Common.
W.VSHINOTOM. March TO Th long
tln;rg In the Amerlran Congress, itrlklng
m they ara, ar outrank both In number
and time by the KnglUh parliamentary
tenure Some of the British record! make
Ten the long- services of Senators Morrill,
Alllgon and Shernuin look commonplace.
Wlillam Ewart Qladatone made a con
tlnutnis parliamentary record of slxty-slx
ytar. .lie was prime minister twice, and
beld varlour subordinate admlnlstvatlve
offlrtei under other premiers. Nevertheless,
whl'e holding these places he Continued to
be a member of the House of Commons, to
whlfh he wae first elected In 1832, when but
Ti years old.
Herein Is where the English legislator has
distinct advantage over his American
: cousin. He ran enter the commons aa a
mere boy. He does not have to relinquish
Ma -place In the house to accept an admlnis-
tratlve position. Gladstone's was a long
K political career, but It was not an unusual
me In 'English annals. He represented the
' I'nlversity of Oxford for eighteen consecu
tive years.
Lord ralmerston was for fifty-eight years
continuously a member of Psrliement. He
entered the commons at SJ. and for twenty
consecutive years represented that ether
great English university Cambridge. He
was premier of England twice. For nine
teen years he was continuously secretary of
war under five different administrations.
Ha waa secretary of atate twenty-five
years. .
, Hlr Robert Peel waa elected to the House
nf Commons when but ZI. and waa continu
ously a member of that body for fifty-seven
year. He was three times prim minister,
and almost continuously for forty years an
office holder.
Iird John Kussell also entered the House
of Pommcns at tl and served continuously
In tj.atnd th House of Ixrds tor sixty-
five years. Ha was In otTloe two-thirds of
the time Aid premier twice. '
Gladstone s great rival. Benjamin Disraeli,
did not get Into the House of Commons
until he waa SS, having been defeated in
several previous trials. At first derided and
hooted, down, he eventually became leader
of the house and was prime minister twloa.
His parliamentary career lasted only forty
four years. .
E. J. Bmlth-Slanley. afterward Lord
Derby, was elected to the House of Com
mons at 21, and was In Paraliament forty
six years continuously. He waa prime
minister three 'times.
Sir Robert Wajpole, to go further afield,
entered the "house at 2S and held various
offices, among them the premiership twice,
the las. lme for twentytwo years con
tinuously, when he resigned and was
created earl of Oxford. Ha was In Parlia
ment forty-four year.
These do not exhaust the list. They are
cited because they are familiar names to
Americans. Their extreme youth upon
entering the commons Is a remarkable
feature of these casts. . Poubtless more
than a thousand men have served In Parlia
ment mora than fifty years each continu
ously who first began their careers In the
house and who entered public life under yi
William Pitt tli younger enured the
house at tl, waa chancellor of the ex
chequer at 21 and prime minister at 84, and
aft 25 was the most popular snd powerful
minister of modern times, the greatest
tubject that England had seen for many
generations. He resigned In 1801, after
eighteen years of almost absolute power.
He died at 47. This great career of a mere
boy waa no accident. Wlillam Pitt was a
prodigy, like our Henry Clay, who was
choson speaker of th house oolncldent
with his entry Into that body and coi
Unued to be Its speaker during his entire
tenure of about ten years.
American rrprettentatlvls and senators
hae not the advantage of entering public
life at an early age. Under direct consti
tutional provision they ara Ineligible until
23 and a) years eld. respectively, for mem
bership In the house and senate. Vary
few. In the prevailing; tendency of publla
opinion, reach the house at S. Our rep
resentatives, unaided by the dlvlna right
of casta, are generally mature men before
they arrive.
For instance, the late Justin S. Morrill
of Vermont was M when elected to oon
gress In lib; Senatur W. B. Allison, holding
the Bex( highest record of tenure, was S3
when elected to the house In 1863. John
aherman was SI whan elected to the house
In 1854, the same year Mr. Morrill came
down from Vermont. Their several ages
are about the general run of the thousands
of representatives and senators who have
come and gone.
In nearly every house, however, there
are two cr three young fellows who barely
oome within the constitutional limit. Sev
eral of our most conspicuous statesmen of
past times entered the house at about
Among them John Randolph of Roanoke,
John C. Breckenrldgs cf Kentucky, William
R. King of Alabama and Rlahard M. John
son of Kentucky, All of them subsequently
served In the senate, and all except Ran
dolph were vice presidents of the United
States. Breckenrtdge, afterward a con
federate mayor-general and secretary of
war, was one of the defeated candidates
for the presidency In I860, when Lincoln
was elected.
John V. Wright of Tennessee was elected
to the house In 1854 at the age cf 26 and
Augustus C. Dodge of Iowa, afterward
eeiuUor, was elected at IS.
Speakers Hunter, Ccbb and Grow en
tered the house at Tl. Bpeaker John W.
Taylor at A, Speakers Polk and White at
K, Bpeaker Colfax at tl and Bpeaker Blaine
at -32. Speaker Clay was elected first to
the nenata at S9, being undeiy the constitu
tional age.
President Franklin Pierce was a repre
sentative at W and senator at 12, President
Andrew Jackson at 29 and aenator at to,
President James Buchanan at tl and sen
ator at 41, President James A. Garfield
st 2 and elected senator at 48. but made
president before he took his seat In the
senate, and President William McKlnley
at 12.
Various other American political notabil
ities entered the house at these youth
ages: Francis W. Pickens and Alex.
