WASHINGTON NOTES
Opportunities Open to Senators
of the Loft.
OTHER ITEMS OF INTEREST
Messengers of Senate Have Risen to
Prominent Places Hon. Champ
Clark's Children Enjoyed
Tannhauer.
'WASHINGTON, Feb. IS. The life
of the doorkeekers of the Senate and
House of Representatives Is rather a
monotonous existence. The men have
but HUle to do save on occasions when
some specjal event Is announced and
the casual everyday grouping of spec
tators becomes a serious rush to get
the best seat the galleries afford.
There are compensating advantages,
however, for what many might con
sider a humdrum existence. The pay
Is good, the hours reasonably short, the
vacations long, and the opportunities
for self Instruction abundant.
These messengers, as a rule ,are men
of more than average Intelligence;
some of them have Interesting careers,
for the records of the Senate show that
several major generals, who served
with distinction and against whom luck
had turned later In life, have held
these humble positions where the du-
ties consist solely In opening and clos-
Ing doors for the admission of mem-
bers or visitors, i nese men iouow me
debates quite closely and frequently
hold heated arguments among them-
selves over disputed points of order,
On the Indian bill many points of or-
der were Invoked aud the parliamen-1
tary questions were fully discussed byj
these employes and the decision of the j
presiding offilcer accurately foresha- j
flowed. Among the senate . employees, j
the doorkeepers are known as the Sen
ators in the loft" and these "Senators"
are frequently quite as well up In par
liamentary procedure and precedents
as many of the men on Mie floor whose
votes count when votes are needed.
Up la the gallery overflowing the
chamber of the Supreme Court of the
United States there are a few rows of
benches where spectators were ac
customed to sit when this small room '
was the chamber of th Senate of the your money.

before the civil war, and when the pre- can be obtained for 50c, but the corn
sent wings occupied by the Senate and piete outfit is usually enough to cure
House had not been completed. On
the back of one of these wooden bench
es is cut the name "Arthur Pue Gor
man." This name has been covered
with paint many times but it still re
mains distinct, defying time and the
painters to efface it.
In his boyhood the late Senator Gor
man was. a page in the Senate ,and
he always was proud of the fact that
he was once a page in the distinguish
ed body in which he afterwards serv
ed as a member with such distinction.
It was while a page that he cut his
name in the back of this bench, and
when any of his particular friends vlsl- ,
ted him at the Capitol it was with gen- j
Bine pleasure that Mr. Gorman carried J
them up into the loft of the Supreme
Court and pointed out the bench where
his boyish enthusiasm had induced him
to carve his name. That name, long
after was indelibly written into the
history of the country, for Mr. Gorman
became not only a great Senator but
the leader of his party, the man upon
whom the democrats depended for
wisdom and counsel In the great isues
of the day.
Champ Clark, of Missouri, one of the j
wits of the House, tells a good story
on himself. He is fond of music, but
not much of a performer on the piano.
Some time ago he purchased a pianola
and in the evenings he devoted a por
tion of his time to turning out grand
and comic opera and church tunes for
the edification of his children. Mr.
Clark was gratified to see that the
youngsters greatly enjoyed "Tannhau
ser" and any evening when he failed
to supply something from this opera
the children clamored for it. Believing
that the youthful Clarks were devel
oping a fondness for really good music,
Mr. Clark was constrained one evening
to ask them- why it was they liked
"Tannhauser" so much.
, "Oh, papa," replied the hopeful scion
of the house of Clark, "it's fine; it
sounds so much like a lot of dogs bark
ing." Champ Clark, in telling this story,
offered the opinion that possibly he was
ralstakeala the belief that he was edu."
eating his youngsters , properly In
things musical, but continues' to" give
'Tanrihauser" as orie of the choice sel
ections of his pianola repertoire.
Thin wt-k the ilrst annual exhibi
tion of painting by contemporary
American artist was given at tho
Oonooran Gallery of Art Everybody
In Washington who is everybody was
there, from the President and Mr.
