A Great Irish Athlete.

Flanagan, the celebrated Irish cham
pion hammer thrower, has arrived in
New oYrk to join the Athletic club and
replace Jim Mitchell, whose record
with the hammer was 145 feet.
AS an athlete, Flanagan is a man Ct
phenomenal ability. He has thrown the
16-pound hammer lat feet, from nine
foot circle; and, with unlimited run and
follow, he is credited with, singing the
same missile the astonishing distance
of 156 feet 4 inches, performances which
stamp him as being nothing less than
human catapault. In other depart
ments of weight-throwing he is almost
as prominent, and as a sprinter and
jumper, his accomplishments entitle him
to rank among the foremost athletes of
the present day.
Both in facial and physical appear
ance Flanagan bears striking resem-
blance to Sandow, the French athlete.
He stands feet 9h inches without
his shoes, and has a chest measurement
Of 40 inches, which he can easily ex-
:pand to. 45 inches. His other dimen-
sions are: Calf. 16 inches; thigh, q
inches; hips, 2sN inches; waist, 80
inches; neck, 16h inches, and biceps,
16x inches. This rare combination Of
bone and sinew tips the beam at 1874
pounds. 90 : = ..ss.s. So
Flanagan first saw the light in De-
scember, 1867; at the ancient town Of
Kilmallock, county Limerick, ireland,
and received his education at the Col

early boyhood he eVinced exceptional In

upon a case night and day, at all times,
and at all places, SO as to appear OBJ
nvious Of everything about him, even
to the extent of failing to recognize his
most intimate friends when he met
them. Mr.. Clinton thinks that in re-
spect Of the power Of concentration on
the business in hand O'Conor never had
peer at the New York bar. AS law
yer--a faithful, honorable, pure, able
and profound lawyer-Charles O'Conor
had no superior in the United States.
Although Van Buren, was distin-
guished for certain kind of readiness.
GOODNESS and self possession, yet in cal
culation and foresight O'Conor was by
far his superior. Years after the trial Of
the Forrest divorce case, O'Conor, speak
ing of it to the author of this book,
averred that, when he rested the case,
he had no apprehensions that the trial
would come to an abrupt termination.
He said that he knew Van Buren so
we'll that he had no doubt he would pro-
ceed with the trial and put his wit
nesses on the stand. He relied on the
publicity of the trial to develop testi-
mony on his side sufficient to enable
him to win the case, and his foresight
was more than justified.
It seems that sometimes Ogden Hoff-
man and Charles O'Conor were asso-
ciates in the trial Of important cases.
Mr.. Clinton says that it would have been
difficult to select from the New York
bar two moro efficient lawyers in the
conduct of q case. Hoffman, with all
his talent, superlative eloquence, his de-
votion to his cause, and his fidelity to
the interests of his clients, was not fond
of labor. 1t was for him a delight to
have an associate like O'COnor, pos-
sessed as the latter was by singular
capacity and tondness for work. AS two
counsel on each side usually addressed
the jury in cases of any considerable
magnitude, nothing could suit Hoffman
better than to have O'Conor. address
the jury first, and analyze the testimony
and, in all needed details. present the
case fully. This arrangement permitted
Hoffman to limit himself to the general
features of the case; so that, from the
time he began until he closed, the jury
and all present were spellbound with an
unbroken flow of the most enchanting
oratory every listened to in a court of
justice. We are assured that the exqGi-
site melody of Hoffman's voice can only
be conceived by those who heard it. His
voice, in truth, presented strong con-
trast to that of O'Conor, which was oc-
casionally hkened by 5his legal oppo-
nenta to the srowl of a hyena.

"Hinkey Dink, /" Of Chicago.

The real "Hinky Dink,'' the newly
elected alderman, is nothing whatever
like the imaginary. A more inoffensive
personality can scarcely be found in
Chicago. He is as modest and retiring
as a country parson. He will attract
the least attention of any member Of the
city council by his appearance. He
isn't big enough to half fill an alder
mans chair and could hide behind the
desk which the city has waiting for
him. He really stands chance of be-
ing overlooked by Mayor Harrison some
night, says the Times-Herald. The First
ward boss is 81 years old and has gray
mixed with the blonde hairs that cover
his head. He stands five feet four
inches, not high enough to reach the
shoulders of his. worthy colleague and
friend, "Bathhouse" Coughlin. When he
is feshy he Is as heavy as ITO pounds.
He parts his hair almost in the middle
and wears little blonde mustache, that
effectually conceals a short upper lip.
His clothes are always quiet and in
good taste, and he is rarely guilty Of
wearing a collar that is not as nearly
spotless as the laundry can make it.
One fairly good diamond stud adorns
his neckscarf, and this, with plain
gold ring constitute his stock Of jew
elry. When he gets out with the Cook
County Marching club he puts on
silk hats that is almost load for him
to carry.
When "Hinky" struck out for himself
he took possession Of the southeast cor
ner of Madison and Dearborn streets
and sold papers. While he wasn't busy
with the papers he was shining shoes.
The newspaper business suited him best.
however, and he gave it the most at
tention. He got the agency for Peck's
Sun when that publication was at the
height of its fame, and soon boosted it's
circulation in Chicago away up into the
thousands. He saved his money and
steadily prespered until he began to
think It was time for him to look
elsewhere for an opening. He went out
to Leadville. armed with letters Of rec
ommendation from some Of the best
business men in Chicago and was s6,cn
in charge of the circulation department
Of the Lake County Reveille. q PAPER
published in Leadville. He says he is
worth $4,000. the bulk Of his wealth be-
ing In residence property on the West
Side.
He has four barkeepers busy ringing
two cash registers. and as many portcrs
busy keeping the place clean. "A man
