Congressman James ID. Richardson of
Tennessee, who succeeds young Mr.. Bal
ley of Texas as leader Of the Democratic
minority in the House of Representatives,
Is a tall, slight man of SO, looking ten
years younger, with a broad, Southern
pronunciation. As member Of the old
Democratic majority it was frequently
Mr.. Richardson's duty to preside over
the House, especially when it was sitting
as the committee of the whole. Mr.. Rich
ardson gave general satisfaction to both
sides of the House. There is quality
which has been famous in successive gen.
erations Of Southerners which Is known
as Southern courtesy. Mr.. Richardson
possesses this quality, and keeps it in in
conspicuous but graceful display. Mr..
Richardson, who is Confederate vet
eran, is a lawyer by profession.

The Indian conjurers are not very

Their work with serpents Is extremely

Mostly Visitors to Town.


A very small percentage of the visitors
In the galleries of Congress are Washing
tonians. Congress is an old story to the
people of the capital. 1t is a tale often
repeated. There is nothing awe-inspiring
about days doings at the Capitol to
man who has lived within sight Of the
dome of the Capital all, or nearly all, of
his life. Men and women who come to
Washington to live pay one or two visits
to the galleries Of Congress when first
they arrive here, and let 1t go at that.
It is che strangers, the casual visitors in
the city, who flock to the galleries of
Congress, and to many of these such Wis
it's are very great events, indeed, to be
told about again and again when they
get back to their homes. Not few of
the strangers in the galleries look as il
they feel themselves to be participating
in proceedings Of very solemn and up
lifting character; and that they regard
the gentlemen below them on the floor

which they study the great men.

A lady who had seen much of the
world was asked on one occasion why
plain girls often get married sooner
than handsome ones. To which she re-
piled that 1t was owing mainly to the
tact Of the plain girls and the vanity
and want Of tact on the part of men.

The John M. Smyth Co. Have No
Agents.

The well-merited popularity of the
great mail order establishment of the
John M. Smyth Co. of Chicago seems to
have induced INSCRIPTIONS parties to 60
through the country and falsely represent
themselves as sales agents for this house.
BY thus representing themselves they
have succeeded in imposing upon many
by selling goods and taking cash and
notes from victims who actually believed
they were purchasing goods from the
representatives of the firm direct. The
John NJ. Smyth Co. have no agents and
denounce as frauds all parties travelling
through the country and claiming to rep
resent the firm. The public should be on
