Every few of the old men in the
Senate show their age" says The
Washington Post "No one would
ever suspect that Plat, of Connecti-
cut, is seventy-two, or that Cullom,
of Illinois, was seventy last Novem-
Der Senator Hawley, of Connec-
tiout, is seventy three; Gear, of Iowa,
will be seventy five next April, Hoar,
of Massachusetts,, is seventy-three.
Senator Teller is still vigorous with
his SEVENTEEN birthday rapidly ap-
preaching, and Frye is remarkably
young man for the weight of nearly
seventy years. Jones, of Nevada, is
sixty nine, and his colleague, Steward
ia seventy-two. Senator Bate of Ten
nessee, like the late Senator Harris,
will not disclose his age. He must be
seventy or thereabouts, for he was n
soldier in the Mexican war, over half
century ago"
