In THE SENATE.
Benton, Blair and Grant Eulogtzed
by Several Members.

WASHINGTON, May 19.-The closing
hours of the Senate were occupied in ac-
cepting from the State of Missouri statues
of Benton and Blair. located in Statuary
Hall of the Capitol, and from the Grand
Army of the Republic the statue of Gen.
L. S. Grant, located in the Capitol rotun-
da. series of addresses were made, be-
ginning with one by Mr.. Vest, who spoke
enthusiastically and eloquently of both Ben

go further than the presentation of
statue of Francis p. Blair to the national
Capitol by the State of Missouri to en-

war of the rebellion had been wiped out
Indeed, both Benton and Blair mad de-
voted their lives to the cause of Free Soil
and the further extension of African slav-
cry while the State of Missouri had been
the scene OF the beginning of the agita-
ton I'm which the war originated.
Mr. Vests review of Colonel Benton's
career was an interesting history of the
days of Clay. Webster and Calhoun. He
was Mr.. Vest said, not the equal of Clay
as an orator. of Webster as a lawyer or of
Calhoun as an analytical debater. but he
was the superior of any of them as an all
round legislator. He said that but for
Rlafr's influence Missouri would have
given her solid military strength TO the
South. and If this had occurred il was
possible that the result of the war might
have been different.
Mr. Vest was followed by Mr.. Hoar, who
said: 1.-THE whole country approves the
choice of Missouri. When the figure of
benton Is unveiled the genius OF Missouri
rather. the genius of the West-has come.

N0MORE PENNIES
Father, Outsy Says Il IS An
Insult TO Put Them In
Collection Plates.

New York. July 16.-During service
in ST. Leo's Roman Catholic church yes
terday the Rev. Father Ducey announced
emphatically that he wanted no more
pennies put into the basket.
He said he had counted so many OF the
small coins i'm the collection of the pre-
vious Sunday that the work made him
tired. There were nearly 900 at one mass.
mostly in pennies.
This putting OF pennies In the collec-
tion plates" he added. ''is an insult 10
the church. Don't put any moro In. No
one can truly believe I'm the presence OF
Christ I'm the church and give penny for
the support of his religion. It's mock
cry Of religion"
When the ushers began the collection
IL could be observed the words of the
pastor had been needed, for instead OF
the copper coins there were bright nick
els. dimes, quarters and bills in the
plates.
