NOT A pANeERous MAN
But he Extended an Invitation to a
Maine Man to Go to Texas.
From tho y,gbin,t1,, t,a,t

From the Washington Post
Mr.. Hucheson of Texas is a gentleman
with fierce gray mOustache ana mass
of curly gray hair, in whose innermost
nature slumbers the spirit of Cancellation,
though the ferocity of his general aspect
and the intensity of his purpose at times
make HIM appear a dangerous man. The
biographer upon whom, at some future
| day, shall devolye the task of giving a
correct impression of this remarkable
gentleman to posterity will have to eX-
erCise great care to disCriminate between
his bristllng appearance and his natural
kindness of heart. Yesterday he extended
! an invitation TO Mr.. Milliken sof Maine
to go to Texas in such a manner
as TO convey to the gallery an i'm
preston that he had serious
grievance against the gentleman from
Maine. He bent almost double behind
his desk, and shook his fist with so much
violence that those who were too far re-
moved to hear his words, fancied Mr..
MiIliken in danger Of personal injury. II
was during discussion on pension bill
Mr.. Milhken had interrupted to ask
question.
Now, Mr.. Chairman" exclaimed the
member from Texas, in reply to the gen
tleman from Maine, 81 will say that there
is nobody for whom | have kindlier

gentleman, Not only did his father 90 to
Texas, but his brother lives there"
"AIy cousin said Mr. Nlilhkcn.
i knew it was member Of the family
Mr.. HuchesOn went on. And here he
bent forward over his desk and shook his
Texas fist in Mr.. Millikens face, while
the gentleman from Maine sat drawn into
the smallest possible compass, looking up
at that Gargantuan weapon of assault.
And we have given him one of the fair
est flowers of the state, a woman Mr..
Hucheson continued, in a shrill voice, lin
whose veins the blood Of the Caesars
courses" This indiscriminate mixing Of
metaphors, this rash substitution Of
Italian for Texas blood in order to round
a period provoked laughter all over tho
House.
81 ain sorry that it was not myself in
stead of my cousin said Mr.. Milliken.
IF what the gentleman from Texas states
is correct
I'VE should be very much delighted to
welcome the gentleman, - said Mr.. Huche-
son, gallantly, still bending over his desk
and addressing Mr. .Millikens upturned
countenance, and while, | do not know
what the gcntleman's situation is and
whether he can accept the Offer ] will
say that II he will come down 20 Texas

welcome was extended by Mr.. Huches0n

the House, crOuching over his desk like
