think every man who had chance
to know him must have felt affection
for him. Sam, his coachman, used to
say: "The finest Dimmycrat I ever
knew. I'm a Republican," After the
funeral he said: II could hardly drive
for the tears runnin' down me face,
The finest man I ever knew, Dimmy-
crat or Republican,"
The atmosphere Of greatneSs-that
subtle emanation of real power-was
always present. always felt, more so
than in the case of any man I ever
met. So often it evaporates when
once YOU have seen enough to disasso-
ciate the man from the name. But
there was nothing gruff >or severe
about this pleasant, simple,mannered,
large framed man, comfortably seat
ed by his library fireplace. saying
little, but listening carefully, sympa-
thetically in fact, to all that was being
said, with a ready smile for whatever
might be amusing, a kindly solicitude
for the comfort Of your seat and a
grace carefulneSs in the selection of
your cigar. "Well, I guess there's no
law against our smoking,' was his
frequent phrase. He seemed, as a
friend remarked the other day, "just
as much interested in giving me a
good time as I was in trying to en-
tertain him. But no one, not even
the most intimate. thought Of being
familiar with him. He always insisted
upon carrying his gun case himself
when making the annual pilgrimage;
but he also insisted upon due respect
to the high Office he had held. Some
of the numerous invitations to address
quasi-nmportant gatherings annoyed
him: "They've got nerve to expect
former president to attend their
show" He did not say "me.' but

His voice in conversation was lit
tie higher than one would expect for
such large man; it was undoubtedly
what foreigners would call an Ameri
can voice, somewhat nasal, though not
unpleasant, and with something in it
that reminded me Of the way I sup
posed Lincoln's s voice sounded. When
he referred to his old friends and as
sociates there was tenderness in it as
he pronounced their names-"Joe'
Jefferson or "Tom' Bayard, and
others, less known to fame, but equal
ly dear to him. The world only heard
of the famous ones, but it never oc-
Cured to him to arrange his friend
ships on any basis but the real one
or that his more obscure chums were
not just as interesting to quote and
tell about.
Callers who undertook to inform
him to his face that he had been a
great president made him exceedingly
miserable, Though he did not mind
reading about it when they were not
around), but if you told him you saw
his boy Richard make a good catch
playing ball out on the lawn as you
came in, his whole face lighted up
with his wonderful smile. His atti-
tude toward children was not the
smiling condescension which many Of
the "Olympians' adopt, and which
children late; he treated them with
that flattering earnestness which chill
dren like. "Some Of the other gen.
tlemen here this afternoon left this
bat behind them,' he would say to
his boy. One day these two were seen
walking home together in the rain.
Richard was holding the umbrella.
Rather than let the boy see that he
could not hold it high enough the ex-
president walked all the way down
Bayard lane with his head and
shoulders bent low.
One day on the train from New
York he became very much concerned
over a little girl who seemed to be
travelling alone. Finally he had to
60 and ask her about it. She said it
was all right, she was to be met by her
father at New Brunswick. But when
that station was finally reached the
former president, without saying any
thing to the rest of the party, quietly
stole out to the rear door and watched
until he saw the child safe in her
fathers arms; then he returned to
the group he had left and went on
with the conversation as if nothing
had happened.
The Democratic mode Of his pri-
vate life is sometimes spoken Of as
if an ideal to which he consciously
adhered. With him it was a good
deal more than a well-followed creed !;
it was spontaneous expression Of his
personality, due to his inherent hon
esty: He liked simple things because
he was simple. He was Of the soil.
He had but few forms, though these
he observed strictly and expected 9th
ers to observe them. The inevitable
vanities and artificialities Of highly
organized stage of society were not
wrong. but disbasteful to him. He
felt their incongru;tv with him. In
short. he had humoc-nnt the chirp-

The denomination of Governor
Charles S. Deneen was placed beyond
doubt by returns which came In last
night. Practically all of Mr.. Yates
supporters have given up.
Deneen's majority, which was 1851
in Cook county, was swelled by addi.
lions from the downstate district
where Yates was supposed to be the
stronger.
Deneen has carried 62 out of the
102 counties. He has carried % out
of the 35 Chicago wards. His victory
over the former governor is expressed
better in this fashion than 1t is in the
total figures.

1t is figured that the six precincts

offset the difference between the votes
as shown and the two absent precincts

This is in progress and will probably
