Wasnixaros, Dee, 3.—Special Correspon- co of Tuk ke EW blood. New brains, New men. Thesenate which meets on Monday will be practically strange to the people. Half of its members have not been in office moro than two years and there are sixteen sena- tors who take their seats in the chamber for the first time. Tho old men of the million- aires’ club are passing awny. There is not enough white hair left in that body to stuff a pin cushion and most of the new senators aro under fifty. Many of them are poor, many of them have strange histories and altogether they form a moss in- teresting set of congressional curiosities. Two *enatorial Babies. Some of the brightest of the young men pome from the west and two of these are so young that they are hardiy out of their short Glothes. Dubois of Idaho aud Hansbrough of Dakota arc tho babies of the senate. Itis #ll Dubols can do to raise a mustache, and Hansbrough does not look to be over 30. Btul both of them have been in the house, and Hausbrough was editing a paper at Devil's Lake when the state of North Dakota ‘was admitted, and he became its first con- grossman, Botn Dubois and Hansbrough were born iu Itlinois. fansbrough’s parents were poor and he got his education in the rinting office. He left Illinois after learning is trade and went, to California, Thero ho published a daily at San Jose and worked for ELTeoIRRSHARART Aot coR Ul ol o2 Lofarrst I — e i 'Wwas news editor of the Chronicle in 1870 and Jeft it to go to Wisconsin and eait the Bar- aboo Bulletin, K'rom Wisconsin he went to WNorth Dakota about nine years azo and he comes to the senate as the successor of Gil Piorco. He is a straight. clean cut, rosy hecked young man with a red mustacho hicu lovks for all the world iike that of Dan Lamont. He weighs about 150 pounds, has a ood address and is a fair type of the practi- oal young, business man of the west. He {xm owns his paper at Devil's Lake ana aries his congressional work by writing “dutorials for iv. Dubois is a younger man than Hansbrough, Ho weighs twenty pounds less aud holsa [brunette while Hansbrough is a strawberry londe. Dubois' parents were well-to-do ®nd ho received a good education. He went Yo school at Yale and he was thero noted as Bnathlote as well asastudent. Kor four oars he was the catcher of tne base ball ine of his class. FHis ambition grew with is muscle and after his graduation he found linols too small for him and he moved to [daho. He put his muscle into politics and uring his first congressional campaign he #poko 1n every settlement in 1daho, traveling over its 85,000 square miles of mountainous fgountry on mules and in stage coaches aud being at times nearly a month away from the ilroad. His indefatigable energy enabled im to beat tho older politicians of the state #nd this will make him one of the hard work- rs of the senate. Ho is an unpretentious menand his chief pleasure is in his work, %a is a bachelor and lLves very quietly in ashington appavently caring nothing for Kociety. Two Ex-Representatives. Senators Blair of Now Hamoshire and Hearst of California are succeeded by two men who served together in the house of yepresentatives. Thesa are Dr. Jacob Gal- Ylingor and Mir. Charles Felton. Gallinger is B bright-eyed. black-mustached, semi-bald little man, whose frame is packed full of ervous activity. He Is a smart politician, a feady spenker, and a cordial hatred exists botween himself and his colleague, Senator Chandler. He began lite poor, and bas been & printer, an editor and a doctor. He has :mdn mouey in all lus trades and professions ud is now a well-to-do man for New Hamp- hire. Mr. Charles Felton also started life with fothing and ho {s now & rich man in that prate of rich men, California. This means that heis a millhonaive. He owns mining tocks, railroad stocks and bonds and he owns the water works of one of the bost puburban towns near San Francisco. He is Yery modest with all his millions and he is one of the most earnest and practical 1men in congress. Tho newspapers not long ago put bim down as worth $15,000,000. I happened to be with him when he saw this report and he was by no means pleased with it, *The mewspaper reports,” said he, “‘always over- estimate the weaith of apublic man, 1 never made money so fast in my life as sinco ¥ came to congress. My actual wealth has Bot increased, hut the newspapers make me out many willions richer than I am.” There §sno dount, however, but that Felton is worth several million dollars, He was born In New York and at 17 went to Callfornia to make his fortune, Ho studiod law, tried oue case and then dropped tho law and went to busivess. He has nover beon a candidate for office and his volitical honors have been thrust upon him. He doos Bot think much of congressional methods and says ho will not romain in the senate without he can do something, Senator Felton is now nearly 50 yoars old. Ho is & woll dressed man of about five feet six and ho weighs just 130 pounds. He is noted for his gooa fellow- sbip and his sterhing business