SAT IN THE SENATE.
An Outsider Who lnnocently Made
Himself at Home

An Outsider Who lnnocently Made
Himself at Home.
The American people once elected
tailor to the presidency, and doubt
less many manipulators of the shears
and goose have sat in the seats of the
mighty by election, but only once did
a tailor make himself at home on the
floor of the United States senate when
he had no constituency to represent.
The tailor was Hermann Moritz
Riedel of Philadelphia, who visited
Washington in April, 1868, to attend
the exciting scenes during the i'm
parchment proceedings against An
drew johnson, fellow craftsman.
And this is the account Of how he
witnessed these proceedings as pub
lished in the Washington Republican
of that day:
IA good looking Teutonic friend OF
ours day or two since made an ear
nest appeal to our Muggins for tick
ct to the senate to listen to what was
trial. Muggins. as is his wont, in the
kindness of his soul consented to fur
nish Teuton with the talismanic paste
board which effects the open sesame to
the senate chamber and also assured
our friend that he would accompany
him to the gallery and find him an
eligible seat Muggins and Teuton
started to work their way in, but Mug
gins was detained outside of the door
for few moments. and our German
friend went on and passed the vigilant
sentinels at the outer door and went
| directly to the entrance Of the senate
chamber and was admitted by the
gentlemanly ushers under the belief
probably that be was a member of
congress and passed through the vesti-
bule and took his seat in the first va
cant chair and there remained during
| the entire session in the confident be-
! lief that be was entitled to the seat"
The descendants of Hermann Riedel
are living in Washington now. The
| tailor, who was top notcher'' at his
trade. according to all accounts, died
, in 1877. having declined pension after
serving as marine during the civil
Washington Post.

UNFORTUNATES.

O.. NJ. Lewis in Houston Post.)
What is the news from Holland?
What is the news from Spain?
is anarchy triumphant?
Are the Moors loose again?
And how are things in Persia?
Lord make the outlook glad
For every poor unfortunate,
Each little royal tad.
A baby rules in China,
On Persia's rocking throne
The red throne of Cambysees-
a wee boy sits alone.
And wishes men would let him
The sceptre throw away
And run and find his mother,
Or go outdoors and play.
What are the old thrones good for?
What are they good for, say,
When they snatch up the babies
And take them from their play,
The little bits o babies
Who have no wish to rule,
Who'd rather splash barefooted
In any wayside pool?
The babes are the real rulers
OF every land on earth.
The babes are the real riches
The things of greatest worth
In all the world of riches,
In all the world of men,
o, take The royal babies
And turn them loose again.
If ! were King Alfonso,
I'd take my babies three,
And sail like old Columbus
Across the briny sea,
And bring them safe to Texas,
And Keep them there, | would:
Give my throne for my babies
And still be to the good.

LAW PROTECTS
HOUSE BUILDERS

Prospective home builders will
no doubt approve the new law
which puts a check on dishonest
contractors in the matter of the
payment of their bills on the com
pletion of a job. There is said to
be much need for this law In Spo
kane.
The law requires that every lum
Der company and vendor Of mate
rails for house building must send
the owner of new house or any
other building a duplicate bill OF
every order placed by the con
tractor for the materials for such
house or building, giving the own
er of the building an opportunity
thereby to see that all material
bills are paid before making a fina
settlement. No liens are valiC
where a bill for the materials filed
for has not been previously sent tc
the owner of the property.

SUICIDE CRIME
BY NEW CODE

Many and in some instances rad
ical changes in the code of the
state of Washington will take
place tomorrow morning, when
the acts Of the legislature Of 1909
will take effect.
The new laws are so numerous
and cover so wide a field that ev-
cry line of activity will feel their
effect. Probably the most i'm
portant phase of the new statutes,
as 1t affects a greater number of
people, Is the new criminal code.
This code defines new offenses and
provides new ways and new pen
alties in dealing with old ones.
One of the most important
points in the criminal code is the
assistance 1t gives police officers
in handling the numerous petty of.
tenders that frequent the slum
districts in the larger cities. A
new vagrancy provision is pro-
vided under which the police can
arrest an offender for almost any
sort of crime. 1t will give the
police a chance to deal with sus-
picious characters at times when
such crimes as robberies and hold
ups become epidemic, as a dragnet
can be thrown out and almost ev.
cry man who cannot give a good
account of himself picked up.
The code gives the presiding
Judge in a murder trial the option
of inflicting the death penalty or
giving a life sentence for a con.
viction for murder In the first de-
gree. A special offense punishable
by severe penalty is made of a
train holdup, whenever one is
caught.
A new clause appears on the
subject of false swearing In
court, which while not so severe
as perjury is calculated to instill
terror into the hearts of those not
inclined to tell the truth in Grim
inal matters.
Under the new criminal code
giving or receiving tips is made a
misdemeanor, and the possession
of cigarets or cigaret materials is
also placed under the ban. To at
tempt suicide is a felony under the
code and q suicide pact is still
greater crime.
