Senator were to speak, and the people OF five
Cou.ties were there to hear
Everything was waiting. when a boy gal
Hoped up with a telegram, saying that the
Senators had missed the train.
Hoge Tyler, a farmer and one of the leaders
in arranging the festivity, but with no political
experience or aspirations, was the only pos
sible one in sight to fill the vacancy. He
rushed to the carriage where his wife and
Mrs Pickett. wife of the General were sitting,
and said: do tell me something to say!'
Mrs Pickett replied: Begin this way: /
remind myself of the boy in the Sunday-school
class prepared for examination, when each
was taught the answer he must give. After
roll-call the boy at the head of the class was
taken suddenly i'll and went home. The first
question was: "Who made you?" The second
boy replied: "Of the dust of the earth. - No,
mol" said the Bishop, " God made you.'-'' No
sir" the boy replied, "the one God made
has gone home sick. and | am of the dust of
the earth" Now the men God made have
missed the train and you will have to listen
to the dust of the earth. -
The incpient orator followed instructions,
creating such enthusiasm that day that it
landed him in the Governors chair at the next
election.

WANTED TO GET RID OF HIM

A NUMBER of politicians in Washington
n were once discussing the good and bad
points of various statesmen with reference to
their attitude toward their friends and enemies,
when Senator kean reminded of an in
stance in the career of the late Senator Sewell
of New Jersey.
1t appears that Sewell had been a generous
friend and an equally good hater, as was evil
denced by his treatment of Colonel Scovel,
who it seems had dared to dispute Sewell's
supremacy in Jersey politics. At one time
Scovel imagined he had made his peace with
Sewell. and ventured to ask favor of his old
enemy-something in the way of a pass to
Chicago The pass came to him by return mail.
The next day, at the offices of the railroad
of which the Senator was an officer Scovel
thanked him for the courtesy; but he did
so he called attention to the fact that there
was no provision made in the pass for the re-
turn trip east Probably an inadvertence
on the part of the clerk that made it out"
he observed.
Clerk nothing" roared Sewel IN have
you know, Scovel, that | myself filled out that
pass I'm willing to send you to Chicago,
but I'll be hanged if I'll help you to get back
to Iersey!"

HOW THEY WENT TO WASHINGTON

CENATOR CARMACK told this story the
~ other night:
They were try lg to make campaign stock of
the lack of attention which Southerners re-
Ceived from the administration, to influence
Colored votes. 1t was a kind of free-to-all,
where a speaker had just told the story of
the Prodigal Son, rousing considerable feeling
in the audience as he closed with the words:
But how are we treated in Washington?
Have they killed for us the fatted calf? No!'
a colored man instantly replied: "De

TOM OCHILTREE's CARRIAGE

NICE-PRESIDENT HOBART was giving
a little dinner to a few men, to which
Tom Ochiltree was invited. But this time
Tom had been lunching somewhere and was
already maudlin beyond the dignity of
Hobart's table.
The Vice-President had his carriage brought,
and after the soup succeeded in quietly getting
Tom into the hall, into his overcoat and out
of the front door. At the top of the steps
he laid his hand on his guests shoulder, saying
Go down the steps carefully, Tom, then
on to the curb You will see two carriages
waiting there. Take the first one, Tom, for
the other one isn't there"

HOUSE VERSUS SENATE

MANY of the old-tiners in the House of
Iva Representatives are extremely opposed
to the notion generally held among laymen
that the Senate is the whole thing Among
these is Uncle Joe" Cannon, who is
ready to take up the cudgels in behalf of the
House as against the upper body.
Il remember Conger of Michigan" says
Cannon. He had been a powerful man in
the House; but when they sent him to the
Senate he disappeared, vanished. Some one
was talking to Tom Reed about Conger's case.
Curious, isn't it? asked he, how little Conger
amounts to in the Senate?'

views of the means whereby mortal man could

HOW TO GET 1T PRINTED

| Asst winter a great deal of interest was
l. evinced by the public in a new treaty
with one of the European powers. Some one
asked Senator Morgan why the Committee on
Foreign Relations of the Senate had enjoined
secrecy on the text of the treaty, when the COM
plete text was printed in the morning papers.
The Senator smiled enigmatically. Il

the injunction of secrecy was placed upon
the treaty. My friends of the Foreign Rela-
tons Committee evidently were well aware
that if they made it public not paper in the
country would print the full text"
