If enterprise is worth } of success , then the
greatest success In the world is due Manager
Day of Wonderland and Bijou theater.
Through his energy the people of Omaha are
now able to enjoy the best of shows nnd at a
price within the reach of all. This has been
the aim of the management from the day the
stock company was first organized , but it
wns Impossible to secure the right people nt
first , but now they point with pride to the
following array of brilliant talent : Mr.
George Wessclls , ono of America's greatest
diameter actors , who at different times
has supported Edwin Booth. Lawrence
Barrett. K L. Davenport , Mine. Janus-
click , Fanny Davenport nnd others. Miss
Nellie Elting. n charming little woman , for
whom n bright professional career Is des
tined. Miss Elting comes of a wealthy New
York family. In fact , is an heiress. She ,
however , Is so completelv In love with her
adopted profession that she has spent thous
ands of dollars of her income in perfecting
herself for the stnirc , nnd the result Is Miss
Elting Is n great actress. Miss Irene Wor
rell Is another valuable addition to the com
pany. Miss Worrell is a sister of Mrs.
CJeorgo S. Knight and hns been with some of
the best companies of the east. Mr. Sam
Holton , nnot/hcr actor of nollity , Miss Dora
Lowe , n handsome character actress ,
nnd Mr. Frnnlc AVinters , nn , English
'
actor of note' , nlso nugment the
company , nnd with Mr. Harry Barlow
Miss Gypsy Barlow , Mr. C. E. James nnd
Mr. J. F. Matthews of the old company , they
Imvo n stock comblnntion enpnble of playing
any drama over written. Last week n grand
production ofThe Golden Giant" wns given
and it unquestionably wns the best play of
the season , yet the play of this week , com
mencing tomorrow , promises to eclipse it. It
Is the iwwerful melodrama ' 'Tho Strnnglcrs
of Paris. " Mr. Wcsscls ns.Jngonnnd Miss
Elting as Mnthildo do Vllleneau are without
equals and the balance of tlio roles are in
good hands. The specialty program will nlso
bo ono of more than average merit. Manager
Day wishes to impress upon the mind of the
public that although his prices nro ttio lowest
of any theater in the city , that from now on
the plays produced at his house will bo
equal to any givoii nt any theater in America.

Ever since occupying their offices In the
city hall the engineering department has
felt the need of a suitable room and ap
pliances for blue process printing. This need
lias now been remedied. Contractor Coots
has converted ono of the vacant apartments
on the sixth floor into a "blue print" room
which is second to none. In the city.
The room is furnished with tables , chairs ,
dark box , sink , drying- rack , In fact , every
thing essential to first-class printing. All
the furniture is of oak. The printing frame ,
which is 44 inches by BO Inches , is mounted
on a cnr In such n manner that it rray bo set
ut any angle. The car Is on a track running
through a window onto the roof. At the end
of this track is n turn table which , used In
connection with the movcablo table , enables
the operator to got the direct rays of the sun
at any time of the day. The sink Is supplied
with an overflow waste pipe , which keeps
the water fresh , and also a hose for washing
the prints , that the best methods Iu finishing
may bo secured.
Draughtsman John McLeurio of the engi
neering department designed the apparatus
and superintended the construction.

Miss 0. 0. Tenant Diary's Musical Enterprise
Begins to Assume Tangible Form ,

Preliminary steps hnvo been taken for the
incorixmitlon of the Omaha Opera Festival
school , nnd the plan of Miss C. C. Tenant
Clary for n local stage In this city bids very
fair to be carried out. The plan Is a broad
one and Its consummation means any
nniount of hard work with at best but n
limited reward nt first further than the
advancement of the musical standard
nnd interest In Omaha. But Miss Clary
is n worker nnd the opera school Is the
hobby upon which she seems willing to de
vote her entire time and apparently unlim
ited energy. She has been persistent In her
efforts to enlist the interest of the leading
citizens in the enterprise and has succeeded
In a measure that must bo n surprise nnd a
rcbuko to the less enterprising promoters of
music who hnvo spent so much time In the
past In proclaiming -that Omaha people do
not take any Interest in such movements.
