HOWELL GIVES HIS EXPERIENCE The Boys Will Not Be So Close to the Statesmen. DISADVANTAGES POINTED OUT es Mr. William Howell, private secretary to Assistant Secretary McAdoo and formerly @ page in the House of Representatives, does not admire the electric call system just introduced into the House. In conver- sation with a Star reporter on this sub- ject today, he said: “For the sake of all concerned, it.is to be regretted that the members of the House have an electric call system in connec- tion with the pages. When a boy enters the Capitol in such capacity he goes with the express purpose of some day becoming a great man himself, or at least getting a knowledge of the laws of his country and of the rules of procedure, as well as forming the acquaintance of public men. “Now, if the boys are to be stationed in the lobby of the hall, a rendezvous for Congressmen, who are fatigued and desire @ nap or a quiet talk with some colleague, away from the nolse and confusion of the floor, they will rot have any of these ad- vantages, and the new system will occa- sion many arnoyances to the members. Many times during my career as page on the floot I would be accosted by a mem- ber in some remote corner of the building, distant from the legislative chamber, and questioned as to the nature of the debate or roll cail. Always, because of my pres- ence on ths floor, I was able to give a satisfactory reply. Under the new rules a boy cannot possibly keep himself in- formed of the nature cf the proceedings of the House, nor fulfill in that one par- ticular what hes always been required of @ page, and what I understand, is part of his duties. Then, again, many members desire one particular page to answer their wants. Some Inconventiences, “The bell arrangement will very likely bring possibly a lad of but seven or eight years, when a page in his teens having ability and strength is required. As is often the case, in the earlier hours of the day, the force may all be engaged,vut with the call the member is unaware of this. Frequently opportunities arise and cisap- pear in a moment to get consideration on bills of a private nature. Who will be within arm’s reach to run to the bill room or carry the proposed law to the clerk's desk? Each chief page with his respective battalion will be in the rear of the hall, closeted like a jury, ignorant of outside proceedings. Often when such occasions have arisen I have seen every page occu- pied, including the chief pages, and chanc- ing to be in myself have answered three or four members at a time. The bell sys- tem never could accomplish this: First, because it would be well nigh impossible for one boy in the beginning to remember three or four desk numbers; and, second, the session will be almost, if not entirely, gone before he familiarizes himself with the locality of the 365 seats. Handicapped in Learning Names. “Also, the beys, who will be new under the next House on account of change of administration therein, with the electric system will be greatly handicapped in learning the names of new members and the states from which they come—a thing that can only be acquired by being within the immediate vicinity of. the Speaker's desk during a roll call. The new system prohibits this. The annunciatar, no mat- ter how costly or fine the mechanism, is likely at the most critical moment to re- fuse to respond, and the consequence will be worry and discomfort for both member and page. In all cases a boy on the floor can be of much more service to the mem- ber than in the lobby, beside advancing himself. Under the old~system of hand- clapping, during his leisure moments the page had many ways of making a few extra pennies, either by soliciting auto- graph signatures or circulating speeches and petitions pro and con on pending leg- islation. A Short Life Predicted. “The resolution introducing the new fea- ture passed, Ike many other obnoxious bills, in the eleventh hour, when members were willing to vote yea on anything re- gardiess of their convictions, for the sake of similar favors. No doubt many reforms are essential, but the page service would be much better were Congress to enact a law excluding boys under fourteen years trom positions on the page roll. “Besides, boys will be boys, and when concentrated in the lobby a tussel or good story told by one of them is apt to make them all forget that an annunciator or House of Representatives ever existed. The call not only deprives the little fel- lows of the former close association with statesmen, but places them on a level with an ordinary servant. Why wet cap the climax and uniform the boys, calling them “buttons?” “In my oninien the electric system will be short-lived, and the man who wanted his ideas thus put In operation will suc- cumb to the foliy of his mistake SHE REFUSED HIS GIFT. A Tragedy is Awaiting Him When He Comes Back From Europe. From the Chicago Record. ‘The young man might have become the husband of the girl, only one night when they were at a little party she drank a cocktail that was playfully offered to her. He felt it his duty to reprimand her mild- ly. She resented his interference, and the eugagement was broken off. He sought forgetfulness in travel, while she, with a woman's enterprise, became en- gaged to another young man. A wedding invitation was sent to the traveler as a peace offering, and as he had recovered from his first grief he sent con- ratulations, and also wrote to one of his riends and directed him to purchase some suitable wedding gift and send it to the happy pair in his (the rejected one's) name. Now, this friend, not being acquainted with the circumstances under which the first engagement had been terminated, and knowing that the bride and groom had Iib- eral notions as to the sort of an entertain- ment to be provided for callers, bought a hardsome sideboard, with all sorts of bot- tles and giasses and mixed drink ap- pifances, and sent the glittering bar room array to the bride’s house. Imagine, if you can, the fury of the bride. “As she explained to one of her friends: “He might as well have told me to go ahead and drink myself to death.” Perhaps the traveler doesn’t know that his wedding present has been sent back, and 1s in storage, awaiting his arrival in Chicago.

From the Utica Observer. Chas. Pardee of Watertown, who commit- ted suicide Wednesday evening near Great Bend, a few miles from that city, was a bachelor miser, said to have been worth over $100,000, of which $50,000 Is in real estate at Denver. He was seventy-six years old. The deed was done by cutting his throat, and the immediate cause was the failure of a man to whom he had loaned $3,300 without se- curity. He was a carpenter by trade. Work- ing hard and living in a miserly way, lie ac- cumulated considerable money. When forty years old he was obliged to quit his trade by cataracts forming on his eyes. He be- came a money lender. He lived ina hut till two years ago, when it burned to the ground, and Pardee narrowly escaped deaih. He slept in the police station at Watertown the next night rather than pay for lodging ata hotel. He at the home of Emory Pennock, near at Bend, when he com- mitted suicide. He had stopped the house after learning that his creditor’s property was In the hands of an assignee. The fam- ily went to church, leaving him alone, re- turning to find him lying on the floor with his throat cut from ear to ear, and the knife in the blood by his side. +oo—_____ By Another Name.

W. Va., was in Charleston: recently, and has proposed to the State Historical and Antiquarian Society that if it would send a taxidermist to Hamlin. the society could secure a monster bird, of # Kind never be- fore seen by any one in West Virginia. The feathered monster is described by Mr. Mid- kiff, from measurements taken by himself and W. W. Adkins of Hamlin, who killed the bird at the mouth of Vabnatters creck, with five bullets from his rifle, while hunt- ing deer on Monday. The bird is seven feet four inches from Hp to tip, four feet from tip of bill to tail, flat bill four inches long and three inches wide, somewhat similar to that of a duck, web feet, covering near- ly a square foot of area each; neck nine- teen inches long, legs about eleven inches long, and about one ond one-half inches through below the feathers; plumage dark brown, relieved on the wings and breast by light blue shading. The bird when first seen was circling high in the air, but came down very quickly and alighted in the wa- ter, where Adkins got a good shot at it, crippling its wing. Adkins attempted to capture the strange fowl alive, but it was so vicious that he could not get near it without killing it, which required five bul- lets. toe Dr. Foerster of Berlin has been sentenced to three months’ imprisonment, after having been convicted of lese majeste in the pub- lication of an article in his paper, the Ethische-Kulture.
