A Little Oversight OF Abraham Lin
collins.

The following is from an article in
he Century Magazine by Leonard W.
Volk, the sculptor: The last sitting
was given Thursday morning, and !
noticed that Mr.. Lincoln was in some
thing of hurry. 1 had finished the
head, but desired to represent his
breast and brawny shoulders as nature
presented them so he stripped off his
roat, waistcoat, shirt, cravat and collar,
brew them on chair, pulled his I'M
dershirt down o short distance, tying
the sleeves behind him, and stood up
without murmur for an hour or so. L
then said that was done, and was
thousand times obliged to him for his
promptness and patience, and offered
to assist him to redress, but he said
"No. I can do it better alone" kept
at my work without looking toward
him, wishing to catch the form as &C.
curately as possible while it was fresh
in my memory. Mr.. Lincoln left hur-
riedly, saying he had an engagement.
and with a cordial "Good-byel Twill
see you again soon," passed out. A
few moments after 1 recognized his
steps rapidly returning. The door
opened, and in he came, exclaiming
"Hello, Mr.. Volk / got down on the
sidewalk and found l had forgotten to
put on my undorshirt, and thought it
wouldn't do to go through the streets
this way" Sure enough, there were
the sleeves of that garment dangling
below the skirts of his broadcloth
frockcoat I went at once to his assist
ance, and helped to undress and re-
dress him all right, and out he went,
with a hearty laugh at the absurdity OF
the thing.

The Hen Conventional Fable.

Inc lien NOnVention-A fADi6s
A Fox who found hard picking in
certain neighborhood one day visited q
farmers Dog and said:
81 have lately undergone a change
Of heart, and l wish you to make known
the fact to your masters Fowls. They
treat me as il was murderer, and it
really hurts my feelings to see them
hurry into the coop at sunset. The
Farmer, too, seems to distrust me, for
he has made the coop so tight that I
cannot find single knothole. What
sort of way is that to treat Fox who
is doing his best to earn an honest liv-
ing ?"
81 presume you would like to state
your case to the Fowls in person ?"
observed the Dog.
"That's it-that the very idea," re-
piled the Fox. "Say to them that I
should like to meet them in convention
under this tree tomorrow at noon. /
will then explain my feelings toward
them, and trust that the Fox and the
Fowls will hereafter live in tho great
est harmony. Indeed, the only differ
ence between us is the fact that / have
no wings, and they shouldn't hold, me
in suspicion on that account"
The Dog agreed TO act as mediator,
and at noon next day the Fox crept
carefully through the weeds to the
rendezvous, and crouched down to
nwait the coming of the Fowls. There
was presently heard great whirr and
CHATTER, and two score hens aliehted in
the branches of the tree over the Fox.
"The convention will now proceed to
business" said an old Hen, as she peered
down upon the Fox.
Just So grnned the Fox. "Please
come down, and we will proceed"
Thanks; but, if it's all the same to
you, we'd rather you'd come up here,'
replied the Hen.
"But can't fly"
And we are poor runners"
The Fox not being able to fly up, and
the Hens refusing TO fly down, the for
mer was skulking off, when he met the
Dog, who said:
MY friend, the difference between
undergoing a change of heart and de-
string to undergo change of diet and
position is so obscure that many people
never stop to fish for it. As Fox, you
were respected for your cunning as
hypocrite, even the old Hens despise
you. Free Press.

The Local Paper.

apSas
Thousands of people receive all the
benefits from local paper, prosper, and
forget the editor whose heart and brain
have been devoted to the interests OF
building up the town or community in
which these same people have met with
success. Many paper located in some
unheard of town or county has been
the means of bringing the natural advan
tages to public notice, built up the viii

else to front seat and then failed be.
cause short-sighted public no longer
see direct income from the money ex-
pended to support it. When railroads
were building, when public institutions
were wanted, the local press was kept
oiled and editors kept from starvation;
but now it is as popular to send. to some
noted city for fashionable dress goods,
clothing, furniture, carpets, ETC." The
above sound doctrine from the Bur-
lington Harkeye is verified by the fol-
lowing from the Western Homestead:
"a large portion OF the people do moth
ing to support their local papers, and
yet reap the benefit every day of the
EDITORS work. a man will say, 'Ad-
vertisipg does not pay in my
business. have to keep my men on
tie road, and get my customers by
ecing after them, and YET the fact is
that the town in which he does business
wonid be unknown, the railroad over
which he ships his goods would be un-
heard of, if it Were not for the news
paper which he says does him no good
The local paper Is of advantage to every
man III the commuli Y, and when man
refuses TO contribute to support the
new pa ger on tn ground that he
does NOT need it, he might as
we'll refuse to pay his axes for the
support Of the courts and police force
on the ground that he never breaks the
law and does not need the officers.
There are men who believe themselves
honest aud pious, who are dong BUSH
ness in every community, and every day
alprolriating to their own use the
fruits of other mems labors, by resping
the benefit of the newspaper without
cont ,Nutiog accent to its support, and
get they would be terribly shocked if
they should be charged with stealing
from their neighbors. But the princi-
Pile is just the same, the only difference
is that the law can reach them in one
case, and in the other it cannot, but NOR
ally, it is just as dishonest to steal the
fruits of your neighbours enterprise as it
is 70 steal his chickens. Too much
credit cannot be given the newspaper
Tor the work it has done and is still
doing for the benefit of this country"

