Versatility in dramatic artist who in his pro.
iesslon, Is called upon to present as true to ma
ture as possible the varied effects of passion and
the emotions, has always been esteemed a rar
| and desirable gift: but in the other spheres OF
llie, and especially in the political field, this
quality does not hold SO high place 1t could
hardly be said that wire puller was attra ctiye
whilst he was aping the manners of clergy
man neither would it be considered just the
thing for him to attempt at the same time, &c
play the roles of pawn-b broker and lover.
The many difficulties presented, and the OBJ
Jcchonable features of such presentment do not
prevent some daring spirits from assuming these
| characters and daring the criticisms of the pub
lie. As evidence of this give the history of a
little by-play which has been going on in this
city for viii past, in which the leading part
was taken by well known Radical politician.
About a year ago the Kellogg Senator from
Jefferson, r. H. Chadbourn, who has earned some
notoriety as a faithful follower of Kellogg, had
his political aspirations shaded Tor time by the
smiles Of a woman named Annie Hoard, who
moved in questionable society. Here commenced
a close acquaintance which lasted up to Sin
der the following circumstances:
The Deliah was the owner of considerable
jewelry, consisting of large diamond brooch,
three valuable rings a costly locket, and num-
Der Of other articles Of bijouerie worth about two
thousand dollars. Requiring money, she had
pawned them with a capitalist, who gave her as a
loan 1886 on the lot. Some time passed, when
this gentleman require his money, and accord
lngly notified her to that effect. She immed-
ately went to Chadbourn and asked him for
money enough to release them, offering to sell
her remaining jewelrv to assist in making up the
amount.
Chad answered that he had a friend who would
do it for him, as he then was without means and
he went out on his mission. On his return he
stated that he had got the money, released the
diamonds, and they were then in the hands Of
well-knoWn tax-collector who had given him the
money, and who would hold them for her as long
as she desired
Things went or quietly until short time since
when Chad came 10 her III haste one Saturday
and informed her that if the taX-coector did not
get his money by Monday morning, the jewels
would be sold. Size was alarmed at this news,
and complained Of the short notice.
Monday came and with it no money 80 she
could not take up the ptwned goods. She fire.
quently asked the gallant Senator what had be
c ome Of them, and was told they had been sold
for her debt. The truth came out at last how
ever, for when this tax collector was interviewed
he informed the deluded woman that Chad had
them long before and had taken them
into his possession. Surprised beyond all bounds
Chad was asked for them, but up to this time
the treasures have not been forthcoming, and he
either enjoys their sparkling brilliancy to himself
or he has elevated them up that conduit pipe,
sometimes called spout. This is a sample Radi-
cal Senator and this little act is in keeping with
another which occurred in Florida, wherein he
acted in perhaps more outrageous role
