Seaat. r Hill began with a voice
!.„• n- ve- se-tried more powerful to
the pack-d galleries and the body of
th s• rate. It was of vast volume, a
deep, revi rlerant bass. Yet, not long
after h had started upon Ills strictly
parliamentary tongue lashing of the
man who was hated and despised of
the Democrats, he occasionally baited,
as though trying to catch his breath.
i Thee, at times, his voice became sud
denly husky. Again, what seemed to
! me to be an expression cf pain passed
: over his features, and towards the end
I of the spe ch he paused frequently,
often that he might swallow a drink
j of water, which he took as though his
I mouth were parched.
Perhaps half an hour after the sena
tor had finished speaking it fell to my
'ot to meet him in a horse car goir.g
down Pennsylvania avenue. 1 ven
tured to s:.y that 1 had had the pleas
ure of listening to -'very w ord of his
speech, and was sure fo-.' it would at
tract widespread attention. As I spoke
I noticed that he held his mouth open
, in a peculiar way.
“I thank you for what you have
said,” the senator replied. "But I am
fearful that it is my last sjieech in
the senate.”
"I thought you were occasiona’ly in
some physical distress.” I said, as the
1 senator paused.
"Y'ou were correct,” he said ' Some
portions of the speech were delivered
w hile I was in great pain, and nearly
all of it was delivered under mnch
physical inconvenience. There is some
thing the matter with my throat. It
becomes peculiarly dry. with a parch
ing dryness, when 1 am compelled to
talk long. I am going to Philadelphia
to consult a specialist in a day or
two.”
That he did. and the surgeons dis
cover; d that ru excrescence had grown
upon the trr.gue. It was removed al
most immediately. Hut in a little while
the malignant growth reappeared, and
then r v ,.s thai the senator knew he
was doomed. He wtnt to his home
ar.d died soon afr< r from the effects of
this trouble, somewhat similar to the
disease which caused the death of
General Grant. He had. indeed,
spoken prophetically when he said
that he w :s apprehensive that the
speech in which he attacked Senator
Mshone would he Lis last in the fed

Yankee’s Secret Berlin Visii
How Frederick W. Ho!!s Brought
About the Adoption cf an Amer
ican Plan by The Hague
Conference.
The secretary and counsel of the
American delegation to the first peace
conference at The Hague, called in
lSbb at the instance of the czar, was
the late George Frederick William
Holls. who, for many years prior to
his death, enjoyed a large German
American law practice in New York
city. Mr. Holls was especially quali
fied to act as the delegation's secre
tary and counsel, partly through his
ability as a lawyer and his familiarity
with international law. partly by rea
son of the very cordial relations he
had established at the German court
the year before, and partly because

fact, and asked why he did not take
the trip.
"I have always regretted that 1 was

