ins go-froze TO death.
Miss Louise Anderson of Hartford, died

She had been failing a long time and her

The Detroit Erening Nesos discourses as
follows, concerning our representative in the
state legislature:
j. q. Parkhurst, of Decatur, is the most
indue ential speaking member ON the floor.
He has a massive face, every feature of
which beams with good sensJ and benevo-
lence. His hair, beard and mustache are
silvery-white, but he shows too much vitality
and is too young (56) to be described as hav-
ing venerable appearance. Ten years from
now the word will just fit him. He is not a
brilliant speaker, but talks fuently, plainly,
sensibly and shrewdly, showing considerable
knowledge of human nature, law, history,
and men and things. But his distinguish
ing Characteristic, among other excellent
qualities, is his transparent, open, old-fashion-
ed honesty of purpose. He does not aspire
to be leader, but has following of from
ID to 20 silent members of both parties
mostly republicans like himself-who vote on
non-partisan bills and subjects that he favors.
There is no concert between those members,
and no agreement with Mr.. Parkhurst, but
II is a fact that. great many of them are
rather puzzled how TO vote unless he gives
the keynote. He is an old-time abolitionist
and temperance man, and has the courage of
his convictions, but he has none of the Of
fensive zeal of the fanatic, while his manners
are charming in their kindliness and courtesy.
Besides practicing law he operates 30-acre
fruit farm, and also has stock raising interests
in Dakota.
