1uc Octud S1ut WaS
The many points of strong resem-
blance between Mr.. Robert Davis and
the Father Of Lies have been gener-
ally observed in Hudson County, b ut
the family likeness was never Q
impressive than in MI. Davis's on
duct in these days of his sore distress
Mr.. Davis is in a very bad way. he
has been beaten black and blue by
the public, whose rage he excited.
The medicines that he prescribed for
himself have turned to poison in his
anatomy. Mr.. Davis is a very SICK
man. He is nigh unto death-pollt-
teal death.
And SO he turns saint. He becomes
a reformer, a mugwump. He dis
covers that the public has lost con-
fdence in the present Democratic
County Committee, and he sets up q
wall for its disarmament and for d
election of a new one, a real. pure, good
one, you know. in which the public
can repose it's trust.
In his present position. Mr.. Davis is
simply despicable. His treachery In
attempting to place on the shoulders
OF others the burden of his own
crimes and follies is one of the mean
est exhibitions of political seltishness
we have ever heard of. His absurd
pretence of favoring publication ana
reorganization in the interests OF de-
cency is simply an insultto the public
intelligence. The people know Mr..
Davis. He must surely understand
how we'll they know him. Has he
the effrontery to hope that they Will
put the faintest future trust in him?
Does he think there is any man in
Jersey City so foolish as to believe in
the good Of anything that he has
hand or part in7
Now. we have no desire to see the
present County Committee perpetu-
ated. It is about as Ineffective as 1t
is corrupt, and about as corrupt as tits
ineffective, and yet it would be better
to stagger on under its management
than to subject the party to the dis
grace of a partial reformation with
Mr.. Davis as reformer.
This is the plan now in contempla-
tion-the plan behind Mr.. George
Bouton's motion to be made on Fri
day night for the disbandment OF the
Committee. Mr.. Bouton is just at
present under MI. Davis control. he
made his .'break'' of last Friday night
under instructions from Mr.. Davis.
All Mr.. Davis healers will have
orders to vote for his motion next
Friday. The purpose and aim is to
keep the reforming" process in con-
troll OF Mr.. Davis and the same old
gang. They propose to run the
primaries, do the voting, above all,
do the counting and the returning.
control the Committee on Credentials,
and, in. short, pack the new County
Committee with themselves and
Others of their kidney, taking very
rood care that not only all real re
form influences, but still more
especially the friends of Dennis Nc
Laughlin shall not have a chance to
say a word in opposition to the will OF
the Boss.
That is just what there is in the
Davis outon reorganization scheme
to date-nothing more and nothing
less. 1t is a scheme to bamboozle the
public and sturn down Denny"

airy stock, as was also her mother,
whose grandfather, Gen. Geurant, was
prominent in the war for freedom. Mrs.
Hutchinson is tall and we'll rounded, has
very light brown hair, blue-gray eyes,
fair complexion and a pleasant smile
which reveals white and regular teeth.
She has two pretty little children and
three charming stepdaughters.
Another interesting Texas woman is
the wife of Hon. George c. Pendleton, of
Bolton. She was Miss Helen Embree,
born in Kentucky, where her ancestors
on both sides were early settlers. Her
parents removed to Texas when she
was two years old, and there she grew
up, married and has lived most of the
time since. She is tall, slight, rather
delicate-looking woman, with dark hair
and eyes, and very quiet and retiring.
She has four daughters and a son.
When man comes from Salt Lake it
is taken for granted that he is Nor
mon, and the question is asked, Where
are the rest of his wivesw The new
representative from Utah, Judge
Joseph L. Rawlins, is not a Mormon,
and has only one wife, black-haired
and brown-eyed little woman, who was
Miss Julia A. Davis. She was born in
Wales, and came to this country when
little child with her parents. Mrs.
Rawlins is rattle. quiet and domestic,
devoted to her family. She has three
girls and two boys, all under fourteen
years of age.