qualities, Ho 15 aman of ideas and can make a speech which will hold the attaution of the gallerios. Senators Brice and Hill. Next to Felton the richest man of the new members is probably Cal Brice, who repro- sonts Ohio but lives in New York, Brice's fortune, however, is a speculating one and he {s ongaged in s0 many things that he does not know himself just how rich hels. I kuew him when he was worth a bundred thousand doilars less than nothiug, ana this \\vu ouly about tem years ago. Goveruor ~ Foster, who is now secretary of the troasury, was then the chief executive of Onio, and Brice and he wero bullding the Ohio Contral raflroad. They finished it, but T don't think it pad until they ran it into the coal flelds. Then the stock took & turs and Brice was able to pay his debts and to clear more than $100,000. He next made a big fortune out of the Nickel-Plate railroad and his friends say he has been making money ever sinco. He hus nlways dealt in big ventures and once or twice has been vory close to the ragged edge of failure, but has palled through. Brice comes from Lima, O., and he does not look a day older now than he did ten years ago, He is in bis fortios and is tull of enorgy. He is a man of medium height, well built but rather angular, and ho looks more lLike a westerner than a railroad speculator, He has & reddish brown beard, s very laro nose and his eyes aro as blue es tho skies of Italy. heisaman of considerable culture and he spends a great partof his sur- plus in fine books, bric-a-brac and pictures. Ho paid $250,000 for his house on Murray Hill, New York, and he will probably entertain wtensively at Washington after he has been here long enough toget mto the swim. He has a very bright wife, who is largely inter- ested in charitable work and who will have a wood chance to exercise this part of her char- acter at Washington, which s, to a large ex- tent, a city of beggars. Senator David B. Hill has selected his winter quarters at Washington. He will live just over where Charles Sumner used to hold forth and just across the street from where President Madison lived after he loft the white nouse, His quarters are bachelor ones and his hotel is the Arlington, Hili will e ono of the great characters of the senate. The discussion of him as a presidential possi- bility and his position as goveruor of New York have for the pust five years made him one of the leading figures of the democratic party, and the people will expect mors from him as & senator than they will provably get. Men who have great reputations before they Ret to the senate often fail there, because they do not come up to public expectations, and Hill will have to be a genius to make & great figure during the first two years. The probability is that he will speaic very little, but bis industry will make him a valuable man on committees and his power of manag ing men and working the political wires will m ke bis presence at Washington invaluable to his party. He will bave an easier time in Washington than he had at Albany and dur- ing his leisure ho can vary his talks on statesmanship with chats on base ball with Senator Gorman who was onceanoted player or with Dubois whose recora I have given. Attendance on ball games and the theater are said 1o be David Hill's chief amusements. He is not a society man and cares little for receptions and dinnors, He is very ap- proazhable and his oftice in Aibany is op2n to all. He understunds how to work and how to make others work for him and his pre- pared speechos will be up to the average. Pefrer and Kyle. The two Simon-pure alliance senators are, however, Senator Peffer of Kansas and Sen- ator Kyle of South Dakota. Both of theso men have gotten to tho senate by Being constitutional kickers. They have run their campaigns on the beg- ging basis snd have made votes by pleaaing poverty and mortgages. Neither of them I venture ever made over $1,500 8 year during their lives and ths 35,000 job is a bonanza to them. Kyle came into Dakota some years ago as a Congregational preacher. He started a cnurch at Aberdeen and his ene- mies say that in the articles of incorporation or in the constitution of the church he left out three very important matters, One of these was as to the existence of a God, a sec- and was as to the existence of the trinity and the third as to the belief in a future state. These, so the story goes, were left out merely through carelessness on Scunator Kyle's part, but one of the old elaors recti- fled the matter and they got in. Kyle had little to do with politics before he went to Dakota. He did nothing thers until this farmers’ alliance movement came up and then he jumped 1to the fray on the side of the farmers and advocated their theories. He haa no idea of - being senator and had decided to leave the Dako- tas and move to Boston. His household goods were packod and at the depot when ho found 2 Fiance A-r..’ that he had been chosen to the blggexc office in tho gift of his state, that hé had the right to ve calied Senator Kyle and