specially beneficial to geraniums, flu
chias. thick leaved begonias, and all

authority says: If you desire your Gala

Mrs. Lincoln,

A member OF the family of Mrs. Lincoln, the
wife of the eXpresident, is in the city. In
speaking OF the recent act of congress donating
to Mrs. Lincoln $4,000, and an additional
pension, he said 1t was unnecessary, and on
being asked why, he said
Mrs Lincoln has $4,000 invested in Al 3
per cent. government bonds. In addition TO
that she had before pension of $4,000 year.
This was ample for all her expenses, and, if it
had not been her son would have made it up
ito her. The fact is, her mind is completely
wrecked, and she is insane on the question of
poverty. She has been fearful for years, that
she would come to want. Her son has done
everything possible, sparlng no pains, money
or attention to make her life pleasant; but, be
cause he has not favored her desire tor an ad-
ditional pension from congress, she has enter
tanned hard feeling toward HIM. | know when
she got her original $4,000 that he used every
effort with congress to defeat the measure,
knowing 1t was not necessary. This very
much incensed Mrs. Lincoln, who was pos
sessed with the idea that she was in great dan
ger of coming to want She has been some
years in Europe, and when she returned she
brought back fitty.five trunks, and no end of
bags and packages, the freight on which cost
1885 from New York to Chicago. She has
been IN the habit of going out frequently and
buying fourteen or fifteen silk dresses in Il day,
and then gong home and putting them IN a
trunk and storing them. Of course they were
never taken out or used. THIS idea which has
gone out that she needed anything has eman.
ated from her own mind, owing to the fact of
her insanity on this subject, and had no real
foundation Her son, the secretary of war, is
very sensitive about the matter, and has done
all he could quietly to defeat any such action,
but his position is such, and he feels so deli
cately about the matter, that he has been una
Bile to prevent the measure coming before con.
gress. Of course, patriotic consideration Sc.
cured Its passage when 1t was brought formal
" to the attention. of senators and representa-
tives. 1t may be right, in one sense, to have a
bill passed, because it humOrs the whm OF q
woman, who's mind was wrecked through the
assassination of her husband while in a public
POSITION, and she Is afflicted with a disease
which certainly will result fatally in a few
months, and She can live but "A short time any
how, so that t Is, no doubt just as well that
the act was passed hut that she has ever
wanted anything is not true, nor indeed is It
possible that she ever could want, with her
own fortune md the watchtuluess of her son,
to do everyth nG to alleviate her suffering and
cares mental as wei as physical bcreavemcnts.'

Perhaps the most singular case OF the en-
slavement of an Englshman in Central Asia
was that of Lieutenant Wyburd, of the Indian
Navy. In 1885 Wyburd, who was an accom-
pllshed linguist, and served as Interpreter to
the Commodore in the Persian Gulf, was sent
by the British Envoy at the Court of Persia
on an i'm portant mission to khiva. The poor
man seems to have been forgotten as an official
agent for 1t was not until ten years after that
it was learned he had never reached khiva at
all, but that he had been seized and sold into
slavery by the Ameer of Bokhara. After as
pertaining this fact Wyburd's sisters repeated
ly urged the British Government to recognize
and clam their brother as a British subject
and take steps to secure his release; but theli
efforts were Intellectual, their requests beng
met by the unwarrantable assumption of his
death.
Thirteen years after he had started on his
mission it was asCertained that Hyburd had
escaped from Bokhara, but was again IN sav
erv in the khanate of Knokand. In 1910 the
Khan of Khokand sent a letter to Colonel
George Lawrence, Deputy Commissioner In
charge at Peshawur, in which he said: "a
have seized a Sahib at the foot of Huzrat Sool
tan, who came by the road of Tajkund and
Dush-i KAYAK His name is WyDart, an En-
glishman, he says, and not Russian, and that
he has been travelling for many years. He has
two PersIans with HIM, named MObammed
and Bnssen, who say they were formerly in
Stoddards service, and were sold at BOkhara
and purchased by Wypart. These men say
their master is English. Now, | have sent
Alahdad to ascertain from you whether he is
really English or not; that should he he so |
may treat him with honor, but if Russian that
may punish HIM" The agent of the Khan
was treated with, and when he returned took
with HIM letters for his master and Wyburd,
but though Colonr' Lawrence promised to send
Trustworthy agents to khokand with sufficient
funds to liberate Wyburd, no reply to the let.
tiers to either the Khan or the captive were
received.
The case of Wyburd greatly interested Mr..
Disraeli, and in 1851 that gentleman brought
the case before the House Of Commons and
presented petition from the sisters Of the cap
tive, In which they offered to send out an otii
Ger TO inquire after their brother, If the Gov
eminent would invest HIM with proper author
lty To this no satisfactory answer was given,
when they appealed to the House to take steps
to have the Lieutenant formally recognized ~
q British subject and servant, and his rcstOra.
ton demanded. II was atterward stated by
officials that everything had been tired "sholi
of assembling an army" which they consider
ed was scarcely to be justified on the score of
saving one human life. Nothing more WIS
atterward done in the case, and Tho fate ~
Wyburd Is to this day unknown CncibD0H