Reunited After Twenty Years.

AitIl WHY
The following romantic story comes
from Davenport, Iowa: One day re.
Gently the raft steamer Clyde went into
Davenport ON Der way north, and Cap
tain Douglass tied up his boat for 8
while in order to permit some of his
crew to go ashore and make purchases.
Among others who went ashore was
aaron Carter, raftsman. The weather
was very cold, with keen northwest
wind, While going along the street
Carter met poorly-clad little boy, who
was running along, crying bitterly.
Carter asked him what was the matter,
and the little lad sobbed out: I'm
cold" "Come with NO." said Carter,
and taking the boy to clothing store
he bought him suit of warm clothes
and pair of mittens. He then asked
the boy bis name. "Aaron Dunlap,
was the reply. Carter WAS thunder.
struck. "Aaron Dunlap!" he cried.
"Where are your father and mother?'
Father is dead,' the boy replied.
"Well, take me to your mother, then,
rs quickly as you csn," said Carter.
/ The boy took him to his humble HON ?.
and when Garter entered the house
the boys mother rushed into his arms
with shrek that made all the other
occupants Of the tene menr' house rush
into the hail to see what was tue mai
ter. Carter had found sister he had
not seen in almost twenty years, or
since the year 1862 when he went to
var with a Maine regiment, for his
father was a lumberman from Maine.
She married and came West the year
after, and the family in the course OF
ten years lost all sight of her because
her husband turned out badly He died
in West Liberty, Iowa, ten years ago.
three months before her youngest child
was born. The joy over this meeting
cannot be described. Garter returned
to the steamer and told Captain
Douglass that he would 10 the rest Of
the way home by rail, md on the fol-
lowing Friday morning he took the
first train for the North, with his sister,
her two daughters and her son clad
more comfortably than they had been
before in many year, for the family
had seen bitter poverty. Carter is I'M
married, and is a resident OF Chippewa
Falls, Wis. He has been lumberman
in that region for many years, rafting in
the summer and logging in the winter.
He said he should buy home and place
his sister in it. His benevolence to the
half,frozen boy restored his sister to
him.

Resources of Venezuela.

= On Jose Martinez, of Venezuela, who
is Low on visit to this country, said
recently to New York Tribune report
er: "The resourc of Venezuels are
immense. There are fortunes lying
ready to the hand of whoever will take
them. Rich mines of copper are en-
tirely unworked which would give o
yield that would be astonishing. In
some places there are petroleum springs
and forests of mahogany, and other
valuable woods can be bought for al
most nothing. The climate is such that
three crops are raised in year, and la
Dor can be had very cheap, Every
plant indigenous to tropical climate
grows in profusion. The climate is
healthy, the people are OF peaceable
disposition, and the year is one continual
summer. There are good harbors, and
the formation of the country is iavora-
BILE to the construction of railways.
"But the curse OF an unstable govern
ment is over the whole land. Every
election is sure to be revolution. The
natural incidence aud the love of quiet
and ease Of the majority OF the people
render it possible Tor few turbulent
spirits to keep the whole country in q
ferment. A man once elected to Office
keeps it as long as he can. Once in
Office, he never gets out until he is
kicked out. A president or governor
will be elected, and will at once begin
to lay plans for 10 election He will
stay in office two or three terms, the
people looking on with indifference
BY -and-bye his abuse of power becomes
too much even for the easy-goine Vene-
zuelians. BY tnis time the official has
strengthened his position so much that
q revolution is necessary to unseat him.
Then some one else is elected, and it is
the same story over again. Foreign
capitalists do not dare, under such cir
cnmstances, to invest money in the
country, and so the mines are unworked,
tho petroleum is unused and the forest
are uncut"