that his wages for six years to como would be nearly $100 a weok. He thereupon decided to stay and he is now at Washington ready to earn his salar Mr. Kyle is tall, thin and apgular in appearauce. He looks like Canady, the old sergeant-at-arms of the senate. He s twenty yoars younger than Peffer and ho has no whiskers av all. Senator Poffer prides himself on his whiskers. Like Samson his muscle has gone into his hair and the rest of his body is tall and thin in consequence. He has the student's stoop and as Ingails says he talks with a parpetual cough. Noither he nor Kyle are dangerous and thoy are men of peace rather than war. Governors Gordon an1 Paimer, Hill is not the ouly ex-governor among the new senators. General Gordon has been twice governor of Gaorgia and Ganeral John M. Palmer was once the chief executive of Illinois. Both served with credit in the lato war and Palmer came out of it a major-gen- oral, having been in some of the noted battlos and naving started in as & colonel. Gordon entered the confederate service as a captain and he rose to be lieutenant-general and he was commanding his troops at the time tha Lee surrenderea at Appomattox. He was shot all to pleces during the war and his handsome face bears tho scars that he re- ceived daring its battles, He was wounded five times at the battle of Sharpsburg and the fifth ball entered his cheek and laid him low on the fleld. In speaking about this wound uot long ago he told @ curious story which illustratos a feature of bhis ocharactor which will come into play during his senatorial carcer. Itisa fact that Gordon nover loses bis head and that he can toiok under any circumstances. Said Geveral Gordon: “While I lay there wounaed on the field my miod went through a curious prooess of reasoning. I thought I had been struck by a cannou-ball and I said to myself, ‘I have beea struck in the head with a six-pound sold shot. It has carried away my head 1 can feel that there is & little piece of the skull left on the lett side. But wy brain must be goue eutirely. Therefore I am dead. Aand yotI am thinking. And how can s maa think with his head shotoff! Aod if I am thinking I cannot be dead. Ana yet no man oan live after his nead s snot oft, Sullll may have consciousness after I am dead but my body cannot have action. Now if [ ean lift my log then it must be that Tem alive. 1 willtry that. Can 1! YesI can. I see it tising. Iam not dead after all; and with that T woke up and foand that my hesd was stili on, but [ ressonied as philosophically and logically over the matter as though I was in my office."” A man who can reason this way under such circumstances is not likely to have much trouble ou the senate floor and Gordon has had experfence 1 the senate in the past. He was elacted to tho sonate in 1573 and showed himself a brilliant speaker and debater. He lected in 1870 but resigned the yodr followiug on the grounds that he was too Poor to remain in politics and went back to (leorgia and engaged in railroading. He made a fortune [ am told but reverses came and ho lost it. He was elected gnvernor of Goorgia in 1850 and he has been in politics more or less all his life. Gordon s one of the fine looking men of the new members. He is tall, straight and military in his bear- ing. He is vory popular with his old soldiers and notwithstauding the fact that he opposod the farmer’s alliance ana was opposed by them he was selocted to the senate. Senator Gordon is noted as an after dinner speaker. He is fond of his feliow men and will have many friends here, Genoral John M. Palmer is also a popular man, He is the oldest of the.new miembers and with the exception of Morrill he will probably be the oldest man in Lhe senate. He was born in Kentucky just seventy-four years ago, and he moved to Illinots at the age of 15. The earlier part of his life was spent as a re pbublican, but ne separated from his party during tho time ho was governor of the state and came out a democrat and he claims to bo a democrat as a matter of principle, Senator Palmer is a very approachable man. Thers is no foolishness or snobbishness about him and his friends say that his heart is as big as his body and he is physically oue of the biz men of the senate. He s especially strong among the farmers and he is u presidential possibility in that he could carry ns large a farming vote as any man in his party. Bad Yen From the South. The two fighters come from the far south and they are moro or less allied 10 tho al- liance party. Jorry Simpson says that Irby of South Carolina is a renegado and ths has gone back on the alliance and bec democrat. Tne democratic party ave count- ing on his vote and, whether a democrat or not, he promisos to cut something of a figure here. He has the reputation of belng a fighter in South Carolina and it is said that ?.