reply, "hut tht re w. ~e one or two good
r*:.s ‘hr : perat-f! to keep me at

I sh. J hr- ak in upon my life's work
thus early by taking pan in a world
tear the j-rhaps would occupy the
b*-v.-r ; art of three years. Further
more. it was necessary tba* some one
should be in the Fnited States who
••..Id • 'k af: • father's business af
fairs. and because there was a very
t J p«-s - r- ..son w hy I should re
main at h< n.e. 1 was given the task
‘ managing father's business matters
for him while he was absent from
the country.
"Well, afftr father had started I de
nied to keep a very careful, system
atic and detailed record of accounts
relating to such of his business as I
might be cal **<i upon to transact As 1
beheld these accounts grow from
month to tn< nth. I rt fleeted with some
pride that upon father’s return I
should b* able to lay before him ac
•empanied by *h ‘ necessary vouchers,
a complete and full statement of all
collections and expenditures made by
me in his behalf. And. I must con
>m, as the lime for his return drew
near I began to look for a compliment
on the manner in which I uad attend
ed to his business and on the accurate
and complete story of his business af
fairs that the accounts would tell to
I him.
‘Of course, son:-' time afte- fa
ther's return we were too much oc
cupied with greetings, with receiving
friends and congratulations, and with
listening to the various stories that
father had to tell of his experiences, to
get down to the business tha* lay be
'ween him and me. But finally, there
came a day when I placed before
father my account books, vouchers and
other documents essential to perfect
accounting, and said to him:
•' ‘Father. I hare tried to keep rery
careful and accurate accounts of your
business affairs since you have been
(away, and I think 1 hare done pretty
well. I hare here a general statement
| of receipts and disbursements, a de
i tailed statement, and a comply tt set of
vouchers. I am sure that you will find
I the accounts all right, and 1 would like
I to have you look them over.’
" Well, my son. father asked, ‘did
you receive enough money to pay all
my hills promptly?’
“ 'Oh. yes, the receipts were abund
ant.’
" Well, you have paid all the bills"'
“ Yes. every one.
“ Was there anything left over?
‘Yes. quite a little sum.'
•‘ 'Then take your accounts away and
lock them up: 1 don’t care to see them
So long as all the biilr were paid, and
so long as the balance remains in my
favor, what do 1 care about accounts'
That’s all 1 want to kDow.’
“And do you know." concluded Mr.
Grant. “I could never get father to look
at those accounts 1 had kept so pains
takingly against the day of his return
But I think he was not a little proud
of the wav In which 1 was able to hand
a general report to him by word of
mouth ”

he spoke German as though it were
his native tongue.
“When I first arrived at The Hague." ,
Mr. Hollis said to me shortly after he
returned therefrom. "I was a little
diffident about taking any active part
in the conference. Andrew D. White
one of my associates, was universally
known sb~oad because he had served
as ambassador to Germany, and also
because of his identification with,Cor
nell university. He was well acquaint
ed with the kaiser. My other associ
ate. Seth Ix>w. was also a man of in
ternational reputation. So. you see. 1
my first inclination was to keer in
the background as much as possible.
“But in the course of the delibera
tions of the conference a matter that
I deemed roost vital to American in
terests came up for discussion—I am
under pledge not to reveal its na
ture—and almost before 1 realized it
I had lost my shyness and was in the
thick of the deliberations For sever
al days we Americans pressed for the
adoption of our point of view, only to
discover eventually that the German
representatives, the French and at
least one of the British delegates were
opposed to it. And when we sought
for ’he ron.l reason of the opposition
we discovered that it was based upon
a statement made privately by one of
the German representatives that the
feature would not be favorably re
garded by the German emperor, or,
at least, by those who were high in
his official family.
"I for one did not believe that to
be true. I made up my mind that I
would verify or disprove the state
ment of the German delegate, and to
that end I was able to secure a delay
of a day or two in the final discussion
without saying anything to anyone of
my purpose. Then, quietly. 1 slip;»ej
out of The Hague by a night train,
and the following day was in close
touch with the emperor of Germany
himself. A little inquiry satisfied me
thn- the kaiser and his official family
had been misrepresented, as I had
suspected. But it was going to be a
delicate matter to make a report of
that kind at The Hague. The German
delegate who had either deliberately
or innocently misrepresented his im
perial master might feel offended, and
he certainly would not be disposed to
feel very kindly toward me.
■"However, I was authorized fartful
ly to report that the feature which we
Americans wore especially desirous of
seeing adopted would not be regarded
with disapproval by the emperor or
his official family. That announcement
1 made in due course, and as tactfully
and politely as I knew bow- You can
imagine the surprise that was caused
by what 1 had to say. I was asked
how I knew. "I took the night train
to Berlin and sj>ent a few hours there
since I last saw you.' I replied.
'That reply was sufficient. We
\mericans had our way; and what we
regarded as one of the most important
matters brought befo&> The Hague
p-ace conference was in that way
made certain of final adoption."

Two Soldiers.
Lack of petty jealousy is one of the
distinguishing marks of the great. To
be entirely frank in the appreciation
cf a rival is better than to win a bat
tie. Lee and Jackson, the two great
generals of the south during the Civil
war. were absolutely free from even a
trace of rivalry. Theodore A. Dodge
quotes a remark from each in his arti
cle on Chancellorsville.
"He is the only man I would follow
blindfolded,” said Jackson.

