WOMAN'S PERFECT AGE.

It was Thackeray who decided that the age of the Venus of Milo was thir- ty-two. This we may take as expert authority, and so regard thirty-two as the era when woman is at her per- feet moment of full bloom. Certainly, it would seem that from this on to for ty are the years when she Is most apt to feel and to inspire great love. Some one has announced that Cleopa- tra was tfirty-eight when she and An thony kissed away kingdoms,' and some one else has declared that Helen of Troy was nearly forty when Paris was smitten with her beauty and ern- broiled the gods and heroes in battle. And as these two ladies have reputa- tion for attractiveness unequalled since Eve gave ear to the serpent, we may take it that the age of charm is nearer the days of Indian summer than the days of spring buds and young leaves. -Ainslies Magazine.

GORhlN MAN CHOSEN CHAIRMAN
DEMOCRATIC SENATORS TAKE
 ACTION.

Necessity for Party Unity of Action
 Kecognized-Desirs to Have Their
 Vacancies on Committees Filled.
 Washington. March 6.-The democrat i, senatorial caucus. which met at Il ,lock to-day organized by electing < nator German to his old position as c airnan of the caucus. This is a per manent place. and assures him the oc- cupancy of the democratic conferene room. one of the most commodious and best located committee rooms in the senate end of the capitol. There were present twenty-eight of the thirty three democratic senators.
 Senator Germans nomination was suggested by Senator Bacon and there was no opposition to his selection. In taking the chair he thanked the sena- tors for the honor conferred, but did not make an extended speech. The re- maining time of the session was devot- ed largely to the discussion of the pres ent situation in the senate and the ne- cessity for democratic harmony and unity of action. There was a general feeling that the vacancies caused by the retirement of democratic senators from committees which have to deal with questions bfeore the present called session should be filled. and it was de- cided that the designation of the mem bers of these committees should be made by a steering committee to be ap- pointed by the chairman of the caucus but their selection should later be rati- fled by the caucus.
 The steering committee for the last congress has numbered only seven mem. bers, but Senator German requested that the number be increased to nine which was the number in the days of his previous chairmanship.a and this increase was decided upon. MT. German will make his selection of members of this committee in time to have a. meeting to. morrow, when the question of supplying the vacancies on the regular committees of the senate will be taken up.
 The caucus placed in the hands of tht steering committee authority to decide for the democrats wehther there should be general reorganization of the sen. ate committees or the mere filling of tht vacancies on those committees whicf will deal with pressing questions during the extra session. The committee i: empowered to negotiate with the repub lican steering committee with a view tC entering upon general reorganization but so far as there was expression o opinion on this point it was favorable to the view of leaving the question ol reorganization on general lines to be de tern1ined by the republicans, as they ar, in power.

This weird scene never fails to bring down the house in a thunder of applause.
