SENATOR JOHN T. MORGAN, OF ALABAMA-
States in the waters of Behring sea, has
met with almost universal approval,
says the New York Sun.
There is no higher democratic author¬
ity on the subject honorable of international law
and no more aud fair-minded
man in public and private life than Sen
ator Morgan, lie is a lawyer by pro
fession, and has been a member of the
senate for fifteen years, during that
time rendering long service as a mem
her of the committee on foreign re! a
tions. lie is now, as he lias been for
many years, the leader of the minority
in Unit important committee. Although
one of the mueh-talked-of confeder
ate brigadiers of congress, Sena
tor Morgan knows no politics when
an international or non-partisan sub
ject is before the senate for
discussion, and on several occasions he
has sustained the administration, re
gardless of whether it was democratic
^republican, an( i has often been found
in beaxty accord with Sehator bher
man, the chairman, and the other re
pu-n*M to K‘ <m*' av-*: ia ,ta<; :

close and constant student, a man of
the simplest habits, who spends his
nights in studying up the questions
that arise in the senate and his days in
the senate chamber, where ho is al
ways found ready to act as the spokes
man of his party. Ilis public speeches
are logical and eloquent, and it is no
task for the Alabama senator to ad
dress the senate for two or three days
at a time, when he considers the sub
ject of sufficient importance. It is said
at the state department and at the
white house that Mr. Morgan war

first, because it was proper that one
demoerat should l>« c-hosen. and,
secondly, because he was thought to he
the man best fitted by ability, habit
and knowledge of the Behring sea con
t rover v for the difficult and delicate
duties of the post
Justice Harlan was selected for much
the same reason as applied in tlie case
of Senator Morgan. He is a lawyer
who has made a specialty of interna
tional law, ami as he is a friend of
many years’ standing of both the presi
dent and Secretary Blaine, ids name
was decided upon without consultation
with him and without the exertion of
outside influence in his behalf.
J ustiee Uarian has been a hard
worker during all the years that he has
been on the supreme court bench, and,
Wing without any income whatever,
except his annual salary, has been un
able to enjoy the benefits of travel as
he ivouid hire to do The president and
Mr Blah therefore, were very glad of
the opportunity to confer upon him an
appointment that would be an honor to
him as a public man. and would afford
borne iture comforts as well. It is
said that when the question of making
the appointments first itrose, the presi
nl expressed a desire to have one of
the =i:prcme court justices chosen, and
ty ion of Justice Harlan instead
of of his /nce^bc ei^ht colleagues possesses

and then, trorn his visitor, helped lnm
to resume the thread of the con¬
versation. in response to the expres¬
sions ot pleasure at finding him looking
so well he said: “Yes, I am much better
than I have been. My mind, you must
know, has never been a£feeted,hut—'"the
: words escaped him: “You were very
I tired,” hinted the reporter. “Yes, yes,
that was it—very, very tired. I had
been working for a long time.”

! “it is a beautiful place and I am

“You are warmly attached to Mr.
; Pitou?”
“Oh, yes, indeed; Pitou is a fine gen¬
tleman, a very capable manager, been and
he speaks English. \Ve have to-”
gether nine years. He will always
manage me.”
Then he told of how lie hoped soon to
return to the stage. lie should act
sgairi in “Mavourneen,” a play he very
much liked, but if he found another
that pleased him he should take it, for
it was very tiresome night after night
, j to repeat tlie same lines. It required a
j great deal of vitality, even when in
j spired by the plaudits of a crowded
j house, to infuse the proper spirit and
animation into them. He liked best
! plays which deal with events of the
j j past century; they afford more scope
for costuming. As for the characters
he assumed, he had hut to study Irish
history and literature, and not to
create, but to be the Irishman of story
and song. Nothing more romantic and
welcome could be imagined, The
minuet was the most pleasing dance to
him. Jigs and breakdowns were so
| fatiguing when one bail to do them
again and again, and they injured the
voice. lie had not written any songs
recently, hut they were all in his head,

