POWER OF SILENCE.
Jchn Randolph used It to Confuse a
Powerful Opponent.

Powerful Opponent.
In painting the sacrifice of Iphigenia
the artist, it is said. exhausted the
emotions of grief and horror in the
faces of the bystlnders.
"He has left nothing unsaid How
can he depict her fathers sorrow?"
was the anxious query of those friends
who were watching the development
Of the picture. The artist threw a
mantle over Aganemnon's face. The
blank silence was more effective than
any picture woe.
One of the most extraordinary effects
produced by an absolute silence is re-
corded in the reports of a convention
in which the foremost men of Virginia
took part. John Randolph had a.meas-
ure to carry in which he looked for the
opposition of Alexander Campbell. a
man then noted for his scholarship and
power in debate.
Randolph had never seen the Scotch
logician. but he had heard enough of
him to make him and his partisans
uneasy. When. therefore, the gaunt
stranger first rose to speak In the con-
vention Randolph looked at him with
such an air of alarm as to attract the
whole attention of the convention and
as he glanced around seemed to be
asking for sympathy in his coming de-
feat. He then composed himself TO
/ listen in rapt attention.
Campbell, aware of this byplay, hes
itated and lost the thread of his argu-
ment. Randolph's face by turns as he
listexed expressed WEAKNESS. indiffer-
ence and finally contempt He leaned
back and yawned. Campbell sat down
hastily He had lost the whole force
of his speech Not word had been
spoken, but he was defeated. st. Louis

For Marion; Judge J. B. Kevil
Elected By The Council
Tuesday Night.

AT the regular meeting of the
City Council, Tuesday evening,
the resignation of Mr.. T. H.
Cochran, was handed in and was
accepted. Councilman Venner
nominated former Judge J. Bell
Kevil and he was elected unani-
mously to fill the vacancy during
the unexpired term of Mayor
Cochran.
Mr.. Kevil needs no introduc-
ton to our people. His integrity
has never been questioned and
his fairness when Judge was gen
orally recognized. His qualify
ing for Mayor just at this time is
opportune, as the city is soon to
build water works and no man
could plot the city in a more sys
tematic way for streets, water
works or any engineering enter

bring honor to the city as well as
