e ———————————————————— THE NATION'S YOUNG OLDEY, Rules of Living Whioh Havs Brought a Rips Age. LONGEVITY AND HOW IT MAY BE OBTAINED. Richard Vaux, Haired Statesman' “the Tidon from Sam Raudall's District Belicves in a Lite te Ol0 Ttye. wriaht 1891 by Frank . Carpenter.] Wasitixatox, May 15, Special Correspond- ence of Tur Ber). The oldest statesmen in the country are the jolliest. A man who is seventy can afford to bo witty, and he who has lived to be eighty, and still feels well, ought to laugh acd bo merry all day long. Senator Justin M he can cackle a rill is now eighty-one and gh with all the vigor of a boy whose voice is cianging. He was born in 1810, began life as & merchant, then turnod farmer, and finally graduated as a statesman Hahangs to his seat in the senats like grim death, For thirty-five years he has been in public life and his rossional career 1s more than a generation. Still at eighty, ho is tall, well-formed and fine looking, and though his shoulders are a little bent with ace, his eyes are bright and his brain still works. Hels very muchaverse to mterview in and the gist of iy conversation with him was that he felt as young as he used to be and that ho by no means cousiders himself an old man Come around,” said he, “about six years from now and I will feel myself fitted to give ¥ou an opinion on longevity, At present I am one of the young men of the day, and I do not feel that my appearances justify me in giving advice to the other be EVAITS JOKING ON OLD AGE. F'rom Senator Morrill’s I went to the house of Senator Evarts, and I found here another spry statesman of th rs and who decidedly objected to beiug called Said Mr. Ivarts, as he walked with dign tread into the library “Ireally do not feel fitted to ex opinion upon the sccrets of longevity, and you should call upon Mr. Morrill for such an exprossion. He has lived a number of vears ton 0-500) 53 an moro than I, and should be cousidered tho sage of the senato,” “But, Senator,” said 1, “you e lived th ore years en, and 1 would like to get the advico of such hardworking young old men as you are, for the youth of today as may lengthen their days.” 1," replied the senfor senator from New York, as a smile crept up over his lips and stretched itself down to his shirt collar and gradually tr cd up to his twinkling eyes, “the only way I know for young men to lengthen their days is to steal some hours from the night. I laughed, and the senator we that hie considered Lis health due | good constitution and a moderate d 1] adenco in his living, added to good luck. 1e then turned the conversation to thedoings of congress, and though he talked delight- fully about the senate and its possibilities, he ould say nothing about longevity. As 1 t, Lsaid, “Senator, I am much obiiged for the information re logislation, but 1 would have much p d one of your four- bundred-word sentences on old age.” HOW JUDGE W. S, HOLMAN KEEPS YOUNG.

I believe in work, and I believe that more men are d by shirking than by overworking, | think with temper e in eating and drink- that the aver ¢ man 1s benefited by working a large number of the hours out of tho twenty-four.

At this time I found that whenever I was forced to omit my bath through teavel or other conditions that 1 lost my mental and physical vigor during the duy and felt uncomiortable. At present T buthe three or four times o week.” AS TO EXERCISE AND VACATIONS, “Tam, you know," continued Judge Hol- ~e~man, ‘‘a farmer, and when I am home in In- diara I take a good deal of exercise on horse- back. Here my chief exercise is in - walking in the open air. 1 beliove that every man should get out into the country or away from his business at a certain time during the year, and [ think I have been bonefited by my summer vacation on my farm, The same is true of tho rest taken at the average water- ine-place,and 1 remember a visit which T paid to Saratoga about ton years ago. 1 had been at Niagara with my wifo and daughter, and we ran down to Saratoga. I had been at Niagara to look at the place and to spend a few days there. Right near the depot I found the United States hotel, and put up there, be- causo I thought it would be cheap, I found, Lowever, that T was mistaken, and that I was in one of the most fashionable places of the city. I found among the guests many peo- plo whom I knew. and among others, Robert arrett, the president of the Baltimore & Ohioroad, He asked me how long 1 was oinge v stay, and I told him I was only going B e ft6re brer night, and I had just come $0 aco the place. Ho ‘replied that speuc a month there ever, considered his vacation at eret of his vigor in his old age. He poin ou* the scoro of old men whom I knew in the rlors, saying that they all thought as he did f ~ii life-p1ving properties of the springs, ®aa he advisea me to try them." TOBACCO AND MAKRIAGE, What do you think of the use of tobacco 5 Thgards health ' 1 asked. “I believe that tobacco is injurious,” re- plicd Judge Holman, *I have chewed tho weed ever siuce I 'was aboy and I am an inveterato user of it today. I think it hus injured my health and 1 think I would be better without it. 1 am not a teetotaler and Lamnot sure whether the use of wines and liquors in moderation is good. [ used think that the Catawba wines were good health but 1 doubt this now.” Do you think marriage conductive to long lifol! I do," replied Judge Holman, “I was mar- ried at ninetecn and my wifo was seventeen, aud I will celebrato my golden wedding in & yearorso. I would advise the young man Who wishes to live long to marry young, and 1 would urgefhim to be temperate and to koeep himself ‘as free as possi! from worry.

This tra- ditional hut, which is more interesting to the average miner than anything in holy writ, is said to have existed in the dim long ago as the abode of miners who had struck a glit ing bonanza, but who, while working i it, had been assailed by Indians so savagely that all but one were slaughtered. He escaped, but was afterwards unable to locate the glittering find, and died with the words on his lips that the Lost Cabin mine was a bloody bonanza. The eabin in question was found about six years ago by Charley Barneburg, Situafed in a beautiful greonwood dellin the wildest portion of the wild Pelican Bay, the vawning incongruity burst upon’ his vision with a suddenness that took about two gallons of his breath. When he went there recently in company with Messrs, Green and Long, the old eabin still yawned and the men went to tracing the dis- tinct outlines of a cut about 400 feet long, probably made years and years ago.
