NOTES FROM THE LEGISLATURE.
From the action of the senate clock
it is quite evident that there must be a
nest of mice in It. The special attention
Of one of the jaRitors is needed to keep
pushing the hands of the clock around
so that they will register something like
the hour Of the day.
Senator Porter, of Crawford. is con-
coded to be quite the most distinguished
member of the upper house. A
straw vote will have to be taken toj
decide who the handsomest senator is. /
Rather enormous silk badges or va
riety of colors all the way from pale
green to a deep red are worn conspicu- |
0usly on the left breasts of the en-
oloyes of the senate from the sergeant
alarms down to the pages. Thesei
badges are so large and some of the |
pages so diminutive that at a distancel
It frequently looks as though big |
piece of silk was floating around |
through the air ALI ct its own accord |
The badges are efaborately trimmed |
with silver tasselss and on them in huge |
etters of gold are the names of the |
positions held by the wearers. When |
4 half dozen of the employees get to- |
yether one cannot help thinking that |
he senate chamber is the scene of /
ball and that the bebadged en- |
oloyes are the floor managers and COM
nittees getting things ready for the |
grand march. -r7
