Soma twenty-five year ago a travel

rounded a table a short dlatance from a

disposed of his traps and a frontier meal,
ecoued himself nar the stove and busied
himself with newspaper. The nearby
imup of five aoon attracted his attention.
They war dlaousulnf earnestly a land

the group waa promoting ccntemilated

he waa a man of moods. There were times
when he waa absorbed in thought and than
bt waa taciturn. ' Again, he was gregarloua
and the life of every company be entered.
To be moody is an attribute of genius, and
ought to be a privilege of genius. It la re
lated that one. day the late William 1L
Hatch, who entered the house the day Vest
entered the senate went over to consult
the senator and found him In a fit of ab
straction, moody and taciturn. In dream
land. Indeed. Hatch had about as much
Imagination aa a washtub or a broomstick.
A big, robust man, though Ves survived
him, be was full of energy, and could work
from sun to sun. An enthuslastlo legisla
tor, he never oeaaed his labors, and of him
It might be aald aa Waduworth said of
reter Bell:
A primrose tin a river brim
A yk-llow primrose was to him,
" And "it was nothing more. '
Hatch got no satisfaction out of Vest,
who waa thinking of things In the clouds,
no doubt, so he went tearing back to the
house, aoattnrlng expletives on the way.
But some Missouri people got hold of him
and told him that Vest would be all right
next day, and to go and see him when, he
waa in the vein. And so Haxoh did and
came back delighted. There waa a discus
sion aa to what waa the ocoaslon ot Vest's
moods, and ona ox the party Bald It waa
his Imagination, that all imaginative peo
ple were that way, and cited Lamar, who
waa ten times wtree than Vest. .
"Imagination be " roared Hatch; "ifs
his liver. That's ail the matter with hliu.
Let him send for some good Kentucky
Bourbon whisky and he will be ail right."

Senator Vnt waa a fujroouji story taller

made him a moat attractive future. The
wit and sarcasm and power of invective
which ahow In his peeclief and public de
bates have been Illustrated time and again
In the incidents of his private Intercourse
with his friends and rivals. One of the In
numerable stories characterlutlo ' of his
duality was that told some time ego by
Judge Philips. It waa that of how, aa a
yuUng soldier In Price's army anxious to
serve In the confederate oongreaa, he se
cured tha aupport of Colonel John T. CtIbd, ,
who had been pledged to his opponent for
the position. Colonel George S. Ilathbun ot
Lexington.
"To placate Crip," said Judge Phl'llpa,
"Vent drew upon his inventive genius. II
sought a private Interview with Crisp, who
received Mm suspiciously. However, Vest
dex:oefl him Into the woods,' where they
sul down on aj log. Without waiting tor

to speak with you of another matter. J aee
from your attire that your life here Is a
hard one and unworthy of your gifts; your
hat la a little weather beaten; your hair
crops out at the top, and one of your ears
ia visible through the rim, and I notice
your big toe working on the outside of your
shoe; and your shirt Is peeping from the
rear of your pants; and I notice you- are
Scratching a good deal whorener you can
get your hands through a hole. Tou de
serve something better; and I brought you
out here to unfold a state secret. The ad
ministration at Richmond feels that the
Confederacy ought to take poeitlun aa a
sovereign state at the courts of foreign na
tions; and Mr. Davis wants the mxt con
gress to give authority to appoint mlrlters
and oonsula to all important foreign coun
tries. How would you like to go to Italy T
It la a charming land, of blue skies, balmy
air, redolent with the perfume of flowers;
it haa the fairest women beneath the sun,
beautiful and voluptuous And there is the
city of Rome, historic ground, splendid In
lta magnificent rulna, where a man of
genius and taate, Jlke yourself, might live
a life of elevating aaae and revel in tba
glories ot the past and tha pleasures of the
present. They drink wine there Instead of
water; and tha very night Is vocal with
sweet roualo. Crisp, If I go to congress
will have something to say about who
goes to Italy.
"Crisp edged up cloeer t Vest and, sigh
ing and looking at him with tears In his
eyes, saidt
' 'George, I dont aee why a fellow like
Rathbua wants to go to congress, anyhow.
He makes a good soldier; but what the
Confederacy wants Is a man at Richmond
wtioso gift of oratory, like yours, can com
mand attention. I wish you would see it
It cannot be arranged for Rathbun to be
made a brigadier. I have thought all tha
time you were the man to be sent to con
gress. '
"It is not positively known how Crisp
arranged the matter, but Vest was elected,
and It la not recorded that Crixp got to
Italy." .
- A Famoas IMorr.
Senator Vent's most famous anecdote la
that of Ulas Bertie Allendale. It was
told when the two chambers were arrayed
against each other on the tariff In 1801, and
the house waa insisting that the country
would go without any tariff act unless the
senate were prepared to forego Its own
achadules and adopt those of the house.
"IiXmy younger days out west," said Mr.
Vint, "I went Into a variety theatar one