to enter the home, her bankers is the
place for them; in the house she busys
herself with domestic affairs, and every
piece of the elegant furniture seems to
be part and parcel of Its owner. The
farm yard, the buildings, everything
about the place in fact, is model of
cleanliness and order, and Mrs. Laflin's
farm is often quoted as the highest ex-
ample of completeness in New York
state. No hungry one has ever been
turned away from Latin castle, and
many a worthy deed has been done
there to some poor unfortunate that the
world will never know of.
Despite her riches and happiness
Mrs. Latin is partially crippled, having
been thrown from railway train ten
years ago while alightlng, and sustained
a compound fracture of the left ankle.
For many months she was compelled to
lay in bed, aud when at last she was
able to get about, it was only with
the aid of crutch. The rail-
way company offered to pay her
$4,000 for their negligence, but
not knowing the ultimate result of her
Injury she declined to accept what
might be an extravaganza amo unit, but
had the company file bond to pay
her S25 a week so long as she had to
carry the crutch. Time proved that
she would be cripple for life, and to
this day she has to use the crutch,
happier by far than many whose cares
are much less than hers, and whose
hearts have never been saddened by
untold sorrows.

win Is of average height, has a good
Inquire and graceful carriage, curly brown
hair, brown eyes and fair complexion.
No photograph can do justice to the
ever-varying expression of the face,
which in repose seems sad, but changes
the moment she speaks. She has one
child, a pretty little boy.
The wife Of Hon. Champ Clark, of
Bowling Green, Mo-, is tall and stately
brunette, with profusion of jet black
Iashes, shading large hazel eyes, and
Genevieve Bennett, born in Galloway
county, Mo. Both parents belonged to
good old Kentucky families. Her
mother was Miss McAfee and her
fathers mother one of three handsome
Davis sisters who were captuted when
.young by band of Indians, who burned
The blockhOuse III which the women and
children of the neighborhood had taken
refuge, the men all being absent. and
none escaped alive save these little
girls, their mother and an old negro
woman. The last two crept away after
the Indians had departed with the chill

their parents, to grow up, marry and
become the mothers of noted Kentucky
men. such as James B. McCreary, eX-

A NOVEL OCCUPATION.
Miss Wheelock Makes Living by
Teaching Whist.

Teaching people to play whist IS
certainly novel sort of profession by
which to gain livelihood, yet Miss
Kate Irwin Wheelock, plucky Wis
consin woman, has followed that very
calling for eight years and apparently
does very we'll at it. She is little
woman, with pale face, quiet manners
and soft voice and at first sight seems
of the nervous and shrinking type of
femininlty, but a few moments study
of her countenance during a converse
ton will disclose the characteristics of
a determined and dominant woman,
and the vivacity and snap of her con-
versation soon convince an auditor of
her self-reliance and energy.
Miss Wheelock says her novel profess
sion was forced upon her by circum-
stances which she could not control.
She is native of Green Bay, but re-
moved to Milwaukee 4 good many years
ago and took position as clerk in q
big Store. She did not like the life of
mere drudgery imposed by such a
position and soon broke its thraldom to
go West and pre-empt land claim in
Dakota. Returning from that ad-
venturous life about eight years ago,
she settled down in Milwaukee as a

to Become One of America's
Richest Women-Her Real Es-
tate Speculations, Almost With

