Virgins Won the Match.

"The late W. H. Virgins" remarked a
prominent hotel man to u reporter, though
always addressed as Judge was not u
lawyer. For over 20 years he was a clerk
in the fileroom of the house of representa-
tiyes. The judge prided himself very much
over gold watch hewon as the most pop
ular man for president which was voted
to him during the Garfield memorial fair,
held in the capital.
"The watch was given by western
watch manufacturing concern and was a
good one. 1t was put up to be balloted
for, the candidates being Sherman, Blaine,
Allison, Logan and half dozen others of
almost equal prominence. At that time
there was u newspaper correspondent here
by the name of Felix Crocraft The votes
were piling up rather rapidly for the vari
Gus candidates, when Crocraft, as joke,
cast a vote for Judge Virgins as the peo-
pies choice for president. Some friends
Joined in, and before the evening had
passed the Virgins vote was rather re-
spectacle. The humor of the thing caught
on, and in three nights Virgins led all the
others. Virgins had served under Mr..
Blaine when he was speaker of the house,
and Blaine himself cast some votes for
him. Some of the friends of the other
candidates thought it rather too serious a
matter to joke over and went to work with
a will to knock Judge Virgins out. This
aroused Billy Copeland of the Brooklyn
Eagle, Charley Fowler of the Boston TRAY
eller and some others who were strong
Virgins men, and the result of the contest
was that Virgins won out easily, and the
fair gained over $500 for the watch. -

his zeal. There are plenty of men weak
and worn ont, struggling with remorse
and fear, the natural outcome of habits
that brought incapacity; sense of lone
someness and feeling as if the best side
of life had been banished forever. Such
men should write to Thomas Slater, Box
sos, Kalamazoo, Mich. He will send free
by mail, in plain sealed envelope full
particulars about the method he used,

that Mr.. Slater used to cure himself of
the troubles that sap the strength and
vigor and also enlarged his organs to
natural size. The cure was so complete,
SO satisfying and such a wonderful change
from his former condition that he will
gladly tell others all about it, sending all
particulars. He figures that he doesn't
know of better way to show his appie-

WARY OF THE HUNTER
thousands of Ducks in Wisconsin
but They Fly Only at Nipbt

Have wild ducks become educated to
the stealth practiced by the hunters who
pursue them. to such an extent that
they remain in the open water until
darkness wells their flight?
This query is suggested by the state
ments of number of sportsmen who re-
turned to Milwaukee this week after q.
fruitless chase after game birds on the
kest-known hunting preserves in wis
consln. Full of pleasant authorization
carrying their guns and heavy amru-
milton cases in their hands with light
hearts, the Milwaukee nimrods departed
early in October for Fox Lake. Mar

Green Lake. Lake Mills, New Richmond.
Pewaukee, Stevens Point, Gills Land
ing, and other points in the State where
the ducks We're said to be numerous. but
during the past three days the majority
Of them have come back empty handed
and discouraged with the result of their
outing.
The ducks are educated to keep away
from the blinds and high grass said
Cne disgruntled Milwaukeean as he de-
posted his gun at the sportmens empo-
rum. and they remain in the open
water all day long feeding or playing un-
Ill it becomes too dark to see them. and
then they take fight for their resting
places in the marshes. which they leave
long before daybreak for their day re-
sorts. When q storm roughens the wa
ter the birds fly sky high, avoiding sus-
picious looking punches of grass and
reeds cunningly arranged by the hunt
ers 10 hide their boats and themselves
from the scrutinizing glances of the
wary canvasbacks and redheads, until
they reach some more secluded spot
where the water is smooth. A few years
ago it was an easy matter for a hunter
TO get ten or twenty birds before day
break. getting into blind on some fly
way and taking advantage of the morn
ing flight, repeating the performance in
the evening, when the ducks left the
open water for the marshes. but that is
all over now. and the birds only fly dur
ing the darkness of night.

NY mind but that the birds have become
educated. and have followed the direc-
tions of the old stagers TO keep high in

The heavy banks of fog that obscured
the vision of Milwaukeeans early yes
terday morning gave the pot hunters an
opportunity to slip up on the big tiocks
of ducks resting on Interior lakes. and

Mr.. Bartlett's Columbus may be sup
posed to be standing before the Spanish
sovereigns who sent him on his expedi-
ton, describing his voyage, but not ex-
ulting in his triumph. Rather is he
scornful of the men who pOoh-poohed
his scheme, who remain his enemies
now that he has proved the feasibility
thereof. In his left hand he carries
the chart on which the new regions
are marked off, and with his right he
makes a gesture of explanation which
does not exclude the idea of indigna
tion. The curl of his lip adds signifi
canoe to the gesture, and the way he
balances himself on his feet with head
thrown back enforces the same idea
of independence and scornfulness of de-
tractors. We do not know that Col
umbus ever took this position with re-
gard to his foes at court, but the artist
has the right to assume from what is
known regarding the Admiral that such
might have been his attitude and look.
We do know that the titles and
the rewards of his quest so enraged
the men of old family that his destruc-
tion was foregone conclusion. In the
scanned and anxious countenance there
seems a premonition of the sad results
to Columbus from the envy and jeal-
ousy that sprang into being at the first
news of his incredible success, followed
his successive voyages with increasing
L.

Indies, as if there We're something in

The Columbus was modelled by Mr..
Bartlett in Paris previous to his return
to America, and like the bronze door
with poppy borders in high relief and
a ngure in low relief he had the ad-
vantage of much expert criticism on
II abroad. Hitherto American sculptors
who have modelled for bronze in Paris
or Munich have had the casting done
on the other side; the Columbus in the
nfSt case, or one of the first cases
OF the contrary. Mr.. Bartlett has been
SO Well pleased by the monuments turn
ed out of late that he decided to send
the model home for casting. AS ii stood
IN the foundry the appearance of the
great bronze was SO satisfactory that
ms conclusion seemed justified; so far
as metal, absence Of marks revealing
joints, and solidity of casting are con-
cerned, nothing more was to be desired
1t may be questioned whether we do
not ais general thing make better
castings for large statues than the
foundrymen of Paris, who excel. how
ever. in small bronzes, those articles de
Parls which we see at great shops. One
reason for this, no doubt, is that there
IS more profit in these small bronzes
than in large monumental works. which
are often a loss to the foundry owing tn
some unforeseen expense not included
IN the contract, which the foundrvnan
must bear.
