Pennsylvania PERsIsTENTLY
refuses women admission to the bar,
though other states are allowing
females to transact all the law busl-

and every little while make appi-
cation, but the courts decline to ad'

statutes do not allow it, while the
legislature refuses to pass a neW

at present be adopted, il is certain that So
many favor il that there win be much plain
ness Of speech when the resolution is adopt

BILE manner that this Indignation is not te T.
porary, but a matter which will seriously
embarrass him throughout his entire course.
Members say tonight there is no question
hut what majority OF the members of the
house really would be glad to see the rule
changed, but many of them are afraid Of the
speakers indignation, and fear their own
Interests will suffer if they take any such
post We action AS the endorsement of new
rule would be. Were il not for this fact, the
members who ale now contemplating the
Of new resolution believe that

Now, in the life OF Abraham Lincoln writ
ten by j. q. Holland. wherein the brief ge-
nealogy of the family is from the lips oil the
illustrious subject himself we are told /:
"Anlong those for whom the country of Ken
lucky had its savage charms was Abraham
Lincoln, the grandfather of the President,
then living in Rockingham county, Virginia.
His removal took place about 1880,
with young and tender family. >
The exact spot on which lie built his cabin is
not know IL. though believed to be somewhere
on Floyd creek in what is now Buliitt cOun-
ty. Kentucky. Hardly more of his history is
preserved than that which relates TO his
death in 1881. While ut work in the field ut
n distance from his cabin he was stealtbi!y
approached by an Indian and shot dead y
The family were of Quaker origin, and his
branch of il emigraied from Pennsylvania
previous to 1852. Descendant. OF the family
are still there, and to my personal knowledge

Apatriotic respect for The memory OF Abra-
ham Lincoln and the bones and Lineage of
the family are priceless heirloom to this
Nation that should protect it from theft or
inyidious compromise hy sensational. specu-
lative Ounce lecturers.
"Woe to him whose daring hand profanes
The honored heirooms Of his ancestry"
l offer this correction as tribute due the
memory of Abraham Lincoln, which all re-
sponsible newspapers of the Nation ought to
respect. Very respectfully,
