The home of Senator and Mrs. Morrill,,
In Thomas Circle, Washington, was the sceno
of brilliant party in celebration of the Sena-
tors eighty-fourth birthday. From until
IL o'clock the drawing-rooms held distin-
guished company. and the occasion was one
of festive congratulations and superb floral
gifts to the host and hostess. Senate and Mrs.
Morrill, looked extremely well, and the years
are light upon both. He has not missed
day in the Senate this session, and he is
always promptly on time, which cannot be
said of some of his younger colleagues.
Senator Morrill, is the oldest man in years
and In continuous service in Congress. Ho
Is in the fortieth year Of straight Congress
iongal service, having served twelve years in
the House of Representatives and twenty
seven years In the Senate. His fifth term in
the Senate will expire in 1897. Should he
complete it, he will have been Senator
thirty years. Thomas H. Benton, OF Mis-
souri,, was the only man who ever saw q
longer continuous service in the Senate. Mr.,
Benton was in the Senate from October. 1920,
to March, 1851. But he was only two years
in the House, so that his whole Congressional
service is short of Senator Morrills by nearly
eight wears.
