| tive and Intelligent men, as well as gen.
eral reading, have SO far supplied the
! defects Of early education that he is a
man of considerable culture. He re-
moved to Indiana in early manhood, To-
Gated IN Vermilion county and soon
( became noted as a successful farmer
and stock dealer. His standing with his
neighbors was so high that he soon be-
came power in local politics, and in
that close and very political state such
local strength is never long neglected
He was nominated for the legislature in
a county spoken of as "hopelessly Re
publican" and his unexpected success
made him power in the state.
IN 1882 he was nominated for senator
from the district composed of Parke and
NermlIion counties, and though Parke
usually has Republican majority of
600 and Vermilion Of 800, he cut this
down about one-half In 1890 he was
nOminsted again for the same place.
but before the campaign opened the state
convention nominated HIM for auditor
Of state and he was elected The fact
that he then received the unanimous
and enthusiastic support of the Farmers
Alliance no doubt had much to do with
his recent nomination for governor.
His place in Vernilion county, in the
loveliest part of the Wabash valley, is
the ideal home of a gentleman farmer.
1t is also the home of a very practical
farmer. Personally Mr.. Matthews is
one of those men Of whom the HOLSTERS
say, THE nearer you get to him the bet
ter you like him" His tenants and en-
ployees are always his most enthusiastic (
supporters. He has been fairly prosper
Gus in business, and his family ana so .
cial life is pleasant and attractive. In
he is ordinarily pleasant.
but as a speaker he IS singularly effect
i've, his style being plain, direct and in
cisive. with occasional touches Of home
" eloquence-iE short, the kind Of speech
ma: Is most effective among farmers.

Portland, Or, and Dallas have recent
ly distinguished themselves by erecting
elegant city halls, and Arkansas has won
fame IN another direction by being the
only state to have building at Chicago
IN 1893 designed by woman. Miss Jean
Loughborough, whose plans for the Ar
kansas clubhouse were accepted, has
been assistant for some time in the Office
Of Mrs. Potter Palmer, at Chicago, but
on the 10th of May she will be married
IN Little Rock to Mr.. Frank III. Douglass.
They will reside permanently in Chi,
cagO. She had a native talent for de-
signing buildings, improved it by long
study and won the Arkansas committees
approval in a competition with many
others.
The new city hall at Dallas is plain
and massive, rising several stories with
out exterior ornament. 1t is just exact
~ suited to its surroundings, and will
have an importing effect, but in the
lower part of New York city such
structure would be outdone by its sur
roundings.

There is a chastened elegance about the
American matron that her English sister
sometimes lacks. The mammas of the

exquisite finish and completeness that are
not often seen across the pond. They have

give serious attention to their figures. One
never sees an American matron whose skirt
hangs at defective angle. Their corsets

PORTLAND CITY HALL

ent city hall on the north and the post
Office at the south point, was originally
left for the purpose, but as it is the only
open space in the heart of business New
York it grieves the citizen to think of
putting anything in it. Bryant park
has advocates, but it is too remote
from the law courts. Add that the
structure must be very magnificent in
order TO show up with its neighbors,
and that there are millions IN it for con-
tractors, and it Is plain that the case
must be political from start to finish.

Record of Claude Matthews. Nominee for
Governor of Indiana.
The Democrats of Indiana have chosen
a farmer candidate for governor in the
person of the Hon. Claude Matthews, of
Vermihon county. Though he has held
Office hitherto and been man of note
in the politics Of the state for many
years, he is still distinctively farmer
candidate, and in a truer sense than
most to whom that title is applied, as
farming has been the business of his life.

Architecture in the United States is a
rapidly developing science, and every
new building of any size and pretensions
Is studied with national interest. The
west and south have an immense advan-
tage in their abundance of room, but in
most cases their structures are not of
the largest and their appropriations are
necessarily limited. New York city, on
the other hand, has all the money heart
could wish for her new city hall, but
the place to put it is a problem-one
that agitates all the officials and has ez-
cited a long and heated controversy
among journalists and politicians.

Battle of Franklin.

Although oft recounted, that charge
of 0pdlcKe's Brigade at Franklin can
never become tedious, by repetition,
in the minds of the old soldiers. Spe-
cul acts of heroism are cherished by
all n, and the annals of warfare
furnish no greater feat of valor, no
more gallant achievement, and one
of greater significance TO the army
and nation than the charge here re.
ierred 20.
Gen. Opdycke was the idolized
Colonel of the l25th Ohio. aud when
promoted and given command OF the
First Brigade. Second Division, Fourth
Corps, his old regiment followed him,
and | can :ecullect no time-aay inn
portant occasion-when we were

at the battle ot Franklin, on the re-
treat from Spring Hill to Franklin, we
were rear-guards on the Columbia
pike, and he was with us. We p ,ssed
over the works ut Franklin, amt when
about 100 yards to the rear our regi.
ment filled lett" ut right angie with
the pike,and with the left comp lny(B

MY recollections Is that we were
then continuation OF the brigade
line, with the other regiments on the
opposite side of the pike. Only a
moment and the battle began. Ii the
SSth III. was also rear guards that
day, then we must have taken this
position at the same time, or nearly so
about p. m. Ifnot, | can readily
see how it was that Opdycke consult
ed with Col. Smith about orders. He
certainly was about where he should
be to render that effective service.
When the battle began-when the
Lall opened-I mean that cannon-ball
that came bounding down the pike
Opdycke was sitting on his horse with.
in few feet of us. About this time
pandemonium broke loose; the South
ern Confederacy came pouring over
our works.

down with his huge paws and chest on
IL as II IL were alive and might escape.
Then he carries IL in his mouth, snarling,
with ears angrily set back, and lies down
with 1t in corner. He is not so par.
ticularly hungry after all, for before he
eats he plays with 1t, pretends that it is
alive and is trying to get away and has
TO be sprung upon and captured several
times, after which he licks it all over to
make it clean and purrs and then de-
YOURS it. This is the pantomime the
tigers go through every time they are
fed. When they are eating they do not
seem to like being watched. They get
into the farthest corners, aud il they
catch your eye will growl and snarl.
When the bone is polished, or perhaps
ground up and eaten, they wipe off their
whiskers, lick their paws and rub their
faces with the moistened pads, and spend
quite half an hour in their toilets. Then
they sit on their launches, blink, and
play just little, and, perhaps, put a
finishing touch to each others toilet.

wagging slowly and expectantly the
black paint -brush.like end of his long
tail. II he speaks at all it is in low
tones, and his wife always backs him
up in few words OF her own. But
generally he says nothing at all, aud in
these cases she says nothing. When the
meat man comes into the building he
sits on his tail. When he approaches he
rises to receive him, and looks him a
glaring welcome. He receives his blood
red vctuals with growl Of triumph,
and devours it with erunt of content.
His wife has piece of good COW, too,
but he is not jealous. And what he
leaves, in his lordly manner, he leaves TO
her. There is no quarreling, but the
lord once in way exercises little neces
sary discipline, of course.

est things they can think OF while they
are having their family table d'hote. or
course, this is due to the absence of their
parents, who would teach them that the
male eats first and the female eats mex,
and cleans up the dishes.
It may be said that with the exception
of the magnificent old lion, none of the
animals have good table manners. They
neither look after their wives nor their
children. The hyenas, the jackals, and
even the little red foxes fight savagely
for the food thrown in to them, and. in.
deed, all the animals fed on hesh,
whether large or small, do so.
Even the hippopotami have learned to
open their huge red mouths for the bis.
