Name Of the Speaker Apparent.

Champ Clark, to be the next Speaker
of the House of Representatives., ex-
plains his name as follows:
My parents named me James Beau
champ Clark. They didn't christen me.
because they were Campbellites and
didn't believe in christening. I hadn't
been noticing things very long before
discovered that there is a J. E. Clark at
nearly every post office in the United
States. One day I went down into Ken
lucky to a place where, as usual, there
was a j. B. Clark. Nearly all of my
mail went TO him. He opened my let
tiers and sent them back to the writers.
name.
"The first thing I did was to drop off
the James 1 thought it would be a
nice thing to be called Beauchamp
Clark; bnt the first thing I knew they
were calling ME Beechamp, Boochamp.
Bichamp, Baychamp and every other
kind of Champ Nobody could pro-
nounce it right. I never was certain
that I could either. so just dropped off
the first part and kept the Champ"
The episode Is not so old but that
people vet remember the Sackville-
Vests and the scandal which sent them
flying back to England. Flora Sack
ville-West. n daughter of the former
British Minister to the United States
has adopted the profession of her
mother, that of dancing upon the
vaudeville stage. The first press an
nouncement of her debut was 1.-THE
Hon. Flora Sackville-W West, daughter of
the late Lord Sackville- West" This
raised a great howl with the SackvilIe-
West family, which threatened to take
legal steps to prevent the lady's taking
the name of her father. AS a matter
of fact, she has not any right to the
name, as her mother, Josefa Durand de
Ortega, the Spanish dancer. was never
married to Lord Sackville-Wes This
is the second lady of diplomatic fami-
lies who carried things with a high
hand in Washington who has gone upon
the stage.
Senator Bailey, who is never so happy
as when arguing constitutional point,
can now get his fill of that, as the ques-
ton has been raised as to whether Mr.
Bailey, after resigning from the Senate
and sending his resignation TO the Gov
ernor of Texas, is longer a member of
the United States Senate. The Presi-
dent of the Senate, Mr.. Sherman. pock-
eted Senator Baileys resignation, and
would not present it to the Senate, and
the Governor of Texas refused to pre-
sent his resignation to the Texas Legis-
lature. Constitutional lawyers say that
neither the Vice President nor the Gov
erpor of Texas had any power or right
to withhold the resignation, and that
Mr.. Bailey has constitutionally severed
his connection with the United States
Senate, aithO II Is said he has recon.
sidered his effort to retire.

Old Hunserford Tavern.

The Daughters of the American Rev.
olution of Maryland have decided to
purchase the old Hungerford Tavern,
one of the most historic and Oldest
buildings in the United States. This
tavern is located at Rockville, Md,
nov suburb of Washington, and the
Montgomery Cha pier Of Maryland has
the refusal Of the property. This old
hotel was visited by George Washing
ton, Gen. BraddOck, Lafayette, Thomas
Jefferson Benjamin Franklin and many
other figures prominent in American
history The building, which is now in
a frightfully dilapidated condition., is
built in the fine old colonial style, and
when il has been repaired will be re-
furnished with colonial furniture. It
was constructed i'll about 1850 by an
Englishman named William PAXTON.
and il is said that the material was
largely brought from England. The
tavern was partially destroyed by In
dams in 1755, and the proprietor then
gave up the house and went to Phila-
delphia in fear of his life from the In
dams. Shortly after that another Eng
lishman took charge of the place. and
ran 1t as n hotel for many years. 1t
was during his regime that Washington
and bis CONTEMPORARIES visited the
place. 1t is said that Washington
stopped there for few hours before
the battle or Colchester, ana the story
goes that Gen. Washington, having ar
rived late in the evening, dismounted
from his horse and went into the hotel,
and asked to he served his supper at
once, and that a room be made for
him that he might get a few hours
sleep before going down to Colchester,
which is about % miles from Washing
ton, on the Occoquan. The story is
that Washington had eaten his supper
and gene to his room, and the tavern
keeper who was a staRch Tory. plotted
to kill him, and thus aid the British in
resubjugating the Colonies. Just as
the Tories were about to make their
way to the Generals room they met
aim coming down, and stood dumb
founded while Washington passed them
in his usual calm way, mounted his
horse and rode away. II is said that
Washington did not know of this plot
against his life until many years later.
But 1t is also noted that altho he had
in previous years made it his stopping
place on his way home to Mount Yer
non from the north he never stopped
there after that time. 1t is also said
that IL was in this old tavern that reso-
lutions were passed appro owing the Bos-
ton Tea Party.

Death OF Rear-AdmiraI Fremont.

The news of the sudden death-of
Rear Admiral John Charles Fremont,
Coinmandant of the Boston Navy Yard.
at that port, on Tuesday, was great
shock to Washington, where the Ad-
miral and his family are well known
and have a large circle of friends. They
were living here when the Admiral was
transferred about two years ago to the
post at which his death occurred. The
Admiral was son of the late John c.
Fremont, famous for his explorations
in the West. and the first candidate of
the Republican Party, then known as
the Free Soil Party. His mother was
daughter of the Hon. Thomas Fl.
Benton, Senator from Missouri for 80
years. Miss Jessie Benton, who mar
ried Gen. Fremont when she was II
years old. was one of the noted women
of her day. a great beauty, and a wit
Admiral Fremont inherited much from
his two famous parents.

Smithsonian Institution and the Nation
al Museum are very much delighted
over the suggestion of former President
Roosevelt that Congress make an ap-
preparation for the mounting of the
specimens of African birds, beasts and
reptiles which the President secured on
his hunting expedition down there. 1t
is said that great many OF Roosevelt's
specimens have already been mounted,
some 20 in all. and, five, or six of these
are almost ready for exhibition. The
cost of mounting of these specimens is
a very difficult proposition. Until some
four years ago the mountings were
and other materials. THese soon lost
their shape and color and had to be
removed. Now q model us made with
the skeleton as q framework and with
the help of wire braces. burlap and a
composition, and the skin sof the animal
is stretched oven 1t. When completed
the mounted specimens are very light in
weight. 1t is'said that Mr.. Turner and
his assistant are completing the mount
ing of a large buffalo, two large lion
| esses, two lion cubs, spotted hyena, a
Grant gaZelle, a. leopard, zebra, a
goat and a large lion. The lion, the
iioness and the cubs are nearly COM
pleted, and will be placed in a group
on exhibition in short time. All are

plant, rhinoceri and hippopotami-be-

this purpose. These are the animals
which Col. Roosevelt especially desires
TO see mounted.