Roosevelt down, Members of OonRress
were out en masse, but It does not fol
low that because a man can talk for
hour on the Constitution that ho is
well up In art or ancient history.
Among the paintings that attracted
considerable attention was the huge
canvass of Jean Leon flerome, deplet
ing the death of Julius Caesar. Cae
sar lies stricken at the foot of Pompey's
statue. Two members who hall from
the Mississippi Valley strolling through
the hall stopped before this painting
which was admired by every lover of
art.
"What's the matter with that fel
low?" asked one of them.
"Why, don't you read history?" was
the somewhat contemptuous retort.
"The man Is Julius Caesar; he has
Just been shot by Marc Antony."
"WHISKY" COLD CURES.
Danger of Using Alcoholic Mixtures or
Coal Tar Tablets,
Th most danirerous thin that One;
can do when affected with a cough orj
cold In to use a medicine that contains!
. w),lsky or a tablet that I made of
i some coai tnr product. Putting aside
nit moral objections to filling up with
whisky or drugs, because one has a
cold, the Injurious physical effect
should be sufficient to keep one from
using these strong medicines.
The most sensible as well as the only
j scientific way to treat a cough or cold!
j j uy inhaling medication that will kill
j Ml the germs and give relief to the
j irritated mucous membrane in the nose,
i throat and lungs.
Among the few remedies that are
U3ej n this way, Hyomel stands pre
: eminent. It Is breathed through a neat
j pocket Inhaler that comes wjth every
j outfit, and the first breath of its heal
ar relieves the irritation, and Its
continued ue soon effects a thorough
cure.
the best people in Astoria always
fceep Hyomei at hand In the winter
months, and at the first sysmptoms of
a cold or bronchial trouble, use the
remedy and prevent serous and last
ing illness. If you have any doubts
as to the effects of Hyomel In curing
coughs, colds and all bronchial trou
bles, the guarantee T. F. Laurln gives
with every outfit should convince you
of its curative powers. A Hyomei out
fit costs $1, and If it does not give
satisfaction, T. F,
Laurln will return
several colds.

1ST DRINK WATER
Advice and Simple Prescription
By Eminent Authority.
A LOCAL DRUGGIST TALKS
How to Make a Splendid Remedy for
Stomach Troubles, Kdney and
Bladder Weakness and Rheu
matism. "The people here do not drink
enough water to keep healthy." ex
claimed a well-known authority. "The
kidney and bladder diseases ttnd rhen
ninlsm are mainly due t the fact that
the drinking of water, natures great
est medicine, has been neglected.
Stop loading' your system with pat
ent medicines and cure-alls; but get on
the water wagon. If you are reall
sick, why, of course, take the prop:
medicines, plain, common, vegetable
treatment, which will not shatter th
nerves or ruin the stcmnch."
When requested for stn h a prescrlp
Hon for the cure of, rheumatism an
kidney trouble the answer was: ' You
must make the kidneys do their work
They are the filters of the bloo.i. They
; "iust be made to strain out of tho
blood the waste matter and arils that
cause rheumatism; the urine must b
neutralized so it will no longer be
source of Irritation to the bladder, and,
most of all. you must keep these acid
from forming In the stomach. This 1
the cause of stomach troubles and poor
digestion. For these conditions
would suggest the following prescrlp
tlon, which js composed of only vege
table Ingredients, which can be ob
talned from any g'.'od prescription
pharmacy. Any one can mix them by
shaking well In a bottle. Fluid Ex
tract Dandelion, one-half ounce; Com
pound Kargon, one ounce; Compound
Svrup Sarsaparllla, three ounces. To
be taken In teaspoonful doses after
each meal and at bedtime, but don't
forget the water. Drink plenty and
often." This valuable Information and
simple prescription should be poste
up In each household an ! used at the
first sign of an attack of rheumatism
backache or urinary trouble, no matter
how slight.
