Senators at PRAYER.

The United States senate at PRAYER
presents study for the curious who
love to inquire into the peculiarities,
whimsicalties and oddities of the great.
Promptly when the clock indicates the
hour of noon the vice president and the
chaplain enter the senate; the latter
ascends to the stand OF the presiding
officer, standing below him, gives one
rap with the gavel, and then the prayer
proceeds with good deal of suggestion
of lip service. Mr.. Morton is an emil
nently espectable-looking man. 1t
would be an impossiblity for him to
commit an act of indecOrum, says the
Courier journal. He would make an
admirable lord mayor of London. His
attitude is that OF devotion. without any
degree of humility. OF the senators.
MessrS. Palmer, HawIey, Paddock and
Gibson, of Louisiana, throw all the
devotion and humility into the service
that the law allows.
One continually expects to hear an
unctuous amen from each of them at
any moment during the services. Saw
yer, Hoar, Morrill,, Sherman, Frye, ALI
son, Ransom, Vest, Vance, Cameron
and Butler are careless and uncOn-
cerned and somewhat bored. Washburn
keeps his seat and yawnS viSlbly, il not
audibly, two or three times before the
final amen; Brice also keeps his seat,
but bends his head on his hand. Meth
odist probation fashion. Stanford, too,
keeps his seat for the sufficient reason
that he is very weak in his pins, he hav-
ing No. legs and No. IL trunk. His
cock is the most bored man in tho senate
while the devotional exercises are under
way. He chances around the chamber,
scans the galleries and seems to be
completely exhausted. With an i'm
mense stomach for biscuit. a big head
for thought and a powerful frame for
action, Hiscock was born lazy and
has never grown out of 1t. But for that
he would have been speaker of the
house in 1881, and but for that he would
have been big man in the senate. AS
for his colleague, Hill, he is not in it at
the hour of prayer. He seems to have
undertaken to do all the watching for
the country, and perhaps it would be too
much to impose any praying on him.
He remains in the cloak room until the
senate is ready for business. and during
business hours he is kept busy receiving
congratulations from members of the
house who come over to worship what
seems to be the rising sun. Quay,
doubtless through association with
Wanamaker, has learned to assume an
easy if not graceful attitude-a happy
medium between humility and careless
ness. 1t is notable that the senate
never fills up till after the chaplain
yields the chair to the vice president.

One ON Senator Blackburn.

Before / had ever heard Senator
Blackburn make a speech, must admit
that l dreaded the time that would
have to listen TO him. They have a
funny idea of humor down in Kentucky.

told by eX-Congressman Phil Thomp-
son, or some other distinguished Ken
tuckian, that Senator Blackburn in his
young days never lost an opportunity
to make speech, and had so many op-
portunities that the people grew tired
of hearing him. Having gone several
days without having chance to make
speech, Mr.. Blackburn heard that there
was to be 'neektie party" in near

TheOphile Gautier.

When Gautier first set out to charm
that gracious lady whose name is Fame
he was as fabulously handsome as
Merovingian prince. He was tall and
robust; his hair was hayward flood
his eyes were blue and victorious, says
Edgar Saltus. He was the image of
Young France. His strength was pro-
verbal; he outdid Dantes; he swan
from Marseilles to Chateau DIFF, and
then swan back. Had it been ne-es-
sary he would have breasted the
HelIeSpont. But of that there
was 10 need. There were hearts
nearer home that he won without effort;
women fell in love wife him at once;
the muse smiled, and glory stretched
her hand. His cOnquests were so nu-
mer0uS that to give an account of them
the historian would have to write in
Latin. In comparison, Mardoche was
a puritan; and yet. through charming
contradiction, 10 one has ever been
better supplied with beliefs. He had no
less than 365. one for every day in the
calendar, and it Was only in leap year

Cowed by a Broker.

An amusing story is told of the Mar
quis de Mores, who recently was sue
cessful principal in another duel-it is
difficult to say how many be has fought.
The narrator OF the story was dining at
the MaisOn Doree with StockbrOker, a
wel!-to-do fellow. who cuts very pre-
sentable figure in Partisan life, says
London Figaro. While the couple were
engaged with their fish, the Mar
quis de Mores entered. and ia
vored the stockbroker with a
most atfable bow, to which the
man of money responded with an almost
contemptuou5 nod. "Eow is It," asked
his companion, in amazement, ''that you
dare aifront such man-the most in
veterate fire-eater in Paris?" "Ah, mon
ami, replied the broker placidly, six
months ago | should not have ventured
to do it. but now it is different. If the
marquis were 10 challenge me he knows

RETURNING A VISIT.
How q Yankee General Got Even
With His Rebel Friend

Gen. FitZ-Hugh Lee, of the Confeder-
ate army, had been clasSmate at West
Point with Gen. Averill, the commander
of the cavalry of the Army of the POto-
mac, and the two men were warm per-
sOnaI friends. In December, 1862, Gen.
Lee attacked the Union Outposts at
HARDWOOD church and defeated them,
says the Youths Companion. On re-
firing he left a surgeon behind with the
wounded, and with him note for Gen.
Averill. which ran something like this:
Dear AveriIl: wish you would put
up your sword, leave my state and go
home. You ride a good horse, l ride
better. Yours can beat mine running.
If you won't go home, return my visit
and bring me sack of coffee. FITZ.
Three months afterward Gen. Averill
obtained permission from Gen. Hooker.

mac, to return Lees visit. AYerill had
expressed confidence in his ability TO

The enemy were driven within mile
of their winter camps at Brandy. AS
the Union cavalry retired, Gen. AverilL
left with surgeon at a field hospital

to Gen. Lees note of December:
Dear FitZ: Here is your coffee. How
is your horse? AvERILL.
Shortly after this cavalry battle, Pres
ident Lincoln visited the Army of the
Potomac, and asked many questions of
Gen. Ayerill about the fight and the
Confederate commanders. He wa s
shown Gen. Lees note, which he read
carefully, and finally asked Gen. Aver

SAID HE HAD A PULL"
0rville Duncan Boosted that He Would Get
Leach's Place and Was Dismissed.

Orville Duncan has been q fireman at No.
SIS chemical for some time. Lately he has
shown q disposition to want Eb Leach's
place, at headquarters. and announced that
he had q "puli" and would get 1t. He Is q
Democrat. The last time the Commissioners
of Public Safety met Duucan expected
them TO appoint him to Leach's place. at
the telephone. but no attention was paid to
the petition. This made Duncan pretty
hot. and it is said that he met President
Hawkins ut the Hendricks. called him
names and used language of O
very profane nature. This got to the ears
OF Messrs. Catrerson and sullivan, and Fri
day Duncan was suspended. pending ahear-
ing. Late yesterday afternoon the latter
named commissioners held a quiet meeting
at their office. The charge preferred against
Duncan was INSTRUMENTATION. To this he
pleaded guilty. and was dismissed from the
force. lie now has o right TO feel that. no
matter what services he rendered Democra-
cy. he has no political pull"
Duncan says that the purport of his con-
versation among a number of member of
the Hendricks Club, at the room of the
club, on last Tuesday night. was that he
thought a better selection could have been
made for the board than Mr.. Hawkins. He
disclaims having at any time said that he
had q pull on any body.
