Senator Hopkins, the auburn
haired successor of "Billy Mason"
addressed the Senate on the Sth on
the Panama question, taking the
position that the recognition of the
new republic and the negotiation
of the treaty were matters exclus-
lively for the President and outside
the Jurisdiction of the Senate. He
said there had been fifty-eight
rebellions in Panama in fifty years.
He regarded President Roosevelt
as one of the greatest men who
had ever occupied the White
House, and predicted that in an
other generation Democratic Sena-
tors, in denouncing the Republi-
can president, would class Roose-
velt with Grant, Lincoln, and
Warrington.

have fallen to him by the score, and it
has been simply out of the question for
him to decline them.
Taft is nothing if not obliging, he en-
joys companionship, and for one of his
temperament it was fatal So he has
succumbed to the inevitable and has
abandoned Washington altogether for
awhile to see if complete divorce from
the place will do him any good 1t is
high time.
More public men have been killed by
the social game in Washington than by
hard work. Too many dinners proved
fatal to Blaine, Reed, Hobart and dozens
of others who might be named All
three of those men were favorite diners
out, and from their position as we'll as
their personal accomplishments were
constantly in demand. All three of
them would doubtless be alive to-day had
they been permitted to confine them
selves to their public duties in Wash
ington without the distractions of al
most nightly dinners.
1t is getting to be the practice now
among those who are the targets of con-
tinuous invitations to devote as little
time as possible to each affair to eat
sparingly and to drink, if possible, not
at all. But even with these precau-
tons the society game is great drain
on the vitality of public man who
comes to it with the WEAKNESS and wor-
ries of his day at the capitol or the de-
partment.

WASHINGTON as resembling Lincoln
somewhat not only in personal appear
ance, but also in the homely quality of
their minds. One is known as Uncle
Shelby" the other as Uncle Joe," just
as Lincoln was known Familiarity as
Uncle Abe" And as Justice Harlan
recently remarked. when a public man
is known universally as Uncle" that
is a pretty sure sign he is close to the
hearts of the people and has the quail
ties that the people like.
As for Hit, he is one of the most in
teresting of all the men in congress,
and he has long been recognized as one
of the very ablest. He has been chair
man of the foreign affairs committee
in the house for great many years, and
1t has fallen to him to prepare the re-
publican side Of almost every diplomatic
question which has been the subject of
partisan controversy during that time
as, for instance, in the Hawaiian and
Cuban matters just before the war with
Spain. He has had longer and more
varied diplomatic experience than al
most any other man in public life, hav-
ing served as secretary of legation and
assistant secretary of state up to the
time he was elected to congress, while
before that he was associated with Lin
coin, first as the stenographer who re-
ported the Lincoln Douglass debates,
and second as one of the Official staff
at the white house during and after the
civil war. -.--..

Her mother died IN
1912, and she at once took her mothers
place as the head of the presidents
household, thus becoming the youngest
woman who ever presided over the
white house, except Mrs. Cleveland.
She was noted then for her beauty and
wit, and her career as mistress of the
white house was brilliant. She was
greatly admired by the great men who
in the middle of the last century gave
distinction to the political and social
life of Washington.
Just before her father was elected vice
president she had married James A.
Semple, a wealthy planter with large
estates in Virginia. When Tyler sue
ceeded to the presidency on the death
of Harrison she came to Washington
with him for the first time.
Tyler appointed Semple a paymaster
in the navy, and after Tyler left the
white house Mrs. Semple lived quietly
on her husbands plantation until the
outbreak of the civil war, when he re-
signed from the United States navy and
became a paymaster in the confederate
navy.
The close of the war left the Semples
impoverished, and Mrs. Semple leaving
her husband at home, went to Baltimore,
where she conducted a school for girls.
After her husbands death in the late
'70's Mrs. Semple, then about go years
of age, came to Washington to pass her
last days in the Louise Home.

The Louise Home. who founded the
nrincipal bank of Washington, and who
among other benefactions presented
Daniel Webster with the handsome
bouse since known as the Corcoran
house, and now occupied by Chauncey
NJ Depew.
At the close of the war he was perhaps
the wealthiest man in the country OF
southern proclivities. and those who had
been left destitute by the four years
fighting came to him in droves for re-
lief. Most of the cases were pitiful.
There were scores of women delicately
bred and used to life of comfort who
suddenly found themselves widowed
and helpless, with poverty staring them
in the face. Corcoran took pity on them.
He planned such charity as had never
been conceived before. He established
a home which should be open only to
women of the south, of gentle birth. and
that home. named in memory of his
wife, 'The Louise Home" is still main

purposes which he had in mind.
It is spacious building. surrounded
by ample grounds. in part of the city
where land has trebled and quadrupled
in value since Corcoran's day, in the

eminent southern statesman or soldier,
who spend the days in gossiping among
themselves about the brave days of old.

ulation, no matter what party happens

This record is due partly to the or
ganization of the house, and partly to
the understanding which has prevailed
between the leaders of the house and
senate. There has never been congress
where less friction developed between
the two branches or where the respec-
tive leaders knew better as time went on
what was likely to happen There has
been little partisan bitterness, the only
spirited debate in the house being be-
tween Cochran and Dalzell, which turned
chiefly on personal issues.
OF course, what gave the session its
opportunity for work was the special
session which President Roosevelt called
for November. That enabled congress
to dispose of a great amount of routine