where the stage manager comes before the

titled 'Down In the Valley.'
"A gentleman In a red flannel ehlrt rose
In the midst of the audience and exclaimed
In an Impressive bass voice: Oh, thunderl
Mis? Allendale can't sing for green apples!'
"The manager, who had started to leave
the stage, halted and turned. An ugly
light flashed from the eye which swept the
audlenoe and finally rested on the face of
the Interrupter. Raising one shoulder
higher than the other,' letting one hand
drift significantly toward his hip pocket,
and thrusting his nether jaw forward In a
savage way, he observed, with a dellberate
ness which emphasised every syllable:
'Nevertheless and notwithstanding. Miss
Bertie Allendale will strjg 'Down In the
Valley.'
"And she did. So, likewise, neverthe
less and notwithstanding, the senate sched
ules will stand.
Vest's Capital Cabla.
The little old cabin which Vest lodged
during his first year tn Washington as the
servant of his country Is still pointed out to
sightseers. 'When he first came to the
capital city about tha. only man ha knew
waa his friend, Joe Blackburn of Ken
tucky, and to him he applied for assist
anoe In finding an inexpensive . lodging
place. Blackburn steered him to an apart
ment which Vest aoon discovered was over
an undertaker's shop. Vest waa not
naturally superstitious, but the grewsome
sights he saw and the sounds that floated
up through hla window from the work
shop of death were anything but Inspir
ing to a man who had only one acquaint
ance In the city. He voiced his discontent
In the ears of hla friend.
"Now, don't aay that!" protested Black
burn. "Why, you are almost as gloomy aa
the last man who occupied this room. Ah.!"
sighed Joe. "Poor Jones!"
"What about hlmT" asked Vest, pricking
up "his ears.
"He's dead now," answered Joe. "I re
member the laat I saw of him. I came up
In this room to see him one evening at
dusk. I knocked and got no answer. Jones
and I were cronies, so I did not stand on
ceremony, but walked In. I ran up kerflop
right againat Jones' legs."
"WhatT"
"Tea, poor Jones waa dead. He waa
hanging from the chandelier, right over
where you are sitting now."
That waa enough for Vest. Tha very
next morning he started out, determined
to take th first lodging he could And to
escape from his present quarter VtTiat
ha found was the little cabin.

Vest numbered probably more warm per

line, and the vote was so close that It
seemed aa if his vote must decide the IssuVT
Every eye waa bent upon him aa hla name

repeated the name. Vest slowly arose.
"I vote "No," " he aald.
Principle triumphed over friendship with
Vest, and his friend Quay lost hla seat.
After Quay received hla election and waa
seated without question Veat was missed
one evening.
"Where hve you beenT" he was asked.
"Why, between you and me," waa the re
sponse, "I have been out withMatt Quay
celebrating his return to the senate."
Vest waa no worshipper of luck. "The
lucky dog," he used to aay, "la the one
that hunts, for bones, and hunta until he
gets them."
"Man's Best ITtead."
One of the most eloquent ' tribute ever .
paid to the dog waa delivered by Senator
Vest of Missouri soma years ago. He waa
attending court In a country town, and
while waiting for the trial of a case In
which he waa Interested waa urged by the
attorneys In a dog case to help them.
Voluminous evidence was Introduced to
show UuU the defendant shot the dog In
nkailce, whila other evidence went to ahow
that the dog had attacked defendant. Veat
took no part In the trial and waa not dis
posed to speak., The attorneys, however,
urged him to apeak. Being thus urged, he
arose, scanned the face of each juryman for
a moment, and said:
"Gfentlemen of the Jury: The best friend
ay man haa In the world may turn against
hiih and become hla enemy. Hla son or
daughter' that be has reared with loving
care may prove ungrateful. Those who are
nearest and dearest to us, those whom ws
trust with our happiness and our good
name, may become traitors to their faith.
The money that a man haa ha may lose. It
flies away from him, perhaps when he needs
It most, A man's reputation may be sacri

The people who are prone to fall on their
knees to do- us honor when aucceas la with
us may be the first to throw the atone of
malic when failure settle lta cloud upon
ous heads.
"The on absolutely unselfish friend that
man can have in thia selfish world, the on
that never deaerta him, the one that never
prove ungrateful or treacherous, la tils dog.
A man's dog stands by him In prosperity
and In poverty, In health and In alckneaa.

wintry winds blow and the snow drive
