/ Friend Of the Late President. ,.
Editor Of Minneapolis Tribune s.sidgs shI
Hon. WA. Howard, ofNichigan, .
|Icongressman rfrou ! that state during
1.-THE dark years Of the rebellion, and
Halter land commissioner of the North
sern Pacific r. B., told the story, which
I,shalf give as nearly as 1 can now re-
member as he gave it to me- He, was
oneof the presidential 3 party on the
"Trip to Gettysbdrg.y lOfocourse the
|;conYersation turBed on 1.-The coming
ceremonies and the oration by Everett.
|:Some friend of Mr.. .sLincoln's-aq men,
Der of the cabinet. think-turnlng to
Mfr. Lincoln, said to him: .!"They will
want to hear from you" Mr. Lincoln's
manner and voice indicated that the
idea of speech had not before oc
Cured to him, as he said: ''No, guess
not, will they % .yt- .-a--
"They certainly will, and you must
| be prepared" was the response.
Other members Of the party joined in
urging him to prepare some remarks
before reaching Gettysburg. Mr.. Linz
coin then and there. in the Car, which.
vas moving, got some paper and pen
ciied off the Gettysburg speech, using:
the crown of a plug hat,2 which hs held
on his knee for . writing desk. Ar.
Howard went on to say that at the;
close of the exercises at the dedication
the president stepped forward and
warmly thanked and congratulated Mr..
Everett for the splendid oration he had
just given them. The answer, full Of
humiliation and almsst of reproach,
WAS, .Mr. President, I would gladly
give all that I have ever said or
done to have been able to say the
words that you have spoken here"
Some time after (but few days be-
fore his death and after bis famous
second inaugural, l think it was), an
intimate friend of Mr.. Lincoln's asked
him what he considered the best thing
he had ever written or said. His char
a:teristic reply WAS, II do mo! What
do you thinkf "WelI, said his visi
tor, II think it Was the Gettyburg
speech" A few days after, meeting
Mr.. Lincoln, the latter stopped him
and said, "I've been thinking Of what
you said about my Gettysburg speech.
and jings if don't believe you were
about right" The whole idea which
Mr.. Howard conveyed was that the
speech was spontaneous tribute, born
Of tho hour, and that after it was made
Mr.. Lincoln seemed to be quite uncon'
scious that it was tho grandest produc:
tiop in the language. I was with Mr..
Howard several days on the Northern
Pacific road, and = large part Of one
day was spent in his personal remin'
iscences Of Mr.. Lincoln, whom he fair
ly worshipped IS tho greatest and best
man that ever lived, and with whom,
during those dark years of war, he was
intimately acquainted. The old man
was in feeble health, but whenever he
spoke O.. Lincoln the FIRE and enthus
iasm Of youth came back to him, and
though his voice trembled, twas with
tho feeling and oeloquence. of devoted
love and enthusiastic admiration for
the man who spoke At sGettysburg.

He halted at the door Of the gal

He hoped the photographer would
be crowded with work but he
wasn't. He hoped the camera
would be out of order, but it was
in prime condition. "Can't take

40 TINE FOR HATING.

no TIME FOR HATING.
Begone with feudl Away with strife!
Our human hearts unmatiug;
Let us be friends again! This life
is all TO short for hatingi sf
Sc dull the day, so dim the way.
Sorohgh the road we're faring---
Far better veal with faithful friend,
Than stalk alone uncaIing.
The barren fig, the withored vine,
Are types of selfish living;
But souls that give, like Time and mine
gRenewitheir lives by giving ifiisi~
While cypress waves or early graves,
On all the ways, we're going,
Far better plant where seed is scant,
Than tread on fruit that's growing.
Away with scorn! Since die we must
And rest on one low pillow;
There are no rivals in, the dust
No foes beneath the willow.
SO dry the bowers, so few the flowers,
Our earthly way discloses,
Far better stoop where daisies droop,
Than tramp ON broken roses!
OF what are all the joys we hold,
Compared to joys above us?
And what are rank, and power, and gold
Compared TO hearts that loYe us?
So feet our years, so full of tears,
So closely death is waiting
God gives us space for loving grace
But leaves Eo time for hating

"No."

Cafrey is my mortal enemy.
Ii the insult had been inflicted
upon me by a stranger or a per-
son Indifferent to me, / should
have spared his life; but bring
Caffrey before the muzzle of my
pistol, and my bullet will pierce
his heart
The man who uttered these
terrible words, shortly after
daybreak on the 7th day of De-
c;lember, 1949, in small grove
about two miles cast Of Mont
gomery, the capital Of Alabama;
was Theodore Verrie, a young
man Of wealth, belonging to one
of the oldest families of the
State.
His companion was Jack
Shannon, young man of Irish
descent, who was to act as sec
ond to Vcr"ie in his
CONTEMPLATED DUEL
With David Caf'rey, a middle
aged man, who on the preced-
ing day had grossly insulted
Verrie at saloon in Montgom-
cry. There Caffey had said to
Verrie, HFYour father was a dog,
but You are not even puppyI
Verrie bad struck him in the
face, whereupon Caffrey chal-
lenged him.
The challenge had been prompt
ly accepted, and the duel was to
be fought with pistols at twelve
yards distance.
VGrrie had arrived first on the
fieldsofrhoppr, bat Caf'rey soon
made his appearance. The lat
ter was a rather disagreepLle
looking man. There was a
lurking restless expression in
his small gray eyes, and his ug-
liness was increased by his re-
markably tall and gaunt form.
His second was John Al
bright, a weIl-known sporting
man, whose company was
stunned by the better class, al
though nothing discreditable
had ever been proven against
him; but there we're vague re-
ports that his, antceedcnts in
Eastern Virginia, whence he
had come TO Alabama, had been
very bad.
The distance was measured
off and the order to fire was
given. Both duelists fired into
the air, and declared themselves
satisfied with the result, but
they refused to shake hands.
They then started back for
Montgomery but Verrie and
Shannon never reached that
city. They we're found >two
days later by a negro
RDDLED WITH BULLETS
In a canc-break about a mile
from the city. Both of them
had pistols in their right hands.
The pistols had been fired off.
When the two corpses were
brought TO Montgomery the
most intense excitement Gu
sued. Business was entirely
suspended, and the names Of
the dead men were on all lips,
Had they killed each other? OF
had they been murdered? The
former question was discarded
as utterly Impossible, because
the two victims had always
been on the friendliest terms,
So public opinion in Mont.
gomery settled down to the con
viction that Verrie and Shan,
non had been assassinated. Bn,
who could have been guilty Of
SO dastardly a crime2
When it became known Calf
rey had quarreled with Verrie
he was arrested, but Albrigh
positively swore that he hat
