Two Fast Talkers.

Okfahmtmgrodueestwvivjfthefastesi talkers in the national house of representatives. The expert official stenographers of the lower body say that llepresentiiiites S.-mt ami I’erris am) Charley Carter —the latter with a trace of Indian "blood in his veins—-can spin out words faster than possibly anybody else in public life.
