RALEIGH, N. {
hat down over his forehead. It has been
said of him that he is big cherub At
ter neat shave his face is so fair, so
clear, so bright, and his paunch so round,
his costume is so cool, his manners so
refreshing and inviting that he looks
like heavy weight angel. Gen. Clark
son is so; his Christian names is James
not John as so many newspaper writer's
insist upon writing it. He was chief
headsman of the postoffice department
under Mr.. Harrison, but with all his
virile partisanship he wasn't patch on
the pyramids to the Hon Adlai E. Ste
venson, Of Bloomington, Mr.. Cleveland's
chief headsman. Mr. Clarkson was the
owner of the Des Moines Register and
has comfortable fortune of $1,000 Or
| thereabouts.
Cornelius N Bliss, in charge of the
cash box of Mr.. Carter's bureau, is 90
years old and merchant worth two mil
| lions. He is thick set, we'll fed, well
clothed, with side whiskers not as thick
and luxuriant as Mr.. Dickinson's, but
cut very much after the same fashion,
only gray. Mr.. Bliss has all the ways of
prosperous merchant, austere at times,
but kindly in his sentiments, and his ex-
pressions and demeanor are those of a
gentleman in the best sense of the word
Mr.. Bliss could have been the candidate
for governor of his party in New York
State last fall had he not declined the
honor. He is one of the principal direct
ors of the Fourth National Bank, of
which Democrat J. Edward Simmons is
president, director in steamship and
railroad lines, and republicans will re
gard his requests for campaign funds
when they refuse others, tribute, it is
said, to the personal integrity of Mr..
Bliss.
The Hon Samuel Fessenden, of Con
nectcut, of the republican executive
committee, is always addressed by hit
intimates as plain Sam. He doesn'
like to read Samuel before his name ir
newspaper. He walks with a cane
and, with the Hon. Joseph H. Manley
, always addressed as Joe, is quite a
much an angel as Gen. Clarkson. Mr.
Fessenden is so and Mr.. Manley a few
more years than that. The two are grea
, chums, and both have been sturdy Blaine
men for years. Both have light hal
and blue eyes, catching personalities
happy expressions, and they roam
through the corridors of the uptown
hotels as happy and as larky as tw
!, schoolboys.
a Senator John G.. Carlisle, of Kentucky
J one of Mr.. Harrity's most recent visitors
looks like an ascetic. He is tall an,
spare, with thin white hair and nous
9 tache and is partial to tall white ha
and light colored clothes, always with
+ frock coat, which he keeps tightly but
= toned. Senator Carlisle's manners ar
g grave and reticent. He is 80, if a day
and strides through the streets rapidly
He comes from the State SO picturesque
g described at the Chicago conventid
!, "where the maidens are the fairest an
:, sweetest, where the matrons are the mo!
y wholesome and womaniy, and where th
;, whiskey is so choice that intemperance
y virtue" Northern democrats say Sci
y ator "Car-isle,' to the amazement {
70 Southern democrats, who say Senate
70 Gear -lisle."
