T Is not generally recalled that Senator Henry Cabot
Lodge, that rarest of products of the republic a
scholar In politics was once a devotee at the shrino
of the roller skate. Always an enthusiastic pedes
trian when the roller skating craze ivas at Its height a
season or two ago, the learned statesman from Massa
chusetts, although then past the sixty year mark, decided
to learn the art The senator, who Is far more active than many men half his

age,' succeeded In mastering It after a lesson or two and-
for some time regularly patronized a certain fashlonablo
rink. The end came one day when In executing an un
usually Intricate figure the senator took a tumble that
might easily have broken a bone or dislocated a joint
or two. Fortunately It did neither, but since that time
Mr. Lodge has renounced all rinks as vain If not empty
things. A brisk walk of half n dozen miles or so now
fully satisfies his craving for exercise.

Representative Sant Klrkpatrick of Iowa used to be
an Internal revenue officer before ho came to congress.
He has had many thrilling experiences, having been a
target for moonshiners' bullets on scores of occasions.
Three times at least he received serious wounds In these
encounters. The Hon. Sant, as he Is referred to by his
constituency, is now well past seventy and served from
the beginning to the close of the civil war as a first lieu
tenant In Company K, Second Iowa Infantry. Inci
dentally he Is the only civil war veteran representing
Iowa in cither house.

Representative Clyde Tavenner of Illinois Is the only
man In congress who Is doing dally newspaper work In
connection with his congressional duties. Ho corresponds with a hundred
papers.

Out In Solano county, Cal., old timers remember Associate Supremo Court
Justice Joseph McKenna from the fact that he never seemed to know when
he was "licked." As a boy ho had a reputation for
gameness and later on, after encountering many diffi
culties, became successively district attorney and repre
sentative in tho state legislature from the county. When
ho had enough of theso offices ho essayed a trip to con
gress. Twico he tried, and twice ho was 'beaten, though
each time by a close margin. Then he rested on his
laurels for years. Apparently he was out of politics for
good. But if tho people Ihought McKonna was through
McKenna thought otherwise. All tho time ho had his
eye on that free ticket to the capital. There was a redis
ricting of the state, and the present nssoclate justice
announced his candidacy again for congressional honors.
This time ho was successful by a good safe margin, and
from that time to tills his star has never waned. In
congress he gained the intlinate friendship of the late
President (then Major) McKlnloy, who appointed him to
succeed Justice Field In 189S.

Year after year tho party had split on this purely hirsute question. Tho "long

crats. Consequently there was always friction, though this dldnt matter
much, as far as results were concerned, as tho district was normally Repub

