CANNON'S BIRTHDAY PARTY
Speaker Is HonOred by the House Of
Representatives, and Says
1t Is a Hummer.

Uncle Joe Cannons SEVENTEEN birth
day party, recently rendered to him
by the entire membership Of the
house at the Arlington hotel, in Wash
ington, was, in the language Of the
guest, "a hummer" From 9 until mid
night there was scarcely a moment
when the speakers hand was not be-
ing wrung by some well wisher, says
a Washington special dispatch to the
New York Times.
Justice Day of the supreme court
added to his congratulations his salts
faction that both were Presbyterians.
YES" declared Uncle Joe, with the
Lord, the Presbyterians and the SUI
preme court on my side, who could
prevail against me|
Uncle Joe was born in North Caro-
lima in 1886. One of the Old North
State we'll wishers recalled the fact
and declared that the folks down there
were proud Of him.
Much obliged" said Uncle Joe, ''but
speaking of being born down in North
Carolina, one of the reasons | have
lived happily and have kept good
health is that l haven't been troubled
much by ancestors or govt"
So with inexhaustible anecdote, with
cism and philosophy, the speaker en-
tered into the spirit of what the mem
bers of the house call reception and
Uncle Joe called party. Everybody
who is anybody was there. The presi-
dent hadn't a rival in the place for
Democratic mixing, and that In the
face of the fact that Edwin Warfield.
governor of Maryland, was there.
In the course of the evening Uncle
Joe promised about 1857 new post
offices, 33,287 new custom houses, 375
speeches, statehood to Alaska, New
Zealand and the Sandwich Islands, In
dependence for the Philippines, third
term to Roosevelt and a place on the
supreme bench and in the senate to 977
individuals. On his own. behalf he
consented to celebrate a total Of 1876
more birthdays; he accepted 2,49l
nominations for the presidency and
consented to serve as speaker until
about the middle of the twenty-hrst
century.
Presently his hand began to ache IN
der the hard usage. John Sharp VIII
uams detected him in the act of mas
saying his palm on the leg of his
breaches.
Here" said Williams. "shake this
way. See, 1 don't let you grab my fin
gers. l grab yours first. If you do that
and give a little squeeze, they can't
squeeze you"
Uncle Joe practiced the new idea
with Williams. Finally he got the idea.
williams" he fervently declared,
"you have saved 3,698 pension bills
that thought 1 never would be able
to sign"
