Mr.. Maher's resemblance to the presi-
dent Is striking when in repose, but
when he speaks or smiles he is obliged
to acknowledge that owing either to
the subduing atmosphere of the court
or to the lack of dental qualifications,
he cannot vie with the chief executive
at the other end Of the avenue.
The resemblance of Senators Aldrich
and Foraker is also striking, although
the distinguished senator from Rhode
Island plays the role Of a reticent gen.
eral maneuvering his forces on the
floor of the senate, while the senator
from Ohio acts the more striking part
of a dashing officer with standard up

the distribution Of forces. If Mr..
Foraker's well-covered head were
matched by the hirsute adornment Of
Mr.. Aldrich the resemblance would
be complete. But standing side by
side they appear as brothers and their
similarity is frequently commented

mented upon. There are three men
widely known whose similarity of

semblance of the president to his dis
tinguished secretary Of the navy and
attorney general, Mr.. Moody, has al

now and then of humorous mistakes.
Now that Mr.. Moody has been ele-

supreme court of the United States,
he has come across another double

When Justice Moody first met Mr..

No other senator since the days of the
acrid AMI dazzling ingalls, has been
able 70 draw such crowds as he.
Yet Senator Tillman isn't a great
orator. In the first place, his voice is
a bit shrill and unpleasant, until he
gets warmed up to the shouting point,
and then it takes on deeper and
more sonorous timbre.
Again, he speaks somewhat discon-
nectedly, sometimes losing the thread
of his argument altogether. But, like
a creek or river diverted from its path,
he always gets back to the main bed
of his progress in time.
He sometimes makes his sentences
so long that he has to pull up short
and begin again. When he reads from
a prepared manuscript-this is not
often-the monotony Of his delivery
is tiresome.
When he is making a speech from
data scattered about his desk he has
prodigious difficulty in finding his ref
