Retiring MissisSippian.
After discussing the subject with some
of his colleagues. Senator Gore. of Okla
homa, decided a few days ago that il
would oe a fine thing for the members of
the Senate to present former Senator
Gordon, of Mississippi. with a handsome
testimonial to take with him to his home
in Pontotoc, as a reminder Of his service
in the Senate.
Every one with whom the hind Senator
discussed the subject thought well Of it..
so on Tuesday he gave a subscription
list TO one Of the pages for circulation
among the Senator's. Some fifteen men,
bers of the Senate subscribed TO the testi-
monial. most of them making liberal con-
tributions but Senator Lodge, of Massa-
chusetts, brought the movement to a
sudden termination. He entered his pro-
test with the Sergeant-at-arms. taking
the position that the whole procedure
was undlgnihed and that the employment
of pages for such a purpose was without
precedent
As a result OF the protest the page was
required TO return the contributions to
the Senators who made them.

MANIA FOR STATUES
IN PARIS GETS BLOW

Paris.-Paris Is literally provided
with statues of its great men. and
otherwise, and in later years any num-

to recent celebrities, so much so that
a certain number of its citizens, feel

have a monument erected to them
selves, are crying out against the
abuse of too many monuments to
others. We see stone statues repre-
senting progress in ballooning and in
automobiling, and 1 believe there is
already statute representing the gi-
ant advances of aviation.
Object Claimed Failure.
Some on has had the idea of max

produced on the popular mind by the
heroic figures in stone, and the an

have been equally startling. Diderot

for erecting statues, as he describes

He proposes, therefore, to exile all
existing statues to the limbo of the
Qualifications, and has laid the scheme
before the art commission.
