According to later reports the Hun garian dinner about which so much has been written was a sort of continuous performance, with number of en- cores. The President made the prIn- cipal speech, but he was not the whole thing by a good deal. After he left the hall we are told that District At torney Jerome made a speech that eaus- ed a sensation. He said he loved Roosevelt the man and hated Roose- welt the statesman, sailed into Con- gressman sulEer, declared the United States Senate ought to be @ rich mans club. and otherwise made things inter- esting. Then he left the hall and Abe Gruber took the floor and lambasted Jerome from head to heels. and we are told that the meeting came near end= ing in a row. It was a monkey-and- parrot time, it seems.

KILLED HIM AT LAST.

The old and popular remedy for snake bites, which so many people look on as infalIible, seems to have some limita- tions. Thus a Missouri editor tells of a man who was bitten thirty years ago in Kentucky by a rattler, but who was saved by the prompt use of whiskey, and entirely recovered. Adhering to the prevalent customs of the country he renewed the remedy every day until a short time ago when his wife per- suaded him to sign a temperance pledge. and in a short while he died of snake bite As the newspaper puts 1t, "as long as he had taken whiskey daily, the liquor had counteraeted the effect of the poison in the colonel's blood. but when he signed the pledge and abandoned his daily toddy, the poison had full sway, and in a, short time the wound began to swell and inflan1e. The poison penetrated his system, affecting the action of the heart and thirty years after the snake bit him Colonel Baldwin died in all the agonies of a man who had been snakebitten only a few hours before."
 That, we respectfully submit. is an important addition to our stock of med ical knowledge, and also adds some- thing to our stock of information about snakes, It shows, too. how a man may suffer relapse by too early and sud- den disuse of remedy. If that Ken tuclxian had been asked if he thought himself in any danger from that an- cient snake-bite, he would have laughed at the question; nevertheless. if a phy- sioian had assured him that he would be in danger from that old bite when ever he but off his daily supply of the remedy. all the kings horses could not have dragged a temperance pledge out of him. The poor man lost his life because of not knowing how long he should keep his remedy going.

Campaign for Mayor.

"I guess our campaign for Mayor will warm up in few weeks" said a city ofhcial yesterday. Tt seems to me that very little personal interest ia be- ing taken thus far in either of the three candidates.
 Tt Is a long time to the primaries, 1" he continued, and I imagine that the candidates having announced rather early are willing to jog along, l1oIding their own until a few weeks before the election.

REMEMBER rHn DAY.

Once in each year we bring our selves to forget for a brief period some os Che hurry and rush and bustfe of the busy present and let our minds dwell on the meaning and significance of this one day of the year. We Americans are a practical people, given to the business of money making, to the many and varied pleasures of the times or to the ways and means of living, but with all our materialism we should spare little time to the name, the fame and the memory of George wash- ington.
 Poets have sung. authors have writ ten and orators spoken of his many virtues and high qualities. his rigid honesty. his enduring patriotism and his Intense devotion to the cause of American liberty and independence, but none of them can overrate him and his services Whether without him the Ameriean colonies would have achieved their Independence is a question about which there may be doubt, but there is no doubt of the fact that he set be- fore the world an example of courage and constancy that has rarely been equalled. There may have been in the struggling colonies a man who would have brought the struggle to success ful termination earlier than he did but we doubt 1t. On the other hand, any other man in our armies might have made total failure and left the peo- pie in worse condition than they were at the outset.
 Nothing but infinite wisdom can tell what might have been. No finite mind car undertake to say that some other course or some other leader would have been better. We know what was done, what was endured and what was accomplished. Impartial history has fixed Washington's place high up among the list of great and good men and 1t will remain there. Envy, cal- umny nor malice can pull him down nor take one leaf from the chaplet which a grateful people wound about his brow. In this country. in this Union for which he suffered and en- dured so mueh-eAis land where, in the language of Southey,

HELD ON MURDER CHARGE.
State Senator Farnu1n, of Chicago,
Arrested for Completely in
Killing Of Kopf.