The tangible result of Miss Clary's efforts
was shown at n meeting held n few even
ings ngo , when the first steps toward the
final organization of the school were tnken.
The meeting was attended by n largo number
of the most prominent citizens and the inter
est manifested was n guaranty that the
plans proiroscd will bo carried out and the
enterprise given n fair trial with liberal en
couragement , nnd what more could the promoter
meter of any enterprise ask ?
At the meeting Miss Clary was chosen
president of the proposed incorporation ;
Hon. George P. Bomls , vlco president ; N. M.
Hubbard , consulting attorney , and Dr. O. S.
Wood consulting physician. An advisory
board was selected , consisting of the follow
ing well knotvn citizens : Rev. J. T. Dur.yon ,
Rev. Newton Mann , Max Mover , Thomas
Kilpatrick , F P. Kirkcndall , C. F. Goodman ,
E. Rosewater , Clement Chase , Mr. and Mrs.
J. R. Buchanan , W A. Paxton , W. J. Cou
ncil , J. M. Woolworth , Mrs. Peattlo and Mrs.
Thomas L. Kimbnll.
Committees were appointed to prepare the
articles of Incorporation nnd a constitution
and by-laws to bo reported at a meeting to
bo held this week , when the further plans
of the school will bo announced to these in
terested in the movement.
Negotiations nro pending for instructors In
the various departments of the school.
There is n very good chance to secure the
services of Max Maretrek as director. Ho
will tit least introduce the work , and if ho
cannot remain permanently with the school
Madame Murctzek will probably bo secured
as director. Prof.-Maraud will have charge
of the dancing classes and Prof. Dennis of
the fencing classes. It Is now the plan lo
open the school In March , although It may
bo decided to fix the opening date for the
first week it April. The term will continue
four months.
These who hare oeen made acquainted
with Miss Clary's plans for the school are
very sanguine of the success of the move
ment and nredlct thnt in a few years Omaha
will have u local stage worthy of the name.
The next recital of the Ladles Musical so
ciety will bo held ntFord & Charlton's music
hall on Wednesday evening of this week.
The program will bo furnished by the Phil
omela quartet , ono of the most popular of
local vocal organizations and whoso previous
performances have'been ' received with much
satisfaction by Omaha Audiences. Tno quar
tet Is composed of Misses Clara Clurkson ,

The Omaha Musical union has begun another
year of existence under the direction of the
following ofllcors , who were instnltcd last
week : President , H. Schunko ; vice presi
dent , Burt Butler ; recording sccretnry , J.
ICauffman ; financial secretary , F. Borghuff ;
treasurer , Julius Meyer : trustees , < * L.
Schneider , E. Nordln and Charles Eggors ;
executive committee , Frank Taylor , Peter
Fuchs , Henry Lotz , J. Souerwcin nnd W.
Lamp.
The organization has constantly increased
In membership nnd interest during the year
nnd now Includes most of the first-class in
strumental musicians of the city , The total
membership Is 1H7 , which will , no
doubt , continue to increase in the future.
The failure of the Musln Concert company
to keep their engagement in this city is to
bo regretted , ns the company is without
doubt ono of the best that is likely to visit
Omaha. The Apollo club had been to con
siderable trouble nnd some expense In secur
ing the attraction , and at the popular prices
which had been decided on no lover of good
music would have had an excuse for staying
away. Whether the company can bo secured
for a date later in the season Is not sure nt
present , but an effort In this direction will
probably bo made.
The first performance of Mascagnl's
"L'Amlco Fritz" In America will bo given
In Music hull , New York , January 31 ,
under the management of Mr. Morris
Reno nnd the musical direction of Walter
Dumrosch. The entertainment will bo for
the benefit of the Young Men's Hebrew
association nnd the Hebrew Institute. Mr.
