THE STEVENSON CHILDREN.
"There are several families who came
here from Christian county. An uncle
John w. Ewing, was the first and was one
of the first mayors 1t has been forty years
since | first saw Bloomington as boy Of
fifteen, and it was then a village of 1,50(
people. Several of the Ewings of my
mothers family, including Wing Ewing
of Chicago, and my partner, James Ewing
were among them. Wing Ewing's right
name was William, but years ago, before
the war, when Lincoln was a lawyer here,
he stopped at the tavern kept by the elder
Ewing. He nicknamed the boy 'Whig,
and it has stuck to him so long that he hiss
accepted it as his right nam e. proud of his
godfather.
"My father died when / was twenty

Crittenden, of Missouri; w. G. p. Breckin-

Creary, r. p Jacobs, Judge Dulaney and
DoStor Young, all eminent Keutuckians.

married. as you know, at Chenoa, a little
town laid and named by Matt Scott, a
brother-in-law. 1t is an old Indian name,
originally spelled 'Chenowah,' but this
practical generation cut it short.
"No, my family did not mingle much in
Washington society, as my eldest daughter
was then mere schoolgirl-a child. Be

friend once said, never had more than
fifteen dollars ahead in my life. l guess
that was too low an estimate for perhaps

You can see that we live plainly, but with
comfort"
The frankness and easy way of General
Stevenson strike the stranger very favor
ably, and he never hesitates for a word or
a ready answer to any question. He is
quick, keen, and while making no display
of shrewdness certainly conveys the idea
of it from the start.
Cleveland first met Stevenson as a men,
Der of the committee which formally told
him of his nomination in 1884. Grover
took a great fancy to the Sucker politician,
and had he been more eminent might have
put him in the cabinet As it was he was
appointed Principally at the request of
Villas.
His business does not allow him much
time for legal practice, and as a Worlds
fair director he has Travelled through
Mexico and other countries preparing for
exhibits. He is also president of the In
terstate Building s-3 Loan association, a
prosperous conCu-2, with headquarters in
this city
His good old mother is of course very
proud of her sons success ana declares
that he ought 70 be a good vice president.

the Presbyterian sect, and received a little
lead token from an elder before he could
sit in close communion at the Lords Sup
per. President Cleveland is the son of a
Presbyterian preacher, and while not par
ticularly religious has always kept in
mind the early teachings of his father.
His grandfather and great-grandfather on
the Cleveland side were also preachers.
General Stevenson completes the quartet
of Presbyterians, and the people of this
country are bound to have Presbyterian
in the White House whichever party wins.
The Second Presbyterian church, of
Bloomington, where General Stevenson
md his family attend, is very small, UNI
pretentious brick structure, painted gray,
and standing two blocks from the court
house square. The interior is very plain,
the decorations being of wall paper with
considerable color for church, and the
stained glass windows also being rather
gaudy. 1t is not large audience room
and has no regulation pulpit, the pastor
preferring to stand out plainly before his
people and but step above them, while
the quartet choir renders Indifferent music
from behind him.
The Stevenson pew is No. Sc, not quite
half way up the center aisle. The pastor
is Rev. w. p. Kane, recently called here
from La Fayette Ind. He is a tall, finely
built man, quite an exponent in fact OF
muscular Christianity. There was some
surprise on the first Sunday after the gen
erals nomination that no one but himself
and daughter Mary were present, but Mrs.
Stevenson was worn out by the excitement
of the week and could see no one even at
home. This | found when | called, but
the general himself opened the wire
screens, asked me in, rendered cigar and
was as CHEEKY as country lawyer welcom-
ing new client.
"First of all, general" l said, "let me
ask you where you got that name Adlai?"
He laughed, then answered:
cit is not generally known, but that is a
strictly Scriptural name, although not a
common one. Its meaning is 'the just"
and am proud of it, For several genera
tions it has been in our family, ON my
mothers side, like that of Whitelaw in the
family of my competitor. | hope will
sustain the meaning of the name in my
career"
Continuing as to the family history, he
added:
"My great grandfather was Scotch
Irishman, born in Ireland, and settled in
Iredell county, N. c. | have today re-
ceived a letter from Governor Armfield
who lives in that county, and he claims me
as of old North Carolina stock also pledg-
ing me the vote of all my relations and
every Democrat My grandfather moved
to Christian county, KY, in 1918, and
settled on Little river, ten miles south of
Hopkinsville, where I was born. l re-
ceived my first schooling from James
Caskey, one of the old time school teach
ers, who had profound contempt for the
new ideas of moral suasion He kept no
books to note our standing and progress
by marks. The marks he gave were car
ried by the pupils on their bodies. He was
a firm believer in total depravity, especially
of his pupils, and there was nothing in the
conduct of boys at that time to dispel the
idea. He is long since dead.

comes these diseases, and cuts off all
tendencies toward a fatal result.

Salem that hop buyers in the vicini-

fering to contract prime quality
of hops at 35 cents. 1t is known
positively thst 25 cents has been of
fered near Salem for some time, but
the 35 cents rumor was an astonish-

THE DETECTIVES RETURN.
Exciting Chase After the German
Schneider by Ross and
Cavanaugh.
Yours truly,
M. WILKINS.

James Ross and Jos. Cavanaugh
returned last night from a six-day
trip after the last batch of four es-
capped convicts. They were in the
region of CASTOR, Oregon City, Butte
Vile, and WOODBURY.. The report
that there was a crazy man about
Woodburn who entered houses and
frightened women put them on track
ofone of the cons, and they were soon
convinced that it was Schneider. AT
the place where he entered the house
the women called the head of the
family aud he drove him off with a
rifle.
Schneider went from there down
the river to Jacob Miley's landing
where he was seen by Miley's son
who gave a good description of him.
At dusk he stole Miley's boat. The
boys heard him leaving and soon
headed him off, Schneider getting off
on the west side at Kruse's landing
and turning the boat adrift. AT 10
p. M. Friday he stole Kruse's boat
and it was picked up at Canemah.
After this the detectives could get
no trace of him. There are some
ex-convicts at Oregon City and he
