.HE BEATS THE RECORD.
Senator Morrill's Thirty Years
In the Senate.
NOTES OF A REMARKABLE CAREER

Cicero Was vain-.PresidentIal Court.
Senator Hanna Wants to BE An Orator
and Stnrtle tho Senate.
WAsIIINGToN April 2O.-[Spccial. I
Justin S. Morrill,, the veteran of the sem
ate, told mo tho other day that ono of his
great regrets was that he had never writ.
ten an autobiography. If ho had kept
notes of his experiences, he said, so that
he could now place his hand upon tho ma
terial and compile it without too much OK
ertion, he felt sure he could produce a work
which would be read with interest by
grcat many people. In this Mr.. Morrill,
was doubtless correct. His remarkable Gu
reer leads him back to the days when the
country was agitated about the admission
of Kansas to tho Union, tho Missouri COM
promise, the first whispers of secession. 1t
was in 1865 that Mr.. Morrill, first came to
Washington as congressman, or AZ years
ago last December. When he appeared upon
tho scene Of action, Mr.. Pierce was presi.
dent. Mr.. Morrill, has been here long
enough to sec dozen presidents In tho
White House, beginning with Piecrc and
ending with Mckinley. Ho has seen IA
new states admitted to the Union. He has
seen the population of this country con-
sidcrably moro than double. He has seen
great war, the reconstruction, the com
plctc obliteration of all tho bitterness TINT
the war caused Mr.. Morrill's present
term will not expire till 1908, and he is in
such good health that he confidently ex-
poets to servo it out.
Benton's Record Beaten.
The Vermont veteran has broken all rec
ords for continuous service in the senate.
March last ho completed his thirtioth
year i'll that body. 1t has been generally
supposed that Thomas II. Benton of Mis-
souri, served more than 30 years, but tho
truth is that Benton's term of service fell
four months short of 80 years. Mr.. Nor
rill has the record.
1t is not generally known that the patri-
arch from Vermont is already an author
Some time ago he prepared and had print
cd for private circulation among his friends
novel book entitled "Self Consciousness
Of Noted Persons" In this volume the
old senator told many anecdotes illustrat-
ing his general premise that all great men
arc more or less self conscious and oven
vain. He quoted from the writings of
several hundred great men of past ages to
establish this theory, including such as
Paul the Apostle, Demosthenes, Themisto-
Giles. Xenophon, Horace, Napoleon, Dick
ems, NIacnulay, Scott, Walt Whitman, JEFF
ferson, Webster and many more. Ono of
the most interesting quotations was from
Xenophon, who said of himself that he
was to eloquencc what Alexander tho Great
was to arms. Bold enough was the dcclara-
tion which the Gar Paul is said to have
made when some ono spoke of having re-
ceivcd an order from an important person
mt court. 'Thero is no person of impor-
lance here" said the car, Except myself
and the one to whom happen to DO talE.

beautiful decorations. In addition to
a special sermon preached by the pas
tor, Rev. S. f. Matthews, the choir
rendered special music under the direc-
tion of Chorister Thomas Evans, ac-
companied by Organist Mrs. Beddoe.
The text of the sermon was Levitt
Gus, xXiii:10-11. directing the bringing
of a sheaf or the first fruits of the
harvest as an offering. The speaker
first described the ritualistic forms
governing this service and then car
ried out the idea of the church and her
people bringing the first fruits of her
labors in Christ's vineyard. He picked
out the several farm implements and
used them as symbols of the methods
a Christian should employ in his chosen
work while laboring for good. The
plough, rake, hoe, spade, scythe, etc,
each signified some idea which a
worker might benefit by.
The speaker compared the simplicity
of the farm harvest and drew out the
idea of the application of Equality"

seriously burned about the hands on
Saturday morning in attempting to
extinguish the burning clothing of his
five year old son Edward. The boy
was burned about the. hands but not
seriously.
The boy had toddled into the yard
and too near the flames of a pile of
burning rubbish. His clothing caught
fire. The father rushed out and tried
to beat the flames out with his hands,
An employee of the cigar shop hurried
out with a shawl and wrapped the
screaming child in it quickly smothered
the fire.
DR.. Moylan was summoned and rend-
cred medical aid to father and son.
The boy was probably more frightened
than hurt, but Mr.. Decklenick will be
unable to use either hands for some
time, The burns in several places be-
ing very deep. This is the second ac-
cident of a similar nature which has
happened to Mr.. Deckelnick's family.
