Tito senate of the United States Is a con
tinuing body , and , but for the changes In
political affairs , would cover need to lit rc-
organlreil. The lion o of representatives In
ft constantly changing liorty , and whenever
n new congress coin curs It IK necwsary that
an organisation shall bo perfected before any
buslticsi can bo trnnsactecl. The senate Is
always riady for business. *
On the 4th of March , every tv\o yearn.
says tin ; Philadelphia Times , all of the terms
of members of tlio home of representatives
xplro slmiiltnneouilj" . For example , by con-
BtUtitloiml limitation , on March 4 , 1193 , at
noon , the terms of nil of the members of the
house of repro'cntatlves In the rifty-tblril
cotiiriS8 ; ! simultaneously expired. That \\n
the end of that house of representatives.
Also , by constitutional provision , at the same
moment , all of the terms of the members of
the house of representatives for the Tlfty-
fourtli congress b gan lint , although the
D50 members of the liousu of representatives
liavo been drawing pay ut the rate of J5.000
each per annum since March I , 1895 , no log-
lalatho InisliUBH has boon transacted. Hut ,
by constitutional provision , the congress must
meet on the first Monday In December , and
at that hour the clerk of the house for the
Fifty-third congre.iivlll call tire Jiouse to
order and nn orgnlil/atlon will bo perfected
by the election of a speaker , clerk , scrgeant-
nt-arms , doorkeeper , postmaster and clinp-
lj.ln. The IIOUHO will then be competent to
do business under the rules of general par
liamentary law. Hut not until the newly
elected speaker shall have appointed the
standing committee : ) will the housn ! > com
pletely organized for the transaction of leg
islative business. As mien UH tli commit
tees are appointed the > \\a\iso \ \ will ndopt nil's
for permanent procedure , and then the HO-
nallfil lower house of the congress will bo In
complete legislative and parliamentary workIng -
Ing ordor. At the same time an entirely dif
ferent course will be pursued In the senate
of the United States.
At ncou on Monday , Dscember 2. 1S05 ,
the senate will bo called to order by the
vlco president of the United Status , who Is
the permanent presiding ollluer of that body
It will not be nucssaary to elect other olllccrs
but the Kcnatp , which Is a continuing body
will bo at once ready to do bualnusa All of
Itu committees arc In existence and isaily to
jccelve and consider matters properly referred
to them. The chairmen of the committee *
i\Ill be on duty and ull of the clerks , messen
gers , watchmen , laborers and pages will be
there leidy for duty.
ONI5-THIIU ) AT A TIME.
Instead of having .til of the terms of all of
the senators "expire at the same time , the
constltut'orr ' provide ? that the senators shall
bo divided Into three clawes Thus the
terms of one-third of the senators expired nn
March 1 , 1893 ; but two-thirds of the senators ,
have commlbslons extending further Into tlr
.future , and so there will be a quorum of
senators re idy to do business. Tuo penntu
now has eighty-seven memlrrs , and the ternu
of twenty-nine , or ono-thlrd , expired on the
1th day of last March. In tlio meantime the
legislatures of the so\cr ° ! gn state- * have
elected twenty-nine senators , whose terms bean -
an on the 1th day of lant March , and they
will be present to taUo the oath of ofllco and
assume their sonatorlnl duties. Two yean
hence a similar condition will prevail , and
one-third of the senator a will leave the son-
nto and tl.elr successors bo elected. At pres
ent tire twenty-nlno f > rtrntors who
liavo been elected for the term of
lx yearn beginning on March 4 , 1S95 , will
enter the senate chamber on Monday , De
cember 2 , to assume their duties. Ths right
to n seat In either house of the congress la
considered a matter of the highest privilege ,
and the benitor-elect ho duly Inducted
Into ofllco as the first business of the senate
The election of ouch s > enator will bo an
nounced by bis colleague irorn his own
state. Koi example. Senator Hals of Maine ,
will announce that William I' Krye ba been
eleeted for the term beginning March 4 ,
1835. He will accompanj Senator I'rye to
the area before the desk of the \lce prcsl-
dnit. In order that tire oath of otllco niaj
bo administered to him In like manner tire
elections of the other twenty-sight aonators
will announced by their state colleagues
ami all of them will receive the oath of olllce
Kach statf has the right to have two sena
tors , but tire state of Delaware , having failed
to elect a s nntor , there are- only elglrty-
e\en senators Dut for the fortj-four idles
thsio should b eighty-eight senators Col
onel Henry A. Dul'ont of Delaware will
b present an contestant for th" vacant seat
to which Delaware Is entitled Inasmuch as
contestants ba\e the privilege of the lloor
of the senate. Colonel UuPout will bo per
mitted to enter the senate chamber when
that bodj 1' In s'sslon. This coitti 't d elec
tion case will occupy a great deal of time ,
nnil the discussion of Itu merits will attract
public attention from day to day while it Is
being debited.

