A SPEECH WITHOUT WORDS.
How the Late "Ben" Butler SiIenced
an Opponent

Francis E. Leupp says that probably
the shortest speech ever delivered in
Congress was made by Ben" Butler
of Massachusetts. An Ohio member
had fallen afoul of him one day and
poured upon him a torrent of abuse
which would have excited general in
dignation but for an unconsciously
ridiculous gesture with which the ora
tor accompanied almost every alter
nate sentence; this tempered the dis
gust of his hearers with mirth. He
would raise his arms just as high
above his head as possible and then
wiring his hands as if he were making
a delirious attempt to wiring them
off. Butler sat through the speech
with his eyes half closed, not moving
a muscle. He rose when his assailant
finished and stood calmly in the aisle.
After perhaps a minute of silence he
began: Mr.. Speaker" Another
impressive pause, and expectancy
reached nearly the bursting point.
Suddenly raising his arms. Butler re-
produced exactly the awful gesture of
the Ohio congressman. Then. his arms
fell to his sides, and for another min
ute he stood silent. That is all, Mr..
Speaker" he said finally, and sat
down; Il just wanted to answer the
gentleman from Ohio. Nebraska

THE GREAT AMERICAN SAILOR.

One of the Chief Factors in the Build
ing of the Country.
Unstinted praise of the American
sailor, backed by solid arguments of
his worth, were contained in the ad-
dress of the Rev. Winifred c.
Rhoades, pastor of the Eliot Congre-
gational church, at the meeting of
the Woman's Seaman's Friend Soci-
ETY. at the Central Congregational
church Monday afternoon. He said
in part: I'VE hear much about the
banker, the financier, and the soldier,
but of the poor humble sailor there is
very little said. AS a matter of fact,
the sailor was one of the chief fac
tors in the building of the United
States. During the early days, fish
ing was one of the leading industries
of New England, and later the trips
up and down the coast in search of
cod were of inestimable value in the
civilizing and settling of hitherto I'M
explored regions. Prominent men
were sailors in those days. Robert
Treat Paine, one of the signers of
the Declaration of independence, was
the commander of vessel, and from
the time when the first ship built on
American soil was launched on the
Mystic by Gov. Winthrop, New Eng
land excelled both in shipbuilding
and in the handling of these same
ships at sea.-Boston Transcript.

Moses Ashby, aged sceventy-seven,

Conn, Saturday and bought working
jumper and hat, the third Sunday
dress hat he had purchased during his
lifetime. The hat he was wearing he

five years, and cost s1.65. He lives
in Poquonoc. Mr.. Ashby works every
day and abstains from the use of
liquor, tobacco, tea and coffee. When

erase That "Tires ~

In some parts of New Mexico there
grows a grass which produces SOM
niferous effect on the animals that
Craze upon it. Horses, in nearly all
cases, after eating the grass sleep
standing, while COWS and sheep
almost invariably lie down.
1t has occasionally happened that
travellers have stopped to allow
horses to feed in places where the
grass grows pretty thickly and the
animals have had time to eat con-
siderable quantity before its effects
manifested themselves.
In such cases horses have gone to
sleep on the road, and it is hard to
arouse them. The effect of the grass
passes off in an hour or two, and no
bad results have ever been noticed on
account of it. Cattle on the ranches
frequently come upon patches of this
grass, where they feed for perhaps
half an hour, and then fall asleep for
an hour or more, when they wake up
and start feeding again. The pro-
gram is repeated perhaps a dozen
times, until thirst obliges them to go
to water.
Whether, like the poppy, the grass
contains opium, or whether it's sleep
producing property is due to some
other substance is not known.
