Texas Cowboys and St Louis? jorts Betting on the Birds.

Mr. Fred Caaey. proprietor of the Road House, on the 8ilver How road, recently returned from a tour of the Rast, and in conversation yesterday with a repreaen ta tive df T hk Miser told of a great cocking main which he witnessed a t Dallas. Texas, on the twen y-third of last month. Mr. Casey is himself the owner of some pugna­cious birds, and his description of the event was renders 1 interesting by the fact th a t its au thor is an expert.

“The main,” said Mr. Casey, ‘was be­tween the Nussbaumer Brothers of Dallas and Grassinuck <fc Gsrtenbold of St. Louis for $200 a battle and $2.0"0 on the odd fight. The Nusnbainner Brothers have fought surcesefully the past five years throughout Texas and against all comers. The St. Louisians, who breed the red-horse cocks, went to Dallas to test the merits of this celebrated strain against southern b:rds. When the first battle opened, t ( amphitheatre held 500 |>eople; sieek-lo -k log individuals in high isilk hats rubbed against cowboys with broad-briinined soin bereros and old weather-beaten cockers, The scene was one peculiar to the climate. The intensity of attention on all rides to ­wards the pit was only diverted by the healthy cry, “Here’s fifty on St. Louis,” or the cowboys' banter backing Dal as, which was accompanied by the shaking of gold pieces in hands held high in ihe air. The high-toned blue clouds R e in s were engulfed in the milky way of five-cent cheroots. Many men chewed to bacco vigorously and spit about recklessly About $5 000 was up on the main, but th a t is a paltry sum compared to the am ount th a t is ha riled by sporting men from New Orleans. 8t. Louis.Chicago, Kan sasC ity and every city in Texas. G. P Hastings, of Paria, Texas, strode around looking for pointers and telling of his Dominique birds bred by O'Neal, of Louis­ville. He has been handli'-g cocks for many years and has the gaff business down fine. George F. Gerser, of Kansas City, talke of nothing but liis cottonwood birds. Charlie Brown, of Columbus, Georg'a, the chief cocker of the South, gath ­ered a crowd about him and told of cocking in Georgia, where they rode hun dreds of mile to stay a week around a pit Capt. Bedell, a Texas authority, smoked and talked with Jim Wright, of Paris, Texas, about cocking in the pine woods of Texas thirty years ago. The first battle went to Dallas in three minutes and six seconds. At least $500 changed hands on the outside. St. Louis took the fight in two minutes, and $900 changed hands, Again St. Louis came out winner, taking the third battle in ono hour and twenty minutes. The excitement over this ex tra ­ordinary fight grew so intense and the money was offered so rapidly th a t the ■ound of voices was like the rushing of waters. After the main, crowds gathered a t the hotels and saloons to talk over the days work. It was the biggest cock-fight Ing I ever witnessed, and I have seen a few events of the p it and gaff.”

Kail road Band«,W ashington, March 9.—The Secretary of

the Interior Iiiih rejected the selection of aome 13,000 acres of land made by the St- Paul, .Minneapolis and Manitoba Railway Company within Dakota. The selections made hotween the six and ten-mile limits were rejected because of having previously been selected as indemnity land by the Northern Pacific Railway, and the Secre­tary holds th a t the priority of selection gave the superiority of the right.

COD FISHING FROM THE RAIL.In cod fishing, according to the old skipper,

‘you do not get so much pork for your shil- ing. ” The fishing grounds, as shown by the :uap, arc situated at a greater distance. The Georges I>ank, for instance, is due oast of C'ajjo Cod about 200 miles. It is where the tide ‘ti strongest, the winds fiercest, and the sea the roughest, that the cod and halibut make their homes, and it requires a brave heart to face tho cold and other dangers of this calling. Often during the winter the deck and rigging are constantly covered with ice. There are two methods of fishing. Fish­ing over the rail is shown in the illustration. Here each member of the crew tends a single line fastened to a peg in tho rail called a

soldier;” this is the customary method in rough weather. When the sea moderates

RUSSIAN LEGATION.The residence of the Russian legation is a

of legation. The fine house in the picture is in the most fashionable part of K street.

