R. leader, who returned yester day from New York and other eastern cities after having attended the Na tional encampment of the O. A. R. at Atlantic City, now carries the distinc tion of being a member of the national administration council of the G. A. R. One of the many Interesting things which Mr. Goodbrod reports is a story of the long march of the G. A. R. at the grand review. He also affirms that the old soldiers are dying off at the rate of 150 per day according to sta tistics carefully complied at a meet ing of the council recently.

"I do II not care for office. "I wouldn't be a senator or a cabinet minister, and I doubt If I could be tempted by the offer of the presidency. For the mat ter of that, I would rather be known as a third rate, poet than as a first class statesman." V 'Well, aren't you?' Schurz shouted at him. Saturday Evening Post. .. . 8pakr and Speakora. There Is a tale to the effect that while Hon. Thomas Brackett Reed wielded the gavel in congress a gen tleman took his little boy to the gal lery of the house of representatives Looking down upon the more numer ous branch of the federal legislature, the child asked. "Father, who is that large man sitting in the pulpit with t mallet In his hand?" "He. my son," replied the fond par- i ent, "Is the bouse of representatives."

"Happens every. little while down here, where not many people have scales of their own," he explained. "They want to weigh the baby the minute it arrives.