Payne Clark , who was recently heard In
local opera in this city will assume ono of
the solo parts , and other stars will bo Mine.
Sclma Kronold-Koert , Mrs. Clara Poole nnd
Slgnor del Pucnto. These will bo supported
by n chorus of forty voices.
Mine. Fannie Bloomflcld-Zaisler , whoso
performance nt the .Llninger gallery In this
city some time ngo delighted n largo aud
ience , gave two concerts In Chicago last
week , ono nt the Chicago university nnd
another nt Contrail Music hall , under the
auspices of the Amateur Musical club. Her
playing was extolled to the verge of perfec
tion by the critics who united in considering
her ono of the greatest living lady pianists.
It Is to bo regretfect that Paderowskl's
concert tour of thfcxcountry does not Include
Omaha. Ho is said , to have entirely recov
ered from his recent illness , which It was
feared would prevent him from ever again
appearing on the concert stage. His recent
performances nt Music hall , New York have ,
given the impression that his work is oven
better than before.
*
The musical features of the services nt
Trinity cathedral this morning will consist
of the "To Deum" by Smart und the "Jubi
late" by Dudley Iluck. For the offertory
the choir will sing "How Lovely Are Thy
Messengers" from Mendelssohn's oratorio ,
"St. Paul. " At the evening service the
"Magnltleato" and "Nuno IJimlttls" by
Spark will bo rendered and nlso the tenor

The Chapel quartet Is one of the younger
male vocal organizations of the city which
has won Its share of popular approbation
during Its brief existence. The quartet was
organized about n year ago with Mr. E. H.
Wcdgo , first tenor ; E. Harding , second
tenor : A. P Conovcr , b.irltono nnd J. L.
Hockwell , basso. The club did not appear
in public for some time which wns devoted to
preliminary rehearsals. Slnco then , how
ever , they have sung nt a number of local
entertainments with marked success and
have constantly improved in their work.
Mr. Wedge has an excellent tenor voice of
the lyric school. Ho has a good compass ,
with tones of pleasing quality and a clear ,
ringing Intonation. Ho is solo tenor at St.
Matthias Episcopal church and secretary of
the Schubert Glee club. Aside from his
musical duties ho Is cashier for a leading
wholesale house. Mr. Harding , the second
tenor , Is also connected with the St. Matthias
choir. Ills voice is of good quality , with a
baritone tendency. His Intonation is sympa
thetic nnd blends harmoniously with other
voices. Mr. Conover Is the possessor of a
flexible , resonant baritone voice , which Is of
good compass and pleasing effect. Ho Is the
director of the Knox church choir. Mr.
Koekwell is solo basso nt St. Matthias
church , and Is also vlco president of the
Schubert Glee club. His volco Is remarka
bly powerful in the low tones and has excep
tional range. The quartet has several out
of town engagements during the season.
I'eter Iiillr.v' ) Sonj ; .
The following song was written for Mr.
Peter Dalley by Frank J. Bryant of Chicago ,
who is comparatively unknown as a comic
song writer , but who nevertheless is liable
to become famous through his song , "Chris *
topher Columbus , " which Mr. Dailoy Is sing
ing nightly in the performance of "A Mad
Bargain. " The music Is taken partly from
the opera of "The Gondoliers" and partly
coniK | > sed by Mr. Dailcy :
I'll sing lo you about n man.
Whoso tinino you'll find In lilatoiy.
He soUcd a problem very deep ,
Which long had been a inysteiy ,
Navigators young and bow
( iavu way to him iiutto lltly.
Ills name It was Columbus
And ho cuino from sunny It'ly.
Tn Ih klmjs and queens of Huropo
Columbus told his theory.
They simply thought him emry
And asUod him this toujh query :
How could the eat Hi stand up If louiul ?
It surely must suspend.
Tor answer Columbus took ; an i egg
And blood ft on Its end.