Monsieur Theodore Roustan is the French nvoy extraordinary and minister plenipoten-

tiary. That is the full official title of the boss representative of a foreign court. The minis­ter from our sister republic across the water is 1 dark, lively individual whom the ladies like very much. For one thing, they are sure he is a bachelor. Most of the diplomatic corps pose as bachelors in Washington, although it is said that many have left wives and fami­lies behind them. The bachelorhood of a member of the diplomatic corps here is a very uncertain quantity.

The German minister, Baron Von Alvens- leben, is another single man, but he keeiis house to himself in tho mansion owned by his government on Fifteenth street.

The Italian minister is Baron dc Fava, who tries to make believe that diplomacy in America amounts to something, but he can’t make it out. Ho is a handsome, dark eyed, white haired man.

When ho calls order he pounds the table with this, and there bave oe-n no scenes this session in which he has not been able to en­force it. Senator Sherman is now in his thirty-first year of public life and he has served more terms in the senate than any other member. He is the oldest man in point of service in the public life of the country to-day, though by no means tho oldest in point of years. The two oldest senators, Pavne an l Morr.ll, are each thirteen years older than Sherman, and John A. Logan, with hair like the raven’s wiug, is no younger than Sherman. Ttte difference between Logan and E Imun-is shows the folly of trying to estima e men’s ages by their looks. Edmunds is four or five years younger than Logan, but he looks twenty years older His head is h ilf bald, and his beard is like snow. His shoulders are steeped, and he rarely laughs Logan steps about li.ie a gamecock. Edmunds moves as though the weight of the < oun ry was, as it is to some ex ant, resting up>j_i his shoulders.

sett, their in 'er. Capt. Bassett is often taken for Senator E itnunds. He sits in a ereat, leather-cushioned chair, just below Vio -President Sherman, and he feels ihe dignity of his position perhaps more than any man in the sonate chamber. Little page boys sit on tin steps beside him. an 1 ho thumps them on the head when he orders them to go on errands. For fifty-four years Capt. Bassett has been in the employ of the senate, and he has not in i - so 1 half a dozer, days during that time. Away back in 1830, when he was a black haired boy. liko the smallest of these page, over whom he now rules, Daniel Webster took him on his knee and asked him if he would not like to be a senate page. He replied yes, and the thing was done. Since then he ha « been continuously in service at tin Capitol, and i;e has seeu generation af-er generation of senatorial great men rise au l tail. He heard the great, debate of Webster and Hayno, anti he savs the most wonderful speaker ha has ever known was Henry Clay. He knew Calhoun, saw Brooke« strike Sum­ner, and was a great friend of Sam Hous­ton. He can talk to you by tho hour about the vice-presidents of the past, and he will relate with a laugh how Martin Van Buren borrowed flity cents of him to buy >n aff while he was vice-pres.dent an l went away for­getting to repay it, Tho senators were great snuff lakers in those days, he will tell you, and they used to keep a snuff box on the vice-president’s desk. Vau Buren, Clay and Fillmore ail snuffed and Van Euren gave Fassett fluy cents a week to keep a supply of «»«iff

oozes, caps. Bassett says he learned to snuff by smelling his fingers after carrying pinches to Henry Clay, and he tells me he has great trouble in keeping the pageboys from getting in the same habit.

The senators sit behind little mahogany desks, in three half-moon rows rising one above another, facing the vice-pre-iden: and the clerks. Just below tha clerks’ de«ks. al two little tables, sit t ie senate reporters. Then men are the fastest shorthand writsrs in the country. Tbev take do wn the pro­ceedings of the senate, and every word tha< is uttered by senators UDon the floor. rhief of them is a wiry little fellow of about j 51 vear o. age, » ho is paid $35 UM a vear fo- doing the wodc. ll ia t little fellowat the right- ban! table is he. Hie name is Dennis F. Murohy, and his tide is the official sten­ographer of the senate. He looks more like a $1,200 department clerk than a m in with a net income of perhaps $15,030. Not over five feet eight, he does n o , weigh more th in 125 pounds H s bea d is of a 1 ght brown, I his little head is «ginning to grow slightly ba d; but as far as activity and good humor Is concerne 1, he is in the prime of lila Dennis F. Murphy is as well known to tbe great man of the country as any man in America. He has been reporting speeches since 1860, and he has been connected with the -enate for a full gen-ration. He was the leading short-hand m in in the tria l of President Lincoln's assassins, and he ha« re­ported all of the senators from Webster until now. “Daniel Webster,” he says, “talked very slow.

