A Bullet in Senator FauIEmer's Leg
For Many Years.

WASHINGTON, July 6.-Senator
Faulkner, of West Virginia, who
was placed under the X rays Thurs
day. to see If bullet which he had
been carrying in his left leg since
1861, could be located. The sue
cess of the operation will not be
known until the development of the
negative is made. He is the first
United States Senator who has un-
dergoDe this test to locate a bullet.
The experiment was made by Ell
lott Wood, assistant to the architect
OF the Capitol. Senator Harris, OF
Kansas, and others of Senator Faulk-
ner's friends witnessed the test.
The bullet, which is pistol ball,
has been in the Senator's leg since
he was n twelve-year.ol boy. His
fatherhad just returned from France,
where he had been Minister under
the Buchanan Administration. Mr.
Faulkner was handling pistol, when
1t was accidentally discharged and
the bullet lodged in the calf Of the
left leg. It was decided that IL
would do little damage to the leg so
the physician ordered that IL should
remain. It has troubled the Sena-
tor some at times, however, and he
will decide after it has been located
whether he will have it removed.

How sweet the song of Zion here,
Sung by the friends we lovel
Why should they not be still as dear
When sung in Heaven above

That hymn we all shall own,
And join. to celebrate His fame,
The choir before the throne.
'Tis sweet to hear the music now.
The hymns that end our carci
If here the choir sings sweetly, how
Much sweeter " oyer there ?"
If on the wings of music we
To higher realms have flown,
How rapturous must their singing be,
The choir before the throne.
How Sweet the Name of jesus Sounds,
Won't that up there he sweet.
AS free from everything that wounds,
We gather at His feet
Nearer My God, to Thee again
Our spirits wish make known
How gloriously they'll give that strain,
The choir before the throne.
o, Happy Day. that Fixed My Choice,
All, once that piece was given;
But the veil opened, aud her voice
Finished the hymn in heaven.

Nor viii she sing alone;

But won't they make its music ring,

White stopped off at Lincoln, Nebraska,
and called on Hon. w. J. Bryan. They
hardly expected to find him at home. but
as their train had to lay there an hour or
two, they concluded to call anyhow, and
so took a carriage and drove out to the
Bryan residence. very pretty home in
the suburbs. When they drove up to the
gate they found William J. ont in the
yard in his shirt sleeves directing some
men who were at work there. He greet
ed them cordially and took them into
the house and presented them his wife.
Mr.. Bryan remembered M Brown. as
the latter was with him part of the time
on his trip through this State. The
callers spent an hour very pleasantly,
and recall the visit as bright spot in the
memory of their travels through the
West. The gentlemen are enthusiastic
in their praise of Mrs. Bryan also, and
consider her one of the smartest women
they ever met.-w. Va. Argus.
