4 ~ CUR THREE GREATEST ORATORS. - "Wnbster, the Statosman; Iteecher, the Preacher; Forrest, the Actor. The most competent representatives of the art of oratory in America, in its three distinct departments, statesmanship, the pulpit and the stage, are Webster, tteecner ana r orrest. out we do not find that they did anything extraordinary outside of their profej* ?ion& Only in the raths that they habitually trod were they supreme. We langh at the horse In the treadmill, but be has a steady gait and knows it. The xnan who does a thing right along, no matter what it is. Is an expert. He does it half unconsciously, and that is the beauty of it. Webster in the senate, Btecher in tho pulpit and Forrest on the boards were in th?lr elements. ?nd their attitudes were as graceful as the poise of a bird. Use is second nature, and by use they had learned how. What they did was natural, The oratory of each was that cf his bccupation. was drilled, toned and developed habitually tili it became a fired individual medium of expression. Webster spoke as a debater. Beechor as a preacher and Forrest as a tragedian. And they did not speak with full force otherwise. The heat of debate was requisite to warm Webster to his best licks, Beecher was tame on the platform to what he was in the pulpit, and Forrest would have gone hopelessly Into the air in any attempt off the stage. But along the grooves that each " was accifstomed to play in he had no peer. Amply endowed, his occupation made him what be was. A caterpillar can eat 600 times its wdeht of food in a month.

His Final Interview With His Brother. Leon F. Czolgsz, the murderer of President William McKinley, was electrocuted In the prison at Auburn, New York, on Tuesday October 29. at 7 o'clock, in the morning. The execution was private, witnessed only by the legal number of persons. Little details of the execution were given out for publication. Everything passed off in an orderly manner. The culprit remained sulen and impassive to the er.d. f Leon Czolgosz, the murderer of President McKlniey was interviewed in his cell at Auborn prison late Monday night with the result that he refused all efforts on the part of the priests to confess or ask divino favor. Prior to the late evening interviews, Czolgosz reluctantly received Fathers Fudzinski and Hickey. It was late in the afternoon and occurred after he had once refused to meet them. After they reached the prison. Superintendent Collins con? veyed the request for an interview to the prisoner. Czolgosz sent back word that he did not care to set them, but tho priests asked to be allowed to go to him. despite his refusal. Superintendent Collins consented and personally escorted them to the cell. The priests remained with Czolgosz for three-quarters of , an hour and earnestly pleaded with the prisoner to repent and pray for divine forgiveness. He rejected ail their advices, however, and they re gretfully withdrew. They told the prisoner they would hold themselves in readiness to answer a call from him at any hour of the night. It was 7 o'clock when Superintendent Col? lins went into the death house and tried to get the prisoner to talk to him. Although he remained in the cell sometime, he was apparently not successful in getting anything from him. At eight p. m., his brother and brother-in-law arrived, and Superintendent Collins took them down to the condemned man's cell. There was no demonstration when they met. Czolgosz merely stepped to the front of his steel cage and said: "Hello!" The brother ventured the remark. "'I wish you ^yould tell us. Leon, who got you into this scrape?" The assassin answered in a rlow, hesitating manner: "No one: nobody had anything to do with it but me." "That is not how you were brought up," said the brother, "and you ought IU IC11 no Ut Ci ,T tUlUQ uw?? "I have nothing to tell." he answered in a surly manner. < "Do you want to see the priests again?" asked his brother. And he answered with more vehemence than he had previously shown; "No; damn them. "Don't send them here again. I don't want them." The brother-in-law interjected here. "That's right. Leon." -The body of Leon Czo'gosz. the murderer of^Prcsident McKinley. will not be removed from Auburn. Superintendent or State Prisons Cornelius V. Collins and Warden J. Warren Mead, after hours of controversy with Czolgosz's brother, succeeded in obtaining from him the following relinquishment of the family's claims to the remains. wb<*n the executioner shall have fin ished his work: "Auburn. N. V.. Oct. 28. "To Warron J. Mead, as at and Warden, Auburn Prison: "I hereby authorize you as warden of Auburn prison to dispose of the body of my brother, Leon F. Czolgosz. by burying