SENATORIAL CAUMS.
Strange Companionships Formed at
Washington.


Strange affinities in some mysterious
manner develop among senators,
writes a Washington correspondent,
The scholarly Lodge of Massachusetts
and Pitchfork Tillman of South Caro-
lima are great friends. So strong Is
the tie that when Tillman wanted the
St. Louis worlds fair bill to carry his
Charleston appropriation Lodge told
him he would stay with him to the
end For some time after the pol
ishe3, talented Beveridge entered the
senate he was an odd one. He appar-
entity found no congenial spirit. He
seemed to care to cultivate nobody and
nobody cultivated him. 1t is different
now. Beveridge has found his sena-
torial chum. AS usual, the case is .
friendship of opposites. The senator
in whom the Indiana genius has dis
covered comradeship is the new man
from Utah, Kearns. While Beveridge
was going through college and win
ming fame as brilliant orator, Kearns
was prospecting on grub-stake in tho
Rockies and .he Sierras. Beveridge
burned the midnight. oil over dead lam
guages. .Kearns carried a sack of -four,
a fitch of bacon and a pick into the
Wilderness. About the time that In
diana woke to the intellectual merits
Of Beveridge. kearns struck it rich in
abandoned workings OF an old mine.
Beveridge is famous. but brain-weary.

In letter to Judge W. E. Noe
OF Yellville, attorney General
Geo. w. Murphy says:
SIN answer to yours of the 10Th
inst, regarding the ages between
which able bodied male persons
are subject b road duty, in
which you suggest that the sup
Elemental act OF 1899, p. 40, sup
elemental to the road act Of 1897,
fixes the road dutiable age at
from 81 at 45 years. The sup
Elemental act is not general IN
application; it had reference only
to counties that had adopted the
road law in 1897. The gen.
'eral law fixed the working period
to begin at IS and end at 45' 1t
can not be conceived that the
road tax act OF 1899 intended to
fix different periods of road duty
throughout the state. Its Ian
guage subjecting those who are
already subject to road duty un'
der the law, but reducing the
time to four days, has reference
to the general law. If this is not
true, you would find the burden
greater in some counties than in
others, the dutiable age ranging
from 81 to 45 and from 18 to 40
in the others. No such condition
was intended"

services and he testified that his
peace was sadly disturbed by the
unseemly behavior of the "riot-
ers." After he told his story in
chief he sat down with clasped
hands waiting for the defendants
attorney to begin on him. He
didn't have long to wait. The
examination began like this;
"Brother Spears, you led the
meetin' that night?"
81 did, sir"
"You prayed?"
81 did, SIR
And preached?"
81 tried to-"
"And sung?"
81 sung"
"What did you sing?"
" There is a Fountain Filled
With Blood sir"
Here Mr.. Dysart pulled a hymn
book from his pocket and handed
it to the witness with the remark:
"Please turn to that song,
Brother Spears.
The witness did so.
"That's what you sang that
night?"
ut is, SIR
"Well, stand up and sing it
now, if you please.
What"
"You heard what / said, Broth
er Spears"
"But | can't sing before this
sort of crowd"
Brother Spears" with much
apparent Indignation, "do | un.
derstand that you refuse to fur.
nish legitimate evidence to this
jury?"
"No-no-but, you see"
"Your Honor said Mr.. Dy.
| sart, 81 insist that the witness
shall sing the song referred to
just as he did on the night of the
alleged disturbance. 1t is a part
of our evidence, and very i'm
portant. The reason for it will be
disclosed later on.
There was long jangle be-
tween the lawyers, and the court
finally ordered the witness to get
up and sing.
/ "And mind you, Brother
Spears, said Dysart, seriously,
"you must sing it just as you did
that night; if you change a note
you will have to go back and do
it all over again. "
The witness got up and opened
the book. There is a vast differ
ence between singing to a con-
gregation in sympathy with you
and a crowd Of court room habit
ues. Brother Spears was pain
fully conscious Of the fact. You
know how those time hymns
