Of Iowa, Our New Minister to German

Hon. John A. Kasson, who was
lately appointed as Minister to Ger
many, was born at Burlington, vt
January 18th, 1922. He acquired
the rudiments of his education in
the public schools of his ne;ghbor-
hood, and when twenty years of
age graduated from the University
of Vermont. ULon leaving this
institution he determined to study
law, and pursued a course of read
ing in Massachusetts and after be
ing admitted to practice he remov-
ed to St. Louis where he engaged
in his profession until 1887, where he
settled in Des Moines, Iowa. In
the following year he was elected
state director in the organization of
the State Bank of Iowa, and in the
next was state commissioner to in
vestigate and report on the condi-
ton of the executive department
of Iowa. About this time he was
elected chairman of the Republican
state committee, and in 1860 he was
both delegate to the Chicago con-
vention and the representave OF
Iowa on the platform committee
Upon the Inauguration of President
Lincoln, Mr.. Kasson was appointed
first assistant postmaster general, q
position he occupied until the fall
OF 1862, when he resigned to accept
a nomination for Congress, but in
the ensuing election was defeated
In 1868 he was appointed U. S
commissioner to the International
Postal Congress held in Paris. Or
his return he was elected a member
of the Thirty-Eighth Congress, anc
at the close of that was chosen fol
the Thirty-Ninth. In 1867 hi
visited Great Britain, France, Bel
gium, Holland, Germany, Switzer
land and Italy as United State:
Commissioner to negotiate posta
connections, and succeeded in in
ducing all the governments excep
that of France to sign the prelim
mary agreements. From 1868 t.
1873 he served as member of tn
General Assembly of Iowa, and wa
elected to the Forty-third anC
Forty fourth Congresses.
Soon after his accession President
Hayes appointed Mr.. Kasson United
States Minister to Spain, but on &C
count of the stand he had publicl,
taken in Congress upon the subjec
of Spanish atrocities in Cuba he de
clined the portfolio, and was thel
given that of the Austrian mission
Upon his return from Vienna, h
returned home and was elected t
the Forty-seventh congress from hi
old district. He has ranked as on
of the Republican leaders of tn
House, and his retirement from tina
body will be greatly regretted.

A Lay Of Lawn Tennis.

Where the level lawn is greenest, and the sun
light glistens sheenest,
Lo! she stands;
While the game is just beginning. there's the
racket poised for winning,
In her hands.
She is daintily athletic, she is very energetic
In the set;
her by her sister,
Ger the net
She is great at "Renshaw smashes," tits a stroke
that rather rash is
All the same;
But her pretty little muscles are quite equal to
the tussles
Happy he who stands beside her and is privil.
eyed to guide her,
As she plays
would do that pleasant duty to this Amazonian
beauty
All my days.
.Is watch her garments futter there are words
fain would utter,
But I'm dumb;
For she's tennis mad, and never from her racket
seems to sever
When come
must take my chance while PLAYING, there's
danger in delaying;
I'll con6de
My devotion SO answering to the lady when
I'm serving
BY her side!
But all Atalantas PAGES, when she ran her fam
GUS races,
Were more feet;
The Milanion in olden days, I'd cast the apples
golden
At her feet,

wildly and stopped short at another
hill. Before it was fully stopped
Mr.. Beacher jumped off with sur
prising agility. When the sympa-
thizing friends, all a-tremble, caught
up with the tricycle., they found
Mr.. Beecher almost drowned in
cold perspiration. He avowed that
he would never try again, but he
has, and now he slides down that
hill with great enjoyment, horse
dragging the machine home from
the foot of the hill.