it in the cemetery attached to the prison, as provided by the law of the State of New York. This request is mate upon the express understanding that no part of the remains will b? gfren to any person or society, but that the entire body will be buried in accordance with the law in the cemetery attached to the prison. "WALDECK CZOLGOSZ." Witnesses: John A. Sleicher, George] E. Graham. The resolution of Superintendent J Collins to prevent sensation in tho transportation and burial or cremation of the body of Czolgosz took new zest from two cfTcra that were submitiel # by men of questionable en'crprisa. \ museum keeper in one of the larger Eastern cities telegraphed him an ot fer of $3,000. spot cash, for cither the body or the garments of the mvrd.rer. and the owner of a kinetoscope wired Warden Mead that he "*ouH pay $2,000 for permission to take a moving picture of Czo'gosz enlcrirg the death chamber. The superintendent also had suspicions aroused as to th-> motives of some of the relatives of Czolgosz in securing the body in view of their poverty and the trouble and danger possiDie in cumiauuu nim removal and disposol. The superintendent chanced to meet Waldeck Czolgosz as he was being escorted I.o the death cell shortly af.'er his arrival and at once took the matter ur with him. He asked Czolgosz if ho wanted the body. He said he did. Collins then told him that he did not believe i: could be removed without serious trouble and strongly advispd h'm against the attempt. The plan ta taV It to Buffalo, where Czolgosz hid assassinated Ihe President, he regardel as particularly dange*ms. Collins discussed the matter from the standpoint of the Czolgosz family and said tliev would surely avoid serious anney?ne> and possibly violence by consenting to burial here. He assured Walde k Czolgosz that he and the family could attend, that they would be protected and that the body would be given decent burial. Czolgosz was obdurate, however, and Collins finally told bim that, if there was a well grounded suspicion as to the motive in claiming the body, he would refuse to surrender it, law or no law. ? j u.. c._u..u o:_i. riu?io(0u uj ocminary vjiri?. "Marriages arc embarrassing enough at best, but wht-n I married itiy wife right in a young women's seminary back East, I had my share of the circumstances that fluster one . without having her cap the climax by a break she made at the close of the ceremony." said J. H. Ashton, as he thumbed the register at the Oxford hotel. "It was the first time cither one of us had ever been married." he continued reminiscently. "Both of us ' were pretty nervous, but I thought that the ordeal was all over when I had kissed my wife in an awkward fashion before half a dozen giggling girls that she hadi insisted on inviting into the parlor to see the fun. But the minister, who was also the president of the school, had no sooner got out of the room when about twenty girls came whooping in, bent on rubbering at the blushing bridegriom. I made a grab at my wife and trieA tn hiif she h**lH hark nnrl in a moment we were surrounded and compelled to face our tormentors who all came up to be introduced with a mock gravity that made me boil inwardly. "Well, my wife stuttered a time or two and then faced the music like a soldier. 'Rose,' she said to the first girl, 'this is my friend, Mr. Ashton. Jennie, my friend. Mr. Ashton,' but she could get no further for the howls of fiendish delight which those girls let out made her for the first time aware of the blunder, and, half crying with vexation and embarrassment she caught me by the hand and wc fled from the room. "Ever since that time whei I want to see my wife get up on her high horse, I just ask her about her friend Mr. Ashton."?Denver Republican. A Riddle. r? to , .v.- x*;.it:,.,,,: ,1 ciety gave a historical loan exhibit, to which were contributed objects of a general as well as Jocal historic interest. During the temporary absence of the librarian one day a porter called and left aii oil portrait with the janitor, but did not tell the nime of the owner nor. the subject of the picture. On opening it the librarian saw the face of a man apparently about thirty years of age. with small brown eyes, a great deal of curly reddish-brown hair, high color, straight ttosc and a decided expression of scorn on the mouth. Altogether a decided air of distinction rests upon the face. The man is dressed in the high* stock, white tic and rolling black collar which distinguish portraits painted during the first quarter of the last century. The picture was hung during the exhibit with the query attached, "Who is this gentleman?" and so it bangs on the historical society's walls t<? ay.
