P. A. Krashus, the erstwhile publisher of
the Caledonian journal, accompanied by
Hon. G. j. Lamen. of this city, were among
the callers at the capitol yesterday Mr.
Krashus is never backward in perpetrating q
joke, and his propensity in this sphere is not
appalled, at all by the dignity that may apper-
tain to state functiopary. State Auditor
Biermann was his victim yesterday.
You are not married yet?'' he asked
quizzically.
''Oh, moi Ihave no feeling of haste, and
am not liable to become benedict rashly. {"
replied Mr.. Biermann smiIingly.
You remind me of one of Bob Ingersolrs
famous speeches in the Hayes and Tilden
controversy just after the election SAID the
Caledonian refectiveIy. Bob. you know,
was an arch supporter of Hayes He made
luminous speech, in which he first COM
pared the war records of the two party lead
ers. Then he took a turn at their social pro-
clivities as exemplifed by their relations.
He pictured Hayes enjoying all the eonnubial
bliss that Is attainable in temporal life, and,
turning to the inverse side of the question,
he said: 'Tilden-jast imagine him, SO cold
and devoid of the holy passions Of human
existence; so devoid OF the finer instincts o t
his sex that he prefers the embraces of the
Democratic party to the embraces of lovely
woman That applies to YOU"
Mr.. Biermann laughed and modestly con-
fessed that the illustration was apt.
