"A Ensdfsh View OF It's Power, An
thority and Performance.
The senate has played a very great
part IN American history, and, on the
whole, the tremendous power and au-
thority welded by the senate have been
well exercised. The majority Of the
senators are statesmen Of great polit-
zeal ability as well as men OF high char,

There are few sights in the political
world on either side OF the Atlantic
more impressive than the senate In ses

seems to pervade the assembly. The
smailness Of their numbers, the fact
that they are armed with authority
which Is executive as vel rs legiSla-
tive and the knowledge that they rep
resent not mere localities. but states,
in Their corporate capacity. and states
which are often as populous as Euro
pean kingdoms, naturally fill each indi-
vldual senator with the sense Of per
sonal distinction. \ United States sen

tcnscly conscious and proud OF tie

what an individual British peer thinks

The senate can veto every appoint

An admirable way TO take the morn

plunge into cold water IS recommended
by an authority IS follows: Stand IN
hot water deep enough to cover the

sponge the body Off quickly. Dry and
rub vigorously and get into hannels
before drying the feet. This is better
for any ouc than daily immersion. II
IS the rubbing more than the water

STANTON'S IRISH STEW.
A story of the Great War Secretary
as Void by His BOdygunrd.

An attempt by Secretary of War
holding the war department Office
against the removal order of President
Andrew Johnson is one Of many anec
dotes related by Louis Koerth, at the
period mentioned the great war secre
tarys bodyguard.
Fe6. u, 1868, President Johnson ap-
pointed General Lorenzo Thomas sec
rotary Of war ad interim, but the pow
err Of removal having been taken by
the tenure of Office act from the presi-
dent, Mr. Stanton refused to resign or
10 vacate the Office of secretary.
He camped In the office, determined
to hold it until the result OF the inn
parchment proceedings against the
president, which were then pending in
the senate, should be determined. For
sixty days Mr.. Stanton held "the fort"
and during that period his faithful
bodyguard, eX-Sergeant Louis koerth,
then i'm the United States general serv-
ice, assigned to the war department,
kept him company.
On the day In which Mr.. Stanton re-
ceived the official notification Of his
removal by the president he made i'm
mediate preparations for siege. He
dispatched Sergeant Koerth to Mrs
Stanton for blankets and pillows, but
that lady refused to send them, insist
ing that the secretary should come
home and give up the office.
Mr. Stanton smiled on receiving her
message and simply said:
'Koerth, go to your own house and
bring blankets, pillows and such cook
ing utensils as we may need"
The Irish stew was the first effort
Of the secretary and his bodyguard.
Hoerth, being a German, needed In
structions in the mysteries of prepar-
ing the savory stew, and the secretary
named the various ingredients, which
he ordered the servant to purchase.
Both men had spent busy and la
borlously exciting day, and both were
tired out when the pot was put on the
fire to cook the stew.
The consequence was that the great
war secretary and his bodyguard fell
asleep. The secretary was the first to
be awakened by the smell Of the burn
ing stew.
"Koerth, Koerthl Wake up, man|
shouted Mr.. Stanton. THE stew Is
burning"
Koerth sprang 70 his feet. but, alas,
too late To save Mr.. Stanton's Irish
stew II was burned and smoking.
while the pot was a glowing rcd. Rue
fully the secretary rolled himself up In
his blankets on the sofa and went 10

follows:
All, that grand entry! That was
something to live for. No matter how

a perioo of confusion in which horses
were crowded together as thick as they
could sand, while the riders dressed
and molnted in frantic haste, for to be
late me,nt to be fined. At last the ring
master tlapped his hands as a sign that
all was in readiness. There was a mo-
mentart hush. Then bugle sounded,
the fiaIt were thrown back, and to the
crashirt accompaniment Of the band
the seemingly chaotic mass unfolded
into Couble line as the horses broke
INTO sharp gallop around the freshly
dug rirg.
The lrst time Calico did the grand
entry lie felt as though he had been
sucked into n whirlpool and was being
carried around by some irresistible
force. 80 dazed was he by the music
by tho hum OF human voices and by
the Unfamiliar sights that he forgot
to rea1and kick He could only prance
and mlrt. He went forward because
the rlclr OF the outside horse dragged
him alng by the bride rein. Around
and aJund he circled until he lost all
sense III direction, and when he was
finally shunted out through the dress
ing tel flaps he was so dizzy he could
scarceT stand.