Ramsey at 17. Fernando Wood and Edward
McPheraoa at M. John C. Calhoun, Bam
Houston and Stephen A. Douglas at 2t:
Danell Webster, Alex. H. Stephens and
Roscoe Cockling at to; John J. Crittenden,
Allen O. Thurman, Thomas A. Hendricks
and William 8. Holman at tl. John H.
Ketcham, the record holder of house ten
ure. wj tt, when first alerted to that body.
In the congress Just expired there were
several members Just 'barely above the
constitutional age when first chosen. Mor
ris 8heppard of Texas, the youngest, waa
a few months over tt when elected Mi ltuO;
John J. VI tigers Id of New York. . a few
months over 24 and Burton L. French of
Idaho 27. ' '
Senator Joseph W. Bailey of Texas, at
43. has a record of sixteen years conseou
tlve service. Aside from Mr. Bailey, Mr.
LsFolette la now the only . senator who
entered congress under 10. Ke got Into
the house In 1884 at SB. serving six years.
LaFollette Is nlns years older than Bailey.
Others who entered congress young are
Senators Dolllver and Kean at 80, Elklns
and Burkett at tl. Hale at 32, Allison, Car
ter and Long at 14, Cullom a,nd Burrows
at 85, Teller and Lodge at 14.
Still others were past middle ags when
they entered congress, notably Pettua, the

Bacon. '66; Morgan. 63; Foraker, SI; Till

FATHER. OF PINK LEMONADE
Ortgslaatar of Clreas Beverage Dis
covered stad His Methods
- Revealed.
When one fondly recalls pink lemonade,
the circus snd boyhood, he should know,
If he does not, that Magistrate Levi F.
Walter of Bethlehem, Pa., Is the man who
gave color to the picture thus conjured up
by the mind's eye. He waa the Inventor
of the rose-tinted beverage through which
you and your girl used to Imagine you
could ths more clearly scan the heavenly
visions In tights and tinsels, for which
every boy with a lusty boy's Instincts used
to Imagine that he would willingly forsake
home and mother and "travel with the
show."
Who would imagine that pink lemonade
had. In the good old days of ths sawdust
arena, meant violence, bloodshed, attempt
at poisoning and boycotts for Its innocent
Inventor?
It was the depressing effect of a bullet
wound received In the third day's battle
at historic Gettysburg; the condition of be
ing very neariy down and out, with
wife and family dependent on him at Eaa.
ton. that drove good old 'Squire Walter,
then not ao aged, to such a desperate ex.
pedlent as the invention of the pink con
coction. No one need Imagine from this ststement
that Justice Wslter had to wade through
bloody seas to get his crimson and his In
spiration for the sweet Invention. Far from
It, at the outset. One day' Walter was sent
to the confectioner's to order candy. While
waiting for II he watched a boy coloring
thS viscid mse, which was lster destined
to tickle ths palate of ths bucollo youth
In the shape ef red-and-white-etriped mint
sticks. Mr. Walter noticed. that the boy.
In order to produce the blight red color of
ths candy, every now and then poured a
few drops of "some deep red stuff" Into
the sweetness. Finally he1 asked ths hoy:
"What Is the stuff that gives ths candy
Its beautiful red color?" He said It was
boiled cochineal. Walter quisled ths boy
until he had ths modus operandi of the
barber's pole candy down perfectly.
"If cochineal gives the candy Us beauti
ful ejolor, why not lemonade?" was the In
ward query. And then there was born the
Idea which quickly germinated Into ths full
blossom of the pink lemonade of circus
fame.
Stepping Into a drug store on his way
horns, ha bought a quantity of cochineal
and a lot of lemons, which In those days
were not such disreputable things. Manu
featuring a lot of lemonade, and coloring
It a vivid red, he next day, accompanied
till brother to a sale, and ths red bever
age made Its debut under ths name of
"strawberry lemonade." It scored an In
stant hit
Several days later ths Great London Cir
cus came m Easton, and Walter pitched
his stand of candy, peanuts, cake and pink
lemonade (for the red was fading as the
profits grew), as nsar the circus grounds
as he possibly could. It was a warm day,
and this, combined wtlh ths color of the
wonderful new drink, swept across the
pocketbooks of the multitude to the tune
of 6S.
The men who had the "candy and re
freshment prlvlleges"wltb the circus paid
ths proprietors of the letter 14,000 for the
season. They were not slow In catching;
onto Wajer's wonderful sales, snd they
Ukd to find out how the latter gave his
lemonade Its wonderful tempting color.
They begged, cajoled and finally threatened
him with violence If he would not tell. But
a man who had faced death on the battle
field of Gettysburg on the third day was
not so easily frightened, and then they
'tried bribery, with no better success. Next
day, with a wagon laden with a new sup
ply of red lemonade and other stuff, Mr.
Walter followed the circus and pitched his
tent near the show grounds, as ho had
done tha day before, and ths ruby-colored
drink flowed In streams.
Next year, In 1068, Walter, with his pink
lemonade, secured the refreshment prfv
liases for Ben Gardner's circus for tl loo
I a season, snd then his real circa career
J began, and continued tor sixteen years.
and within that span of years he saw tha
evolution of the circus from the hoof and
ths axle to the monster railway trains.
A genial, modest and retiring man la Mr,
Walter, and it does not taks long to learn
that he "saw ths world and mingled with
many men as one of them." Philadelphia