ington cosmopolitanism. The blue s?ats set as.de for the d.plo nats are filled with for­eign ministers The gold and white division known as the press gaUery is alive with cor­respondants, who, with telegraph messen­gers a t their side, write page after page to be put upon the wire almost as fast as it leaves their pens. The reserved gallery set aside lor the senators families is crowded with a kid-gloved throng and the general and ence seats have all classes, from the Washington loafer who comes here because it is cheaper to sit in the senate than to have

a fire in his room, to the gray-haired old claimant who has sat for years in the gallery hoping that his dead bill may come to life again. The bald- headed negro who is chief of the de­bating society is in the gtdlery, gather­ing stray bits of information o n p a r l i a m e n t a r y

law, and near by him sits a bride and groom, who think they are watching the senate, but who, it is very evident, are interested in no one but themselves. I often take a seat in these galleries and listen with amusement to 1 he conversation going on around me. One day I heard a bride say to her black-haired groom, as she gazed down on the rosy exp inse of Senator Ed­munds' bald bead: "Oh, Edmund, I wishyour head was like that!”

“And why?” asked Edmund. “I don’t." “Oh. it wou-d be suoli a nice place to

kiss,” was the silly bride’s remark.Senator Edmunds’ usual position in the

sena e is sit ing in his chair upon his spine, with his eibows resting upon his breast and bis chin upon bis hands, in this position his bald head shows up a t the galleries as fair and rosy as that of a m ilkmud’s cheek. The skin is almost transparent in its white­ness, and the fine s Iky hair which surrounds the oasis of baldness is as white as frosted silver. I t shines as though it were polished, and it does not look as though it ever had bad or ever would have a coat of hair.

isiers, and there is hardly one in five hundred who can name over without study ten sen­ators of the United States. I sat in the re­served gal.ery of the senate yesterday, be­hind a young lady in a re ilskin sack and a Paris bonnet, w ho wras a graduate of Vassar college, and who is now having her first season in Washington. A young officer was sittiog at her side, pointing out to her the leading senators. Her remarks showed great ignorance about them and their records, and i was surprised to hear her say in an earnest tone, after looking around the chamber tor some time: “ I would like to see Ben Wade. Can you point him out to m e f

She was astonished when the officer told her that Ben Wade had been dead for years.

I have seen him on a street car perusing this very paper, and watched tho merry twinkle in his eye when he found a humorous repre sentation of himself. John’s strong charac­teristic was his unostentatiousness, and for that reason people know very little about his private life.

Meeting Mr. J . Fairfax McLaughlin on Broadway the other day we talked about the old “boss.” Mr. McLaughlin had been as­sociated with Mr. Kelly for some thirty years and has published his life. He said: “Yes; I probably know more of Mr. Kelly than any living man. He was bora in New \ ork city, April 20,1822. His father died when he was R years old.

When Tho New York Herald was in its infancy, young Kelly walked in to the office one day and asked the elder Bennett if ho wanted an office boy. Ben­nett was a good judge of character and quick in deciding. He talked with the youth a few minutes, thon told him to go to work. Ho became a great favorite with Bennett, and

‘when a t length he grew older and determined on learning a trade, so as to better support the large family that was depending on him, Mr. Bennett offered him strong inducements to remain, and on parting with him predicted that he would succeed anywhere. The elder Bennett was as strong a friend of Kelly’s as the present Bennett is a bitter enemy. Kelly learned tho trade of soapstone cutting and grate setting, a t which ho afterward made a considerable fortune. He proved to be a remarkably shrewd business man and his faith in the future of Now York city was so great that with every $200 or $300 he would get, he bought a lot up town, these lots are worth to-day from $5,000 to $10,000, and Mr. Kelly is reported to be a millionaire. Though his charity has bera distributed most secretly, it is estimated that he has dispensed a quarter of a million dollars in that way. When a young man John was notable as an athlete. The notorious John Morrison said of Kelly that he had tho build of an ideal pugilist. Though the cartoonists have always represented him as a dumpy man, ho is nearly six feet in height and weighs about 240 pounds. Ho ran with the “fire laddies” in his early days and made hosts of friends, who elected him alderman in 1853. Tweed, of ring fame, afterwards said of thi3 body: “There never was a time before that you could not buy the board of aldermen, and if it was not for John Kelly’s severity you could buy it now.

