ALWAYS ON THE ALERT.
Senator Shoup Invariably Takes His
Meals Facing the Door.

Meals Facing the Door.
81 was surprised one day in the
Senate restaurant" said one of the
older senators today, "when | saw
Senator Shoup skirmishing around
for seat facing the door," says a
Washington correspondent of the
Philadelphia Times. "He refused
several seats which were offered
him. and finally found one so stu
ated that he could see everybody
who entered the restaurant door. |
asked what made him so particular,
and he said:
at may seem strange to you, and
undoubtedly it does, but as mat
ter of fact | couldn't eat mouthful
if my back was to the door. For
many years 1 carried my life in my
hand, and was on the lookout for
trouble all the time. | always ate
my meals with my face to the door
and brace of revolvers in my lap.
knowing Senator Shoup as do
l was not surprised at his explana-
tion," said the senator. 81 know
how Shoup lived as a scout on the
frontier. | know that Louis Wet
eel, Daniel Boone and Buffalo Bill
encountered no more dangers and
no more risks of their lives than
George Shoup. He served his
country with great credit, and
never sought distinction for his
services. OF course, he has no fear
now, for he has long since put be-
hind him the frontier life of dam
ger. He fears no enemies Of the
past, and he has no enemies in the
present. But, as a habit long
acquired, he must face the door
when he sits down in public
place, and he unconsciously feels
uncomfortable in any other posi-
ton. There are few men VINO know
him we'll enough to know this fact.
"And another thing | can tell
you about him." said the senator
"He is as alert today all the time
as if he were out on the trail and in
dread of a surprise. He notices
everything that is said and done
about him. | have been surprised
in evening conversations to hear
him narrate the events Of the day
in the senate. No man on the floor
carries away with him such a per-
feet picture every day of occurren-
ces. He can narrate in detail what
every senator said. what he die
when he entered the chamber, with
whom he conversed, and how h,
appeared. He sees what the littl,
page boys are doing, where they go
y whom they serve, and all of tn,
moving panorama on the floor. H,
knows which galleries were filled
and the character of the people VIII,
were present. All of this come
. from his early training and expert
ence. And no man can retain il
memory such a mass of details. H
can tell today some of the little in
cidents of the silver purchase re
peal act in a surprisingly vivic
manner. He will narrate the day
when certain conferences were held
and what brought them about. H

and always a mild-mannered, low
able gentleman"

fortunately for her, the clergyman who,
1T was said, had performed the Berke-

the house of lords decided that the son
William had not made out his claim.
He inherited, however, the castle and

His brother Thomas, out Of respect for
his mother, did not avail himself of the
decision of the house of lords and never
assumed the title of earl Of Berkeley.
On his death in 1882 the title passed to
George Lennox Rawdon Crawley Berke-
ley, descendant of the fourth earl.
He died in 1888. and the title was as
sumed as eighth earl by his son, Ran
dial Thomas Mowbray Rawdon Berke-

Mrs. Kate Jackson, a comic opera sin

Earl Fitz-Hardinge died unmarried
in 1856, and his brother, Sir Maurice,

ceeded to his fathers title in 1867 and in
1891 renewed the claim made by his I'M

Of lords, however, confirmed it's decision
of 1911 and upheld the right to the title

A woman who was about to pay for
some articles she had purchased in
New York store dropped a 1-cent piece
on the floor and it rolled away out of
sight, says the New York World.

floorwalker.

it with an umbrella handle, and the
woman said again:
