HON. BEN TILLMAN.
Tn’k? to a Time, Reporter. Some of his
Peculiar Views.
Among the passengers on the north
bound W- & A. train from Atlanta last
Friday afternoon was a man whose
striking personality distinguished him
from the average crowd as readily as
the lion is distinguished from the num
berless beasts of the jungle.
He sat over against the window, his
big slouch hat pulled carelessly down on
one side of his round full head. The pe
culiarly, prominent nose, the square
chin and the massive jaws which closed
with a bull dog suggestiveness all indi
cated a character vast in its strength,
vehevement in its outward manifesta
tions and in all things unique and
picturesque.
I had never seen Ben Tillman, but the
moment my eyes fell on the face ot this
passenger I knew the great volcanic South
Carolinian was before mei To me he wus
an interesting study, and for some time I
sat and watched him. His round, blunt
face and head showed immense mental
resource, and in many ways suggests the
picture of Robert Toombs. There seemed
to be a kind of atmosphere of vastness
about the man. Misdirected and volcanic
greatness, perhaps, but greatness still.
1 went over and talked with him. He
said he was en route to Chicago and
would make a number of speeches in the
Northwest. ‘‘l see,” said he, “that you
are having a considerable fermentation
in Georgia politics, but I think every
thing is all right here.”
.. He was of course very hopes ul of Bry

but said: “The people may have to
stand such things as we have now four
more years, but they will not stand it
any longer. If they can’t get relief
one way they will get it another.
Silver is" bound to be the money of
this country, and the i r u cent that
this nation—this great, vast Anglo
Saxon nation —cannot manage its
own money affaiis without the help
ot any European power is like an ele
phant going to a nee dog for help. I
have, 1 will admit, often felt very des
pondent over the outlook of our gov
ernment. It has seemed to me that
we were drifting to sure depotism,
but of late years I have noted many
things which indicate that our people
are growing in the art of self-govern
ment and I have unbounded faith in
the final and permanent triumph of
Anglo-Saxon common sense and con
sequent good government.”—J. A. H.

The editor of the Popular Bluff (Mo )
Republican says: “When we were pub
lishing a paper in 1872 in Mt. Vernon,
111., on the second floor, a store was open
ed under our office. The seni >r proprie
tor came upstairs and contracted for three
columns of space for twelve months,
locals each issue and 2,500 dodgers each
week. He remarked that it was a snap
to get into a town where the other busi
ness men did not advertise. This firm
started on borrowed capital. In less
than three years it had money enough to
start two stores, one in Sedalia and one in
St. Louis. It dissolved partnership and
each partner took a field to himself.
Bryan Nugent was the partner who made
the contract with us, and who is now
senior member of B. Nugent & Brother,
the great St. Louis house. He not only
owns the store building and ground, but
is now erecting a modest little cottage
home which will cost him $7,000. We
may add that some of the old moss back
ers who were in business at Mt. Vernon
before Bryan Nugent ever saw that place
are still there grumbling about dull trade
and hard times.”

A NERVOUS WRECK.
There Was Some hlrg Worse Tn an Ghosts
the Ma'ter With the House.
He shoved the door of the real estate
office open so haid that it slammed
against the wall and walked quickly to
the man in charge, relates the Detroit
Free Press.
“My wife rented a house of you last
week,” he said. “My name is Jenkins.”
“Ah, yes, Mr. Jenkins, I remember.
That is one of the finest houses we have
on our list. You were lucky to get it.
We had a great many inquiries about it.”
<■ “Somebcdy else vyanted to rent it?”
“Yes. There was a man here this
morning who was extremely disappointed
because he did not get it.”
“Sit right down and write him a pos
tal card telling him to come after it. I
want you to move me somewhere else.”
“Don’t you like the neighborhood?”
“It’s a splendid neighborhood, so far
as the appearances go, and I have no
doubt that the people are as agreeable as
any to be found in the city,”
“The house is in splendid repair.”
“First-class.”
“It’s very conveniently located,
too.”
“Yes.”
“Well, will you tell me wbat on
earth you are going to move away
for. when it pleases you in so many
particulars?”
“Did you ever notice the number of
that house?”
“Yes. It’s 1621. There’s nothing
wrong with that number.”
“That’s what I thought. The first
time I went up the front stoop, I
looked that number in the face with
serene confidence. It was almost a
week before it struck me that there
was anything unusual about it. Then
the nightmare burst upon my senses.
And now I hive to walk up and down
the block two or three times before I
can get up enough moral courage to
bully myself through the front door.”
“Maybe your nerves are unstrung,”
the real estate man said deprecating
lv. “Maybe—maybe you see some
thing that isn’t there.”
“I’ll confess to beir g nervous. But I
don’t drink a drop I have done my
best to keep away from the turmoils
of the political campaign, because I
know that excitement is not good for
me. I’ve been besieged by my friends
to take part in arguments on the free
coinage question, and I’ve devoted so
much time to dodging a single phrase
that I reckon that I’ve come to be
something of a fanatic on the subject.
But it’s worse than Banquo’s ghost.
I thought that in the privacy of my
own home, where a man’s feelings
are respected if they are anywhere on
earth, 1 could get away from it. But
last niirht, as I started to get my key,
those fingers caught my eye There
was something about them that fas
cinated my gaze. Then I saw them
slowly separate in away that showed
where the horror was. If you have
any haunte 1 houses on your list that
you are anx’ous to work off on some
body, I’ll move in and take my chances
with any of the old fashioned appari
tions, But I won’t undertake to live
any longer in a house where the num
ber over the door slides apart every
time 1 look at it so as to make 16 2 1.”
