The feeling between Senators Spoon

without precedent. Senator Gallingsr
and Senator Chandler for years repre-
sented New Hampshire together in the
senate and never exchanged greetings.
The feud between Senator Tillman and
his colleague, Senator McLaurin, be-
came so intense that they came to blows
several years ago on the floor of the
senate. An intense personal feeling
arose between Senator Wellington and

served in the senate together from

BISHOP EDSALL SPOKE "
AT GETHSEMANE CATHEDRAL

Bishop Edsall, now of Minnesota,
preached forceful sermon on indi-
vidual responsibility, to large con-
grsgation which greeted him at Geth-
semane cathedral, yesterday morning,
he being in the city for a short visit.
Arise, shine for thy light is come,
Is. tx, /, was his text. He said the
season OF Epiphany teaches the respon-
sibility that comes to US, as individual
men and women, because of the light
which has come to us. The especial
responsibility is the service to God and
our fsllown1en. Think first of the
service in the industrial and CONNER
cial world. In the development Of the
greater temptations to the individual
la corresponding ,lessening of individ-
nal responsibility. Men are tempted,
as officers of gigantic corporations to
do what they would never think OF do
ing as individuals. What we need in
this country today is the growth of an
atmosphere of appreciation, the dignity
and glory of tinsslish service, disinter-
ested service to, Our fellowmen. H.. .
In the political world, he said, there
is a great need of an atmosphere OF re-
sponsibility Of service. 1t is however
gratifying to find, in these days, men
rising up with. the spirit OF service. to
their fellowmen. Continually are we
finding examples of unselfish service
/ He cited the influences inspired by the
present head of the nation, Jerome oi
New York and several governors oi
states. In the legislative departments
there is. a crying need of that spirit lr

shelter, Next day the captain OF the
vessel rugged up life boat with sail
and taking six OF the crew launched
forth, sailing IN the direction OF Cape
Horn, hoping to hail some passing
vessel, but storm swept over the
island the following day, and it is sup.
posed that they were caught in the
squall and lost, for they were never
heard of Afterwards. Those left on
the island subsisted on what little
stores and water they saved from the
ship, aud on gull's eggs aud such shell
iish as they conld gather. They were
on the island SO days, and about half
their number died from exposure aud
insufficient food. When hope had
almost forsakcn the survivors, the sails
