Anselm ]. McLaurin of Mississippi and
Martin y. Johnson Of North Dakota.
The method of procedure in both House
and Senate in case of a death is praCti-
caliy the same although they do differ in
a few minor pO nts. For instance il is
not an unprecedented thing for the re-
mains of deceased senator to be
brought into the Senate chamber and
formal funeral services held there over
the casket. 1t will be remembered that
this was done when the late Senator
Mark Hanna died This. however is not
the rule in the House. The tendency i'm
the Senate is to gradually abolish Off
cial funerals while the House in spite OF
the fact that it numbers over four times
as many members, inclines toward even
greater formality.
When member OF the House dies the

Against Hat Raising.

From the London Chronicle
The formation of a league in Berlin to
substitute a military salute fer the prac-
tee of raising the hat has probably been
brought about by the spread Ct the all
invading cap There was a time when
hat raising was a fine art. Louis XVIII
once boasted that he was the only man
in his doElinions who knew how to put
on a hat and to take II off again in the
correct eighteen .h-century style. And
ii is true" adds Talleyrand, who records
the boast, that the king took a great
deal Ct pains over the process" But can
we imagine Louis taking the same pains
over raising a cap? Brummel and D Orsay
rolled into one could hardly do that grace
fully.
