splendid victories abroad. and even at
home he can show superb constructive
achievements that compensate Tor his
despotism. The popular instinct recog-
nizes ir Mr.. Morgan a worker, a creator
one who handles millions as the engi-
neers at Assuan handled their blocks of
stone. for the construction of mighty
and benehcent fabrics. Hence it does
not feel toward him the resentment it
displays against those whose wealth IS
a bsorbed in self-indulgence.
But he is no mere business machine,
grinding out syndicate and cOnsolida-
tons as rolhng-min turns out steel
rails. He is full bfooded, many-sid-
ed human being, as rich in personal
tastes and interests IS in dollars The
things he loves most of all are collie
dogs. and the man to whom he gives a
blooded Scotch collie from the Crags-
ton kennels may congratulate himself
on having reached the inner sanctuary
of Mr.. Morean's favor. He is an indie
fatigable collector Of rare books and
works of art. and carries into that pur-
suit some of the same methods by
which he beats down opposition in Wall
street
In September. 1902. the Morgan in
terests controlled IS. 555 miles of Amerl-
can relays. or more than the mileage
Of Germany. Great Britain and Ireland

FIRST DAY OF TIE SPECIAL
Features Were Flowers and Applause TO
the Notable Members.

Features Were Flowers and Applause fof
the Notable Members.
Washington. Nov. 10.-With galleries
crowded, with the chambers maSs OF
elaborate floral tributes and nearly eY-
erv senator in his seat the gavel OF
President Pro TEN. Frye sounded at
noon calling the senate together. The
SPECIAL session of the senate following
the adjournment last spring Of the Eff
ty-seventh congress eliminates much OF
the routine work III the senate which
otherwise would have been performed
on the assembling of the special SEES
sion of the Fifty-eighth congress. New
.rvsators had gone through the formal
ity Of taking oaths of office, seats had
been assigned and with tie exception
Of the appointment of some vacancies
all functions OF the organization had
been completed.
The feature of the gathering was the
flower display. This was gorgeous, es-
pecially in the cases Of Hanna ana
German. Nothing was done except the
usual routine of first session. Both
German and Hanna were the recipients
of loud and long applause when they
entered.
Washington, Nov. 1O.-The house Of
represents tives Of the Fifty-etghth con-
gress completed it's organization at its
first session except for the naming of
committees, which will follow later.
Cannon received the applause Of Dem
ocrat3 and Republicans alike when he
took up the gavel of authority, the
demonstrate ton being most compliment
tary to the newly elected speaker. The
drawing Of seats in which old and new
members alike take deep concern oc-
cupied a greater portion of the days
session. The usual compliment was
paid the leaders and veterans of both
sides, they being permitted to select
theirseats without drawing lots. McClel-
Ian of New York was greeted with ap-
plause by his colleagues as he selected
his seat, as was Jonah KalauiauOale,
delegate from Hawaii, and other mem
bers There were loads of flowers put
on the desks as soon as they were
chosen. Adjournment took place at
$3.50 D. ID.

Remember This.

When in need of good reliable cough
medicine our readers will do we'll to
remember that Harris Honey and Hore-
hound not only affords Immediate re-
lief, but effectually cures. Mrs. Michael
Savage of Lincoln, ILL.,, says of this
valuable medicine, "On Saturday night
of last week was awakened and greatly
alarmed at finding my daughter, four
years of age, suffering from severe
attack Of Group. AS we always keep a
bottle of Harris Honey and Horehound
in the house, l gave her three doses of
the medicine and in twenty minutes
she was entirely out of danger. Harris
Honey and Horenound is sold by
Joseph T. Bennett, Druggist.

Husband and wife disagree.

Husband and wife often disagree
about some matter that concerns each
other and frequently the husband
finds that his wife's Judgment is the
best, the case of Mr. John w. Young
of Lincoln, ILL.,, is however an excep-
ton, he says: "My wife and [ both
had severe cold and we decided to
get some kind of medicine [ bought
myself bottle of Harris Honey and
Horehound and taking it as directed
was we'll in a short time. She wanted
another kind and with the result that
she still has a bad cough. L advised
her to take Harris Honey and Hore-
hound and think she will have to do