Harvest-Generou to q Fault.
Special Arti Gle for the Globe.
1t is a somewhat extraordinary fact
that two of Americas shreWdest and
wealtniest financlers are women. To
these two members of the gentler sex
railway magnates bow in humble
homage. the astute banker is sincerely
respectful, and the poor man looks upon
them with awe and admiration. The
names of these wIelders of fortunes and
financial destinieS are Mrs. Hetty Green
and Mrs. Alice Latin. Strange to
say, both are residents of the
Empire state, the former living
in New York city ana the latter at Nj
agara Falls. Mrs. Greern is by far the
richer of the two, her wealth being
placed at 100000, while Mrs. Lafltn's
is about one-siXth less. Between these
two ladies there is as much difference as
between day ahdnight, Mrs. Green being
woman of magnificent physical pro-
portions, queenIy in her bearing, but
lamentably slouchy in her personal ap-
pearance. With all her wealth she de-
MES herself the veriest privileges of
life and grasps at the almighty dollar tbe
it silver or paper with misery greed.
Mrs. Latin, on tie other hand, is small
of stature, one of the gentlest of fe-
males of Gods creation, and a thorough
believer in living we'll and comfortably,
without display or wanton extrava-
ganee. A pen picture of this wondrous
woman cannot fail to be interesting.
OF slender, supple build, she is scarcely
five feet high. but within that frame there
lies an indomitable will. warm heart
for the just and trne and a bitter hatred
for the enemy, that is as dangerous as:
the dynamite cartridge. Her face is a
study for an artist. Small, steel-
blue eyes. with penetrating glance,
tell on the instant whether she

level-headed, so perfectly healthy in
mind and body,So sympathetic and kind
hearted. She is of medium height,
rather plump, but not really what one
might call stout; has iron-gray hair,
brushed back from broad forehead,
and very winning smile.
Another agreeable Ohio woman is the
wife of Hon. George w. Hulick, of the
Sixth district. She was Miss Josephine
W. Harrison, of CINCINNATI; is of medium
height and slender figure, with dark
hair and eyes and pleasing expression.
She is very quiet and retiring in dis
position, devoted to her family and
friends, and cares little for general so
ciety. She has four sons and one
daughter.
Mrs. Julius GoIdizer, wife of one of
ChIcago's four representatives, was
Miss Clara Lemien, native of the
beautiful island of Rugen, in the Baltic
sea. She came when an infant with her
parents to Chicago, which has been her
home ever since. She is quiet and re.
firing in disposition. and devoted to her
husband ana three handsome children
The wife of Hon. Dennis Flynn,o of Ok
lahOma, is slender, misunderstanding
little woman, with brown hair and gray
eyes. She was Miss Addie NJ. Blanton,
native of Kansas. Mrs. Flynn, while
not strong enough for much social
dissipation, is an agreeable addition to
The official circle. She has a daughter
about twelve years old and a small baby
girl.
Mrs. Philip .. McCulloch, of Marian
ma, Ark, was Miss Laura Belle Mills, of
aiillersburg. Ky. Her father was
member of an old Virginia family.
Mrs. McCulloch is tail and slight, with
pale, refined face, dark hair and blue
eyes. She is well educated, artistic in
her tastes, and has quite a talent for
portrait painting. She has two small.
rair-haired children, a boy and girl.
Another slight. misunderstanding wom-
al is Mrs. McDearmOn, wife of Repre-
sentative j. G. McDearmon, of Trenton.
Tenn. She is a native of that state, and
was before her marriage Miss Rachel
Theodore McCulloch. She is tall, has
hazel eyes. dark hair sprinkled with
gray, and pale but expressive coante-
nance and pleasant manner.
The wife of Judge Thomas NJ. Pascha;,
OF CaStrOville, lex, was Miss FLORIDA
a. Mayes, born ut Memphis and brought
up at San Antonio, Tex, 10 which place
her parents removed when she was
small child. She is tritie below medi-
um height, rather plump aud has light
brown halr and gray eyes.
That III which she takes the most in
terest, after her family, - the cultiva-
ton of flowers and fruit. Lake Grove"
che PaSchal home near Castroyllle, has
several acres OF ground beautifully lai
out and under fine state OF cultivation.
Mrs. Joseph G. Hutcheson. OF Houston,
was Miss Bette Palmer, born i'll the
picturesque old town Which is still her
home. Her father, Judge Z. A. Palmer,
was Virginian of good old Revolution
