successor is said to be clearly defined in
the case of Senator Quay, whose sue
cessor was not elected because of a dead
lock in the Pennsylvania assembly. After
the adjournment of the assembly Gov.
Stone appointed Senator Quay to sue
coed himself. The Senate refused, how
ever. to admit MIN, claiming that the
governor had no right to appoint if the
assembly had an opportunity to elect
The action of the Senate in Mr.. Quay's
case Is said to apply to the vacancy
created by Senator Whyte's death. The
assembly is In session and must elect

1t was assumed at first that State
Senator German would be a candidate to

elevation to the Senate two years hence
as successor to senator Rayner.
1t was learned last night, however, that
Mr.. German is not and will not be a

Wrote District Government.

It is an interesting fact that Senator
WHITE was the author of the present
system Of government of the District
Under the provisions of the concurrent
resolution of the two houses of Congress
in 1876 three senators and three members
of the House of Representatives were to
be appointed a joint select committee to
prepare a suitable form of government
for the District of Columbia" and $1,000
was appropriated by Congress to pay the
necessary expenses incident to the meet
ings Of the committee.
The senators selected were William Win
dom of Minnesota George E. Spencer Of
Alabama and William Pinckney Whyte Of
MARYLAND, and of the House OF Repre-
sentatives E. Hunton OF Virginia, Hester
Clymer of Pennsylvania and George w.
Hendee of Vermont. The committee APP
pointed a subcommittee. composed OF
Senator Whyte and Representative Hun
ton, to prepare the act Of Congress. Sem
ator Whyte Immediately set to work In
the preparation Of the act, with the cOun-
sci and conference Of Gen. Hunton He
wrote the bill and the report to Congress
of the work Of the committee. Subse-
ouently the act Of Congress under which
the District Of Columbia is now governed
became the law of the United States. IT
has stood the test Of criticism. Ex-
President Hayes, who visited many Euro
pean cities and investigated their forms
of government wrote to the Commission
ers that the scheme of government for
the District Of Columbia was far SUI
perior to any he had seen abroad.

FOR A STORK PARTY
PRETTY WAY TO ANNOUNCE
EXPECTED VISIT.
Unique Affair Described by Nine.
Merri-Appropriate Poem Read,
"The Song of the Red
Legged Stork."

Some time ago I attended a charm
ing luncheon at which the announce
ment of the stork's expected visit was
made in this pretty way:
1t was not embarrassing to the
guest of honor and was altogether q
unique affair The place cards were
sealed envelopes, bearing the guests
names. The hostess asked us not to
open them until the dessert course,
then to begin at her left, each one to
read the verse her envelope con-
tained the last to read was the lady
on the right Of the hostess and her
verse told the story.
l have the poem complete and give
it, as I have had SO many requests for
something just like it. 1t is called
1.-THE Song of the Red-Legged Stork,"
by Pauline G.. Bowie. If luncheon is
not given, the story may be read, and
the guests asked to determine whom
the stork has honored, or the hostess
may say: Mrs. So-and-So is the for
tunate one"
Where the skies are pale and the winds
blow cold,
Down where the gates of life, unfurled,
Let the souls pass through the throbbing
world.
Flew the red-legged storll
And he flew and flew
For ten score days and seventy more,
Till he reached the house of the open
door,
Where the angel of gifts stood waiting
near,
With dimples and smiles and glttering
tear.
Over white wastes of cleaning snow,
Over fair meadows whore buttercups
grow.
And fields where the red poppies sleep
lily nod
To the songs of the robins, sung to God
Flew the red-legged stork,'
And he sang as he flew:
winds, do not hinder me-Time is fleet:
Sun, do not burn me; withhold your heat;
1 carry a link loves chain TO complete,
