ant-at-arms was taken by surprise.
~ guess I'll have to get duplicate
key to this door, said the President
smilingly, as the sergeant-at-arms'
hastily dispatched a messenger for the
key. Hardly any senators were in the
building, but Secretary Tumulty soon
sent out a call for about twenty of

the senate office building.
The individuals about whom the

The President left The capitol as in
conspicuously as he came. The attend

President thanked them and declined.
81 guess I'm a good Democrat, and
can walk down." he said wath laugh.

PATTERSON APPOINTED JUDGE.
Governor Tener Names Man Who is
Well Known in Alexandria.

John NJ. Patterson, an assistant
District Attorney, Of Philadelphia, and
a former partner of Cornelius Hag-
geruy, Jr., son-inlaw Of the latA
John A. Marshall, was appointed last
night by Governor Tener to Common
Pleas Court No. /, to succeed the late
Judge Edward W. Magill. Judge
Patterson is well known in AleXan-
dria. The position pays salary OF
$1,000.
Governor Tener declared last night
that he appointed Mr.. Patterson to
meet the conges.ed condition in the
local Common Pleas Courts, and be-
cause of the inability to obtain county
judges to preside at this time, He ex-
planned that Mr.. Patterson had re-
ceived the endorsement of more law
vers than any other candidate for ju-
dicial place, and no objection had been
made against his appointment. His
name was among the five with the
larpes votes at the meeting of the
Law Association, which failed to en-
dorse candidates because none of the
nominees before the association re-
ceived the required two-thirds vote.
Few men have been elevated to the
local Common Pleas Bench at the age
of Mr.. Patterson. He IS 80 years old,
and has been in public life since 1901.
He was admitted to the bar in Janu-
ary, 1896, having completed the three
wears of law study in two years. In
the following June he graduated from
the University of Pennsylvania Law
School. He abandoned temporarily
the practice of law in 1898 to enlist
for the Spanish American war, en-
tering as color sergeant of the First
Regiment, Pennsylvania Volunteers
and mastering out as captain OF Com
pany L. 10Th Regiment.
His first political experience wa:
gained as one of the Municipal League
candidate for Magistrate in Feb. 1900
The league was reform party at tha
time. The reform ticket was defeated
but he ran ahead of the ticket 3,OOO
This strength attracted the attention
of the leaders, and they took up Mr..
Patterson.
Upon the appointment of John L
Kinsey to the bench, Patterson be
! came an assistant city solicitor i
1901. Three years later he was nam
ed as an Assistant District Attorne
to John C. Bell, now Attorney Gen
eral. He is now one OF the Specls
first assistants under District At
torney Rotan.
, Mr.. Patterson is trustee of tempt
!, University, and is serving his thir
term as president of the Dickens Fe
: lowship.

BUSINESS NOTICES.
ONLY "CASCARETS"
IF CONST|PATED
Gently Clean your liver and
constipated bowels while
you sleep.

Take Cascaret tonight and thor
oughly cleanse your Liver, Stomach
and Bowels. and you will surely feel
great by morning. You men and
women who have headache, coated
tongue can't sleep are bilious, nerv-
Gus and upset. bothered with a sick,
gassy, disordered stomach, or have
backache and feel all worn out.
Are you keeping your bowels clean
with CsscsretS-or merely forcing
passageway every few days with
salts, cSthartic pills or castor oil?
This is important.
CaOcarets Immediately cleanse and
regulate the stomach. remove the
sour, undigested and fernentinE food
and foul gases: take the excess bile
from the liver and carry OFF the con-
stipated waste matter and poison
from the intestines and bowels.
Remember. a Cascaret tonight will
straighten you out by morning. A
10-cent box from your druggist
means healthy bowel action; a clear
head and cheerfulness for months.
