Something About Some Of the Members Who
Help to Make Up the Unwieldy Majority.
Among the faces on the Democratic side
of the House familiar to frequenters of In
diana legislative halls is that of Chester r.
Faulkner. of Ripley, who served two terms
as Senator and is on his second term in the
House. Mr.. Faulkner went into poll
tics years ago at the instigation of Dan
Voorhees, He is the only man in Indiana
who has voted three times for the Tall
Sycamore for United States Senator. and
he will make it four at the coming election.
This record is matter of considerable
pride to the statesman from Ripley, as Is
lative career he was never late, never
missed q roll-call and never lodged a vote.
Mr.. Faulkner Is close to seventy
years of age, is of medium height, has gray
hair and q short gray beard. He is a farmer
and native of Ohio and came to this State
in 1925.
Probably the wealthiest member of the
House Is Joseph +. Gent, of Bartholomew
who was elected while making a tour of
Europe. Mr.. Gent has q full, round face,
without n sign of beard or mustache, is
about sixty years of age and doesn't look
as though the affairs of state6 would
weigh very heavily upon him. He is quite
horseman, owns several speedy animals
He was recently elected president of the
new Indiana Trotting and Pacing Associa-
ton.
Ernst w. Pickhardt. who is serving his
second term in the House, represents
Lawrence, Dubois and Orange. He is
q good-looklng man of probably
thirty-five or thirty-siX. somewhat above
medium height. with a little brown mus
tacbe. His German origin would scarcely
be discovered in his speech which is purely
English. Mr.. Pickhardt represented Du-
bois and Martin two years ago. He is the
publisher Of two newspapers at hunting
burg, one O German weekly, called the
| Signal, and the other the News. an English
| paper.
William s. Oppenheim, of Fort Wayne,
| the Representative from Allen and Hunt
| ington. is serving his second term. He is
about thirty-six years old, tall. has light
| iors of the House. Mr.. Oppenheim is law
| yer, and was for three years deputy prose-
| cutting attorney under Representative
| Hencb, who was at that time prosecuting
| attorney of the Criminal Court of Allen
| county.
| William A. Cullop. who is taking his first
| lessons in statesmanship as the Representa-
| tive from Knox county. Is short, heavy
set man. with q brown mustache. He is
and it is predicted that he will attract at
| tention before the session is very old.
| He was for four years prosecut-
ing attorney of the Circuit Court
of Knox county. Although from the
| home uf Speaker Nihlack there isn't much
| affection wasted between the two members.

ment to the men, who in their turn
worked at the guns as cheerfully as if
they hoped to repulse the enemy.
At noon, Mercer, after consultation
with his officers, resolved to make an
attack on the enemy in the woods, and
if possible drive them back and spike
their guns. 1t was a forlorn hope, and
Colonel Lyman, who was to command it,
asked for volunteers, when the entire
garrison responded. He selected two
hundred men from New York and New
England besides Brant and his Mo-
hawks.
AS every thing depended on the sud-

concentrated his fire on the point of
attack, and under it's cover the little
column advanced in silence at the double

heads to strike the parspets Of the fort.

and when the cannon announced the
dawn of day with their iron lips only
dull reverberation reached the ears of
the steersman, who alone watched the
fading stars.
AS the first sound struck his ears, a
tinge of color came into his pale face,
and something like groan burst from
his lips. 81 feel like deserter,'' he
muttered, "and lit wasn't for the sake