“How did he contrive to always have
the ruse he threw fall to the prettiest
lady in the audience?” It was a sort of
inspiration. He sought to confide it to
one yvho would preserve the flower and
the song.
He evinced great interest in the plays
now being presented and laughed honrt
fly when told how De Wolf Hopper
had now to “chirp” to the babies in
“Wang,” instead of singing and danc
ing with them. He said he was expect
ing to receive a visit from Hopper very
soon.
A little review of recent seandals con
cerning theatrical people was indulged
in, and he cordially indorsed the opinion
that the general public was quite too
quick to accept as true any evil reports
of professionals. “I have been twenty
two years in the profession,” ho said,
“and have seen more happily married
couples there than in any other walk in
life. 1 have been married for fif¬
teen years myself and have been very
happy.” Replying the congratulations
to on
his successful double play, he said,
merrily: “You see, I am determined to
be a star wherever I piay.”
lie has planned a pleasant summer at
Saratoga w-ith friends, and in Septem¬
ber he intends to start on tlie road with
a repertoire of five plays, liis manner
throughout tlie interview was most
courteous, and had it not 1 ieen for the

treacherous loss of memory and the im

lamentably evident that Seanlan, “the

Is it worth while to talk about New
port bathing dresses? There is no sum
mer resort which bathes so decorously ,
as the beautiful city by the sea. and it
appears to be the general American
opinion that bathing dresses are inter- :
esting in direct proportion to their in
decency. However, it may be said that

little variety or interest as a whole,
though often beautiful in detail. :
Broad crimson or scarlet hats lend
touches of color, and such sea nymphs •

o'clock six or eight of tlicso parasoled
or parachuted bathers were bobbing
about under their big, rainbow-tinted
bubbles, and among them was a big
Monde from Philadelphia in blue
twilled flannel or some such stuff,
gtriped in narrow lines of pale blue. A
broad pale blue sailor collar opened
down to her waist, and under it was a
pointed vest piece of the darkest lim
tcrial. Her skirt, drawers, and even
( ]er stockings were striped, and she
took the waves serenely under a striped
blue and white canopy. It wouldn’t bo
polite to call her a zebra, because she
was by long odds the handsomest wom¬
an on the beach, but it ought to be re¬
marked without fear or favor that,
stripes aside, the parasol business is
certainly ungraceful and probably un¬
comfortable.
The bathing wraps which the major¬
ity of women wear to the edge of the
water and have thrown around them by
waiting attendants the instant they
emerge are imposing affairs this sum¬
mer, long, voluminous and much la-rib¬

makes a picture of herself regularly in
a dark wash silk cloth that you hardly

itself were dripping off the battier.

It Is a raw* gift, l*iH • ’k:very ytHn
minimi who lives In a little to-mi of
Hawthorne, in tho pine woods of Flor¬
ida, possesses It to an unusual degree.
The Sunday-school to which ..lie
belongs recently gave a Humlay
Ki-hool concert, and, though she is hard¬
ly five years old, she showed such will¬
ingness to contribute to tho success of
tlio occasion that she was intrusted by
her ten<*hcr with tho recitation of a
verse.
Site applied herself to her task, and fit
the preliminary rehearsal acquitted her¬
self to the delight of her teacher and
the envy of her classmates.
The Sunday afternoon came at last
The rhure.li was crowded, and the exer¬
cises began. Tlie little girl was in t
flutter. At last the long awaited mo¬
ment arrived, and t-lm superintendent,
announced her name, Bho UkJuIihI
bravely up the aisle, and vvitli tho help
of Ids hand mounted the steps and
stood on tin- platform facing tho people.
“(Hi, whatu lot of folks ail looking at
me!” she thought.
In fuel, like many an older person In
a similar situation, that was all she
could f.lduk of. The verse which she
knew so well that she had been saying
it in her sleep she could not think of
at all.
But she was not the child to give way
to defeat without, a struggle. If she
couldn’t think of that verse, she could
of another, and so while the congrega
tion was hushed to catch tho first syl
lable from her faltering lips, she piped
up iu a shrill treble;
"N'-edlc* wi'lptnn,
Needles nn-1 Idas.
When you get kiiu rl- the trouble Is-i/Ii h "
In one respect, at least, lu-r recitation
was the sueeer of the afternoon.
