There is another factor, however,
the hotel men believe. This is the
fact that the meats and other dishes
served at these counters are common
ly cooked in plain American fashion,
and many men whose palates are
wearied by the foreign dishes served
to them by the hotel chefs or by
their own Gordon bleu at home are
glad to get ham American style with

The evolution of the free lunch,

proprietors over loo 600 year in
New York city alone, has brought
about reversal in caste for all free
lunChers. Not many years ago the
free lunch was to be found only in

platters, was eaten with commercial

Other Professions of Our Congressman

The two senators from South Caro-
lima confess that they are farmers,
though that is more than anybody else
in the senate will admit. These are
Senators Latimer and Tillman. Thus
the latter remains loyal to his pitch
fork Two are merchants, Aldrich and
Perkins. Buckley of Connecticut says
insurance is his business. Lodge
claims literature as a profession, and
Plat is labeled, boldly enough. "Presi-
dent of Express Company" Warren OF
Wyoming is a stock raiser, Stephenson
of Wisconsin a lumberman, Elkins or
West Virginia miner, and Hans
brough of North Dakota admits to an
editorship.
There are 13 farmers in the house,
including J. Adam Bede; nine manu-
facturers, four merchants, four insur-
ance men, seven real estate dealers
and as many lumbermen. There are
also seven editors. There are five
journalists, four miners and three pub
fishers. There were two planters, be-
cause John Sharpe Williams was one
before he graduated to the upper
house There is one mining engineer,
one railroad constructor, one fruit
grower, trustee" (probably the only
professional one in eXistence), build
er, an everyday contractor one lone
capitalist, miller, a stock raiser,
surveyor and tanner. One says his
occupation is railroad and another
says his is stone" There are two
nurserymen and four physicians, be-
sides Hobson, who is put down as
naval constructor" and Champ Clark,
who keeps on trying to prove that he
is a lecturer.
How much are they worth in money,
these lawyers and public officials and
merchants and insurance n.sn AID
farmers, who serve their country At
Washington?
Every third man in the senate Is
worth a million or more. There are
80 millionaires in the senate and IA
in the house. Thirty-two senators nre
worth, together, $210,500,000 The IA
house millionaires are worth $50, 3,000,-
600. Retired" Senator Guggenhem is
worth about $60,000,000. Lumber
man" Stephenson is worth 100000 900,
Express President Platt receives $780,
600 a year in salary alone. Merchant"
Aldrich is worth $12,000,000.
Do they all draw salary and every
cent of perquisites they can get. these
46 millionaires who are worth the stu
pendous sum of $293, 800 900?
The answer is, they do.

ever before from the capitol guides,
Even the oldtimers in Washington
who regarded 1t as green to listen

And the criticism seems justified in

FLEET TO ENJOY
1.-THE MASCOT :"

Honolulu has had much to do of
late in the musical and theatrical
line. including the recent concert of
Madam Arral. but no announcement
of playhouse material has caused
such pleasure as the repetition of
the Mascot" When this produc-
ton was presented a few months ago
by an all-star cast, so to speak, of
Honolulu's amateurs, the music-lov-
ing public of Honolulu were given a
treat long to be remembered as one
of their strongest productions, and it
has been upon the request of many OF
the present company's admirers that
Mr. Herzer has been induced to hold
the presentation over till Fleet week.
Costumes of splendor such AS add
ed materially to the production, have
been retained at this end awaiting
the coming performances, and while
many new faces and figures will
grace the same, 1t may be said, judg.
ing from last nights rehearsal, that
the Mascot" is more alive today
than ever. Many new stunts of local
type have been added. including a
few dashing ones by Sonny Cunha.
Knowing, as Mr.. Herzer does, that
his audience this time will be one of
critics only. he has put an extra eff
fort into his production, to eliminate
any shades of the amateur. and
when the boys of Uncle Sans great
Fleet venture to the Opera House ON
the 18th they will get every cent OF
their moneys worth.
During the previous running of
the Mascot" the Opera House drew
three good houses, and 1t is safe to
say the visitors will find opera well
up in the list OF the entertainment of
the sailor boys. Mrs. Lawrence
Crook will appear as Bettina (the
mascot, with such well-known sup
porters as Hugo Herzer, M. II. Webb,
Sonny Cunha, Agnes Herzer, and Jas.
ID. Dougherty.