NOT AS BAD AS IT SOUNDED
Wonderful Highland Dialect Respon

Andrew Carnegie, at a dinner in

dialect.
"It's a hard lingo to understand." lie
said. "It often causes awkward mis
takes.
"Once an American divine spent
Christmas in a Highland inn. On
Christmas morning he gave the maid
a Up of a sovereign, and he said, look

pretty maid—
" 'Do you know. Kathleen, your ate a
very good-looking lassie?'
"Of course Kathiten was pleased,
hut, being modest, she L. ashed like a

"'Ah. na; Ah na! But my kissin.

"The divine frowned.
“ ‘Leave the room, you wicked

“He didn't knew, you see. that mod

in her Highland dialect, the superior
charms of her cousin Janet of Pee

The Shadcvv of Science.
Ii is hard to believe that a shadow
is probably the origin of all astrono
mical. geometrical and geographical
science. The first man who fixed his
staff perpendicularly in the ground
and measured its shadow was the
earliest computer of time, and the
Arch of today who-plants his spear in
the sand and marks where the shadow
falls is his direct descendant. It is
from tbe shadow of a gnomon that
the early Egyptians told the length
of the year. It is from the shadow of
a gnomon that the inhabitants of Up
per Egypt still measure the hours of
work tor a water wheel. In this case
the gnomon is a lburra stalk support
ed cn forked uprights and points north
and south. East and west are pegs
in the ground, evenly marking the
space of earth between sunrise and
sunset. In a land of constant sun
shine a shadow was the primitive
chronometer. It w-as also the prim
itive foot rule.
A Lesson for Diplomats.
Elihu Root, at the luncheon in
Providence preceding the dedication
of the John Hay Memorial library at
Brown university, said of John Hay;
"His diplomacy was gracious, and
it was prudent as well. I remember,
in an argument about a certain inter
national complication. hew vew
warmly and aptly he once insisted on
prudence.
"It u-£s tbe Christmas season, and

"The liitle girl frowned.

TAKE A LESSON FROM VENUS
Mora! That Writer Has Drawn Is
Net Without Some Poirts of
Worthiness.
lifiss Venus is a lovely girl: no{
one time has she muttered, against
l:er pale, illumined life not one wo~d
has she uttered. Just think, she’s
been without her arms for many dusty
ages, and yet she never drops the
brine cr rants in hopeless rages. She
has 'o stand a bunch of guff from Art
bugs down to draymen, and yet she
never once comes back and grills the
heathen layman. When some low-,
brow of brutal mien starts merrily to
panning and says ter face is worse
than wood and that her hair needs
canning or that he has a waitress
friend who jerks a coffee jigger could
give her many, many leagues and beat
tier out on figger, she never even
looks at him. that rank untutored sin- i
ner, but holds her to&gue and pedes
tal: O, Venus is a winner. She’s on
the job both day and night, she hears
man knock or flatter and women not
of classic meld get madder than a
hatter. She suffers long and quietly
with calm and placid manner, in cold
tto mits to reach a quilt, in heat, no
hands fan her. She is a lessen in
herself—a fruit for daily picking. Jus*
spare the world your trouble tales and
scratch the useless kicking.—G. S, in
Chicago Tribune.
Children’s Food.
Certain little suggestions are always
to be followed w hen planning the diet
of the little ones. To keep healthy
little stomachs in the nursery never
serve hot stewed fruit to the children.
Plenty of stewed fruit and baked ap
ples they should eat. but they must
invariably be cooked the day before
and dished up cold. The nursery po
tatoes should always be baked or
boiled in their jackets. Stewed and
fried potatoes or potatoes boiled with
out their skins supply starch, with a
loss of all the wholesome potash salts
that the skin gives out during the
process of cooking into the white part
of the vegetable.
* The Inevitable.
"Tou don’t resent that successful
candidate’s proud and haughty man
ner?"
"Nope." rejoined Fanner Corntossel.
"The fact that he’s in politics is all the
guarantee 1 want that sooner or later
he'll meet wi;b some kind of a terrible
finish."
