DAILY ENQUIRER • StJN: COLUMBUS, GEORGIA, FRIDAY MORNING, NOVEMBER ft, 188(5. Chief Figures of the Democratic State Committee. * Substantial. Karntwt. Practical Corps or Men Who Aasaiao Partial IlcspoiiHlIilllty for the Vote of the Umpire State. New York 8un. C. C. B. Walker, the chairman of the Democratic state committee in charge of the Peckham ticket this year, was the great man in charge of affairs in the busy head quarters in the Hoffman House during October. Ho is a very solid citizen, who never would be taken for a New Yorker but would everywhere impress himself upon men as a shrewd, self-contained, and able man. He is a merchant ip Steuben, has been in cougress, is a man of means, and has always been a democrat. Havin ' bolted with Kelly once and then returned to the folds, he is now in the singular posi tion of being claimed by both administra tions and anti-Cleveland forces, but in these days of unity that sort of talk is a waste of time. Mr. Walker put in a great •deal of work here and at home during the canvass. HThc burden of executive work fell this year on Judge W. A. Poucher, chairman of the executive committee, a rotund, genial man, with a round face and a chin beard, -who looks as though'he might be a coun try banker. Not to know Judge Poucher is to argue oneself unknown, for he is al most the oldest member of the state com mittee in years of membership. He has been a member ten years. He has been an assemblyman, mayor of Oswego twice, and chairman of his home county committee since any one can remember. He is a law yer by profession,and has practiced twenty- five years, but he is not and never was a judge. He got the title as chairman of the judiciary committee in the assembly. He is 50 years old, and a cool, shrewd, practi cal politician, who is so earnest a worker that this year he has broken down his health in the harness. He compares well with Judge Alton B. Parker as chairman of the executive committee, which is giv ing him very high praise. William L. Muller, secretary of the com mittee, is a man whose personality and work are familiar to all the leading demo crats in the state. He has been seen less at headquarters than usual, but has done good work through the state. He was the law partner of Gov. Hill, and is now a judge of tho court of claims, but is still nearer to the governor than any man in the state. He hasjust reached middle age and has always been a democrat. Philo H. Backus, chief clerk of the ex ecutive committee, is the slender man with jet black hair and moustache who was always found at the desk to the left of the entrance to the headquarters. He also is just 45 years old, and mst took part in active life as a member of Ellsworth’s zouave reg iment, subscribing $100 to equip himself. He first held office in 1876 as cor responding clerk for Gov. Robinson. In 1882 he went into the office of the state treasurer as check clerk, and is now cashier. He shines as a practical politician, holdiug the complexion of the districts of the state within his mental grasp with such compre hension as to make him a political cyclo paedia as far as the state is concerned. The routine and clerical work of campaign ing has long been intrusted to him. and he has made such science of it that he works npon election districts, and even upon in- •dividuals with letters, circulars and other Influences. This year he had under him type writers, a stenographer and fifty or sixty girls engaged as mailers. The steno- f rapher, Mr. George L. Betts, has long eld that trying position for this commit tee, and is one of the most expert men at his business in this city. What the work of the committee is may be judged by the fact that the postage stam ps used last Fri- <lay cost $400, ou the day before they cost jJ500 and on the day preceding that $600. AVARICIOUS HETTY GREEN. A Flfty-Vpiir-Old Widow Who is Worth At I,oust Thirty Millions of Dollars—A Financial Ama zon Who Hus No Four of Wall-Street Sharks and Schemes. New York Special to Indianapolis Journal. I see that Mrs. Hetty Green has secured the control of the Georgia Central rail road. She is also closely identified with the Louisville and Nashville railroad, own ing a large amount of its stock. She is a remarkable woman. She is the wealthiest in the United States. She has reduced parsimony to a fine art and let avarice curdle the milk of a woman’s highest at tributes. She has unsexed herself for gold, and stands a Shylock in crinoline,the object of smiles and sneers among those wno see only the moral hideousness of such a Walpurgis trick of witch-like trans formation, and do not pity the victim of this moral cancer, an eating avarice that' no wealth can satisfy. This seems severe language in speaking of a woman, but there is too much bowing and cringing before wealth in this country, too much crooking of the knee that thrift may follow fawning. There are several closes of women whom society condemns with looks of stone, but the female miser is re ceived in polished circles, though morally meaner than some of her sisters who can not here be named. Mrs. Hetty Green is worth $30,000,000' .She is rather handsome, of robust build, about 50 years of age, with iron-gray hair, strong features, and keen, penetrating eyes. She is the daughter of a New Bedford whaler, who left her $9,000,000: not long after an aunt died and bequeathed her $4,00,0000 more. With the $13,000,000 she is credited with making $20,000,000 more. Yet she feels poor. On one occasion, sev eral years ago, she came down to her bank er’s in Wall street, in a stage, with a valise containing several hundred thousand dol lars’ worth of securities. “Why did you not come down in a carriage?” expostu lated her banker. “I can’t afford it,” was her remarkable answer. Once one of her children was taken with convulsions during a stay at Babylon, Long island, and she sent for a physician. The child recovered before be arrived, and as hi3 carriage drew up to the gate it is said she called out a window, with an economi cal view: “The child is all right, doctor. Don’t come in!” Wall street has many stories to tell ot this woman’s eccentricities. A leading banker said tho other day: “Years atfo, wheal was living up town in a boarding house, I had a hall room with board for $6 a week. Harriet H. Robinson—for that was her maiden name—was stop ping at the same bouse at the same price in spite of her wealth.” Her father, E. M. Robinson, from whom she seems to have inherited her business genius, was as close as a vise and was one of the shrewd, ignorant fools who devote an entire life to the piling up of useless millions and who know nothing, through their boorish illiteracy as to how wealth may be made to minister to the higher en joyments of life—men who never look into a book, who read little but stock reports even in newspapers, to whom science is a sealed book, and to whom in art a chromo is quite as acceptable as a Corot, even li they knew the difference between the two. It is significant, doubtless by a pure accident, that the name oi the fabled gold-producing King Midas has been ap plied in science to a certain inferior species of ape. , Mrs. Green, the financial Amazon, who has proved herself a match for the schem ers and sharks of Wall street, who occa sionally engineers mysterious movements there, who has several times put the bears AN OLD TRAGEDY, Whirl! .Iu4*rr I. >ir.'li s nm m nelly Avrnuril—A Fl»«|itrr fi\.m the Ithtnry of K nit ink Karl) lupt.

She owns as little real estate as possible in two men again hove in sight, coming in tho opposite direction from that they were going but a short time before.

Rondout, November 4. — A romance which will result in a fashionable wedding in Brooklyn in the near future had its foundation the past summer in a Catskill mountain farm house near Hunter, Greene county. The young lady, who is in her teens, is the only daughter of a prominent Brooklyn man. She is beautiful and ac complished. The prospective groom is about 39years of age, but his stern, settled manner makes him appear older. Up to a few months ago he was considered to be a confirmed old bachelor, cruBty withal, and misanthropical in his views of life. Lost June he was advised by a physician and his friends to give up business for a while and seek rest in some quiet spot among the mountains. Very reluctantly ho made preparations.

The horse, with the bloody buggy and without a driver, was discovered a few miles down the road by a party of men, who at once set out on a search, as they reasonably supposed, for the dead bodies of the two men they had seen drive the horse by only a few hours before. Rob beries in that vicinity were not infrequent at that time. This searching party,arriv ing at the place where the robbery and at tempted murder had taken place, had their attention drawn by the neighing of a horse a short distance in the woods.

Three llnntlreil TIioumiuiiI Strong.” New York, November 4.—The central labor union campaign committee met to night and considered the question of form ing a permanent political organization. A call will be issued soon to all districts for delegates to a convention to be held at an early date, and at which it is proposed to form a new party that shall take an active part in the canvass of 1888. IVImt the I’ri'NN Says. Tlie Swift Specific Co. have something interesting to say to yon in another col umn. The popularity of their medicines is wonderful indeed; yet, when we see how effective it is in all diseases pertaining to the blood, wo are not surprised that its popularity is so great.. It is undoubtedly one of the best blood medicines in tbe world.—Examiner, Abingdon, Va. Swift’s Specific—'This wonderful blood purifier has received the endorsement of many of tho leading physicians both in this country and Europe, and the hundreds of persons it has cured of cancer, catarrh, scrofula, eczema, ulcers, rheumatism and blood taint is remarkable. Nothing like it has ever been known before. This medi cine is for sale in every drug store, not only in this country, but abroad, which shows its popularity.

The Clove is only a short distance from the house, so no objection was raised to her proposed expe dition. Oil her return the girl related her adventure as follows: “After walking about a mile I turned round to speak to Carlo, the dog, but the animal was nowhere in sight. I called him, but he did not come. Thinking he would soon reappear, I went on alone. I saw some wild flowers and stopped to pick them. As I raised my head I saw several yards distant what I supposed to be the dog. ‘Come, old fellow,’ I called. There was some hesitation, but it came closer and closer, but not until it wa3 nearly upon me did I realize that I was almost in the clutches of a big black bear. I don’t know anything after that. Mr. says he found me perched in the low branches of a tree, nearly dead with fright, while the bear kept, watch and guard near by. How I ever got up in the tree I cannot imagine, for I never could climb. Mr. itred at the animal, but bruin turned tail and waltzed off into the woods apparently un hurt.” It was allhost dark when the bachelor and his fair burden arrived at the farm house. Parties had been sent out to search for the missing ones, and great anxiety had been felt by the inmates of the farm house. The girl did not recover from the effects oi' her escapade lor several days, readily identified them.

It is untrue that American the jail and took tbe culprits out to the scene of their guilty tragedy and hung them to tbe limb of a neighboring tree. This was all done in broad daylight, but, as the mob was composed of men all en tire strangers in the community, all efforts of the grand jury were, of course, useless. One of these robbers was known by the name of Crouch, the other Maze. The Rev. Josiah Whittaker, a noted orthodox Methodist preacher ofthat day, was called on to oiler spiritual consolation to the con demned men. He delivered a brief address from a New Testament text, and then turning to the trembling wretches who were awaiting execution, said: “My unfortunate fellow-meu, I am sorry to tell you that in less than fifteen minutes you will both be writhing in hell.” Tho men were then swung off' from the rear end of a wagon into eternity. That “Wilderness” road had been noto rious for robberies, but this summary ac tion of Judge Lynch put a complete stop to them. Mr. Utterbaek never sufficiently recovered from his injuries to be able to do any manual labor, and for ten years past has been unable to leave his room. He could seldom he induced to speak of this tragedy, or to allow anyone to do so in his presence. Owin; Ashing vessels will be able when short of provisions to obtain supplies unywhere in the maritime ports without special per mits. Mr. Bowell, minister of customs, simply consented to allow American fish ing vessels to procure food at Canadian ports on the homeward trip.
