Mr. Wood, of Clark. the Speaker pro tem, 1s a quict-mannered gen- tleman, who 1s eminent at the bar in He is a clear and judgment, his section. tor- cible debater, good-natured to make a good pre- siding officer. When he in the chair the House at times gets away with him, until his blue eyes flash and the square-set jaws become closely set, and then there is a bang of the gavel, which 1s followed by a silence that is paintul. As to fine looking men, there are several gen- tlemen on the floor who attract the attention of the ladies who daily grace the lobby with their presence. Moorhouse, of Nedaway would be observed among a thou- sandmen. He is a tall, over six teet, with hair and mustache of raven hue, more than the command- ing in figure. He gives when he rises, an indicatiou of the utterances that tollow, for he is at all times tor- cible and logical. Chris Ellerbe, of St. Louis county, well known in the city, is a fine type ot the Southern gentleman, as he is found in his most develoved state, and with his knowledge of legislation and elo- quence in debate always exercises a strong influence for or against a measure in which he may enlist. JUDGE BASHAW, OF MONROE. just now the most prominent candi- date for Governor in 1884. is also a but is 1s tall, dark-muzzled man, with striking presence and a forcible manner. He is not on the floor a great Jeal, but when he rises he has something to say, His eloquent efforts against the Supreme Court Commission bill stamped him as a profound constitu- tional lawyer. He perhaps enjoys the confidence of a larger constituen- cy than any man on the floor, and is a leeder among men. Mr. McGinnis, of St. Louis, is another large man, with an impera- tive yoice, and, owimg to nine win- ters, experience in the Assembly, is considered to be a dangerous enemy or a strong support. A thorough parhamentarian, he somewhat vain of the accomphshment, and the journal of the House is freely punct- uated with his objections and points ot order. He carries with him a manner of rugged honesty, which is conceded by his friends, and only destroys his usefullness by appear- mg on the floor toe often. He 1s inclined at times to hunt a small quail with his battery. is perhaps too; | bate the reverbations of his thunder ne | knocked down the wood piled up i 9 ._ | Near one of the old-fashioned open } At timoas he is | se .; ever, a hard regularly working balance wheel of | His Irish love of humor is frequently j getting him into trouble, and hi | impetugsity has put him at logger: heads with several eggressive mem- } | bers. Across the aisle from where | he sits BENTLY OF ST, LOUIS. who always addresses the House as though he was speaking to 20.000 people in the open air. It is said | that during the Supreme Court de- fire-places. Capt. Bentley 1s, how- worker, and has no mistakes. Parker, of Lincoln, who sits in this netghborhood, is 2 young man of ability and eloquence, who any one can see ata glance is a Ken- tuckian. His biack mustache is as aggressive as the poise of his bead. He is, perhaps, rather too impetu- ous and over fond of action. In de- bate he is strongly personal at times, but 1s‘willing to assert his personal respensibility on or off the floor. His name is being mentioned in con- nection with the Attorney-General- ship, and he has quite a following of enthusiastic young men. Tom Cramer, of Cooper ceunty, looks lke a tarmer, but is not one; on the contrary, he is a good law- yer. Sarcasm is Cramer’s strong hold, and in debate he 1s_ merciless. He is considerable of a wit, and, having gained that reputation, 1s sometimes embarassed by it. Dur- ing the Supreme Court debate he made one of the most earnest speech- es of his life. the whole effect of which was destroyed by the fact that the House was waiting to hear what Tom would get off. J. Ed. Jones, of Clinton, being an editor, is not given to much talking. He is foremost among the oppo- nents of Prohibition, having been elected on that issue in tace of the opposition of Dr. Brooks and McMicheal. On a2 recent occasion, however, goaded bythe unfair as- saults made upon him by Dr. Brooks and others through the Prohibition press he delivhred an essay upon the subject of lobbyist, which made Dr. Brooks, who was seated in the gal- lery, turn red and white by turns, and made thenand there his repu- tation as an orator. GAGE, OF KANSAS CITY one of the ablest lawyers im the State. who only came to the Legis- lature this time impelled by a strong sense of public duty isa man of medium height and middle age, with a voice that is musical in the extreme and a graceful command of language that always insures him the closest attention trom the House when, at rare intervals, he speaks. Reagan, uf Jackson, one at Gage’s colleagues, is a veteran membe:, and witha tund otf quaint similies and illustrations that bespeak for him at all times a_ respectful hearing. He does not get up often, but when he does he says something that is remembered. FARRIS, OF RAY, is ssid by many te be the hest speak- er in the House. He is known | the most expert mashers in the body. votes on a close measure. In he will probabiv be nominated for a gallant run for Speaker. Congress in the Fourteenth District | to succeed Lowndes Davis, whose success last fall he assured Wingo, ot Dent, is a patriar chial old gentle- man highly esteemed at home as a lawyer. He 1s very deaf, but makes | speaches of remarkable clearness and torce. Sometimes he furnishes amusement to the House by making a speech one way and then inadver- tently voting the other. Thursday evening last Brandford and Tom, George and Dick Whut- ten became engaged in Gentryville. Bradford was beaten ov- er the head with a pistol inthe hands ot one of the Whittens, and shot the mouth by George ‘Whitten. F. C. Gibson has sold his farm of seventy acres adjoining Hamilton on the south, to Judge J. F. Doge, at $65 per acre. Mr. Gibson purchas- ed of Mr Dodge-an eighty acre farm on the Kingston road two miles from Hamilton, at $50 per acre. There $9,143 in the State Treasury for the heirs of Peter Bro- mino if they can be found. Also $1, 268 tor the heirs of Michael Dono- van, and $1,524 left by Wm, John- son; $1,357 left by Elizabeth Mc- Donough, and $1,817 left by Jarvis Williamson. in is , A company has been organized at Concordia to begin the manufacture of wagons, plows and various kinds of agricultural implements. The stock subscribed is said to be suffi- cient to erect a large building and purchase all necessary machinery, tools etc. John S. Vandiver. a son of Rey. L. H. Vandiver, of the M. E. Church, south, in Cambridge, 3a- line county, and Romie McCormack another young man of the same place, were engaged in playing cards in an old unoccupied building. During the game some dispute arose which led to blows, and McCormack drew a razor and gave vandiver three slashes about the head and neck. Farmers and others desiring a genteel, and lucrative agency business, by which $5 to $20 a day can be earned, send ad‘ dess at once, on postal, to H.t’.Wil- kinson &Cwo., 195 anp 197 Fulton Street- New York. 46m* On the 15th of September.a young lady sent up a toy balloon trom her home in New Castle, Pennsylvania, with a note attached requesting the finder to lct her know and give ad- dress. In exactly one month from that time she received a letter trom James Lanning, at Stanberry, M1s- souri, announcing its arrival at that place. P. W. Goebel, druggist, ot Louisburg, Kansas, says: “I have sold Prickly Ash Bitters tor five years, and I have never handled a medicine which gave more universal satisfaction. [tis fast becom- ing the family medicine of this section. I have warranted dozens of bottles and never had one returned. Feb rstm.t The southand Southeast Fior- ida.
