Correspondence Of The Chicago Inter Ocean. ]
The first sight the crowd caught of Mr..
Blaine was as he was engaged in CONVEX.
sation rs to the arrangement for speaking.
Everything gave way before the resound-
ing calls for Blaine. The bands stopped
playing, and the glee club stopped short
in their singing to swell the call. The
chairman was shouted down, and at last
Blaine said, II will speak to them" He
leaned forward in an attitude suggesting
q hand shake, and projected his voice
without apparent effort to every individu.
al Of the immense crowd. He said sim.
ply: II will speak here at one O'Clock.
If you will kindly give me your attention
at that time, will, as an old New Eng.
land friend of mine would say, submit y
few pints." The effort Of this was capi.
tai. He fired at the crowd, understanding
Its mood, and hit every individual Just
where he intended to hit him. Tie peo.
pie watched him, but were quiet, until az
the clergyman OF the uejghborhood was
introduced to him, Mr.. Blaine removed
bis hat This called out q cheer, which
nobody fairly understood. '.
In his afternoon speech Mr.. Blaine, as
has been described, was the polished ora.
tor. There was not false note ora bad
gesture. His speech was q model of di.
rectuess and elo4uencc. In the evening
he relaxed. He put his hands In his

A Lively Leave Taking.

As the family of I. W. Brown, of Vir-
ginia, New, was leaving for the Eastern
States, the affection OF the children for
their father came nigh causing q very
serious accident on the railroad track.
Mr.. Brown accompanied his family as
far as Haywards, and as he was leaving
the train, as usual OF the last moment,
the youngest child, a boy of three years,
leaped after his father and was received
in his arms the second child, sweet
little girl, sprung also to her father
while the car begun to move, aud in
catching the second he lost his footing
aud was falling GU the embankment,
when the third child, a boy of nine years
of age, leaped off the train and caught
his father and the two children as they
were rolling near culvert. All this was
almost instantaneous, but it was quickly
seen by the conductor, and, in he midst
of yelling and screaming of the fright
ened beholders on the train, the bell
was pulled and the signal given to stop.
Mr.. Brown got his children on board
and travelled to the next station with
them and their overjoyed mother, who
was pleased beyond words at the happy
deliveranoe of her family from what
seemed at one moment to become q very
serious accident. Mr.. Brown was con-
siderably scratched and bruised. 1t was
marvellous escape.
