Another Congressman told a good story
If Judge Campbell. While the Judge was
a member of Congress, there was treachery
in one of the Assembly districts composing
his Congressional district. The news
papers were commenting on its effect upon
the Judges future political prospects. A
brother member, upon meeting hlnl' eN
messed a fear that ii would be so damag-
ing that Mr. Campbell would be defeated, II
renominated.
ION. no. replied the Judge with the ut
most confidence. Il know myself, ana
know my people. I've been reading poetry
lately. The poets always get things rlght-
There's one verse written by a fellow
named Tennvson that Just suits my case.

Judge Campbell was one Of the most pop
ular men in the House. A more genial
and obHring gentleman never breathed
He was particularly affable To new mem
bers. In the last Congress he introduced
new member To Governor Gear, who repre-
sents the old First district of Iowa. The
Governor, who is fully as genial as the
Judge. shook hands with the new acqualnt-
ance and said oh yes. / remember you
perfectly. You We're member OF the last
House.
oh. no. Governor, Judge Campbell re-
marked: The is a new member You're
entirely of. This House is a virgin forest

The Representative, who overheard the
remark. here broke in with the inquiry
'.What is "A virgin foreSt.'
A virgin forest" Mr.. Campbell re
sponded, "A virgin forest is-i-s- Of
course any man knows what virgin for
est is-a virgin forest is"
Here he began working his hands as
though he was working buzz-wheel. a
virgin forest is place-wel, it's a place
where the hand Of man has never put his
foot.
One of the best incidents of the Judges
career in Congress occurred just after the
violent debate in the Senate between Sena-
tors ingalls, and voorhees,. The words
internal liar" dirty dog 'villainous
scoundrel" and other epithets were freely
used. Two days afterward Judge Camp
bell was called out of the House by an i'm
Fortunate constituent On his return he
entered through the main door. \ violent
Spat between two members was IN pro
gress. The Judge was half way down the
aisle when the word "liar' was used.

Where Human Life Is Cheap.

CYSTHIANA, Kentucky, March 90
Benjamin Brewel was lynched at Rob
inson station last night bya mob of
about twenty persons. The victim
came to this country several years ago
representing himself as a Phila-
delphian. He bought little stock
paid for it, and kept on buying and
paying, increasing his purchases from
time to time and was reasonably
prompt in his payment until two
years ago, when he bought and ship
ped away about So, 900 worth of live
stock, for which he gave fraudulent
checks, mostly on Philadelphia banks.
BY some means his villainy became
known sooner than he intended and
he fed. His whereabout remained
unknown until within few days. On
his return he refused to talk of set
Element, and apparently he had money.
About II o'clock last night twenty
men carefully disguised, went to his
boarding house, took him out of bed,
and despite his piteous pleas hanged
him to an oak tree in the corner OF
the TOWNSHIP burying ground, where
his body was found this morning.

Proposed Indoor Meeting Under the Au

Proposed Indoor Meeting Under the Au-
spices of the East End Gymnastic Club.
Prof. Kircnner is trying to arrange grand
indoor athletic meeting to be given under the
auspices of the East End Gymnastic Club
within the next few weeks. The events will be
open to all amateurs, and he has the promise
of quite a number of entries from Philadelphia,
and the probabilities are that Prof. Klrchner
will be assisted In the management of the affair
by Prof. Finkeldey, of the Y. NJ c. A. Gyna-
sium of Philadelphia.
1t will be strictly frst-class affair, and all
the colleges in the State will be invited to send
represent tatives to enter the contests. Mem
bers of all amateur clubs will be eligible to the
events. which will be handicap all through.
The programme of events will be: Straight
away run the length of room, 90 yards dash,
40 yards dash, $50 yards run, one-mile run.
running high jump, running high kick, putting
the shot, lightweight wrestling, standing high
jump, running hi b jump, tug of war.
No such event has ever been held in Pitts
burg, but such entertainments have long been
very popular in the East and are attended by
society people more than the sporting frater-
nifty, from the fact that the contestants will all
be amateurs, members of clubs of high
standing. and welLknown young men of every
profession and the best standing The club
hopes to make this. meeting successful, and
other meetings of q similar character will be
held. and thus place the city in its proper
position in regard to amateur athletics.