In Exist«.Cast ashore on a lone, barren isle In the sea into which flows the Nisla,With no clotba« but a battered old tisla— From a full sui,; a ra ther scant pisle—I of course could not dress with much allste. While 1 dwelt in that residence vi»le;But as there was no one to srnisie,I managed the years to begisle—That had else been a long weary whisle_W ith many a stroll in my tisle,And many an innocent wisle,That kept in good order my bisle;Till a skip tha t sailed many a misle Brought me home from my dreary exisle, And 1 this way the tale place on Asie,W ith the trust that it no one will risle.

I paused as the great crowd surged ahead- “Had no supper last night—ner bed—Ner a cup o’ coffee a t breakfast time—Ner a rusk a t noon! And the fact is Tm A-starvin’ here in the city street For a dime to buy me a crust to oat!’’

And I flushed, as I thought of the shamt- less wrong—

Is he thus so shunned bv the soulless throng—

The hundreds and thousands tha t p an himhere?

But, e'en as I feel the rising tear,1 felt in my pocket’s depths, alackl My own lone fortune of one greenback—And 1 stayed my hand in its upward ranga S.gaing to say that i had no change.

In 1854 he was elected to the thirty-fifth congress. He resigned his seat before bis last term was completed to take tho office of sheriff of this county, to which he had been elected. I t was while in congress that Gen. Cass, President Buchanan’s secretary of state, spoke of him as “Honest John Kelly," which he has been commonly called since. In 1868 he was chosen tho candidate for tho mayor­alty in opposition to Bill Tweed’s Tammany Hall candidate, but an awful burden of do­mestic afflic tion in the loss of his wife and son compelled him to withdraw and take his two daughters—all that was left of his family—to Europe for his own health as weil as theirs. He remained away three years and during his absence New York city was given over wholly to tho plunder of tho Tweed ring. Prominent men like Mr. Tilden, Seymour, Hewitt and Belmont sought Mr. Kelly to help thorn in this crisis. He had vowed never to again enter politics. Their importunities continued for a year, till a t last he entered the fight, and while Mr. Tilden and Charles O’Connor attacked the Tweed ring in the legislature and in the courts, Mr. Kelly had a hand to hand tussle with them in Tammany Hail, then- citadel, and routed them, as is well known. This gave him a prestige which he has held sineo. An idea of the tremendous power tlds ring wielded may be obtained from tho fact that

ithey gave employment to 12,000 persons and disbursed >30,000,000 annually. In 187« Mr. Kelly was appointed comptroller of the city,

• and not only stopped the debt of the city in­creasing, something unprecedented, but actu­ally reduced it $12,000,000 during his terra of office. Mr. Kelly’s career for the past ten years is more familiar to the reader. In pri­vate lifo ho is the most convivial of compan­ions. Temperate, witty, a good story teller and possessed of a flexible baritono voice, with which ho has often enlivened political gatherings. '

H oratio Seymour and Mr. Delavan- During my first administration, said the

late Horatio Seymour, Mr. Delavan (who built the Delavan house in Albany), the great apostle of temperance in his day, came to me to express his dissatisfaction with the ex­isting statutes which punished men for selling liquor under certain circumstances, making them amenable, and to urge more posi­tive legislation. I said to him: “Now,suppose you could get a perfectly effective temperance law that cculd bo executed, and that by way of supplementing or adding to its efficiency you could put the man who had been intemperate under circumstances where he would labor industriouslyand regularly, engage Li no evil con­versation, go to church twice onSunday, and, indeed, be withdrawn from other temptations. Would you like such an arrangement?” “Yes,” said he, “ that is a more perfect system of law than I supposed could be made.” I then replied: ‘ i will show you just such a system in operation. If you will go down to Sing Sing prison, I will show you hundreds of men living under that exact system. They cannot drink, cannot in­dulge in other vices, in evil conversation or communication, are blighted to have the chaplain talk with them, régulai- in habits, go to church twice on Sunday; but the whole system is one of coercion.* Now, if your boose was robbed, and you knew that a t>as in the neighborhood who had been living under your ideal system, he would be the flret PVa wham yçu would arrest?’’
