Amos Cummings had a sort of political godfather, an Irishman, who used to exer- cise a watchful care over the doings of the Tammany Congressman. When Cum- mings was chairman of the Naval Commit- tee, he made a great speech in the House on the subject of the marine architecture from the “earliest times down to the present. When he went over to New York, after the speech, his old iriend met him and took him to task. “What 1s it you don’t like about that speech ?'” asked Cummiags. *“Now, Amos, me boy, it was a grand spache, full av fine wurruds and figgers galore, bul yez missed wan important in- stance that Oi shud have tho't yez wud have remimbered. Noah—he built the ark, Amos, and yez gave him no credit at all,’’ Cummings has said he doesn’t know yet whether the old man was poking fun’ at his speech or whether he was in dead earnest about the important historical ref- erence that he had omitted.—Washington Post.