Chicago, Dec. 7.-State Senator
Frank G. Farnum, representing the
Nineteenth district in the upper house
OF the Illinois general assembly, was
arrested Tuesday afternoon and locked
all night in cell in the Warren ave-
nue. police station, Wednesday, he was
released under $4,000 bonds. The
charge brought against Farnum by the
city police is that of murder. Trans
lated, the accusation is that of being
accessory before the fact to the fatal
stabbing of County Commissioner
john V. Kopf eight days ago. George
,..-l Roberts, a clerk at the republican
ward election in the Thirteenth ward,
is held for the actual stabbing, which
resulted in the commissioners sudden
death on Sunday. The arrest of Sen
ator Farnum followed a complete con-
fession made by Thomas Wood, ne
gro follower of the Deneen leader.
Wood was placed in the sWeatbox
Tuesday afternoon. Before he left it
he had told story which implicated
Senator Farnum in a plot to steal the
ballot box used at the Thirteenth
ward club election. 1t was the at
tempt to carry out this plot which
caused the death of Kopf.

WILL GO TO SENATE.
Gov. La Toilette Announces Decision
as to His Future-Will Delay
Taking His Seat.

Madison, Wis, Dec. 6.-After reading
his message to the legislature, Gov.
La Toilette made a statement that he
would accept the United States sens
tOrship, to which he was elected by
the legislature at the last session. He
stated that during this special session
or at least at its close he would resign
as governor and accept the commits
sion as United States senator.
He then made short statement de-
claring that certain fixed obligations
bound him to continue as governor, as
laws involving millions Of dollars were
being challenged in the courts, and
legislation vital to the state was pend
ing. He could not offer more than a
qualified acceptance. The close of the
session found the litigation undecided,
he said, and the new laws untried.
Adverse decisions in the circuit court
might call promptly for curative legis-
lation, and the administration Of new
laws might disclose defects requiring
immediate remedies. Every reason
made it his plain duty to await the
circuit court decision and the contest
over the new laws. Time entirely JUS
titled this course, he said. The atti-
tude Of the railroads in the contesting
OF every assessment of taxes as soon
as made, the construction which r1odi-
tlcations Of this law seem to demand.
the amendment needed for the better
administration of the railway rate
law, the amendments Of the primary
election law, and the other important
matters for the consideration of the
legislature were all required to round
the work of the last and preceding ses-
sions of the legislature.

CAREER ENDED BY DEATH.
Hemorrhage Following Pulling Of
Teeth Causes Demise of Senator
Mitchell, of Oregon.

Portland, Ore, Dec. 9.-United
States Senator John H. Mitchell died
at the Good Samaritan hospital, in this
city, at l1:40 o'clock Friday afternoons
death resulting from complications
which followed the removal of four
teeth at a dental Office Thursday
morning. A hemorrhage Of unusual
severity followed the removal of the
teeth and, despite the application Of
the most powerful styptics known to
dental science, the flow of blood could
not be stayed. Physicians were sum-
moned to the dental Office, but the
combined scientific knowledge of the
dentists and physicians could not stop
the flow of blood. The senator's con-
dftion soon became alarming and he
was removed to the hospital where
four physicians attempted to stop the
flow Of blood. but with little success.
Senator Mitchell had long been a suf
ferer from diabetes and other vitiating
diseases and. in his weakened physical
condition, rapidly succumbed to in
evitable weakness following such vio-
lent hemorrhages and lapsed into a
state of semi-consciousness early in
the evening from which he never re-
covered.
Senator Mitchell had for many years
been leading figure in Oregon, and it
was only when his connection in
conspiracy to defraud the govern
ment of it's public domain was made
manifest by his conviction in the fed
eral court, that he lost the political
influence which he had held for q
greater part of half century. From
his SEVENTEEN birthday, June %, last,
the day on which his guilt was de-
creed, Senator Mitchell has rapidly
declined.
