Acquainted with the privations of life In hla youth, he has not overgrown Ms early customs. neither has he been borne far away because of his wonderful success from the natural environments and simple tuition of his early daya. He la of the simple kind. His face Is free and frank and in hla eye there is a gleam reflecting the natural gift of penetra tion and Inclslveness which shines so lustily la all hla editorial productions. A most likeable fellow too, is he. He calls everything by Its name and In nig estimates of men and measures be never misses the mark by much of margin. CHARMS IN CONVERSATION. As a conversationalist.
