Colonel Tom Ochiltree. Prince of Good
 Fellows.


 Fellows.
 The news of the death of Colonel Thomas P. Ochiltree has provoked flood Of "reminiscences of the Texan Tn Washington, where he was especially well known. friend of every promi- ncnt statesman of his day. he was sought by all for his wit and good fel- lOwship. He was the brighest star O. the brilliant galaxy who used to make Chamberlin's their headquarters; and those who saw Colonel Ochiltree az dinner in this most famous resort for , bon vivIntS had the opportunity of meeting him under the most favorable circumstances.
 Two of Colonel Ochiltree's closest friends now in the city were pr. Ed ward Bedloe, of Philadelphia, who spends much of his time in Washing ton, and Colonel Philip B. Thompson. former Kentucky congressman. Speak ing to a Post reporter of the remark able personality and career of this sin gular man, Dr. BedIoe said:

 'Ochiltree was the soul of good feI- lOwship. He lived for nothing else. and was as loyal to his friends as he was forgiving and indulgent with his enemies. Although a politician, and spending his life in politics. he had happy faculty of steering clear of ex- tremes and of avoiding partisan bitter ness.

served rs q rostrum. There were not
very many to hear him, though at times
fair sized audience gathered around
the speaker. From socialist stand
