JOHNNY AND A NSF.
The Two S"nniora McIMurln Arc Ofttn
Con fused In Public Mind.

1t il funny, says the Washington
Post, how tho two Mel IAurins in tho
Senate get mixed mp. One comes
from South Carolina and tho other
from Mississippi. AT tho White
House tho othor night McLaurin of
Mississippi, was given the hat of tho
other McLnurin, who had to go homo
without any covering for his curly
hair.
Tho two Senators do not look in
the least alike, but their pictures are
constantly being transposed in the
newspaper Offices. When McLaurin
Of South Carolina delivers speech
full Of devotion to Republican prin-
ciplos, McL"urin of Mississippi secs
hls own picture as an accompaniment,
much to his annoyance. Sometimes
tho shoe is on tho othor foot, as when
McIIaurin Of South Carolina found
himself portrayed as ono of the d.
rectors Of the State prison in Missis-
sippi on the occasion of some recent
trouble there. There seems to be no
way to avoid this mixing up of tho
two Senators, except when tho roll
of tho Senate is being called, and
then tho two McLaurins are always
found on tho opposite q de of the
Esame question.

a Washington dispatch to tho Now
York Evening Post says: President
Roosevelt continues to interest all his
visitors by the breezy frankness with
which he discusses everything that
comes up. A New England Congress-
man thus describes recent call at
the White House:
81 wanted TO see the President
about an important postoflce in my
district, | had not bothered him
much up to that time; SO | tele.
phoned Mr.. Cortelyou, and received
an appointment. was ushered
into the Presidents reception room.
Many other people were there; we
could hear the President talking
with some one in tho Cabinet room.
and, while it would havo been i'm
possible to follow the conversation.
the tones were strong enough to indi-
cate vigorous discussion. Pretty
soon the door from tho Cabine. room
opened and in came the President.
81 am not going to SOC any of these
people except Sentor Bard--uot any
OF them-l am too busy; | can not
do it, said the President to Cortel
you with considerable emphasis.
Snlting the action to tho word, he
took Senator Bard over into the win
dow and had considerable talk with
him. Mr.. Cortelyou beckoned for
mo to stay, and the President, as soon
rs he WAS through with Mr.. Bard,
camo over and sat on the sofa beside
me. When | mentioned my post
office, he told me to 90 down TO the
department and fix the matter up
with the Postmaster General, with
the mir Of one who was tired about
hearing Of postoilices. As | got up
TO go he looked over to two Young
men who were still waiting. You
are from Alabama, aren't your he
asked, and before they had time TO
answer, he added: You want So and
So appointed? The young men re-
piled that they did, but before they
could explain why, the President
told them that he was sick of hearing
OF their patronage squabble. You
say the other candidate for this Office
ought to be in Jail, don't ) ou?' lie
went on. Yes sir; he ought to be
there,' was the reply well now,'
said the President, his friends assure
mo that yonr man ought to be in jail.
| assume that you are both right. 1
wish you would go to tho Attorney
General and put in writing tie
reasons you have for believing that
the other candidate should be sent to
the penltentiary, and I will have a
similar statement made up in regard
to your candidate, then we'll lot the
Attorney General look them both over
and decide what is to be done. Per-
haps, if yon know anything good
about the man you arc backing, you
had better put that in writing, too,
and give it to the Attorney General
That WAS all stayed to hear, but
it struck mo IA characteristic.
