Through lengthy account which
appeared in the Central Christian
Advocate Of Feb. 10th the news Of
the death of Rev. James Walter
Waugh was conveyed to his brother,
John A. Waugh in this city. The
death occurred Jan. 22nd at Morada-
bad, India, after several months III
ness following stroke Of paralysis
The news was cabled TO the Advocate
and 1t will probably be q week longer
before letters from the wife and
daughter will convey the details to
the relatives In this country. Rev
Waugh was a member of the South
ern Illinois Conference of the Meth
odist Episcopal church and left this
country in April, 1859, for India,
where he has spent his life as mis-
sonary in different localities in that
, country. He was married twice and
has children living in the country to
which he devoted his ministerial life.
His wife also survives him and will
probably remain in that country as
she was missionary there before
their marriage, Rev. Waugh was
well liked and will be remembered by
many of our older citizens. This ends
noble character.

count at the Bank.

Washington.--The name "Million-
aires Club" for the United States SEN
ate is misnomer The chief quail
fication for admittance to that body
Is no longer bank account running
into seven or eight figures. 1t is get
ting to be poor mans club. For
several years 1t has been the custom
to refer to the senate in satirical
terms as an exclusive retreat reserved
for millionaires.
How much money has he?" was
the first question Washingtonians
asked each other when a new man
came In with senatorial credentials in
his hand. He was expected to build
or rent palace in the fashionable
Northwest, stock stable with blood
ed animals, entertain like prince at
costly dinners and other entertain
ments and drop into the senate occa-
sionally
If these Croesuses were little shy
on statesmanship. knew nothing about
our foreign relations and the theory
of finance, no fault was found with
them. So long as they had made
their pile and were willing to let some
of 1t go, they were deemed to have
qualified for membership in the mil
lionaires' club, and the folks were
willing to let It 90 at that.
Those we're the days Of such multi
millionaires as Clark of Montana, who
was supposed to be worth S25,000,000
was supposed to be worth $25,000.000
900; Mcmillan Of Michigan, with an
other $4,000 900; Dryden of New Jer-
sey, with 100000 or SO; Brice of
Ohio, $5,000,O00. and Proctor of ver-
mont, S3,0o0,000.
Then there were Is or 20 others
who had been 10 unfortunate in life
as to be able to accumulate a bare
million or 50. This lot included Cam
eron of Pennsylvania, Jones of Neva-
da, Stewart Of Nevada, Wolcott Of
Colorado and Hanna of Ohio.
In those days the dominant feature
OF the senate was the dollar mark,
and the roll call sounded like a Roose-
welt list OF rich malefactors. A SEN
ator would think nothing OF gobbling
up railroad system or two before 60
ing to work at the big building on
the hill, and before night his stock
operations might create panic In
Wall street.
Now, all this Is changed. A poor
man is no longer lonely in the United
States senate. He has plenty Of com