kiiiB of West Virginia are elected as repub
licans to rticoccd democrats. Marlon Dirtier
of North Carolina was elected .is a populist
to succeed a democrat. These- four senators
having been elected us the successors of
democratic t" > nators , will bring about a
change of politic il power In the serrate. The
.democrats will have thirtj-eight senators ,
which will -plico them In the minority. The
republicans will have forty-two senators ,
which will give them n plmallty. It Is yet
a question whether tlio republican plurality
will accept responsibility by a reorganisation
of the benate.

Uiargo of the pariah at nvansvllle , that 1m
was charged v 1th assaulting one of his com
municants. His accuser was Mrs. Amu Marie
rio bchmoll , and the date was tha even
ing before the Kcast cf the Ascension , af'er
the woman had been to confession. The
womin told her story to her huu'jiml. and
the latter confronted the priest and de
manded ? riOO for the Insult to his wife's
honor. Katbcr Woliuoepfel Indignantly de
nied the charge and demanded an Investiga
tion.

In the fare of the generally admitted bogus
character of the so-called Connecticut "blue
lawM V published by the Tory clergyman
1'etflrs ln 1781 , nnd more especially In view
of the expo'e of their fnlsllj In "IrutnbilH's
Dine Laws. True and Pnlse , " It Is rather In
teresting that a New Haven gentleman , at
this late date , has the courage to point out
that I'ctors was not. after all , such n monumental
mental liar as ho has been credited with
being.
On the contrary , the ancient records of the
New Haven colony , says the Hartford Times ,
show that , while Peters may rave beeir given
to exaggeration , there was at the period of
his observations a good deal of foundation for
what , he published. Representative Newton
of New Haven , who is a lawyer and anti
quarian , has been comparing the so-called
"blue laws" with the laws of the colon ) of
New Haven , nnd has found numerous statutes
or regulations which go to support 1'eters
In n lecture before the New Haven Historical
socletv last week , Judge Newton pointed out
that 1'oters 'nad full warrant for many of his
statements and also that traces of colonial
blue law restrictions are not unknown In our
statute book today One cf the curious and
Interesting revelations of Mr. Newton' paper
Is that tl.e carl ) New Haveners wcro n quar
relsome lot During the first jcar of the
court In that colony , with a population pos
sibly not exceeding COO ( children Included ) ,
thirteen persons were publicly whipped , two
were put In the stocks and two in Irons ,
three were banished , twenty were fined , two
wtro reprimanded by the court and only a
fen wore aiqnlUed. This l > a formidable
criminal record for 500 p ° ople In a single
year , and hejoml this Kieie were on the Uvll
side eleven suits.
Enumerating the Peters blue law * , vvhlc' *
are. supported by the colonial records. Judge
Newton notes those providing that the gov-
01 nor. magistrates and general asscmmy
should be the supreme power , that the gov
ernor had a casting vole when the i ; ' neral
assembly was divided ; that only church
mcmbsrs should bo allowed to vet ° ; that
only those found In faith s'rould bo oillc"-
lioldcrs ( Quakers and dissenters being ex
cluded ) , that food and lodging must not lie
given any "Quaker , Adamite , or otltT hei-
etlc , " and that any p ; < - ! > oii turning Quaker
lie banished. This regulation wotlld in the
earlier days of the colon ) , It not when
Peters wrote , have applied to priests , who , a
Peters said In bis sixteenth blue law , were
forbidden to llvo In fie counlryiiiand If ban
ished bufTerel death If they returned
Ol'ael blue laws coveted by the statutes of
the colony were that men 'ealers should
suffer death : that p'naltles bo Imposed for
wejrtng cstly clothing thu debtors might
be sold to pay for th Ir d.bts ; forbidding
dancing anil card playing ; that only magis
trates bo permitted to perform marriages ,
clergjrnen not having that prlvilegf ; that
the rnaglbtrates might permit nurrlagoa
against the consent of parents ; Imposing
the death penalty for adulkry ; that mar
ried person ) must live together or bo Im
prisoned or banls'.red , and that courtship
must be by consent cf relatives. That the
Sabbath should begin at sunset on Saturday
was not enl ) a law of the early colonists , but
was the practict If not th ° law , to home ex
tent , within tl.e pre'ont century. The fining
of persons refusing to pay for the support of
the ministry was ths law down to the con
stitution.
