strangely appareled figure near the
post office. Denis lowered head and
shoulders above most of them, and
his strong, beardless face was in
closed by a shock of curling, yellow
brown hair which had seen little OF
brush and comb, save his fingers and
the thorn of his native Fermanagh
thickets. Tt was almost as if some
wild god of the ancients We're stand

the seething modern life around him.
Presently there was slight ripple
in the stream, and some of the eddies
wavered under the momentary i'm
pulse of curiosity. A hungry woman
had flched an apple from stand.
and policeman was dragging her
along the sidewalk. But only few
steps, then massive figure hurled
itself through the crowd like a cata-
putt, and strong grasp fell upon
the policeman's shoulder and sent
him whirling out toward the middle
of the street, twisting and turning
and trying in vain to grasp some
thing for support, until at last he
fell prone upon the pavement. And
after him roared an angry: "Ic
graceless omadhoun Let that tacha

Back on the sidewalk Dennis was
i bending over the crouching, sobbing
woman.
.Did the spalpeen hurt yez, ma

The crowd snickered a little at the
gentleness applied to the wretched
barefoot creature on the sidewalk,
but their mirth was quickly checked
by the blazing face which was turned
! toward them.

Popoca-Tepetl.

For many years our school geogra-
phies have given the supposed pronnn-
citation of the name Popocatepetl as
the name of the famous volcano OF
Mexico has been spelled. Children
have been taught that the last sylla-
BILE was pronounced as though it were
spelled pei and they have pro-
nounced the whole name with the ac-
cent on the ''cat." According to j. p.
uoeck & Co.. of the City of Mexico.
who have written to the board on geo
graphic names, Washington, in refer
ence to the pronunciation of the name,
the old usage encouraged by the geog-
raphies is incorrect. The name con-
sists of two words. The first word,
Popoca, is accented on the second syl-
liable, pc. The second word, tepetl, is
accented on the first syllable and is
pronounced as though it were spelled
.taypel." The name of the volcano is
thus pronounced very differently from
the common usage in this country. In
the last report of the board on geo.
graphic names the spelling Popoca-
tepetl has been authorized.-N.Y y. Sun.

REV. w. F. DUNAwAY, D. d.

The subject of this sketch is the
candidate from this legislative dis
trict nominated by the Democratic
party. He will have no opposition
as the Republicans have decided not
to put up candidate against him.
Rev. Wayland F. Dunaway, D. D.,
is a native of Lancaster county,
having been born here December
26tb, 184l. he received az academic
education here before going to Co.
lumbian College. After serving as
deputy county clerk for year or so
he entered upon the study of law at
the University of Virginia. From
there he left to join the Confederate
army as sergeant in the 47th Va.
Regiment, later being promoted by
stages to that of first lieutenant and
adjutant. Still later he won captain g
stripes, and at the time of his capture
on The retreat from Gettysburg he
was assistant acknowledgement. He
was paroled just few days before
Gen. Lees surrender.
After the war he practiced law
Virginia citizen. (Irvington, Va.) 1891-1921, 1901-05-17

and taught school until 1S7 Il, when be
entered the Baptist ministry. He has
served churches In his native county
and the counties of Loudoun and
Fauquier, having returned only a
few months ago from Middleburg
to the churches in upper Lancaster,
to which he was called upon the
death of Rey. w. A. Street.
In 1867 he was Democratic can
didate for the Constitutional Con-
vention. but was defeated because of
the disfraDchisement of ex-Confed-
crates and Southern sympathizers.
Mr.. Dunaway is good speaker
and reasoner, and a man who will
stand up to his convictions. His
selection as member to the con-
stitutional convention appears to
give entire satisfaction to the citizens
of both counties, and his election is
merely a matter of majority.
Although pastor of several Baptist
churches, the members appear per-
fectly willing to release him for
few weeks or months, as the case
may be, believing that his work in
the convention will be for the good
of coming generations.

HON. CLAUDE A. SWANSON.

tRschmond Corr. NorJolk Landmarl.)
Now what shall say of Claude A..
Swanson? OF all men running, he
could most aptly be described as the
"self-made man." Yet, he does not
use this as an argument to try and
secure votes. Swanson had some early
struggles in life, for his people, while
of the best of Virginia stock, were not
wealthy. He was ambitious and be-
came lawyer. He worked hard
in order that he might save up
money that would enable him to Sc
cure college education. He was a
particularly bright boy. When a
youth he was recognized as strong
debator. At Randolph-Macon Col
lege teachers of long experience pre-
dicted that he would some day be-
come famous as a statesman. L have
often heard the late "Dick" Beirne
say that he picked Swanson out
as one OF the most promising young
men at college. Beirne lived at Ash
land then and the two became fast
friends. When Beirne ran for Gov
ernor, young Swanson, who had just
begun the practice of law, at Chat
ham, seconded his nomination in a
speech that aroused Beirne's friends
to the highest pitch of enthusiasm.
Mr.. Swanson succeeded we'll as a
lawyer. But he was too fond of pol
itics to remain in active practice of
his profession. He could not remain
out of any canvass in which his
party's succuss was involved. He
went about making stump speeches.
First he canvassed his county:
next, he was called upon to go all
over the Fifth District. His ability
as an orator and debator soon attract
ed the attention of the big leaders,
and he was made canvasser at large.
His people decided to send him to
Congress, and there they have kept
him. He has made reputation of
which any man should be proud.
He now holds the high position of
member of the great Committee on
Ways and Means.
Swanson is one of the best hand
shakers in Virginia. When out on
courtgreens the people crowd about
him.
There is q magnetism about him
that draws people unto him. One
of the reasons for this great popular
ity is that he is true man and will
stick by his friends through "thick
and thin" When he makes prom
ise it can be relied upon that he will
carry it out. He is one of those men
who, if some one has aided him in
any of his political aspirations would
"throw MP his job" before he would
decline TO assist that friend.
Mrs. Swanson is lady that would,
like Mrs. Echols, preside over the
Executive Mansion with the grace of
queen.
