The New Speaker.

Hon. Charles Frederick Crisp, of
Georgia, happened to be born in
Sheffield, England. His mother was
there on visit from America. The
popular idea is that Mr.. Crisp is thus
debarred from the Presidency by
this fact, just as it was thought John
S. Wise is on account of his birth i'm
South America. But in both cases
the men are children of American
parents and citizens merely in a for
eign country on visit or on busi-
ness. If location has anything to do
in preventing Judge Crisp becoming
President, it is only his location in
the South.
Crisp is now A years old. His
parents were well-known actors.
Crisp got his education in the public
schools in Savannah and Macon.
He entered the Confederate army
when 16, and became a Lieutenant
in Virginia Regiment. After three
years service he was sent to Fort
Delaware, where he was kept till
the end OF the war. His parents
were then living at Ellaville, Schley
County, Ga. Crisp was admitted
to the bar and practiced law in Ella
vile for six years, and was then ap.
pointed Solicitor General of the
Southwestern Judicial Circuit. In
1878 he located permanently in
Americas. Four years later he
became Judge OF the Superior Court,
and five years afterward resigned to
accept a nomination for Congress.
He presided over the Georgia Dem
ocratic State Convention in the en-
suing year, and entered the House
of Representatives at the beginning
of the session in 1883. Crisp is one
of the most faithful and persistent
workers in Congress. He is hardly
ever absent from his seat.

sell Sage, one of New York's million
aire brokers, and demanded from Mr..

mand was of course refused, when
he exploded dynamite bomb, which
wrecked the whole interior of the

fully injured, but not seriously. The
crank who exploded the bomb was
blown to atoms. One of Mr.. Sage's
clerks was killed, two others fatally
injured, and several other person
in the building received injuries. MI
c. f. James, of Chattanooga, who
was in Mr.. Sage's private Office at the
time of the explosion, was consider
ably shocked, and slightly bruised
The man gave his name as w. d
Wilson. He has not been positively
identified as yet, but it is supposed
that he was an escaped lunatic.

There is fine of $50 hanging over
