DoBBIM HAS A DAY DREAM
Faithful Old Horse Will Have Regular Thrill When He Caste Off
 Ills Shoes.

When the automobile and the tin Lizzie shall at last have relegated the "hoss'' to the limbo of things obsolete, will the noble animal degenerate and hark back to his ancestral type, or will he simply disappear like the dodo? asks "Zim" in Cartoons magazine.
 It has taken lot of time and pa- tience to develop Dobbin from the primitive models such as the hydraco- trerium, the pachynolophus and the eohippus, to make him 'whoa," back and "gitap" and take his meals out of a nosebag. In the process of civiliza- tion he has gradually lost his toes and has had to accommodate his feet to the horseshoe. Does he still dream perhaps of the delights of having toes -of sinking them down Into the green sqush of the tertiary era and feeling the cool goo trickled up between them? If so, how glad he will be some day to look down and see his long-forgotten toes beginning to sprout once again {! His will be the thrill of the small boy on the first warm day of spring when he can cast off his shoes and go bare
 When the "hoss'' discovers for the first time that he can again wiggle his toes, he will doubtless radiate a smile of solid comfort.

A Wise orano-outano.

Prof. William T. Hornaday, the noted animal preceptor. cites this in- stance of ape sagacity;
 T once became quite chummy with an untrained, caged, menagerie orang- outang by the name of Dohong. He was son of the jungle and intensely concerned in matters that came into his narrow life. All that he learned outside of his inherited instincts he learned himself. His cage contained a number of horizontal bars attached to brackets on which he took consid- erable solemn exercise. One day he concluded that the bars ought to come down. Bracing his feet against the solid wall of the cage, he pulled every bar from its fastening and flung 1t on the floor. Larger bars were substi- tuted, which the ape vainly tried to remove. After straining his back in this futile effort, he walked up and down in his cage and was apparently intently studying the situation. Event ually he procured the crossbar of his trapeze and using 1t for lever, he not only pried every horizontal bar from it's brackets, but he likewise pried the iron bars of his cage apart so that he could stick his head through the opening and satisfy his curiosity regarding his neighbor in the adjoining cage"

Resolved, That Trusten Polk, o.

The chief evidence in support of the
charge that Polk was traitor, was
a letter written by him to friend, and
published in New York newspaper
on Dec. 10, 1861 The letter, which
was sent just before the battle of Will
sons Creek, to P. S. Wilkes, of Spring
field, Mo, was read to the Senate by
Mr.. Sumner. 1t was as follows.

Please LET me hear from you"
Three weeks after the Introduction
of the Polk resolution by Senator Sum
ner it came back from the judiciary
committee with recommendation CT
passage. 1t was passed on Jan. 10,
1862.
The next month Senator Morton S.
wilkinson, of Minnesota introduced
a resolution for the expulsion of Sena-
tor Lazarus w. Powell, of Ketucky.
Powell mad fought in vain against the
expulsion of his colleague, Brecken-
ridge, earlier in the session, but when
his own turn came to fight to retain
his seat his most bitter opponent was
his new colleague, Senator Garrett Da~
Wis, of Kentucky, strong Union man,
who had been elected by the Ken
lucky legislature to succeed Breck-
e7ridge.
The resolution against Powell waA
Americus times-recorder. [volume] (Americus, Ga.) 1891-current, 1917-11-04

based on the charge that in June, 1861
latter eleven states had voted to secede
from the Union, he had presided at q
big meeting of sympathizers with he
Confederacy at Henderson. Ky. This
meeting adopted resolutions denounc-
in President Lincoln and demadig the
! removal of federal troops from the
South. Unlike Breckenridge, who was
in camp with his Confederate com
mand when he was expelled, Powell
stayed in Washington and fought
against his removal.
The Judiciary Committee recon-
mended that the Powell resolution
should not be passed. but Davis in
sisted on it, and the fight was made
in open session. Powell merely
claimed that he had done nothing dis
loyal, and the Senate voted to uphold
the Judiciary committee by % to II.
On May 7, 1862, Seator Sumner in
troduced this resolution.
Resolved That Benjamin Stark, a
Senator from OREGON, who has been
found by committee of this body to
be disloyal to the government of the
United States, be, and the same is
hereby. expelled from the Senate
In support of this resolution the
Massachusetts Senator read the find
ings of the committee concerning
Stark, who, in spite of his residence
on the Pacific coast, was an ardent
sympathizer with the south
But the eloquence of summer did
not prevail. The vote to expel STARK
was IS, and the vote not to expel him
was 81
BY all the odds the most curious
case was that of Senator Jesse d.
Bright, of Indiana, who was expelled
by vote of SO to Ia, on February
), 1862, after long fight
Bright sent a personal letter to
Jefferson Davis, President of the Con-
federacy, introducing a friend who
wanted to sell firearms This was on.
March /, 1862. Senator Bright tried
to justify this remarkable act by ex-
planning that the letter was written be-
for the attack on Fort Sumter and
that he did not think at the time OF
writing it that there was going to be
z war He did not seem to attach
any particular significance to the fact
that his friend had wanted to sell
guns to the Confederate government,
hut declared that his letter to Jeffer-
sen Davis was nothing more than
he would have written to anybody at
any time anywhere to help friend.
The Judiciary Committee recon-
mended that the resolution for
Bright's explosion should not be pass
ed, but in this case the committee was
.oysrruled by the Senate.
