leading candidates, Thomas j. Hender-
son and Henry Mayo, withdrew, and
the party united on Walter Reeves. He
defeated the democratic nominee for
congress, Capt. Gibbons, by 4,9s2 votes,
although at that time the district was
believed to have democratic major-
ity of 1000. In 1896 he was reelected by
a majority of 6,251, and in 1SoS he ran
against ex-Attorney General Maloney
and defeated him.
Mr.. Reeves has served in congress
with distinction. He was a member of
the committees on rivers and harbors
and patents. He was one of the mem
bers chosen by Speaker Reed TO confer
with the senate committee regarding
the river and harbor bill. Mr.. Reeves
efforts on that joint committee secured

complimented for securing this action
which enabled congress to move in

Mr.. Reeves has announced his candi'

declaring that he represents no fac
ton.
In 1876 Mr.. Reeves married Mariett;

Senator Gear is New York born. He

Who abandoned farm life and small

Of the nineteenth century and came
west to find room for their ambitions
and energy in which to work. Born in
1925, at Ithaca, he was IS when he made
his way to Burlington, Ia, taking all
the chances of travel of that time and
facing poverty for the reward which la
Dor might bring in the years to come.
He was a merchant in Burlington when
Chicago was a struggling village, be-
fore the Union Pacific was constructed,
when st. Louis was the commercial
mart of the west, when the Missouri
was to be the great navigable stream
of the middle country, when there was
not an operated railroad west of Ohio,
not a mile of telegraph line, nor any
means of transportation but steam
boat, stages or ones own feet.
Burlington was town of consider
able Importance at that time, having
wide trade and a class of merchants
noted for their progressive ideas. Sen
ator Gear, beginning with small capital,
increased his field of operations until
he was one of the best known merchants
in the state. He was shrewd in driving
bargain, paid great attention to de-
tails, worked necessarily, paid his bills
promptly and laid the foundation fol

Though lifelong liberal he is one OF

MODERN MEANING OF GUN.
The word Is More OFTEN Applied to
the Great Engines
of Death.

"The evolution of the word gun
forms an interesting study in up-to-
date etymoogy," remarked one of a
party of newspaper men, says the New
Orleans Times-Democrat. "A dozen or
so years ago we all understood gun to
mean fowling piece--a shotgun as dis
tinguished from rifle or n musket.
Heavy and light ordnance, in fact all
pieces of artillery, without regard to
size, were known as cannon. That, OF
course, was where people made an ef-
fort to speak English. Out in the
frontier the word gun was applied ex-
clusively to pistols.
Nowadays the nomenclature has
curiously changed. BY degrees the
good old word gun has become monop-
olized by the long, slim, murderous ma
chimes that constitute our modern ar
tillery. We speak of quick-fire guns,
eight-inch, ten-inch, twelve-inch guns,
and the word seems singularly apropos.
They are not cannon. Cannon imme-
diately suggests the big, numbering,
black-throated, smooth-bores of the
past. The word conjures up all sorts OF
curious antique pictures - swabbers
naked to the waist, motionless men
holding lighted matches, frigates
lashed together and firing into each
others ports, Sepoys bound to the
nuzz,e, neat geometric pyramids OF
sound shot in neat geometric forts, the
charge of the Light Brigade, and lots OF
other things too numerous to men

OF Interest to smokers.

The briar pipe is not made of briar-
wood at all. The word "briar' is a
corruption of the French word "bru-
1ere," meaning "heath," and the wood
ised is really that of the heather.
When these pipes were introduced into
his country the tradesmen found that
he French word was rather too diff
ult for the ordinary smoker TO get
'lold of, and they soon twisted IL into
he familiar briar, The supply Of this
wood from France is now almost ex-
iiausted, and is only found in any guam
,ity in the Alpes Maritimes.

he honorable nickname which he now
bears. He did not show an aptitude
hen for political life, nor did he make
my effort to enter it. He was repub-
lean as soon as the new party was or
,anized and uncompromising in his at
itude on the questions raised during
he civil war, but until 1863 he did not
olicit the votes of the people, and then
only to become the mayor of Burling-
on, a position which he filed with
.redit
When his term expired he retired
,gain to private life, from which he did
lot emerge until 1872, when party ex-
gencies demanded his election to the
legislature, and he was sent to the
rouse. In 1874 he was elected speaker
If the house, and again in 1876 the same
)ffice was given him. His first term as
peaker came at the end of the famous
eadlock in the grange Legislature of
'S74. From the legislature he passed to
he governors chair, where he served
our years. Retiring from the govern
IRIS chair, he became a private citizen
,gain until 1886, when he was elected to
engress and reelected in 1888, practi-
ally without opposition.
The landslide against the republican
,arty in 1890 defeated him for reelec-
ion to congress with four other con-
,ressmen of the state, but he served as
assistant secretary of the treasury for
ONE time. In 1892 his party again re-
urned him to congress, and in January,
s94, he was elected to the United States
enate as the junior senator from Iowa.
lis present term will end March 3, 1901.
Ie was conspicuous in congress for his
work. on the committee on ways and
neans, where he had charge of the

eajizing $117, 100000 from them instead

handed Brookin the razor and replied:
"Here, take this, and l assure you that
with pleasure it is given.'
When Maj. Brookin died, several
years later, in Petersburg, Va, the
razor was left to his grandson anc
namesake, Col. Vivian Brooliin Holmes,
who has relatives in Linneus and Cen
tralia, Mo. The blade, after the death
Of Holmes, passed into the ownership
of Mrs. Maus, who still retains the in
