mGQflry TulfS+ Lie Is q IuEfnCFt ny EQuc1Iou
and calling, but talks lie a lawyer. There is
! vein of humor in the speeches Of the old
gentleman which rafses u smile III the listen
er, but the Colonel don't seem to appreciate
the fnct- He is pleasant. genial gentleman,
md a1l the members look upon and treat him
with the highest respect; He is afit colleague
in the State is more worthlly represented than
JOHN, OF McnESRr.-s1r. Joslyn. Of
McEenry, is q lawyer BY profession, sharp In
his practice, but honorable and truthful: He
has the capacity to speak we'll, but rarely in
du1ges in speech. His face Is Of the philo-
sophical class, and he might be set down fora
"tuli. bearded, long haired philosopher" But
he Is not Of that school. There Is not proba-
bly, more practical man In the House. Hsls
about thirty five years ofagc, medium height,
rather light figure, pleasant lice covered with
BRowE, OF WESEnAco.-Mr. Brown, Of
Winnebago, Is new member, but has already
made his mark; He has spoken two OF three
times on the railroad charter issues, and his
speeches were logical, strong, sold, and pro-
ness in debate carries conviction. His hon
esty no msn darcs question that he follows
his convictions Of duty, there can be no doubt.
Mr. Brown, should say, WIS thitty-eisht
years Of age, with calm, benevolent, hon
est, determined face Of medium height, eVl-
Winnetago is honoIed in having such Il Re
prescntallTe.
DuYs, or STARK Little Stark Is alwaysas
true as steel, and she has sent just the right
man to represent her IN the person Of ".
Richard G: Dunn He is gentleman Of cdu-
Ken, but like most men Of his c1ass, who
know their strength, is quiet, and attends
closely to the duties for which he was sent
here he is Chairman OF the Committee on
Education, and the labors OF tbnt duty are
: just suited to his tastes. Mr.. Dunn il about
forty 5ea,s Of age, perhaps little under the
ordluary size, but firmly and compact1y put
together. Els face l., ,graya, but display; evi-
drEcc Of great kindness;of heart.
Cook, Of CooK--Yous Chicago readers au
know him, md I, therefore, need hardly aes-
cribe his appearance, further than to say he
is one the best looking men in the House.
Hc is Chairman Of the Penitentiary Commit
mittce, and gives those important duties
1a:ge share Of his attention. Ife Knows that
1nll and complete history Of the Joliet Pen
itentiary would deselop the most assoand-
ing frauds and Inalfeasance IN Office, and he
is determined that they shall be laid before
the Legislature ard the people, III alf their
naked defotmity. In this, Understand, he
is cordially seconded BY tho other members
ofthe Committee. Afr. Cook Is either attend
ing to this business, or his duties In the
House, ut I'LL hou1e, and his constituents arc
not neglected.
MILLER, OF LAsA1LE-AIr. Miller, of LII
Salle, is solid built, SQUARE faced gen tleman-
Always IN bis seat, but says nothing. He may
be brilsiaut representative, but I am sure
he is faithful, Intelligent one. Hs always
votes upon bis convictions, nnd on natural
| Instincts dislikes Copperhea1s. He represents
most worthily, ter1ito1 lally the largest conn
| tyin the State, and only second in nascr1al
| interests.
| Noop, OF EoqCo1s.-One Of the pleasant
t est and Intelligent faces before nc l. that Of
Mr.. Wood, Who worthily represents the conn'
| ty Of Iroqnois. His hair is dark, his face q
clear brunette, bis eyes dark and searching.
| He says nothing, but Is strictly up to his du-
ty as 0 representative. do not think ha is
an ornamental member, but clearly intelli-
gent and useful.
1suAs1, or CooK-I have said that Cook, oi
Cook, was one Of tho best looking men in the
House. Hope not to incur the hostility oi
the other members when I say that I think
!sham the best 1ookinsg-pcFhaps handsonest
is better phrase-u1an In the House. In
heisA tand weight he Is up to the true ideal
in such matters. His face is pleasant, intelll.
real ability, but his modesty has thus far con-
trolled him He has spoken but twice OF
three times, and although Lis remarks were
evidently .unprencditated, they challenged
the closest attention Of the members. When
his natural 1nodesty and timidity have been
in measure laid aside, he will be suro to be
recognized as one OF The fnFanaost men IN the
House. Cook connty will ever ind in him au
honest, Intelligent, eloquent md truthful
representative.
f1ScEsEY, or O0LE.-afr Pinckney L
rather largc sized, solid gentleman an in
tel1igent, but somewhat severe face. III
thoroughly understands his duty, md from
that there Is no vnriablencss or shadow o.
tu1ning. He is gentleman OF education,
md speaks directly to the point when he ad'
dresses the House, Which Is not often.
BuEcuARp,- or STEPHENSON One Of tht
most intelligent, 9ppreclatlTe and industElou;
Stephenson. He Is chairman Of the Commit
tee On Banks and Corporations, and You cal
readily understand from Facts which har
hitherto communicated to you that his tas}
is of tho HeIculean persuasion. Hc does no
speak znucl, bnt works hard. Afr. Burchart
: is an old member Of the House, and as pat
Humanitarian he has no superior His lntegrl
ty and fairness in all matters no mau ques
tions. He Is about the ordinary height, rath
CT fElly developed, with g smooth shaven. hol
est and Intelligent face. His age, shoul
guess, was IS.
These are some OF the faccs that arc beEor
me- There are more Of them, first faces
which ] shall speak Of, but not to-day.
