O. Bacon, of Geoagia, who has

in Senate debates, is one of the

SPEEDING THE COMING GUEST

There was an amusing incident
in connection with the recent visit
of Prince Henry to Washington,
and Mr.. Herbert H. d. Pierce,
Third Assistant Secretary of State,
and President Roosevelt were the
principal actors.
1t was the duty of Mr.. Pierce to
see the arrangements for the re
ception of the Prince at the rail-
road station. Then he was to ride
tie the White House and notify the
President of the arrival.
The special train bearing the
Prince arrived. Mr.. Pierce was
on hand to greet the party. He
saw them into their carriages and
we'll started. Only then did he
leave to inform the President of
the safe arrival.
Jumping into his own carriage,
drawn by two full.bIooded, rest
less horses, Mr.. Pierce gave the
door of the vehicle vigorous
slam. At the same instant the
notes of the bugle of the escorting
troop rang out. The sounds
frightened the paving steeds, and
with sudden jump they started
on Il galIop down the broad ave-
nue..
The driver tried in vain to draw
them in. The animals, thorough
Iy frightened, bounded away at an
ever-increaslng speed. They grad
ually caught up with the cavalcade
of the Prince, which had secured a
good lead. Around the Princes
carriage, narrowly missing the
rear wheels, the frightened ami
mails dashed, and then straight
away for the long reach to Eff
teenth Street. A policeman made
an Intellectual attempt to stop the
team. Then two of the mounted
police joined in the chase.
The Treasury was reached.
Around the big building the team
swung in a magnificent circle;
then up Fifteenth to the main ave-
nue. again, and directly away to
ward the White House.
The vide driveway to the Exec
utive Mansion reached, the horses
turned in, and with an instinct
that seemed almost human, pulled
up to the main door and stopped.
Mr.. Pierce cIambered out of the
carriage. He dashed into the
building. Then his dignity re-
turned. He walked quietly to the
Presidents office.
81 desire to report" he said
without trace of emotion, "that
Prince Henry of Prussia has ar
rived safely in Washington, and
that he is now on his way to the
White House."
GLOW long ago did he arrive?''
asked the President.
"About two seconds, | should
say" replied Mr.. Pierce. -Satur-

recalls the fact that the Count
came to America as the official
representative of his government
and lent his military services to
the struggling colonies in the name
of France. La Fayette, while none
the less brave, came merely as a
private citizen.
The late j. Sterling Morton will
be chiefly remembered as the bit
ter opponent of the free seed dis
tribution. Mr.. Morton took the
extraordinary ground that Con-
gressmen should secure reelection
by their own merits rather than
by the distribution of garden seeds
at the expense of the Govern
ment.
General Funston should take to
heart the statement of the army
officer who when asked for an in
terview said: ''You ask me tC

When Paderewski Played.

When Paderewski, the pianist.
was in Washington not long age
he was the guest of Mr.. and Mrs.
Reginald DeKoven. After the re-
nowned Pole had departed from
the city Mr.. DeKoven said to a
friend:

house while Mr.. Paderewsk is a
guest there, but there was one
time when Paderewski himself
played, and played for me for
nothing. | believe | am the only
man in America for whom he has
done so much.
"You know there is a popular
idea that the great pianists-and
almost any of the great virtuosi,
for that matter-play freely when
at the homes of their friends.
Nothing could be more mistaken.
They do not play themselves, nei-
ther would they permit any one tc
play for them. Music is simply
barred. But one time Paderewski
did play for me.
II was at my residence, then in
New York, and was entertaining
at a musicale a number of singers,
famous in grand or comic opera
Suddenly word came to me that

much surprised at his visit. Hur-
rying to the door, | greeted him
warmly and asked, somewhat won
deringly, if anything serious had
happened.
{" oh, no. he replied. Il SIM
ply heard you were having little
musicale of your own in quiet
way, and thought l should come
around and play little myself for
you. You will not mind, will
you?'
'N 'Mindr l cried, thinking of
the large sums paid him for a sin
gle hours performance, and then:
why, you know you are most
welcome at any timeP
"And didn't he play. Forty
five minutes, for t.y-f-i-v-e

"No one objected, assure you"
