"I always smoke a pipe," and. so saying, he pulled out a stralgnt stemmed briarwood teg-an to fill the jowl. "You like a pipe?" said the Chautauqua member In a tone whii -was h.ii: affirmative and half ir.

"I have smoked a pipe for the ever since I began studying law." was the reply, "and that, as you know, was some time ago. tt Isn't necessary to say that I like a pipe Here Senator pe.r.s»'d a moment, and. after blowing out a big cloud of tmoke, he said: "I am inclined to thlr.k that my fondness for the pipw la a. fact has arpre-; I by the.

Assemblyman Cotton, of Kings, was sitting in one of the reporters' chairs just under the gavel of the Speaker, last Wednesday, when John J. Sloane.

of Yonkers, the only Democratic Reprosentaiive from Westchester County, happened to pass by. "Why. hello. Sloanel" exclaimed the Brooklyn Assemblyman. "What's the matter with you? you recognize one of your friends?" Mr.

Bloane turned around abruptly at this, and in a somewhat condescending manner said: "Mr. Cotton, I fear not. Since I have come into possession of a box at the Metropolitan Opera House, and Prince Henry has agreed to have the use of it as my host. I am not speaking to Tom. Dick and Harry more." Mr 1 "otton was still struggling with his feelings when the Yonkers statesman added: "If you don't believe me.

"I didn't." was the quick answr. "Only my picture got there. You see. the box belot.gs to Mr. John Sloane, of New-York, and they ran my picUire Instead of his." Mr Cotton was lost golnn to lausb, when Asflemblyman from Yonkers held him up by gaylng: "In spite of Shakewpeare, there is a lot in a name.

In explanation the goes on to say bill provides that the owner of a vineyard la County! or his leywep. or his hired man.

Haviland owns a vineyard, and his experience, is willing to affidavit that robins eat grapes, ar.d that only way stop them from doing it la to shoot them. Mr. says tn.it absent treatment, although may a. good thing for Christian Scientists, has iiitle, If any. effect on robins.

At a hearing on the bills before the Assembly on Codes the other day. both nur. appeared and earnestly pleaded fur tiie favorable report on his bill.

The naturally was considerably perplexed, and, as a last extremity, decided to report both bills and let the two men tight it out on the of the Assembly. The ttro bills accordingly came up for debate at the session on a Monday night. The Prince bill was the Hrst en the calendar, and as the clerk was running the bills off at a highly geared speed and with so much momentum that he could hardly stop himself, the Prince bill was advanced to the order of final passage. When the Banders bill was reached one conscientious legislator from an Adirondack district, who for some reason compared the bills, moved to send the bill back to committee, as he said there was no need of two tnlls to pact) a legislative cat. Assemblyman Prince eagerly agreed to sudi a plan, ami already foresaw the downfall of his rival, when Mr.

Sanders arose and told how many labor people wanted i la bill. Mr Prince Immediately sprang to his feet md told how many labor unions he represented, whereupon the two nmn grappled in a debate which threatened to take up the entire evening: The discussion had just reached a point where Mr Prince that fools never changed their minds, wnen Assemblyman of New-York. arose and said with considerable emotion "I to point of order. I think that thin ought to be a legislative debate, ar.d not a discussion as to which man represents the cost labor." "The point is well taken," replied the Speaker. as with a stroke of his gavel, he called the house to uer.

KEPT THE SEXATOR FROM HIS TRAIN. Senator Davis, of Lancaster, Erie County, had intended to take the noon train home one Thursday, and, without consulting Senator Ellsworth, the President of the Senate, he telephoned down to the station at twenty minutes to the hour, for a chair in the parlor car. A irter to the hour, the Erie County Senator arose In his seat, but on asking to be excused, he was met with this answer from the President: "Yesterday was a short session. Too many Senators have been excui already. Is it very important." "Very important:" shouted Senator Davis, but his answer was ignored.

It was now ten minutes to the time, with a running chance "I atchlng the train. The Krie County member was just preparing to beat a stealthy retreat, when Senator Ellsworth brought down the gavel with a vigorous and the words: "The Senate will now go Into the committee of the whole. Senator Davis will please take the chair." The Senator from Lancaster dropped his and his jaw at the same time. Bui there was no way out of it. A lively debate then ensued.

Several times Senator Ellsworth tried to be recognized, hit each time some Tammany member caught the chalrman's eye instead. After the session, as the two men met. Senator Ellsworth was just about to complain of the way he had been treated, when Senator Davis said: "I only wanted to get even with you. That's all." The Senator from Lockport eviden Ij took in situation, tor he h.ul some difficulty in frowning down a smile. WRCDI 3 EN.