In Fourteen Hundred nnd Ninety-two ,
'Twns then I'olumlms started
From Paloson the roast of Hpnln ,
To the westwaid hi ) departed.
Illsolijcct was In Und n unite ,
A short ono to Kasl India.
But Columbus had no whiskers
And the wind blew tluough quite windy.
AVhen sl\y ( days away from land
Upon the broad Atlantic ,
The sailors they went on a strike
Which nonrly caused u panic.
They all demanded e gs to cat
J'or every man in the crew.
Columbus Mint no eggs aboard ,
Itut hu nuulo the bhlp "lay to. "
The hungry crew Impatient pre\T
And beefsteak they demanded.
Quito equal to the emerjjency
Oolumlms lie. commanded
"That every sailor who proves true
And his duty never shirks ,
Can have a juloy norteihouse ,
Talion from the bulwarks. "
Not satisfied with steak nnd eggs
The erew they wanted chicken.
Columbus seemed at u loss for once ,
And the plot began to thicken.
The sailors thtentened to junipovcrboard
Columbus lilocKod tlio pathway
And ci led : "If chicken you must have
J'll get It from the hatchway I"
* *
Then Columbus claimed Atneilm
l-'or the king and queen of Spain ,
Tlio Indians thought It was not right ;
Hut their pleadings were In vain.
The bis chief treated to cigars ,
And olTeted fiult and honey.
With the voice of a lion Columbus declined
And kicked for muccatonl.
MAKING THE WEATHER.
Some of the Polntft On Which Judgment of
Prediction * Should He Mude.
People who do not understand the system
of forecasts and signals which govern the
United States weather buvrau nro given tea
a good deal of unjust and unreasonable ) criti
cism , It is natural for n person to supnoso
that the weather prevailing In his immediate
locality covers a much wider area than Is
frequently the case , and the appearance of a
local flurry of snow or a local shower sf rain
In the face of a prediction of fair weather on
the part of the weather forecaster Is pointed
to by mnny nnd frequently spoken of In
editorial comment as nn absolute failure of
the forecaster , when as a matter of fact his
prediction may bo verified by the average
weather over the area for which ho is sup
pose ! to make the forecast.
A local flurry of snow or a slight fall of
rain does no" ern prove a local forecast of
fair weather to have been a mistake. The
phrase "fair weather" in weather bureau
language , means weather In which less
that one-hundredth of an Inch of rain or
snow bus fallen within twenty-four hours ,
To n person unacquainted with this meaning
of the phrnso the forecasts made by Captain
Hunt of the Omaha weather bureau during
the month of December often appeared to
have been erroneous when they were
verified by the record during the
entlro month , with the exception of
ono or two daya. _ There wcro twelve days
durinfr the month In which it snowed , but
the fall was less than ono-one-hundrcdth of
nn inch and consequently the prediction of
"fair weather" for these days was correct ,
although It blew and snowed furiously for a
few minutes each day. There were but nine
days during the month that could bo called
"foul" days , according to the rules of the
weather bureau. That Is , there were but
nine days In which there was a fall of inoro
than ono-one-hundrcdth of an inch of snow
or rain.
The forecaster Is not Justified , therefore ,
in sending out n prediction of snow unless he
believes that there will bo n fall of more
than ono ono-hundrdth of nn Inch.
