Mr.. Kilgore, OF Texas, whose proud
distinction is that he has feet, objects to
this country using its war ships and
such other vessels as may be necessary
to carry to Russia donations OF food to
the starving people OF that country.
There was no delay in tho senate, and
tits to the credit of the house that but
one voice in that body was raised
against this act OF humanity.
Unfortunately one voice was enough
toput the resolution where it will have
to take its course. In addition to feet,
Kilgore now has the proud distinction
OF being the meanest man in America.

They Fooled the August Senator.

Not even the gravest, most venerable
of senators is proof against the wiles Of
April Fools Day. The senate pages as
a rule manage to have a pretty good
time in life, but play their pranks far
enough from the sacred precincts of the
higher branch to escape unpleasant rep
rimands. On April FOOLS Day they
started in to test the financial predilec-
tions of the senate. A line was baited
with fat and juicy looking wallet that
lay temptingly in the corridor, just
where the senators turned the corner.
Along came tall John Sherman. His
eyes bit on the wallet. Probably the
senior senator and great fnancier had
never before found a pOcketbook lying
so carelessly. about in his path: He
swooped down upon it. His fingers were
rapidly closing over it, but they only
shut up like a clenched fist, while the
pocketbook, like an elusive dream,
glided out of sight as if it had wings.
A whisper fell on Sherman's ear, april
Fool" clatter of scurrying boys feet
| accom- panied it. Sherman went in to
complain to the venerable doorkeeper,
who has since been trying in vain tc
bring the jolly young pages into proper
| frame of repentance. - Kate Fields
