Horace Porter, who is a slender we'll.
proportioned man. forty.eight or so. with
a gray mustache and imperial. and who
is probably. after Chauncy Depew. the
best known after-dinner speaker in this
country. explained to Brooklyn Eagle
writer the other day how he was able to
keep up the public banquet racket as he
does Said he: ''If a man ate all the
courses that were set before him. he
would be digestive wreck in six months.
No man can stand the endless entrees.
particularly II he is to say anything when
the feeding is over. And he is wise If
he refrains from looking upon the wine
cup when it is red and saves himself for
the chsmpagnes. Any constitution, even
the strongest, is soon undermined by
those heavy feeds. and learned long ago
to pick out dish or two on msnus and
stick to those, eating heartily Of those and
leaving the others alone. II the soup
be Of a simple sort ! eat it all, but tur-
tie soup. mulligatawny, and the like let
severely alone. Then ! get . good bit
Of roast somewhere along the list; veg.
stsbls, . salad, with bit Of cheese and .
cup Of coffee. make my meal; and I am
ready for speschmaking after. with light
heart and stomach and clear head. I
drink little sherry sometime, with soup.
but champagne is my dinner tipple, as l
find it always stimulates instead Of cloud
ing the brain. Depew follows my tactics,
too, think. He always gets good bite
Of the ham and is fond Of chicken in any
form; but he eschews the entrees and all
their works, and never drinks more than
two wines. II we hadn't got down to
seme such system long ago we would
mover have bssn able to live upso The ne,
esssities Of the situation. I've seer
diners come. and 20. They eat hearth,
u everything, drink all the wines, kseT
their wits at the topmoat stretch for three
or four hours. That goes on for q few
years. and either they begin to get dull
and cloudy. to tell old stories and tel
them over and over, to take offence easil,
and be quarrelsome, and 90 get left oul
when lists Of invitations are being made
up, or else they screw themselves up t.
the point with brandy drank before din
nsr. and directly you hear Of their beini
whisked od somewhere for complete rest
victims to nervous prostration and paral
ysis. or down they 20 with crash--apo

kind. In reality they have been burn

aay such tickets were in the county at the

several, indeed very many republicans IN the
county did vote for Mr.. Compton in connec-

done by scratching the name of Mudd and writ.
