THURmAN's BArDANNA.
The Romance OF Hia Snur Hahit
and the Handkerchief.

The Romance OF Hia snur Habit
and The Handkerchief.
The Thurman bandanna, the handker-
chief which is likely TO figure exten-
eively in the coming campaign, has ils
own romance. In 1894, when thur
man was Il years old. there arrived in
Chillicothe an erratic but accomplished
French emigrant, Emil Gregorie, who
subs quently became known as the
Professor He had been intended
for the Catholic priesthood, but while
in his studies for holy orders he fell
desperately ia love with 9 young girl
below him in social standing. Against
the entreaties of his friends he aban-
doned all thoughts OF the prie. thood
and finally married the girl. He

American agents in Paris he concluded
+, invest in West Virginia lands.
Like the ilI-fated Blennerhassett, who
bought an island ia the Ohio river, he
thought to establish an oriental pa'a-
disc in the wes'. His young wife gave
birth to daughter and died. Taking
the child, the grief-stricken father
named it Virginie. and came with it to
found a home in the new world.
When he found his lands were an un-
broken wilderness his disappointment
knew no bounds. He wandered about
the savsge border lands OF the west
until he reached Chillicothe, where he

French
Mrs Thurman. Aliens mother. heard
of him and his ability, and took care
Of the child in exchange for French
lessons for her son. The grateful Pari-
sian gave young Thurman most assid-
uous attention, but among other ac-
.mplishmsnts taught him the habit OF
taking snuff and the French nse Of
s'the handkerchief"
At fret Thurman could speak no
French and Vnginie no EngIish But
thsy soon acquired a vocabulary OF
common phrases, and became constant
companions and f1rln friends, Ihur-
mans first grief came whsn NJ. Greg

Louisiana. then . province Of Spa n.
Much to the regret Of DO b the young
people, he accepted the 10 itation, aud
left Chiliicothe for ''the Spanish terri
tory" For q while Thurman was di'-
consolAte, and even gsve up snuff
But on coming to Congre 3 aft rwards
he found the habit prevailing, With
"snuff, on the congressional free list,
and so he fell into the habit again.
Fo merly flourish of the bAndanna in
Chilhcothe was equivalent to saying
"Come into court" Hereafter it will
undoubtedly mean, ''Sound the slo-
