Washington, April l2.-The senate met
at noon for the first time since the death Of
ex-senator Voorhees,, who until recent

quent reference to Mr.. Voorhees, brilliant
talents, impassioned ardor, kindly elo-
quenoe, genuine patriotism, and unselfish
devotion to his great cause, human and
divine, which enlisted his career. Immedi-
ately following prayer, Senator German,
of Maryland, moved that as a mark of
respect to their late associate, the senate
adjourn, adding that many senators de-
sired to attend the funeral. The motion
prevailed and at 1906 p. m. the senate
adjourned.

Disadvantages of Plagiarism.

A rather amusing story is told of GER
tain so called popular preacher" the
Rev. DIR. D, whose marvellous powers
of eloquence invariably gathered him large
audiences. People wondered at his SER
mons, and proclaimed him an intellectual
genius. Now the doctor was plagiarist
who patched up his own exceedingly poor
sermons by introducing here and there
passages from the sermons of celebrated
divines, but the ingenious way in which
he accomplished this prevented discovery.
Then, too, his audiences, he calculated,
were not students Of theology, and there
fore not likely to detect his appropriations.
But in this he made his mistake, and his
exposure took place as follows:
/ One day an elderly gentleman entered
the church and took seat in the first row.
As the doctor proceeded with his sermon,
the gentleman broke in now and then with
such remarks as "Thats Sherlock, F" "Ah,
from Tillotson," (" "Now it's Blair" etc.
The doctor stood it for little while, but
at last, full of wrath, he said:
my dear sir, if you do not restrain your
impertinent remarks and hold your tongue
I'll have you elected. "
The elderly gentleman, looking the doc
tor calmly in the face, said, "That's his
own. ."-Harper's Round Table.

Balfour as a Golfer.

Bailey's Magazine, a sporting monthly

four as golfer; "He treats the game as
seriously as Sarah Battle treated whist.
There is no pretense of his not caring
whether he wins match or loses it. He
likes to win, and when he plays with a
friend he has usually something on the
game 1t is delightful to witness the z>st
with which he enters into the sport. As
he strides across the links heexults in the
fresh air, sometimes handing his deer
stalker cap to his caddie. He is fond Of a
foursome with professional on his side.
The iron shots give him most difficulty,
but his play is generally steady. He gets
long, easy drive off the tee; his second
shot with the brassie is also clean, and his
cool nerves are invaluable in u bunker"
