A Passage at Arms.

Hon. Chanp. Clark, the witty Mis-

Saturday Evening Post long article
on 1.-The Use of Wit. Humor and

issue OF that publication. He relates
the following passage at arms that
took place in the American congress
between two distinguished Irish-Amer-
lean members that will interest all
lovers of parliamentary repartee:

Virginia told one of the finest and most

qualifications for public speaking Mr..
Cochran has Il voice (which would have

and Cochran locked horns on con-
tested election case and Cockran's

for which Cochran assaulted him bit

heaviest artillery until everybody with

"O'Ferrall began his reply as fol-

from New York remind me of the story
or an old colored man down in Vir-
ginla who was riding mule and who
was caught in a violent thunder storm
while passing through dense forest.

flashes of lightning which occasionally