With regard to the cold wave signals , It Is
also duo to the local forecaster to state that
lie simply follows directions from Washington
In display Ing them. It sometimes happens
that the forecaster In Washington , looking
nt the situation from long range
and being unfamiliar with the local
peculiarities of climate , may order
a i cold wave for Omaha or some other
iKilnt when the local forecaster "feels It in
his bones" thnt there will bo no such de
cided drop of the mercury as the head onlco
hns predicted. But , acting of course ns nn
obedient ofllcor. ho Is obliged to hoist the
cold wave signal and publish the prediction
sent out from headquarters. Then , when
the cold wnvo fulls to put In an appearance ,
the people jeer and make sport of the
local forecaster , notwithstanding the fact
that the weather may hnvo been cold
enough to freeze the whiskers off of the
man In the moon in localities not very
far away. The month of November was
somewhat unpleasant , but there were but
'ewdujs in the month that the forecaster
could call foul. After Captain Hunt took
charge of thho Omaha office there was only
ono day during the remainder of the month
In which more than ono one-hundredth of an
Inch or rain or snow fell , Tim past full and
winter has been a time In which the local
forecasts of fair weather have appeared
ridiculous and incorrect , because there have
been so many Incipient storms and slight
falls of snow and rain that amounted to dis
agreeable weather , but did not make it
"foul" In the eyes of the weather buicau.

WASHINGTON , D. C. , Jan. IU. [ Correspond
ence to TUB line. ] Several men who have
become more ' or less conspicuous in the pub
lic cyoln'thoslx or more years of their
service In the senate of the United States ,
will retire to private life on the 4th of
March next , and If they follow the example
of most of tli-sIr Immediate predecessors ,
they will sink Into the depths of political
obscurity. The scnato was once a stepping ,
stone to high political preferment. Of late
years politicians have como to regard It as a
political graveyard. Occasionally a man
llko Spooner of Wisconsin , who leaves the
scnato whllo ho Is still in the vigor of early
manhood , keeps his name and personality
before the public , and possibly attains even
greater distinction tlnn ho earned by his
services in the upper branch of the national
legislature. In the early history of the sen
ate It was a school for statesmen. From It
they graduated Into positions of trust and
honor. Men have rcslgne.l from the senate
to accept posts in the public service which
are now considered far bslow the senator-
ship In honor. For example , ono of Now
York's senators resigned to become mayor
of New York City ; another to bo postmaster
there. Today the senate seams to bo the
climax of political ambition or at least of
political achievement. At brief Intervals
paragraphs appear In public print , perhaps
live or six Hues in length , announcing under
a telegraph date line that "Mr. died hero
today. Ho was formerly a senator from this
state and served from to . " The
average newspaper reader has prooably
never heard of Scnitor . Ten years
hence some of the men who arc to retire
from the scuiito on the Ith of next March
will die , psrlrips , and their obituaries will
attract just as little attention from the
newspaper reiders of tint day.
Here is n partial list of men who have re
tired from the United States ssniito within
a few years , with a brief st'itenunt of their
present occupation :
W. M. Evarts of Now York ha 1 been secretary -
rotary of state baforo he went into the sen-
ate. He has now retired to private lifo and
to comparative obscurity , spending much of
his time at his beautiful country homo in
Vermont.
Mr. Edmunds of Vermont , who was a
strong candidate for the prcsldcntal nomina
tion eight years ago , resigned from the sen
ate because of his own failing health and
the poor health of several members of his
family. Ho spends his time In travel and
recreation. Ho is now in California.
.lohnathan Chase of Rhode Island resigned
his sent In the senate to give attention to his
business affairs. No ono outside of Rhode
Island over hears of him today. But for
that matter ho was not especially conspicu
ous during his term in the senate , except
for the fact that ho was the only Quaker
there and that ho wore u steel-pen coat all
day.Mr.
Mr. Conger of Michigan used to divide in
terest with Mr. Chase in this peculiarity of
attire. Mr. Conger Is now practicing law in
Washington , appearing chiefly before the
committees of congress. Ho is no longer u
public character.
Henry B. Payne of Ohio , over whoso elec
tion there was so extended a controversy ,
hns slipped out of public notice completely
since the expiration of his term. If he is
known still it Is as the fathcr-ln-Iaw of that
champion political foolkiller , Mr. Whitney.
Mr. Farwell of Illinois was a political
accident nnd ho will probably not fall into
prominence a second time. Ho has gone
back to Chicago to attend to his business
interests , and ho is a very small factor in
politics there.
, Mr. Saulsbury of Delaware joined Mr.