AN IDEAL SUMMER HOME.
A well to do physician has
built what ho calls an Ideal sum
mer homo. It, consists mainly
of verauda space and an enor
mous and luxuriant garden.
"TJw house Itself," ho says,
"ls"malnly a place to stop In dur
ing rainy spells. Tho piazzas
aro our real home."
And theso piazzas are of all
kinds loggias for sleeping rooms
or, aatthey aro familiarly called,
"sleeping porches," an outdoor
dining room, a piazza kitchen
inclosed in latticework, a roomy ?
ground floor vcrnnda. whlfeh lie
4 calls tho "outdoor parlor," and
$ last, but not least, n roof sitting
room.
Most of tho furnishings of the &
house aro of the rustic variety
or of such materials as will en
dure all kinds of weather.
"My country homo," tins good
doctor explains, "is Intended to
offer complete freedom from caro
to us nil, mother and lwusewlfo
included."
Tho kitchen, where tho food is
cooked, is separated from tho
main part of tho house. It ls
In a ono story wing at tho back,
with an open air dining room be
tween it and tho house proper.
Tills dining room is opened to
tho "great outdoors" on two op
posite sides, and thoro are roll
ings as on an ordinary veranda.
Waterpproof curtains that can
bo dropped ' In stormy weather
aro attached to tho celling at
each of theso sides. A largo
skylight abovo gives plenty of
light at such times, and in clear
weather It can bo opened, mak
ing this delightful place still
moro completely nn outdoor din
ing room. Tho breezes that con
tinually float through the two
opposite open sides of this room
keep away all tho heat and
smells from the kitchen.
A STRANGER stopped ono even
ing at nn inn in nn Italian
f-fk hamlet. A girl In tho pictur
esque costume of the country
was setting tho table for supper.
"Is that your daughter?" asked the
stranger of tho landlord.
"Yes, slgnor. Marina is my child,
and a good child she is. Never has she
given me tho slightest trouble. Every
body loves her."
"She has n sad look."
"That is because she has come to the
marriageable ago and I have no dot to
give her. She loves a young man, Gull
eino Lulgl, a sheep tender, but be is
very poor; besides, ho is a dreamer, or
ho fancies art which is tho same thing.
Instead of watching tho sheep, he
spends his time sketching them. Lost
week ho lost throe sheep and was dis
charged on Saturday. It is this just
now that makes Marina sad."
"Is that one of his sketches that
ram hanging on the wall?"
"Yes, slgnor."
The supper was brought in by the
little maid, who stood opposite the
stranger while ho ate, waiting for his
orders with her hands demurely folded
and a faraway look in her eyes.
Shortly after supper Gullemo was
sent for. When the table was cleared
the young fellow came in, wondoring,
as did Marina and the landlord, what
was wanted of himy Tho stranger went
to the wall and took down the picture
of tho ram.
"This ram," ho said, "is out of draw
ing. Tho foreshortening .Is bad, but of
course foreshortening ls very difficult
Let mo show you how It should be
done."
Taking a pencil, ho swiftly sketched
a background around tho animal, rank
lng tho outline of a cliff at Its feet.
"Ah, slgnor, it will stop off tho cliff!"
said Guliemo, delighted with the life
that had been infused into the drawing.
"Ah, signer," he added- after a pause,
"If I could but do that!"
"You may not do It In figures, for
your talent lies in nnlmals. You are '
rather a Landsecr than a Bougucroau.
Nevertheless you will ono day be a
great painter."
Tho next morning tho stranger took
his departure, and, before doing so, sent
tho picture, placing flrst his name on
the corner, to nn nrt dealer in Paris to
be sold.
"I go to Florence," ho said to tho
landlord. "In a few weeks I will re
turn this wny and will stop with you
ngaln."
Ono morning a month later tho stran
ger reappeared at tho inn and was re
ceived by tho landlord and Mnrlna.
"Where is Gullemo?" he demanded.
"Ah, slgnor, since you wero bore ho
has not found another situation. Ho is
starving."
"Send for him. I have a letter for
him," said tho traveler briefly, and a
few moments later the lad was before
him.
"Gullemo," said the stranger, "how
wouldvyou like to go with mo to Paris
to study art?"
"Oh, slgnori" exclaimed the youth,
catching Ills breath.
"Here," ho said, opening the letter
and taking out the rectangular paper,
"is tho means for your education."
Ho handed a check to tho boy, be
fore whoso eyes danced the figures 10,-
000 francs.
"If you are a steady fellow and do
not yield to tho temptations of Paris,
if you wish to return and marry Ma
rina, I will make another sketch for
her dot."
A few moments passed before tho
two young people could realize what it
all meant Then with true native Ital
ian simplicity they knelt before the
stranger. Marina's eyes were wet with
tears, and, taking the artist's hand, she
kissed It.
"Who ore you, slgnor, wlo by the
touch of your brush can turn paper
into gold?"
"My name is on the face of tho chock.
I must put It on the back that you may
draw the money."
All stared over the shoulder of Gulle
mo, who held the clieck, and read the
name "Mclssonler."
Gullemo went to Paris to study. Thero
was no need of a dot when he married
Marina, for as soon as ho completed
his studies he sprang Into fame.
KING SALMON FOUND
AGAIN IN FAR NORTH.
Fishermen With Hand Llrs Make $10
a Day on Average.
Catching king salmon with hand
lines, fishermen in tho far north are
averaging $10 a day. Tho king salmon,
which is the largest of its species,
ranging from 50 to 100 pounds each,
has flesh of a fine grain and a dollcatc
flavor. For these tho canneries pay 51
apiece.
For five years tho catch of king sal
mon has been getting nnnually smaller
and tho price higher. There wero ru
mors that the species was becoming
extinct Craig Miller, a fisherman of
Ketchikan, Alaska, had a theory that
tho big fish had changed their feeding
grounds because of tho Alaskan earth
quakes. After working along the
shores and among tho islands of south
eastern Alaska for a year he found a
broad plateau off Forester Island, on
which were millions of king salmon.
The king salmon is fond of herring,
and Prince of Walos island has bays
filled with such fish. The king salmon
gathered In force and herded millions
of herring, holding them prisoners on
the big shoal. Twioe a day tho salmon
go to the shoal to eat herring. Twice
oach day thorp la a great commotion in
tho water for miles around as the
salmon rush after their prey.
Miller returned with a boatload of
tho finest king salmon ever seen at
Ketchikan. Ho told the story, and
now there are more than 400 boats
floating over this shoal, each contain
ing four men nnd each man spending
two hours morning and night hauling
in salmon which weigh an average of
eighty pounds each.
