At a recent dinner to Senator-elect
Chauncey M. Depew at the Union
League club a favor which made a
sensation was a bit OF CONNECTION In
the shape OF a huge and luscious-look-
ing peach. 1t at once reminded the
diners Of the Bowery campaign OF DR..
Depew, which resulted in his being
called de peach" and the crowd as
II inspired broke out at once in sing
ing the chorus of Hoyt's once popular
song, The Bowery." The fun was
fast and furious for a few minutes.

he was neither received by the king
