as one of his best reform schemes 1t
came through a storm of filibustering,
with neither side very anxious to pass
the bill which the Senate had passed
last week. When 1t came up in the
usual course, Sullivan. Democrat, of
Hudson, offered amendments making
the proposed commission elective in
stead of appointive and extending the
service to every county and city of the
State instead of keeping 1t confined to
the State government and cities of the
first class. Republican Leader Barber
said he did not see any great harm in
the amendments, and If there was to
be civil service at all he preferred to
see it reach over,all the counties and

statement the Southern Senator made.

acquaintances at nearby lake, hur-
ried into town and inserted notice in
an evening paper in which he stated
he had been grossly insuIted: that in
the South the way such things are ad-
justed is by the duel code.
Dolliver read the story in the news
paper, and met Tillman in the lobby of
the Otsego Hotel. A stormy scene was
the result, and it was only through the
efforts of bystanders that serious
trouble was averted. Senator polliver
said he was not fighting duels, and
Tillman branded him as coward for
not backing up his statements, and he
declared that the time would come
when he would square things with the
gentleman from Iowa.
Senator Dolliver left town last night
He was followed to the station by q
mob. and the police had difficulty in
getting him through the crowd in the
train sheds.
Senator Tillman remained in the
hotel walking back and forth in an ex-

CHRISTMAS
MEMORIES

If it were only for the Joy of
remembrance that shall one day
cheer the lonely beart of age, it
were we'll to make merry on
Christmas days. If hapIy an old
couple are left together to re-
fresh each others memories of
days long gone, it renews their
fading vitality to recall those I'M
speakabIe delightful hours of mys-
FERROUS preparation with their eli
makes of glad surprise. Smiles
return to the mothers trembling
lips and the father lays his hand
over the slender fingers lying on
the arm of his chair as they recall
those especially happy days that
are so we'll remembered. They
wonder if Tom is dressing a tree
for his little boys in his far away
home, or whether Mollie is filing
the stockings for the children they
have never seen,
If the yet more needy and crav-
ing heart of q widow sits by still
lonelier hearth, her thoughts have
the semblance of a rosary and
separate themselves into decades
linked together by some sacred
symbol of love and devotion. Not
alone her married years unroll
their steried pages, but sitting
dreaming by her silent fireside
she wanders back to her own
childhood those always well-re-
membered night of. enchantment
when she and her brothers and
sisters sat up in their small beds
and listened to every sound, and
were fascinated by the rustic of q
paper as their mother tip-toed
through the halls. Even now she
can hear again the jolly chuckle
half-smothered by a blanket will,
which her mischievous brother,
he who died at Gettysburg, tried
to laugh without being heard

these one can hear voice that is
