WIND PLAYS FRANKS
WITH EASTER tide

Anybody who happened to see a little
episode on the corner of First avenue
and Twentieth street a few days ago can
testify that there is as much truth now
adays in the saying that the wind
bloweth where 1t listeth' as there was IN
Biblical times; for everybody knows that
while the wind may blow where 1t
'Iisteth" occasionally these tempestuous
March days, it '1isteth" considerably
around the corner of the Brown-Marx
building. In fact just at this particular
point 1t seems to blow four ways from
Sunday all In heap, like-"the blow that
killed father'-all at once-just like that!
This particular blow had to do with
a new spring lid" a dusky belle Of
"darktown," and gallant Knight of the

rescuer.
Pedestrians, many in number, sailed

And afterwards Hepburn stepped
across to the Democratic side, shook
the old mans hand and said in an un.
dertone, On it; I'll do it."
He then told how, when five years
old, he had been presented with toy
board, which was checked over with
different objects, some of them good
and some of them bad One of these
objects was the capitol of the United
States, and his mother had told him,
he said. that II he would be good and
would live correct life, he might
some day hope to sit in the seat Of
the big man who was pictured there.
"She never told me a lie, and
knew that what she said was true.
knew that l would some day occupy
the seat of that big man, and God
helping me, got there yesterday" re-
ferring to the fact that for time he
had occupied the seat of the presid-
ing officer.
Referring to the fact that he had
been confederate soldier, Col Cor
don said: Il fought and bled, but

quently."
He then told of some of his exploits
in the war and how he had captured
Gen. Coburn Of Indiana and Gen.
Shafter, he said, had fired at him five
different times during the confederate
charge without hitting him. He said
that whenever the union and confed-
crate soldiers met they were always
good friends Asserting that he loved
the negro, he said he wanted the
Mason and Dixon line obliterated from
the map of the United States because
he didn't want any more strife.
"a few blab.mouthed people down
our way talk differently" he said, but
they are not worth cussing; they are
not worth wasting invectives upon"
Paying a tribute to soldiers of both
the north and south, Col. Gordon said:
you may as well try to storm
the heights of heaven and pluck the
diadem from Jehovah's crown, as to
take away from either of them the
glory of the records of the two men
who stood under the tree at Appomat-
tox and brought the war to close.
"This is the finest body of men that
/ ever associated with" he continued,
speaking of the senate itself, and he
beamed upon his colleagues.