Tor those blue laws mot't n ot = d , prohibit
ing riding or walking on the Sabbath day ,
other than to or from churc'i ; prohibiting on
the Sabbath travel , cooking , making beds ,
sweeping the house , hair cutt'ng. ' shaving , or
that any woman should kiss her child en tli.it
day or fast day , JuJge Newton cannot flnJ
any supporting e/ldence In the colonial rec
ords. Possibly pamo of those prohibitions
were matters of custom amen our puritani
cal ancestors , and It Is a fact that within
the memory of persons now living arrests
have been mad ? In Connecticut for traveling
on the Sabbath , except on errands of mercy
or necessity ,
In view of the discredit of the blue laws
generally , as little more than exaggerations or
malicious rnlsstatements , It Is Interesting , as
noted with some care by Judge New ten ,
that some of them are substantially the laIn , \
In Connecticut today , more than a century
since Peters published his remarkable volume
in London. Judg : Noivton points out that
the third blue law ( so disturbing to English
Uleis at that time ) , that "the governor Is
amenable to the voice of the people , " Is true
today , the people speaking through the gen
eral assembly. That "judges may determine
controversies without a jury" was one of
the early colonial laws , and trials In the court
r.re not uncommon ntnThe picking of an
ear of corn In a neighbor's garden v.as theft
tl.cn , nnd It Is today The law of the New
Haven colon ) not only punished the person
committing it theft , but made restitution a
part of the penalty. "A drunkard shall have
a master appointed" Is practically the same
as the- law of today for ths appointment of
conservator.- ! , and the alleg d blue law "thut
selectmen on finding children ignorant miy
take them nva ) from their patents and put
'hem Into bottfr hands" was the old luv ,
and today there are statutes of about the
same effect. "A wlfo slull bo deemed good
evidence against her husband" Is the law
todo ) under certain circumstances.
In concluding his paper , JitJgo Newton
finds that "altogether the blue laws of Petou
arc for the- moat part n reasonably caire-ct
statement of the law and prattles of our
forefathers of Nov. Haven and most of them
are- very creditable- them. Femeof them
are exaggerations ; a few are fictitious , but
probably not Intentionally so.

When wo compare railroading methods of
today with those of flft ) ) ears ago , says the
Philadelphia Record , some of the precautions
of that time appear ridiculous. Everbody
was against thtnr the clergy and the lay
men nobility and the people ; everybody was
afraid of great catastrophes. The doors of
the railroad cars had to be locked , BO that
the passengers would not jump out at the
llrrt rmusuil noise. Various propositions v cro
made to make railroading less dangerous
Somebody suggested that the locomotive
Bliculil bo attached to the train by n long
Iron chain. Colonel Lecount propcsed to have
j watchman on top of the Iccomotlve to look
out for the signals nnd the condition of the
roadbed Kvfry quarter nf a mile watchmen ,
with a .signal tlag , were stationed and this
htiirun chain did the- service nf a telegraph
system While many i-ensel „ < precautions
vere taken grots carelessness was shown In
most simple matters Tor Instance , long
trains vveie firmed , b'lng pulled mil pushed
b ) three , four and men elx locomotives
Such a train with thirty cars nnd five loco
motives vcut , ahead on full steam and In
case of danger thera were but three hand
brakes on the- entire ttaln It must not be
believed , however , that the rapidity of trains
then was KI very limited rlhortly before the
railroad from London to Greenwich was
opened for general tralllc a special train of
y.\cu cars ciowded with gentlemen nnd
ladles , covered the entire distance- the rate
of lift-six. mllw an hour There are conn-
tries where cuch it epced on tinrallroaj has
not been developed up to date.
