The Oldest Reporter

DROBABLY the oldest active reporter in the coun-
try is Theodore F. Shuey, IS years DID, who has
held one job nearly 60 years. He is also of
the most accurate chronclers of events and who
colors his news except possibly to gram
NAUTICAL errors in the speeches which he recods.
For he is official reporter of Senate debates
for that well-known and sometimes derided publca-
NAUTICAL errors in the speeches which he records.
Shuey became senate reporter in 1868, when
Andrew Johnson president, the year of Grants
first election. He has recorded the uterances of all
Senators who have served since that time. Naturally
he has head full of interesting memories
He thinks that George Graham Vest of Missouri
the best the Senate has had in all these
years. ingalls, of Kansas was one of the wittiest it
being he who referred to a Delaware solon as a
Senator from state which has three counties at low
tide and two at high tide
Shuey thought Summer of Massachusetts the most
conceited of Senator'S of whom it was said that he
didn't believe the Bible because else had writ
ten it.
Among present Senators, Shuey says that john
son, King, Hefln and Moses easiest to follow and
record in shorthand Which is perhaps fortunate for
the reporters for the gentlemen named generally have
a good deal to say.

Bridge Fiend Test
|ONSIDERING the great spread of the bridge
u playing industry, it is strange that none of our
legislators has had any laws for its regulation
Now comes suggestion that players be compelled to
pass examination before being licensed indulge
in the game
The suggestion comes, not from a United States
Senator, but from an editor whose for the public
welfare has been aroused by report from Kansas
City, where wife shot her husband The victim was
also the adys bridge partner it appears and when he
bid one spade and another player plunged differ
en suit the wife raised to four spades. The husband
set, blamed the wife for reckless bidding, and as
a result of the argument she shot him.
Now, the aforesaid editor asserts all persons who
aspire to play bridge should be caused to pass rigid
test not with reference to their SKILL but determine
their mental poise. If the applicant is unable to be
set or have trumped to be set have an ace
trumped without showing undue emotion, license
should be denied.
The trouble is that such law, if enforced would
practically eliminate all who take the game seriously
