Boston, Mass, March 2.-The proposed

Butler TO be placed on the State House
grounds was the subject of lively hear
ing before the committee on military
affairs and State House, sitting jointly
today. Representatives Haynes related
the story of the reporting of bill last
year and its reference to this general court.
There was no question Of Mr.. Buffers
service before and during the war or of its
extreme loyalty In remonstrance ex-
Representative Thurston of North Bridge
made a stirring speech picturing the
career Of the general early in the war and
during his service at New Orleans. Had
his career closed there, and had he re-
turned TO New Orleans" he said, "all
would have done him honor; but he did
not and slowly but sadly the conviction
came upon the people that an ordinate

of the honor
\ Mr.. Thurston said he would refer to
the public career of General Butler. He
charged him with completely with Illicit
trade with the enemy in 1884, which was
only stopped by Grant assigning General
Gordon To the command at Norfolk.
Secondly Mr.. Thurston attacked the gen
eral on his records in connection with the
soldiers home. He charged that for ten
years he kept 800, 600 of the soldiers home

The market was somewhat listless on the

that opened up trihe the general tendency
seemed TO be TO quio,ness II not actually to-

ports from all over the country have led him

showed considerable weakness this morning

not well received and several OF the securities
were heavy in sympathy with Jersey. The
Burlington statement, which showed net
increase of $3.50. 900 was well received, and
there was very little stock for sale when 1t
came out. The buying of the stock was some

the Strong Sturgis people were buying for

Later in the day the enthusiasm over the b.

were made as to how il was possible for the
road to show over s2oO.000 net and only $4,000

The dispatches to Sullivan Brothers a. Co.

In regard TO the wheat situation, x. J.
Knight 81 Co. quote Paine, Webber & Co. as
saying: 1.-TWO successive crops of any grain
much under OF much above the average are
exceptional, and three such are unknown.
The law of average is opposed TO another poor
winter wheat crop, another bounteous corn
crop and another heavy oat crop in 1897. A
525, coo, coo yield of good quality winter wheat
against an average Of s65, 10000 poor quality
during the past two years would prove an
important factor in the good-times problem.

Garret A. Hobart will be the twenty
fourth vice president OF the United States.

Jefferson, Aaron Burr, John c. Calhoun,
Martin Van Buren, John c. Breckinridge,
Chester A. Arthur and Levi Il. Morton
were among the best. Eight, or one-third
Of the whole number, hailed from New
York. Massachusetts, has contributed three

and South Carolina, Pennsylvania, Al,.-

have been SO presidents pro temporc Of tho
senate, and IL Is remarkable fact that
the grade of men who have filed this posi-.
tion in the last quarter of a century is even
higher than 10 was in the earlier years of
the republic. Wadc, Carpenter, Thurman,
Bayard, Davis, Edmunds, Sherman and
ingalls, take rank in ability higher than
almost any Of their predecessors.

he took his seat were passed in hiding,

tiality that he commanded the admiration
or the senate. When he took his leave, he
made speech which will ever live as
model. He moved his hearers Co tears and
was the recipient of rosoletion of thanks,
which was anything but pcrfunctory. II
was said of him that he presided with the
impartiality Of an angel and the rigor of

ticularly sad because of one great disillu-

a baby, l was a member of china paint
ing club. Decorative art was just in its
infancy here-from the Impulse in art mat
tiers given this country by the centennial
in 1876, and / was enthusiastically riding the
top wave. In my club were a number or
intimate friends and conceived the charm
ing idea of painting a tea set for my Dapy
John; each of my friends was to paint me
a plate, and the whole beautiful achieve
ment was to be carefully cherished and
stored away until the dear cherub's wedding
day. All the other women thought the idea
was lovely and entered into 1t with great
zeal and interest-the beautiful china was
finished, admired extrayagantly by all con-
cerned and then packed away.
well the other day when John am
nounced his engagement ] joyously broke
to him my great piece of information-his
bridal china in the attic. John is an artist
himself, you know and l feared l saw a
forboding flicker of amusement in his eyes
when j told him of the exquisite tea set
A few days before the wedding he said:
Come, mother, let's go up in the attic and
see my bridal china We went and care
fully unpacked the boxes-John just like a
man-WiiStled as piece after piece was
taken out then he said brutally: No, dear
little mother; not on your sweet life-this
tea set was never painted for me-. |
couldn't cry because / had to laugh; it
was so atrocious However. / gave all my
friends a luncheon on their china and mine
we had a world of fun over it, and the one
who painted the worst plate received a
handsome prize
