SEVEN REMARKABLE SENATOR'S
In the Group Is the Man Who Fid-
died His Way into the Senate

WASHINGTON, Jan. 29.-In the
last row of seats on the democratic
side of the senate chamber sit seven
men who are, in many ways, the
most remarkable who ever wore a
toga. There is Gore of Oklahoma, the
first totally blind senator, and his
colleague, Owen, descendant of
Cherokee Indian chiefs. There is the
youngest senator, Bryan of Florida,
and the oldest, Whyte of Maryland,
with a half century between them,
although they sit side by side. There
is Fiddling Bob" Taylor of Tonnes
see, who fiddled his way into the
senate, and Bankhead of Alabama,
who ran for the house and landed
in his present august position. Last,
but not least, among that illustrious
seven, is Jefferson Davis of Arkan-
sas, sworn foe of the "plutes" and
the democratic Demosthenes of the
most maligned state of the union.

A Man 20 Be Enyied

DO you know" remarked a visitor
to Broadway hosiery. I'm always
inclined to envy the clerk In hotel
like this. He is always well groomed
and smiling. has a wider acquaintance
among the wealthy or well to do than
| can ever hope TO have and IS always
so aggressiyely at peace with the world
and himself; also he wears. more of
ten than not diamond scarfpin or
ring which is certainly beyond me.
It's pretty comfortG bic berth
Several hours later the hotel clerk
reached for his coat and hat AS hf
left the Office he turned to a comrade:
Say. Ned. can you let me have $40
till the first? Rent due at home tomor-
row, and I'm shy. Doctors bills hit
me pretty hard this month. and don /
want to lie awake tonight il can help
it."-New York Globe.
