How ANDY JOHNSON LOoKs.-Andy john
son was interviewed the other day by cores
pondent of the St. Louis Republican: "Mr.
Johnson" we are told, "looks about 10 years
younger than he did when l saw him last Octo-
Der. His face wears happier and more pla-
cid expression than it did then. The thickly-
gathered lines about the eyes that used to give
his face the appearance of bling covered with
corrugated sheet iron have all been smoothed
out by the touch of success, and the harsh COM
press of the Inns that constant struggle had
made habtual has softened down into an ex
preston that hardly bespeaks the firmness of
the old man even when best natured and most
yielding His form is as erect as ever, his
step quick and firm as boy's, his shoulders
still suggest that they might have been laid out
with carpenters square, and except the silver
hair that curls gracefully about his round,
combative head there is nothing in his person
to tell the story of bis trials and tribulatons,
nor anything to suggest that his eventful life
has passed its prime"