Bayard \ in political obscurity when his state
fell ' Into thojinnds of the republican party.
'
Mr. Bayard 'may como back to the senate if
Senator Gray should go into Mr. Cleveland's
cabinet ; but the Bayard and Saulsbury su
premacy In Dolcwnro Is almost a thing of
the past.
Mr. Jones of Florida spent the last few
years of his term In Detroit , the victim of n
diseased mind. Ills hallucination was that
a very wealthy Detroit woman wanted to
marry him. At last accounts he was still
nursing this idea ; but ho had ceased to bo of
any political prominence.
Sir. Brown of Georgia retired from the
senate on account of old age. Ho had ceased
to be of much value as n lawmaker long be
fore his retirement. His retirement from
the senate was his retirement from public
lifo.
lifo.Mr.
Mr. Fair of Nevada , who mndo room for
Senator Stewart six years ago , has attracted
attention slnco only when some now.ipape-
has reviewed the history of fortunes madr
in mining. Ho was llttlo more than a tlgurco
head In the senate anyway.
Mr. Mahone of Virginia made way for a
democrat six years ago. and slnco his retire
ment has succeeded in keeping the republi
can party in Virginia divided , but ho has
not accomplished anything for cither the
party or himself , and , except as a disturbing
element , ho Is of llttlo Importance. His old
colleague , Riddlebergcr , died soon after his
retirement , but , If ho had lived ho could
never have amounted to anything politically
again.
Of other men who have retired from the
senate within a comparatively recent period ,
Mr. Garland of Arkansas Is practicing law
obscurely In Washington ; Mr , Dorsoy of the
same state is running n ranch In the south
west ; Mr. Bo wen of Colorado , who was made
famous chiefly through the mining and
poker stories told about him , has disappeared
entirely from the political horizon ; Benjamin
Harrison of Indiana has become president of
the United States ; Thomas A. Hcndricks of
Indiana had been elected vice president and
Inducted into that office at the time of his
death ; Joseph McDonald of Indiana retired
to the practice of law , and became of late
jcars ; a lobbyist before congress ; Mr. Ingalls
of Kansas Is keeping himself In the
public eye by lecturing In small towns ; Mr.
Eustis of Louisiana Is living In Washington
doing nothing , but 1m Is a possible member
of Mr , Cleveland's cabinet ; Mr. Palmer of
Michigan has become president of the
World's fair commission ; Mr. Sabln of Min
nesota went back to private life to recover
the fortune which ho lost whllo ho was giv
ing his tlr.io to politics : Mr. McMillan of
Minnesota has also retired to private lifo ; .
Mr. Lamar of Mississippi went from the *
senate Into Mr. Cleveland's cnblir.it and <
tiienco to the supreme bench ; Mr. Van ' . '
Wyck of Nebraska has loft the republican l
party and Identified himself with the popu
list , and ho was thelrcamlldatu for governor
recently ; Mr. Blair of New Hampshire has
just been elected to the house of rcprosenta- '
lives ; Mr. Sowell of New Jersey occupies a
prominent plaeo In the republican party in
his state because of his largo railroad Inter-
cats and his financial Influence ; George II.
Pcndleton of Ohio was minister to Germany
before his death ; Mr. Mitchell of Pem.-'yl-
vanla retired to private lifo almost blind ;
Mr. Camden of West Virginia continued to
bo an Important factor In the democratic
party until Jio announced a few days ngo
that his business Interests and his health
would prevent him being a candidate for his
old place and Mr.
, Spoonerof Wisconsin
recently the unMieeiwsful republican candl *
date for governor of his state.