«cn\o ge A= he was at several times ready to anflflu in duels there and that he went around with his pistol in his pocket and fire in his oye. Ho had one or two shooting scrapss and after one loft tho stato for atime. Iuis certain that he is no coward and it may bo that their will bo some lively fightiug in tho alliaue! camp if he remains in it. Senator Irby had, ivis said, a ducl while ho was at Princeton in 1871, but the pistols were not loaded and 10 one was hurt. Senator Chilton of Texas comes from the state of bold, bad men. Ho is a straight, fine looking fellow, and wears when at homwe a great sombrero, and during a part of his careor nas carried a revolver on his hip. He is & mucn stronger man than the average ana starting life with nothing ho has mide i rep- utation as a lawyer and a speaker. Ho is apoointed to the senate by bisold friond, Governor Hogg. The two wero hoys together while working at th printing trade in Iyler and they slept uader the same blanket. Now Hogg bas become governor and he gives his ola playmate the best offer 1n his power. Senator Gibson's Appointment. Another curious uppointment was that of Senator Gibson of Maryland. Gibson has been in congress for several terms and he was about to open a campaizu as a candidato for the clerkship of the present house when he received a note from Senator Gorman ask- ing him to call at his houss before 9:30 o'clock one morning. Gibson is living on his country seat on the eastern shora of Mary- land, and this letter of Mr. Gorman’s was sent to his wife, who forwarded it to him there. He had justabout engaged his rooms for his clerkship contest woen he received it. Heat ouce went to Senator Govman, and Gorman told him that Governor Jaclkson in- tended to appoint him to the vacancy in the United States sena Shortly after this Governor Jackson camo in, Pho matter was talked over and Gibson said he would accept it. He uhen left Senator Gorman’'s, and shortly after this Governor Jackson called upon him at his hote! and formally tendered him the appointment. His otfice will last for only a few weeks, as the vacaney which be fills is only a short one. He says he will not be a candidata for re-elec- tion, and he states that he hopes to see Goy- ernor Jackson elected. It would not ba fair to say that there wasany arrangement to that effect connected with bis appointment, but such things have boon bofore and may be now. Senator Gibson is a well made hand- some young fellow somewhere in the fortics, He i3 noted for his good fellowship, bis hos- pitality and his generosity, and his wife Is one of the handsomest and most accomplisbed women at the capital. Senators from the Gulf States. The Gulf of Mexico furnishes two new men to the senate. These are White of Louisiana, who takes the seat of tho rich and phlegmatic Eustis and Davidson of Florida, who hopes to hold from now on the position which the choleric Call has kept for tho past twelve years. Senator White promises to make more of a noise than did Kustis, He is a Louisiuna lawyer and is noted for his vital 1ty and nervous energy. Hels six feet tall has & robust frame, and bis hawr and com- plection are blonde. He is well educated, spoaks French likoa Ceeolo and is very fluent as a debater. He is quick at reparteo though not bitter in bis remurks. Ho is a sugar planter as woll as a lawyer and has a large sugar estate near New Orlesns. Ho is a bachelor but prefers his own home to a hotel and he will probably keep house ut Washing- ton with nis sister as the female bhead of the house. Seoator Davidson of Florida, has been in the lower house of congress for years. He is a man of fair average ability but with none of the sloments of great statesmanship or great oratory about him. e is well edu- catod aud during the late unpleasantuess ho won his spurs on vEe confederate side enter 10g the service as a captain and coming out & lieuteuant colonel. He was acting in this position when ho waas severely wounded in 1504 and had to lea™ the service. He is now about sixty yeurs of ago and has been in pol- itics all bis lite, Great Men from the Cabinet. The two ex-cabinet officers who come trot- ting into the » nate will probably attract con- siderable att ut ion, Proctoris as mild a man as ever cut an oficial throat but he is fresh from the great department of war and thero is fire in his eye. Vilas has been digesting bis postal schewes in the long watks which 50C BUYS A GOCD BOYD:S ruEatee. RESERVED SEAT Soveateenth and Harney Stroots 4ounday Evening, Dec 6th.

He left his studi to go Iuto the army as quartermaster and T0s0 to be colonel, when his heslth failod him and he went to tarming, He was farming when he became receiver of the marble quar- ries which made his fortine, and he still owns a big farm ana runs it. ' Ho is saia to possess some of the finest blooded cattle in the coantry, and he is faud of a country lifo, Senator Vilas is also sqmething of a farmer, though I havo never hedrd of his being a scientific one.

He want to scnool at Madison and graduated at the collage there at®'13, and at the age of 20 he had wou his first case before the supreme tdiirt of his state. He showed himself to bb’a good lawyer and ne has made a great deal of money &t uul practico.
