mentary combat. Mir, Burrows persisted in speaking when the speaker thought he was out of order, and in the end the gentleman from Michigan was compelled to take his seat. But he had his revenge on the speaker by engaging in filibus- tering campaisr which prevented the house doing any business for an entire afternoon.
 In tho senate thes, collOpui1s do not arise very often Senator's are exceed ingly dignifed, scJupulously careful us a rule, not tO walk on each others toes. A few weeks ago a bill to regulate pub lie printing was under discussion, and 'bi NWp udNb JUG lllit Ol tUP senate "AS almost altogether taken up by senators Manderson and Cockrell, who carried on an incossant conversational debate. It was all m good temper, except on one occasion, when Mr. Mandcrson charged Mr. Coclzrell with being common scold, whereat there was q sensation, but Mir. Manderaon instantly softencd his blow by adding that he didn't object to scold- ing so long G5 he had an opportunity to scold back. No blood was shed.
 More earnest and significant was re- cent tilt between Senators Teller and sherman. The former, who is one of the most courageous men in public life, scorod hr' ahhTman raurdly for ct,

 Mir Boutellc--The gentleman asks q question very much like the question that was

 Mir. Boutelle-l will answer your question if you want an answer.
 Mir, Pendleton-lf you want to answer it I am perfectly willing; but am not willing that you shall speak parable
 Mir, Bou.elle-I am inclined to think that you could answer the question tO suit yourself bet ter than ] can. do not care anything about your statement or your question,
 Mr. Pendletou-And l do not care anything about you. Your talk Is simply on your usual style all the time. You undertook to answer me, and then went out of your way to make an unciyil and discourteOus remark.
 Mr. BOutelle-l would like to have the gen gentleman address the chair.
 Mir. Pendleton-You have addressed me.
 Mir. BOutelle-Now, if you want me 10 an- swer a single question:
 Mir. Pendleton-I do not desire you to answer a single question.
 Mir. Boutellc-Then, Mir Chairman, simply suggest that the gentleman had better not pro. pound questions if he does not want them sn- swCrcd
 Mir. Pendleton-lt is question which has en. gagged the attention of the profouudest think CTS Of our times
 Mir. Boutelle--Includine the gentleman from West Virginia.
 Mr. Pendleton- Though it has not engaged yours very deeply. And l think in addition it should engage your attention 10 exercise lit- tie more civility, a little moro courtesy. and to cease to make yourself the only member on this floor from the state of Maine who Is emil nent only for discourtesy, inciyiity and i'll breeding have found that 10 be your cou duct ever since I have been here, and do not desire Co have any further conversation with you or interruptions from you.
 Another scene was when Mir. Hatch, of Missouri, attacked young George Fred Williams, of Massachusetts, and spoke of his ''incomparable egotism," of statesmen who were still in swaddling clothes" etc Mir. Williams attempted to interrupt and shook his fist at Hatch, but the Missourian has great voice, and with it he easily drowned out the words of his antagonist. Hatch capped the climax by offering to trade Williams off for "the sockless statesman from Kansas" proposition to swap New England Democracy for western Farm CTS Alliance men, which caused no end of merriment in the hail. in which Mir. Williams heartily joined.

tempting to shut off debate on the sil- yer resolutions. When he rose to reply "grand old John Sherman" was evident ly much stirred up. Teller had struck fire. Mir. sherman. tall, gaunt, looking more and more like his dead brother Tecumseh as years are added to his score, swung his long arms about and made five minute speech, which for vigor and effectiveness has rarely been equaled in the senate He denied that he was trying to suppress debate on the silver or any other question. He was ready to discuss it now or at any other time. Il make mistakes he declared, "but never run away" And to prove his willingness he threw at the silver leaders a perfect hurricane of hot shot from his well filled magazine, causing more than one observer to say, There's heap of life in the old man yet"
 One of the nuisances of debate in the house is the interruptions. If an orator will permit it other members will take up all his time with questions, some of them pretty hard nuts to crack too. As a rule these interruptions are taken good naturedly, but occasionally a speaker objects somewhat tartly. Wit ness the following colloquy between Pendleton, of West Virginia, and Bou- telle, of Maine:
 Mir. Boutelle-Do you want an answer to that question:
 Mir. Pendlcton- n-I will be very glad to have an answer,

Tb,pr. That Annoy , p,y,r.

The diver, as the reader may imagine. gets many scaros when below. A fifteen foot shark, magnitied by the water and making beeline for one, is sufficient to make the stoutest heart quake, in spite of the assertion that sharks have never been known to attack a man in dress. Neither is the sight of large turtle comforting when one does not know ex .actly what it is, and the coiling of sea snake around ones legs, although it has only ones hands to bite at is, to say the least, unpleasant.-H. P. Whitmarsh in Century.

hurled back and forth. That is what we onlookers in the halls of congress like to see. A tilt on the floor empties the cloakrooms and lobbies and fills the press gallery in twinkling. Every one is eager to see the sparks fly. The present session has been prolific of such scenes. When Speaker Crisp and ex- Speaker Reed met in the parliamentary arena a short time ago a crowd gathered around to enjoy the fray. A vote had been taken on a motion that the house take a recess, and Mir. Enloe made the point of order thatno quorum had voted,
 Mir. Rccd-The gentleman does not make the point of no quorum. Ho makes the point that no quorum has voted.
 The Speaker Under the rules of the house and the present administration of the house, gentlemen are not considered present unless they vote. Applause on the Democratic side.l
 Mir. Rced-That shows, Mir. Speaker, that there has been new system adopted since the last congress. .~
 The Speakcr-That shows that the present occupant of the chair will endeavor to enforce the rules of the house. Applause on the Dem- ocratic side.l
 Mir. Reed-Nevortheless. Mir Speaker, the observation l made Is entirely correct, namely, that the point which the gentleman from Ten nesse made was that no quorum has voted, while the chair announced that the point he made was mo quorum"
 The Speaker-No quorum
 Mir. Reed-Ies, and my observation, not withstanding the rctort of the chair, was en- tirely correct.
 The Speaker Perhaps it is, but it is entirely out of order
 Mir. Reed-It was entirely correct, and there fore the chair had no right to make such a re- mark
 The Speaker-The gentleman may be cor rect, when at the same time he is out of order. Mir. Reed-l was entirely in order when l called the attention of the chair Co the fact.
 The Speaker-Thc chair thinks not.
 NIT. Reed Entirely in order.
 The Speakor-The chair thinks the gentle man is entirely out of order. There was no occasion for any such reply. The point was not made by the gentleman from Maine, but by somebody else-the point of ho quorum. The chair entertained the point, whercupOn the gentleman from Maine made the sugges- ton he has made.
 Mir. Reed-l said to the chair that the gen. tleman made the point that no quorum had voted, and that the chair stated it to be the point of mo quorum" which Is a different proposition; and had the right to call the at-

Occasionally the best of friends get into spats in the heat of debate. Hen derson, of Iowa, and Savers, of Texas, are both good fighters, members of the same committee and warm friends. One day they had dispute about question of fact. In parliamentary language, the lie was all but passed. They clinched their fists and looked savagely at each other, Instantly there was great confusion in the hall, and while the speaker was pounding his desk to splfnters in an effort to restore order, the cOmbatants came to their senses, smiled at each other and the war cloud Was gone.
