Speaking ol the prospects of the con
gressional candidate tho Telegram says:
The probability is that a majority of the
delegatee aro for Tongue for eccond
choice, on account of his experience
and ability, in which case he will come
out a winner. Though not personally
popular, ho is a "stayer," and a hard
man to throw down. In this, the Second
District, Moody will apparently have no
opposition, and as hia nomination is
equivalent to hia election, he can make
his headquarters on Easy street.
In tho matter of penmanship Senator
Tillman, of South Carolina, enjoys the
unusual distinction of being ambidex
trous. Ho is also able to wnte with both
hands at the same time, and occasional
ly, when hard pressed for time, gives an
exhibition of his ability in this direction,
much to tho delight of visitors in the
gallery. He is nlso nmbilinguous. At
nny rate any one who carefully reada the
Congressional Record must conclude
that the senator's tongue ia hung in the
middle and talks from both ends.

"We aro iu the middle of the lambing
eeaeon over our way," ald A, L, Bun
nell, of Centerville, to the Chkoniolk
man today, "and I never taw anything
to equal it. I counted the lambs that
were dropped by tho first hundred ewes
and they amounted to 170. I am cer
tain the averago number of lambs
dropped will bo hilly 150 to each hun

all of thorn, but I believe tho increase
from my entire band will not be less
than 125 per cent. Tho ewes aro iu

tho sick bed of his mother at West
Liberty, lown. Mrs. Evaiislis'nenrly 70
years old. Sho had had three paralytic
attacks beforo tho visit of tier son and
ono while he was there. The parting
from her as ho left for hia return homo
was the hardest things Mr. Evans hnd
to do in hia lifo. Yet the attendant
physicians held out Hie hopo that she
might experience a partial recovery and
llvo for years. When Mr. Evans left Iowa
vegetation had not started and every
thing was frozen as tight as a brick.
When he got to Hood Kiver his little

The supreme court has affirmed the
decioion of the circuit court of this dis
trict in the case of the State vs. Otis
Savage, who was tried hero about six
years ago for larceny of $14,000 from the
offico of tho Pacific Express Company
in this city and eentenced to four years
in tho penitentiary. An appeal was
taken by Savage's lawyers, Meesrs.
Huntington and Wilson, to the supreme
court, but through the neglect of the
attorney-general no action was taken
till a few weeks ago, when the move
wae made that resulted as ubove. Sav

of a further appeal ba-ed on grounds
outside those just passed upon by ttie

Tlio Club Perpetuated.
The banquet given last night by the
Students' Literary Club appears to have
been enjoyed by all who took part in it.
Between fifty and Eixly perBona of both
eexes were fpresent. The program as
reported yesterday waa followed in the
main, but ncvernl speeches wero added
that were not down on the bills. The
members of the club, through Timothy
Brownhill, who is justly considered the
father of tho club, sprung a little sur
prise upon tho guests in the f.jrm of a
suggestion that tho club, instead of dis
banding or even temporarily discontinu
ing its meetings, should perpetuate the
institution in some form along the
lines of the Y. M. C. A. The main ob
ject of the movement ia to throw around
the young men of the town wiio choose
to avail themselves of it, a healthy,
wholesome, Christian influence. It is
intended to have a public reading room,
supplied with the best magazines and
papers of the day, that shall be open at
alt times to anybody and everybody. A
gymnasium is also part of tho plan. At
the meeting last night the chairman,
Mr. John Gavin, appointed the follow
ing gentlemen as a general committee to
submit plans and suggestions to a com
mittee of the club: Rev. U. F. Hawk,
Rev. D. V. Poling", Hugh Gourlay, C. L.
Gilbert and Timothy Brownhill, chair
man. Tho suggestion of a club for the
literary aud moral benefit of the youn;
men met with the hearty endorsement
of all the epeakere, particularly tho min
isters, who promised their earnest and
cordial aid and sympathy.
