DISTINGUISHED LEADER AND STATES.
MAN PASSES AWAY.

Ex-Congressman John M. Langston Of
Virginia, died at $3.50 last Monday even.
ing in Washington. D. c., at the age ol
GS. He was born slave in 1929; Re was
emancipated when he was six years old
and educated at Oberlin College, where
lie graduated from the theological depart.
lnent in 1854. He studied law aud prac
ticed the choice Of his profession until go.
He was elected to several offices in Ohio,
and had the distinction Of being the first
man Of hisraee tas l5.ssted States to be
elected to an office by the popular vote Of
the people. He was for seven years Pro-
fessor of Law at Howard University; be
was U. 5. Minister and Consul General to
Hayti for eight years. On his return to
this country he became president Of the
Normal and Collegiate Institute of Vir-
ginia. He was elected to the tifty-tirst
congress, and was compelled to contest for
his seat. Mr.. Langston might be consid-
cred tho leader of bis race
He was one Of the leaders In his
party, and those that attended the Ma
tional Republican convention in 1883 will
never forget the graceful speech he made
in seconding the nomination Of John
Sherman for president. It has been de-
scribed as one of the brilliant features of
that great gathering, and he was not sur.
passed by any of those great orators. He
vas a slave, a professor, q statesman, and
an orator. We have the greatest respect
for the memory OF such a man. We will
say to young men OF today, live the life
that Mr.. Lsngston did, having purpose
in view.

At TWILIGHT.

Alone in the dusk Of the evening
When the sun flushed rosy red
With fiery tints the landscape
Then gently sinks over head;
Memory paints picture
A scene l fain would forget
But one that treacherous heart
says
Remember though with regret. :"
IT'S but a simple picture H..
A man and maiden fair
Plighting their vows to each other
Then why is this dark despair?
The moon smiled down on their
rapture
The flowers breathed fragrance
sweet
But the man was false and the hear
~-> 'rs a5fSL.g,
He trampled beneath his feet.
Years passed, the maiden welded
And children came into the home
And all is we'll until evening
When sometims the pictures will
come
For memory's a faithful artist
And vividly paints all the past
Scene after scene in succession
Until all Of life's landmarks are
past.
