FsVm ne Republican, Emp0rid, Kan
Mrs. Jennie Carlow resides at 7l3 Mer-

DOLLY MADIsoN's LIFE.
The Little Quaker Loved the world and Its
Brightness.

The Little Quaker Loved the World and Its
brightness.
Miss Beaston introduced her audi
ence TO a character very different from
the ones of which she has previously
told them. Her subject was Dolly
Madison" and Dolly, though born n
Quaker, loved the world and the flesh
and the devil, and loved them all the
more intensely because of the Qaalser
grayness of her youth.
She was twice married; first 20 John
Todd, Quaker lawyer, who died Of
yellow fever, and then 20 James Mad
ison. At the time she met the latter
she and her mother were keeping
boarders in Philadelphia, and Aaron
Burr was one of the boarders. He in
troduced James Madison 20 the family,
and afterward took all the credit for
having made the match. James Mad
ison's visits TO the fair widow soon be-
came so frequent that they attracted
the attention Of Martha Washington, a
connection Of the family, and she wrote
20 Dolly in much the same words that
a modern matron might use under sim
liar circumstances.
Dolly, come and see me at once, she
said. II want to know what ehis
about James Madison means"
What IL meant was soon made known
20 everybody, for Dolly was married to
James Madison with great eclat. She
had a real wedding dress this time, in
stead of Quaker gray, with orange
blossoms and jewels. There were wed.
ding favors ON horses, the service was
performed by a clergyman Of the Eng
lish church and afterward there was q
dance.
From that time on Dolly had all the
gayety she wanted. She met dukes
and lords and princes and was a bril-
liant social successful OF which re-
joiced her frivolous little heart. An
odd proof of her utter and complete
revolt against everything connected
with Quakerism is to be found in a
miniature OF her which has been pre-
served and which shows her decl5ed
out in no less than Eve distinct and
brilliant colors. Y. Tribune.

In tho matter OF the communication Of the
Secretary Of the State Grange Of Illinois
dated january lst, 1897, cmbodying reso-
luton OF tnas po9y auopt99 ~ " pscsiaoes
and Warehouse Commissioners to reduce
the passenger rate from three cents 70 two
cents per mile.
The Commission Is OF the opinion that 70
do 80 nt this time would bo unwise and un.
warranted and would be unjust 10 the rail
road interest OF the state. While some OF
the great Trunk Lines In Illinois might be
able TO stand such q reduction, yet the
smaller roads aud those which do almost
wholly local business, and which are now
and have been for the last two years strug-
Cling for existence, would be most seriously
affected by IT,
Such action on our part would simply in.
crease the heavy BURDEN under which they
are staggering now. n is well known
fact 10 those who have r.ken the trouble TO
investigate the amount OF passenger busi-
ness done BY the railroads In Illinois during
the past two years that there has been
large decrease In the number OF passengers
carried THIS Is due In our judgment not 10
the amount charged for such service but 10
the general depression in oil lines OF busi.
ness, the low prices OF farm products and
the unsettled financial conditions which have
had their effect on the passenger as well as
l the freight business.
And Il il also a fact, as shown by tho
sworn reports of tho railroads OF Illinois,
| that the capital invested IN such property
has not paid even afairinterestto TO thcstock-
holder. This question was before us when
we revised the freight schedule In 1895 and
| the whole question was thoroughly consul
rered. We did not think then and neither do
we feel now that in justice 20 both the pub.
/ lie and the railroads, because each should
stand on tho samo equality before tho law,
this reduction should be made at this time.
/ II the country was prosperous our conclu-
/ sious might be different.
The statistics in our office show that for
| the past three years, 1884,, 1895 and 1898, the
average amount charged by the railroads
/ per passenger mile Is a fraction above two
cents, although the maximum allowed them
/ was three cents.
For the reasons above stated we do not
/ feel that this reduction should be made at
/ this time. We are also asked torecommcnd
/ this reduction 10 tho Legislature. In view
Of our conclusion we DO not feel that II
would be consistent for us TO do so; how
ever, the Legislature has the power 70 regu-
/ late the maximum rate which can be charged
| for passenger service and VIC leave the mat
/ ter to their wisdom.

COLUMBUS, o., Jan. 2S.-The spacious
lobby of the Hotel Chittenden was
crowded yesterday afternoon and even
ing by members of the general assem-
bly,, state officials and politicians, aud
the all absorbing topic was the senior
Ohio senatorship. About 90 members
Of both houses of the Legislature came
70 attend the reunion, and most of
them were attracted wholly by
the talk about the senatorship.
II was an utter impossibility to get
poll of the members upon their
preference in event of a special session
20 elect a successor 20 Senator Sher-
man. Not over a half a dozen would
even say they hnd preference. The
drift of sentiment, however, was
