' 1 Should '.- I , live to be as . old as dear eld Senator Pettus was when he laid down : his long life- of labor Id usefulness, 1 should not forget the last conversation I had . with him. it was on, the Jay after the death of his venerable ! colleague and 'life-long friend, Senator Morgan,, a few weeks ago. Nearly, the whole of that day, the Senator; old and ; worn and de crepit, and grief -strickenL but faith-'. ful to his every duty, "had sat through . a tedious session of the absurd and useless Brownsville investigation at the Capitol and he was returning near the close of the day to his room in the Metropolitan Hotel. -Just .In front of the Hotel 1 met him and stopped! him -for a little chat. . , - "How are' you .feeling. General?" "It was a natural question but no sooner' were the words out of my mouth than I was sorry I had asked lt,"j fot" his manner Immediately - re minded me of his sensitiveness about feila fast growing ; decrepitude. He straightened up his large frame, and looked at me kindly, but proudly. "I feel fine," he said. '"L 'have been sitting in the Brownsville committee all day."- , .. - !'Are you going down to-night to Alabama with the body 7" "Tea," he answered. 'That was the first and only-reference made to tbs death of Senator Morgan. .' -One had but -to look at him to see that the time was not far off when he would follow,, his colleague to his last, reward.-He shifted the subject by ob serving. - . - : - "I'm not coming back to this Brownsville investigation,, he spoke very, deliberately, each word empha sized, and a slight .. pause , between each word, as he usually spoke., "I to!" em up there to-day that I wasn't , going to have anything mo' to do with any such blamed foollshlness. , And he had told them. He meant every word, top. '"What can we do? What have W got to do with it any 1 i Suppose r we were to find that the President bad exceeded 'his au thority; .'we can't - do anything . about it."

House, The Senate couldn't do -Jt. a No; the: whole thing Is nothing but a piece f blame fool ishness, and I don't propose to have anything more to do with It." . i FEEDING THE SQUIRRELS.. General Pettus boarded fori two - winters with Mrs. perry,, a. South Carolina lady, daughter-in-law of former . Provisional Governor ! Perry, of Greenville, 6.' C, who llvui near the Oapltol grounds. It was while he lived there that various newspaper writers began to . tell the stories of how the-Venerahle old man would go out every mornksg before breakfast to the Capitol grounds and feed the squirrels. , These stories were so 'nj keeping with ihis well-known tender ness towards all animals, and his af fection for little children who were .said, to have accompanied ''-him on these squirrel-feeding expeditions, that they were readily believed, ana were taken Up by newspaper and magaslne, writers till they have been' told all over tne country. One day .during the last session of , Congress I met the old man walking through the Marble Room,.. Just back of the Senate Chamber. "Where do you live now,' General?" . 1 askea. -, - I live-'way over the other side -f-of the White House.'-' "My General, that's a long distance to com before breakfast to feed the ' eaulrrels." ': 'y-A . ; . - A dry sort of a smile played about his wrinkled face, and a quaint gleam came Into his eye, as he stood in his characteristic attitude, his feet apart. end tils great big head leaning over looking down upon tne. "Humph!" he said, "I never did fee- the squirrels but but three or ro' times in my lire. When a man geta to be athousand years old rtney ran tell mos ' any kind o lies on him." And with that he walked slowly away and took his seat in the Senate Chamber. , , - Some of the obituary notices in the " papers say that about the only thing Alabama s two. venerable Senators had ' !n common was their fondness for ' chewing tobacco.. I shall .iever for ' ret ft scene I saw one day In the Sen ate Chamber.- It was that.day Sena tor Bailey gave such a really pitiful drubbing to Senator Patterson, of Col orado. who declared that the Demo cratic Senators had no right to cau cas on some question I forgot tlie ex ct nature of. The Senate Chamber was .full, floor, 'and galleries, and it. was one of the most dramatic 'Jays of the' Fifty-ninth Congress.' While were -1, fixed upon Bailey and his ' writhing victim, - . Patterson, .who- sat two ' desks,' in front .of him: that is nearly all eves. for mine and those of itwo or three others T in the press v gallery were w watching two other figures. . ... , : GIVING HIS PAL A CHEW, , In the midst of Bailey's speech. ' Senator Morgan, . who was not In his eat' on the front row . next to Pet tus, but was sitting that day on the hack row, arose and slowly moved down between tne desks till he was rtlii Hi frtltprio'ilA Knntn T-Hia ' ftad risen,: and the two old men stood In the aisle close beside each' other looking towards Bailey, When they had stood thera long enough to create the impression throughout the cham her that they : wera listening Intently to the speech.

In .abput a minute, Senator ' Pettus slowly pulled his ternd out of his pocket, and gently slipped it down till it touched the hand of Senator Morgan. Senator Morgan slipped his hand down between himself and Sen ator Pettus, up tlose to the desk, where they thousht it was completely hidden from view and broka off a chew. Senator Pettus had lent him a chow of tobacco, but he did not pro pose that the thousands of visitors in the Senate nor' any of the Senators snould see it The old man kept his chew hid in his hand while he slowly conveyed It to his mouth, and the two men slowly and Indifferently separat ed, both trying to ; look' innocent, even as a boy who feels himself about to get caught tampering with, the su gar bowL I have no doubt in the world . that both of these dear old men Went to their graves under the firm Impression that on that one day In the Senate they deceived the pub lic and iwade them think that they were standing there Intently listening to the debate, and nothing more. And I have no, doubt either that this was on of the very few occasions that either one of the men ever tried to fool the public. And they succeeded, too. in the main, for it Is exceeding ly doubtful if more than a half dozen. In tne forge assembly saw them, t - PJETTUS GLARISSIMUS. , , Senator Pettus 'was the best beloved of all' the Senators on either side of the Chamber,,, and whil he rarely ever took the ' floor in 4bate, none fnere would be missed more than he will be. Yet it would seem strange to see him there ' without Senator Morgan. It will be many and many a year before the Senate again sees two such ' picturesque figures. Both f them were men of, the highest type of character. It is safe to say that not once since either entered the Sen ate has any one even charged that either ane was not absolutely honest and in their public as well as in their private lives above , reproach. And none in the Senate were more inde- pendent than they, none who spoke and acted as they from . their own convictions, without regard to tne opinions of their colleagues or their constituents. Yet they were much beloved- by their constituents at home as by their colleagues in the Senate. ., . - ZACH McGHEK. NEGRO BOOZER ROBBED. Tw Feunllesft Women Given Police Hospitality -Mr. D.
