Saratoga Cor Cincinnati Enquirer.l
Ben Wood is the most notable gambler OF
his day. Heis a scientific player. His pres
euce anywhere recalls the day when his
brother, Fernando Wood, mayor of New
York city, and the Woods ruled that city
completely. In Washington, as a congress-
man, Ben Wood became noted for the heavy
poker hands he played and for his skill at
whist. lie is one of the best whist players
In the world. He never plays without bet
ting. He Will not play four-handed game
with partner, but gives point TO his an-
tagoDist, and uses dummy.
Woods appearance, especially under the
white rays OF the electric light, Is startling.
Ills huge face has an ashen white color that
Is seen IN women who use opium. His big
mustache is as white as his face. He gen
orally wears a white palm-leaf hat, which is
bleached to color corresponding to the
paleness Of his face. His eyes, which are
light blue, are constantly In motion, hut Mt
the same time have q set, impassive look
about them. They are what you would call
impTessiOnless eyes You can never read
what Is passing In Ben Woods mind by any
token from his orbs.

HON. hal T. WALKER.
The First and Only Child Born in the
white House.

The First and Only Child Born in tho
white House.
Hon Hal 7. Walker, now leading
lawyer Of Montgomery. Ala, and known to
fame as the only child born in the white
house, was born In Washington, D. c.,
Sept. Is, 1915, during the administration of
President James X. Polk. His father, ].
Knox Walker, was a nephew OF that dis
tingushed Tennesseean President, and being
also the private secretary Of the President,
resided with his family at the homo of the
rulers OF the republic when Capt. Walker,
the subject OF this sketch, commenced his
voyage Of life. Col. j. X. Walker was also
well known as politician Of considerable
distinction In Tennessee, and as a gallant
soldier In the confederate armies during the
war between the states. He commanded
the I'd Tennessee, $. Q. A, and no better
regiment with no worthier commander ever
served in the armies of the south,
Capt. Hal L. Walker entered the south
ern army at the age OF 10, and began mis-
military career as an ald.de.camp on the
staff OF Gen. Preston Smith After serving
In this capacity until that distinguished
oiiicer was killed, he was appointed one of
the staff OF Gen. Frank o. Armstrong, his
brother-in-law, with whom he served during
the rest OF the war. The fight at Selma,
Ala, between the confederate forces under
Gen. Dick Taylor and the federas under
Gen. Wilson, was the last engagement In
which Capt. Walker participated. He
was paroled ut Columbus, Miss, In May,
1865.
After the war Capt Walker found himself
ruined In fortune, as were almost all the
sustaiuers Of the lost cause lie returned
TO Memphis, Tenn, and carried on 4 m.r

From Ben Perley Poore's New Book.l
When Randolph, of Roanoke, was about
TO fight Representative Eppes, of Virginia,
Gen. Breckenridge undertook to superin.
tend his practice, and said to Mr.
Crawford, OF Georgia, who was to be his
second on the field "By all means arrange
the matter, for Mr.. Randolph can't hit a
barn door" When Randolph exchanged
shots with Henry Clay, and they shook
hands after the first fire, Randolph jo-
cosely observed, pointing to hole made
by the bullet In his flannel dressing gown
"Mr. Clay, you owe me a gown" Mr.. Clay
promptly replied, with his usual smile: ~
am glad, Mr. Randolph, that am not
deeper in your debit In one Of Mr.. Cal
houn's earlier speeches In Congress he
criticised Mr.. Randolph for his "audacity in
comparing himself TO the great Lord
Chatham" Mr.. Randolph modestly dis
claimed the pretension, but added ''In one
thing we are alike. Every scoundrel assalls
me-" and as he spoke he pointed his long
index finger at Mr.. Calhoun.
