SEN. CONGER QUITS AS ALIOS DID He Resigns Before the Senate Can Vote Him Out of Office AN ATTACK ON HIS CRITICS Accusing Senator, In Bitter Address, Declares That Only by Becoming a Liar Could He Remain a Member In Good Standing. Albany, N. Y., April 12.—Rising to a question of personal privilege In the Senate, Senator Benn Conger, after reading a remarkable statement, ment, handed in his resignation, to take effect at once. He left the cham ber quietly and without a farewell handshake from any one. Conger's action astonished all, even his stanchest supporters. Although he had been Informed that If he did not resign he would be expelled, he had declared up to the last minute that ho would fight for vindication. In explaining the reasons for his resignation Senator Conger took his last jab at ex-Senator Allds and de clared that he was satisfied with the outcome, as he had discharged a duty not only to his party and the people of the State but to himself. Conger's last words constituted a vigorous indictment of Senators who he declared, voted to elevate Allds to the position of President pro tem, when they knew him to be unfit. His high-pitched voiee assuming a tone of ridicule, he announced that some of those same Senators were numbered among those whose expressed deter mination to vote for his own expulsion compelled him to retire of his own volition, despite the public service he had rendered the State. There was irony In Conger's tremu lous voice when he surveyed the cham ber with a glance and declared: "I have no desire to remain a member of this great legislative body if my presence gives offense to any of its members." In pronouncing his valedictory Sen ator Conger referred to the band of legislators which held sway in 1901 — the dayd of the Black Horse Cavalry —as the "worst gang of plnnderers that ever infested this or any other Capitol." From the time Senator Conger was recognized by the Chair until he left the Senate chamber after announcing his resignation there was not a single interruption or open comment by any of the Senators. He has left for his home in Groton with his family. LANSING, MICH., GOES DRY. Grand Rapids and Port Huron Claimed by the "Wets" by Good Majorities.

Frederic Remington, the illustrator, fresh from a Western trip on which he had been making studies of In dians and cowpunchers and things outdoors, met an art editor who in sisted upon dragging him up to an ex hibition of very impressionistic pic tures. "You don't seem enthusiastic," re marked the editor as they were com ing. "Didn't you like them?" Remington, remembering what he had been told as a boy, counted ten before replying. Then: "Like 'em? Say! I've got two maiden aunts in New Rochelle that can knit better pictures than those!" The Bar -Habit. The pernicious habit of drinking standing at the bar is of Puritanical New England origin, the theory being that a man would sooner get drunk and go home If standing than sitting —a whisky custom, but very bad for beer which New Englanders knew not, for to stand to the bar to drink and to keep drinking to stand there Is not gentlemanly nor wholesome. Great Friends. "Friendship, boys and girls," said a member of a provincial educational committee, "Is a thing to be culti vated and practiced by all of us. Read and ponder over the stories of the great friendships of sacred and profane history. Take them for your models—David and Jonathan, Damon and Pythias, and Scylla and Charyb dls." —London Daily News. Pretty Good. A boy was asked to explain the dif ference between animal Instinct and human Intelligence: "If we had In stinct," he said, "we should know everything we needed to know with out learning it; but we've got reason, and so we have to study ourselves 'most blind or be a fool." Virtue of White Clothes. White clothes do not get dirty any sooner than black clothes; they sim ply show the dirt more—greatest vir tue and advantage. The Ancient Brahmins. The Brahmins were the lawyers, priests, professors, the.sole instructed class, the sole authorities on taste, ; morality, the sole depositaries of what- , ever stood In the place of science. Everybody was to minister unto them, everybody to give way to them. The j Brahmin was above the law. He was ; "not to be subjected to corporal pun- - lshment, must not be imprisoned, or fined, or exiled, or reviled." In the ■ law of the Vishnu it was written: "The Brahmins sustain the world. It ! is by the favor of the Brahmins that ; the godß reside In heaven." Under English rule and Ideas the ancient ! cast has lost some of its prestige, but is still a forcible reminder of its form er grandeur. Japanese Customs. A writer, describing scenes on Jap- J anese railways, says when a native ! lady enters the carriage she slips her feet from her tiny shoes, stands upon , the seat, and then sits demurely with ' her feet doubled beneath her. A mo ment later she lights a cigarette, or j her little pipe, which holds just enough to produce two good whiffs of smoke. All Japanese people sit with their feet upon the seat of the car, and not ! as Europeans do. When the ticket collector —attired in a blue uniform ~ enters the carriage he removes his cap, and twice bows politely. He re- | peats the bow as he comes to each 1 passenger to collect the tickets from j them. I SjPJTED- A RSBEH AfiOffSSS Ample Latest Model "Kiinjror" bicycle ftimirher! by tit.
