Gould, pianist, will furnish the pro-
gramme. These are three of the best
musicians in Savannah in their respec-
tive lines. Miss Gould has rapidly
come forward as a pianist during the
past three years, and is considered
among the best solo pianists of the
Music Club. Mr.. Jacohsen's recent per-
formances before the Music Club have
proved a revelation to those who heard
him, and who had no idea that a
violinist of such ability was here, and
Mr. Guffdieda is well known, having
played at Conida's during the past two
summers. 1t has not yet been decid-
ed just when the concerts will com
mence, but the trio have already com
menced rehearsals in preparation Of
the programmes they will give, which
will be of a high class and standard.

party went into bankruptcy, so far as
brains is concerned
Representative Hardwick of Georgia,
one of the baby members of the House,
was recently pressed into service to
do messenger duty for one of the read
Ing clerks at the Speakers desk.
Being a new member of extremely
youthful appearance the reading clerk
called to the youth standing near him
and said
Run and get that paper lying upon
Gen. Grosvenor's desk
Always obliging and courteous, Rep
resentative Hardwick proceeded to per-
form the errand, and delivered the
desired paper to the reading clerk.
Later in the day. during a general
debate on a money bill, the Speaker
announced:
The Chair recognizes the gentle
man from Georgia"
To the surprise and modification Of
the reading clerk, Representative
Hardwick, the beardless boy, who had
performed messenger duty a short
time previous, arose and delivered
long speech on the race problem in
the South.
Mr.. Hardwick is probably uncon-
scious up to the present time that the
reading clerk mistook him for a page.
Representative Adamson of Georgia
Is discouraged and disguised at the
lack of discipline and party organiza-
ton in the Democratic ranks. He
blames Cleveland and Bryan for this
doleful condition of affairs. In giving
expression to his views on the political
mixup in the Democratic party Judge
Adamson said
II have read all of Cleveland's pro-
nunciomentos and 1 have waded
through most OF Bryan's harangues,
but have never been able to discover
that they are willing to support any,
body but themselves for the presiden-
tial nomination"
Senator Newlands of Nevada, who
has been suggested among the vice
presidential possibilities on the Demo-
cratic ticket takes a very respondent
view of the outlook for Democratic
success in the coming campaign. In
commenting upon the lack of party
organization and party harmony, Sena-
tor Newlands said:
IF we are going to adapt every
Republican suggestion and support
every Republican policy, we may as
well throw up the sponge and move
to make it unanimous for Roosevelt
and the Republican principles.
Senator Tillman and Senator Cor
man were discussing the case of DIR.
Crum, who has been nominated for
collector of the port of Charleston.
In the face of a favorable report on
the Crum nomination by the Commit
tee on Commerce, Senator Ttlman
proposes to make a last ditch fight
against the confirmation of the negro
collector, who, by the way, has just
been selected as one of the four dele
gates at large to the Republican con-
vention from the state of South Caro-
lima. After listening to Senator Till
mans programme for fighting the
Crum nomination, Senator German re-
piled:
I'VE have had no success in getting
together on the Panama canal ques-
, ton, but we may be able to get to-
gettSsr on the negro QUESTION Go
ahead with your fight, / am with you.
1t may be that on the race issue you
may be the political Moses which will

which we may unite"

Senator Hoar, the venerable states
man and philosopher from Massachu-
sets, would hardly be accused of be-
ing a CRATER" 1t seems. however,
that after forty years experience in
Congress he has caught the extrava-
CANT fever, which is now raging in
Congress. This estimate of the distin-
guished Senator is based on the follow
ing incident which occurred in the
Senate a few days ago.
The first print of the appropriation
bill, providing for the expenses of the
legislative, executive and judicial
branches of the government, was plac-
ed on each senator's desk. The first
item on the front page of the bill pro-
vides for the salaries of senators. 1t
reads as follows:
For the compensation of senators.
$450, O0O."
Senator Hoar picked a copy of the
bill off his desk and turning to Sem
ator Hansbrough, sitting next him,
said:
Brother Hansbrough, 1 see by this
bill that $450,0O0 is provided for the
compensation of senators. Now" add

Representative Gibson of Tennessee
| who claims to be the best Shakespear-

his own of employing Shakespearian
| quotations to express himself whenever
| an opportunity is offered.
Had the Tennessee statesman been

| diminutive in size he might have de-
veloped into a great tragedian on
theatrical stage.

| ference with the administration lead

pending before the Senate.
Mr.. Gibson displayed his feeling at
being kept waiting, In various ways,
and finally he sat down to the writing
table in the waiting room and dashed
off the following:
Il wasted time, and now doth time
waste me;
| For now hath time made me his

Hand this to the President when he
is at leisure" said Mr.. Gibson to the
doorkeeper as he dashed out of the
executive Office to catch the first car

New York, who aspires to succeed

the Republican party, of which he Is
an ambitious member.
During a recent visit to Washing
ton he was deploring the fact that
there has been recently a pronounced

many of the present leaders of his
