average fellow does the innermOst re-

them-belIeve the sun Is going to ex-

our sun Is of advanced age, and pre-
diets its finish as the leading figure
In any solar system. He finds that our
sun has contracted 92000.000 miles
from each side, thus giving Its hot cen

URGED HIGH TITLE
Many Would Have Had Washing
ton Addressed as Monarch.
Interesting just Now to Recall How
Fond OF Hlsh.soundlna Appelia-
tions Were the Founders Of
This Great Republic.

In view of the widespread approval
Of the Chamberlain bill. making It pos
sible for our soldiers to wear medals
conferred by the French, Il Is interest
Ing to be reminded that, although the
Constitution forbade all those In the
service of the United States to accept
titles or decorations from foreign
rulers. n strong party In our first SEN
nte wished TO bestow almost royal title
upon government officials.
A serious debate arose over the
manner IN which Washington should
be addressed, and on April 23 1880
committee was appointed to consider
the matter. Among the titles urged
were Ellis Hlghness, the President OF
the United States of America and Pro-
tector of the Rights OF the Same" "fIls
Elective Highness," etc. and cano-
pied throne was to be erected for his
use In the senate, Mmbers of that body

called "Court party" which wished to
borrow the forms of the British mon
archy for our infant government. His
most jealous supporter was Richard
Henry Lee of Virginia. Maclay and
Robert Morris were the first senator's
from Pennsylvania.
The matter rested until after the
formalitles of Wushington's inaugural
ton were settled. Under the first plan
the clergy could attend only rs spec
tators. but this was finally overruled
on a strong protest from the ministers
Of New York. An interesting sidellght
on the times is given by John Randolph
of Virginia. who as boy witnessed
the inauguration of Adams rs vice
president
The controversy over the titles came
to Il head on May ! when the clerk Of
the senate began TO read the minutes.

address. Blank surprise showed I'm the
eyes OF many of the senator's. Jelfer-
son, the great champion of democracy,

dents speech are the same that are

Britannia majesty" he said. 81 know
they will give offense. consider them
improper. therefore. move that they
be struck out and that 1t stand sim
ply address or speech, as may be ad-
judged most suitable"
The report of the committee on titles
was rejected May u by vote OF 10 to
s, but in a half.hearted way. The rec
ord showed that "for the present" the
subject would be dropped, but the
wording clearly indicated that titles
were favored.
