'Picturesque - Parliamentary Official Who Is Supposed to Imprison Re- fractory Members Has No'. Place Wherein to Confine Them -Manipu- lation of the Mace Is Now ,His Chief Duty—Present Incumbent. The Sergeant -at -Arms is the officer who has in his keeping the peace and laafety of the. House in general _:and o the Speaker. in particular and in e 'dition'.:to those onerous„ dlutiel3„;; 1�r responsible, acconf�Ii".ng ' 'to the 1),..t. for- the safe -keeping of the mei' e$', furniture,.of the House, and for the: conduct of the messengers and infer- ior servants.” Should it be necessary to take into custody anyone in the chamber --mem- ber or otherwise — the Sergeant -at - 'Arms would be the man for the un- pleasant task, and that is 'probably one reason for his wearing bravely a sword at his side. "He is entitled to a fee of four dollars," says an author: iity, "for all persons who .shall have teen committed to his charge." Where would he. keep his prisoners? About the House the theory is that the prisoners would have to be incar- cerated in the tower, somewhere be- tween the committee room on the se- cond floor and the big bell that strikes the hours far up near the look -out !cage that crowns the top. The Sergeant -at -Arms is rppointed by the crown, "and remains in office during pleasure or until he is super. annuated." He is given a handsome. big chair—a sort of miniature throne, with 111.' desk before it, and they stand near the foot of the gangway, but a little to one side, and just within the bar. The Sergeant -at -Arms, there- fore, faces the Speaker, and the mace, which reposes on a cushion stretched across the foot of the table at whose head sits the Clerk of' the House. To guard the Speaker and adroitly handle the mace are among the Ser- geant's most important and certainly most conspicuous duties. It is in the matter •of processions that the Sergeant -at -,Arms particularly - shines. There he leads while all others follow -- even the Prime Minister, the head of the Government, and the Speaker, who is the head of the House. There is a daily procession, small, it is true, but' as dignified as it is small, and important, too, because it is a. preliminary but .essential step in the opening of. each, day's sitting. Shortly before the hour fixed for the opening of a sitting, the Clerk in his robe and the Sergeant -at -Arms, in his semi -military coat, and with sword at side, wait upon, the Speaker in his apartments at the end of the corridor leading to the main entrance of the chamber. Besides living in these apartments, the Speaker- here keeps under—luck and 'key the huge gilt 'mace, which, is both the emblem of ° the authority of the House, ,and also the Sergeant -at -Arms'. second weapon. of defence, Centuries ago both sword and mace were needed by tho Sergeant-ateArnis in the British House;+ for members 'then sat in Parliament armed, and it was well ,to provide, the Speaker's guardian with the means of running j an assailant through or breaking his head, for which purposes a sword and a mace were very convenient. When the hour for the opening of ,n.s.tril ,..,thit thze.o tern, and witlr ni'asurecl and stately tilead marcid down the corridor into the chamber. With mace on shoulder and" sword at side the Sergeant -at - /inns heads the procession of three. At the Sergeant's heels comes the Speaker, while the Clerk brings up the rear When the House is called to the Bar of the Senate to hear read from the throne the speech opening or clos- ing the session, the procession of members from one chamber to the *other is led by the Sergeant -at -Arms, ho, heavily armed, goes ahead to make sure that the way is clear for ''Vie Speaker and his faithful Com- intons. 'During the sittings of the House e Sergeant -at -Arms has much to do '„pnneetionn: with the mace. 'When 1peaker is in. the chair the 'mace es mite,. eushibns at ' the to}ver f the long table, -'but the instant' the "fIouse goes into Committee of the Whole, •and the Speaker leaves ':the chair, the Sergeant -at -Arms re- moves the mace and conceals it by '.longing it on two padded hooks or brackets that project from the lower legs of the table. ' When non -contentious bills are be- ing put through, the House will make' a number of rapid changes into and, 'out, of Committee of the Whole, and the Sergeant -at -Arms has to handle Lthe .mace with despatch. What would happen if the mace should not be on the'`table when the Speaker is in the chair; no one know, tot even the' greatest Parliamentarians. However, the Sergeant -at -Arms takes good care to' see that it does not happen. The present occupant of the office of Sergeant -at -Arms is Colonel Henry Robert Smith, I.S.O., A.D.C.; and it is not too much to say that the office was never filled with more dignity, efficiency , and satisfaction to all con- cerned. Col. Smith is a Parliamentarian .of wide experience, for lie was Deputy 'Sergeant' for twenty years, and Ser- 'geatp`t-at-Arms since 1892. He is a :.:ori of the late Hon. Sir Henry Smith, and a native of Kingston, where he attended the gild Grammar School ,from which Sir John A. Macdonald graduated before entering a law ofite As an articled clerk. Cul. Smith was connected with the militia even before i'he-became connected with Parliament, •ter he served on the frontier during fth.e T3`enian Raids of 1863 and 1870, `and was awarded a medal with two clasps. He was again in the field !cliaring the Northwest Itrbellion of ;1985, when he was .mentioned in the clespatehes and also won a medal The Sergeant -at -Arms has fine apartments in the building, and he o0cupies them during the sessions. Way of the Waves. A strange thing about waves that •,tire roiling In from the sea is that they bring no water with them. While these mad waves are rolling in a piece of driftwood may ride them ,steadily Lind make progress away from the alalic.: This is for the reason that ..Waves are shade in the very way a ivr'tulrte may be pushed across the tablecloth with a pencil laid flat. The 'tablecloth does .not advance, but the ridge, because of a force bearing on it, goes forward.—New York Tribune. Neither Rot Nor Sympathy.
