famous anecdOte is that of Miss BERTHE

MI Vest, Il went into a variety theater
one night. 1t was one of those primitive
shows where the stage manager comes
before the footlights without coat and
Waistcoat and with his shirt sleeves
rolled up to the elbows, to announce the
next number on the programme.
Miss BERTHE Allendale remarked
the stage manager. who has entranced
two hemispheres with her wonderful
vocal powers, will now render, in her in
amitable style. that exquisite vocal selec-

"A gentleman in a red flannel shirt
rose in the midst of the audience and
exclaimed in an impressive bass voice:

for green apples
The manager. who had started to

SENATE TO LOSE ITS
TRIO OF ENTERTAINERS
THEY ARE VEST, CHANDLER AND W0LC0TT-THE MISSOURI
ANS STORY OF THE "s0L0S OF MISS BERTHE ALLENDALE"
"A Celebrated DOG CASE IN MISSOURI.

Washington. Feb. 5.--With the defeat
of Senator Chandler in his contest for
re election, it becomes evident that a
little group of men who have for years
furnished the forensic wine of the sem
ate with it's bead will soon have gone.
The other two are George G.. Vest of
Missouri, who has declined to stand for
another term. although his present term
does not expire until March 4, 1903. and
Edward O. Wolcott of Colorado, whose
constituents have refused to forgive him
tor supporting the existing gold stand
ard ticket in 1896.
1t is not necessary to go into a charac-
ter analysis of any of the three cases in
order to maintain the point that the
life of senatorial debate suffers a dis
tnrt loss in their removal from the
foreground. What their moral equip
ment may have been the motives which
impelled them to take their several att-
tudes on public questions and the wis
dom of these attitudes regarded in the
abstract are all consideration apart
from the question of what the men con-
tributed 20 the usually heavy and unin-
terestnS discussions in the upper cham
Der of congress.
Vests greatest gift was as a story
teller. Brought up in the southwest on
what was once the border land between
the slave and the free states and part
OF TIL frontier of Cauca sion civilizations
he acquired the art of selecting homely
material for his illustrations in address,
ing 1urieS or mixed political assem-
blages-illustrations suited to the under
standing of a people of plain habits and
meagre education. His stories derive an
extra piQuancy from the senator's crisp
