of the senate command a good deal of public attention on account of his position as chairman of the chicago convention benco it may be interesting to learn a little story which the chicago times tells about this gentleman who generally enjoys the reputation of being one of the readiest speaker in the federal upper chamber his precision of language and ac curay of stating record facts have given him much credit among tho statesmen who rarely appeared upon the public scene as orators without being flanked wath a supply of manuscript lie always desires it to be understood that ho studies and then buttera the thoughts suggested by them or they come o lam while upon his feel in the act of oration but a young man who has been so unfortunate as to room in haars hoars neighborhood tells a different story this young man in question is very fond of quiet lie does not like to be disturbed in the morning he left one room bebau e of the neighborhood of a livery stable opening into an alley back of his room the horses thrashed about BO he had to go away n calling at ilie house ho now lives he was given a room upon the game floor with senator hoar the latter did not have hb annily with him an was
