Senator Ingalls, has been credited with
saying that Harrison was making Hayes
great, but Ingalls, did not say that. Gen
eral Sheridan is the author of that neat
epigram. Senator ingalls, did say, how
ever, when some one called bis attention
to the fact that the president habitually
toes in, that "he didn't know whether or
not Mr. Harrison toed in physically, but
there was no doubt that he did mentally"
Senator ingalls, is happiest when he is say
ing sharp things. The man that has never
listened to the blistering, whitening words |
OF the senator from Kansas when applied |
to person whom he doesn't like is unfs-
miliar with the supercilious possibilities |
OF the English language. Ingalls, delights |
in epigrams. like his saying of Allison |
that the Iowa senator 'has no more back |
bone than rag" and of Hiscock that the /
New Yorker SIS vascular chumU." At /
times, too. ingalls, makes joke. One day |
just before the adjournment of congress |
for the holidays Washington was swaddled /
in thick fog. The capitol, dome and all, /
was buried in sheets of dense vapor. At /
that time Ingalls, lived right across the
street from the national state house, /
though he has since moved down town and |
taken up his quarters in a fashionable |
boarding house. On the foggy day Ingalls, |
had caller at his mouse, just before con-
gress met at noon, and on entering the
senator's coy library the guest remarked:
There is such a thick fog about the cap
itol that one cannot see the dome" 'Ah,"
exclaimed ingalls,, dryly, and glancing at
the clock Il didn't know it was so late. l
must hurry up and get over TO the senate
and hear the conclusion of Senator Blair's
speech. "-Chicago Herald.