The state of Now York furnishes the most
striking example of the change whuh has
some In the value of the sonntorshlp ns a
stopping stone. Of the men who Imvo
served that state In the scnato In recent
years , not ono seems to nave derived anv fu
tnro political benefit from his service , whllo
their early prcdoeossrs lived to enjoy politi
cal prominence for many years aft or the ojc
plrntlon of their senatorial terms , ( . "oakling
resigned In the hope of being vindicated bva
ro-cloetlon , but ho wns dlsnpiuhitcd. llo.
then took up the practice of law nnd wa
never afterward an active political factor ,
loin Platt , who resigned with him , has be
come a republican Iwss In Now York state ,
but ho has succeeded in delivering over the
state to the democratic party , sj ho con
hardly bo classed as a complete success oven
In this role.
Warner Miller , who followed Mr. Pint I ,
has attracted attention to himself liv his ,
work for the Nicaragua canal ; but tills Is '
purely a commercial enterprise. Mr. j
uipliam , who succeeded Mr , Coiiklhif , fell 4
Into Irredeemable obscurity , political anil
commercial , Immediately after his rctlro-
mcnt.
The predecessors of the-w men had < iultc a
different record. These who were In the
scnato during the early days of tlio republic
were almost without exception , actively in *
tcrested in the development of their state
after they had left the senate Philip
Sehuylcr , ono of New York's ilrst senators ,
had to resign because of 111 health but ho
remained active In political life until the
time of his death. Ills colleague. Uufus
KInir , was the candidate of the federalist
party against James Monroe for the presi
dency ; and later ho was minister to Eng.
land. Aaron Burr , who succeeded Schuvlor ,
became a member of the state assembly
after his retirement from the senate mid
later was vice president of the United Stalest
William North , 0110 of Now York's early
senators , was adjutant general of the army
white bo was still in the senate. After ho
retired from the senate ho , was speaker of
the New York assembly and one of the first
canal commissioners of Now York state ,
.lames Watson resigned this Henntor.shlp
to become a naval officer and Theo-
dortis Bailey to accept the appoint ,
ment of postmaster of Now York Johri
Armstrong was minister to France and to
Spain , brigadier general and then secretary'
of war. DoWitt Clinton resigned to become
mayor of Now York , then lieutenant gov
ernor of the state , a candidate for the presi
dential nomination , governor and filially ha
declined the English mission Obadlah Gcr
man became a member of the state ussein- ! -
bly , speaker , first Judge of Chenango county
nii'llom commissioner. .Martin Van Huron
resigned to take the governorship of Now
York , became secretary of state , vice presi
dent and then president. N. P Tallmadgo
resigned to bo governor of Wisconsin terri
tory. W. Li. Marey resigned to bo governor
of New York , was a member of the Mexican
Claims commission , secretary of war under
Polk and secretary of state under Plorco.
Silas Wright , jr. , his successor , also resigned
to ' accept the governorship and afterwards
declined ( offers of cabinet positions and for
eign missions. Daniel S. Dickinson received
the vole of Virginia for the presidency In
18r)2latcr declined a number of proffered posi
tions I and finally was district attorney fortfio
southern district of Now York until his
death. John A. DIx left the senate to be
come a candidate for the governorship ; was
assistant treasurer and postmaster of New
York and then secretary of the treasury
under Buchanan ; served with distinction as
major general of volunteers during the war ;
was naval officer of New York , then minister
to Franco and then governor of New York"
stato. W. II. Sow.ird becaino Lincoln's neo >
rotary of state , and after his retirement' !
from that position made a Journey around I
the world and wrote a book about it. K D.tl
Morgan became chairman of the National
Hallway commission in 18J , governor of NoW
York In 1870 and declined the secretaryship '
of the treasury in 1831 , H. K. Funton bo-1
came chairman of the United States com
mission at the monetary conference at Paris
In 1878 and later was much Interested in projects - '
jects for railroad development. '
It is altogether likely that Mr , Hlscock
will follow in the footsteps of his immediate
rather than his remote predecessors. There
was n great deal that was accidental Ju Mr.
Hlscock's election to the soiiatorship , and It
is not at all likely that ho will over bo again
a political quantity in the state of Now
York. Probably the same fate awaits most
of these who leave the senate with him on
the 4th of next March.
