Mr.. Moruan's Hair.

Several years ago a well known law.
yer named G. E. Morgan represented
Providence in the Rhode Island legis-
lature. Mr.. Morgan had very red hair.
During the discussion of some bah
Mr.. Morgan had tilt with a country
legislator, during which he declared
that he was not going to have any
man with hayseed in his hair come
to Providence and try to teach him
how to make laws. The countryman
arose and said: "Mr. Speaker. In
reply to the gentleman from Provi-
dence, will say that, while I may
have hayseed in my hair, thank hea.
ven that it isn't red-top."
