Father lost no time in interviewing
Ephraim, who admitted his pecula-
tions, repaid as much as he could and
was discharged.
Mrs. Butcher was a cook of more
than local renown, and was always
called upon to officiate in the kitchen
for the big social events in this vi
entity. A son of the family, Albert,
now lives at Memphis and is man
of some means. He paid visit to
Rock Island a few years ago and
renewed old acquaintances.
About 1852, when we were living
on Second avenue about opposite
where McCabe's store now is, father
was taken i'll. One day he sent me
to Ainsworth & Lynde's store to bor-
row a Boston paper. In this paper
he CHANGED to see the advertisement
of a man whom he had once loaned
$40. Father directed me to write TO
this man, which l did, recalling the
circumstances of the loan and saying
father was in need of the money. By
return mail there came a draft for
$50 and letter expressing the graf
itude of the sender for a kindness
done him years before when he was
in financial straits.

formed men on tariff affairs in the
country His work for the tariff barons
made that essential. 1t is said that he
has made an exhaustive study of
schedules, rates and duties, differential,
ad valorem, and otherwise. and he is
one of the foremost parliamentarians
of the house.
| Close to House Bosses.
| With such men as Speaker Joseph G..
Cannon, Congressman Serene E. Payne,
! Senator Stephen B. Elkins of West
| Virginia, Senator Nelson w. Aldrich
of Rhode Island, Representative Ma
than w Hale of Tennessee, Senator
| Cabot Lodge of Massachusetts, and
Senator w. Murray Crane of the same
state, Mr.. Dalzell has stood for every
! high tariff passed by congress. He sup
ported the Payne-Aldrich bill at every
stage
And this is what happened:
Mr.. Dalzell was elected to the 6Qth
congress by a vote of 1884 to 6,452 for
his nearest rival, a democrat. AT the
next election he received 1854 votes,
compared to 1912 for Edward F. Duffy
democrat.
Today Mr.. Dalzell is fighting for his
seat as he never fought before. In
stead of a plurality of S,062, this figure
has been cut down TO 19S in the recent
primaries for Allegheny county, and
the recount, that he now seeks 10 pre-
vent, may throw him out.
His opponent for the republican nom
nation is DR.. Robert F. Black, who
has demanded a recount of the ballots.
MI Dalzell did not relish any such
program. He procured the injunction
from Judge Josiah Cohen which re-
strains the county commissioners from
opening the ballot boxes and recount
ing the votes.
DR.. Black had charged error and
fraud" in the election.
The congressional experience of Mr..
Dalzell began in 1886 and has continu-
ed since that time He is a lawyer,
graduate of Yale college, and he lives
in Pittsburg. Mr.. Dalzell was born in
New York city April 10, 1S45.

him to take the case He applied
towels wrung out of tepid water to
the throat and lungs and in a short

BY HENRY S. PoWARs.

In 1S4S my mother died and my
father placed me in school in Gen
CSeO, where seminary was conduct
ed. GeneseO was then a village of
about 200 souls and the school was
one of the leading ones in this part
of the country. 1t was conducted
by Rev. Mr.. Lyman. 1t was an all
days drive from Rock Island to Cen
eseo, there, of course, being no rail-
road at that time. Father and l
spent the first night at a lodging
house. At breakfast the next morn
ing l noticed the coffee had a pc
culiar taste. l remarked about it
to my father, who informed me that
it was not coffee at all but parched
corn ground up and stepped in wa
ter. The landlady was a New Eng
lander who did not consider coffee
healthful, probably because it was
very expensive in those days.
l remember when 1 went to re-
main permanently at school l drove
from Rock Island to Geneseo with L.
NJ. Weber, a former postmaster of
this city and considered a resident
here, but who at the same time was
sheriff of Henry county. At my
boarding place l roomed with c. NJ.
Osborn, the well known Chicago rail-
road attorney, who was also a stu
dent and was then a resident of Rock
Island.
Geneseo was a hotbed of abolition

organization of northern people who
saw the negroes safely through from
the south to Canada. where they were
free. One night there was an unus-
ually large party of colOred people
in the village asking for clothing and
money and they were treated with
the usual liberality. A day or two
afterward it was rumored that the
negroes were students of the sem
mary, dressed in rags and blackened
up with burnt cork. Mr.. Lyman,
head of the school, called the boys
together and gave them a lecturing.
