BIGGEST HEAD IN CONGRESS.

but Cockran's which Is not so general
ly known, is regarded by the Philadel-
phia Record as equally extraordinary.
Cochran has the biggest head In either
house Of congress. 1t is the longest,
the broadcast, the thickest. His hair Is
long and thick, his eyes are large,
bright and %protruding, his eyebrows
large and heavy, his mouth shaded
with a mustache and his chin with a
little tuft Of beard. His head is set on
a short, thick neck, between shoulders
so broad and over a chest 80 deep as
to be disproportionate with his legs
and arms. 1t is the head, neck and
chest Of one type of orator, 50 that If
you had not heard him say a word you
would think be was On eloquent speak
er. When he is speaking a resem-
trance to the lion, which everyone
thinks Of at first sight, is heightened by
the way he losses his hair and shows
his teeth and strides up and down the
aisle. He has the greatest voice In
either house of congress. It Is the loud
est, strongest and it would be the most
musical if he did not 50 soon become
hoarse with excitement. It fills the
hall of the house so that the rafters
seem to vibrate aud carries for the mo-
ment as with the rush Of a cavalry
charge everything and everybody be-
fore 1t. His opponents can hardly re-
frain from joining in the applause
which seems to his supporters 4 faint
way of expressing the enthusiasm
which he has stirred up within them.
AT such moments You realize the pow
err which the great Irish orators had
over their constituents, for you feel
that If Cochran could demand imne-
diate action three-fOurths of his hearers
would do whatever he wanted them to
do. After they have spoken Reed is
one Of the first to congratulate Cochran
as Cochran is one Of the first to con-
graduate Reed, and rs soon as they
can get away they will 80 out In the
speakers lobby behind the house to
smoke together, or down to the house
restaurant to lunch together, OF, as on
last Saturday, after they had been fenc-
ing in the debate, they will leave the
capitol and walk down Pennsylvania
avenue arm in arm, as happy as two
bows just out Of school.

1t has been the custom in ill-behaved
communities in this and other countries
for some of the decent people to give pub
lie expression to regretful excuses for mi s.
conduct that has attracted more than an
ordinary amount of attention. An interest
ing departure from that established mode
of procedure is the action OF the board of
county commissioners of Brooks county,
Georgia, within whose jurisdiction occurred
the so-called race war centering at Quit
man. In their official statement the COM
missioners say that several murders have
recently been perpetrated In our county
and three negroes shot down without
provocation as far as we can ascertain and
other innocent negro men and women were
abused and submitted to nameless indigni-
ties" The commissioners conclude their
pronunciamento by saying that We de-
plore and most severely condemn the spirit
Of lawlessness that seems to pervade our
county; that we feel that these crimes have
left a blot on the fair name Of our county;
to put down these crimes and we appeal to
the courts to see that these criminals are
brought to trial and have Justice meted out
to them" Now if the law-abiding citizens
OF Brooks county will only get together
and put IN effect the apparently earnest
recommendations Of the commissioners. the
exceedingly tough reputation which Brooks
county at present possesses may soon be
among the things that have been.

Another indictment against overhead
wires was returned last night at Albany.
In recent times many great CONGREGATIONS
became great because electric light, tele-
phone. telegraph and trolley wires in the
vicinity of the blaze offered serious OBJ
struction to the firemen. This was con-
spicuously SO in Boston when the fremont
Temple was last destroyed, and now the
ruins of the Delavan House at Albany
offer evidence of serious damage wrought
because of interfering wires. 1t would be
but idle guessing to predict the arrival of
that time when the public generally will
reach the conclusion that overhead wires
are dangerous and expensive nuisances.
In this city the practice of stringing wires
on poles has been much discouraged and
there is hope that within a few years I'M
foreground provision will be made for the
accommodation of the metal that now dis
