"Gath's" Helpful Library.

Gath" is really marvelously prolific
writer, and when it is remembered that he
daily turns out columns and columns of
newspaper letters, one wonders when he
finds time to do such odd literary work as
write novels and articles for magazines
But in spite of the fact that Gath con
tributes 50 much to the newspapers, those
complete chronicles of the doings of the
day, much of his writing is in the nature
of ancient history. Read one Of hisletters,
and from a reference to a local or current
event, you find that he has insidiously led
you into the past Sometimes you find
yourself lost in the maZes of encyclopedia
information or reading history as put in
the mouth of some interviewee. l believe
that is legitimate word.
The real secret of Gath's great produc
tiveness lies in the fact that his powers of
adaptations are strongly developed |
wont say that-he cribs from books, though
he often quotes from them by the yard,
but he adapts their matter to hi purpose.
He has one of the most extensive libraries
on this continent, and his great hobby is
America Everything which relates to
this country and its history is eagerly Sc
cured. and he has been gathering books
for years. Whenever he comes to Gin
cinnati he visits two or three of the book
stores and goes roaming among the dust
covered shelves and purchases without let
or limit. am told he has thousands of
volumes relating to the pioneers of this
country 1t is by reason of this library
that the fountains of Gath's pen never run
dry, and he certainly manages to weave
his book-knowledge into his letters with
the most delightful and consummate art.
1 don't blame him for doing it. Few
other men, even had they the opportuni-
ties and facilities, would do as well. In
fact, sometimes think that the public
are more edited by the lessons of the past
than by the records of the unfinished

The Duchess of Edinburgh .
IChicago Tribune.1

A suggestive little story concerning the
duchess of Edinburg has found its way
into print through Leeds journal. The
duke took occasion not long ago to reason
with her upon the peculiarities of manner
and general carriage which prevent her
from being popular like her sisterin-law,
the princess of Wales. A royal row ensued,
but wound up with the announced resolve
of the daughter of the late car to model
her compartment in future after that of
the Danish princess.
1T happened not long after, " says the
chronicler, that the princess of Wales
attended charity fair given in aid of an
old woman's home. The amiable Alex
andra, out of the goodness of her heart,
went round the room speaking kind
word to each of the unfortunate women.
Now, the princess of Wales is slightly
lame; and the duchess of Edinburg. who
was present and determined to carry out
the suggestions of her lord to the letter,
went round the room behind the princess
and mimicked her, lameness and all! As
may be supposed, matters were not at all
men ded. %

How Lincoln Received the News.


Those were indeed exciting days. The
iron-clads were laundering away at the
Notifications at Drury's bluff, while Grant
was pounding at Petersburg and tighten
ing his coils so as to prevent Lee from
escaping l remember the president talk
ing over Gen. Grants plans, and pointing
out on the map how the plans were to be
executed. He was greatly excited and
could hardly keep quiet; he wanted to get
near the front where the fight was going
on. On Saturday, April l, one of the
three flags which Sheridan had captured
the previous day at Dinwiddle Court
House was received by the prC ,Ident. The
day had been one of suspense, and Mr..
Lincoln had been considerably worried
because of the Fifth corps losing ground
at Dinwiddle, so that when Col. Bowers,
of the staff, came in near midnight with
dispatches / heSitated about arouSing the
president. Learning their purpOrt, how
ever, from Col. Bowers they announced
the victory of Five Forks, | knocked at
MIR. Lincoln's door and, with an apology,
gave him the dispatches.

his night shirt that reached barely to his
knees and left exposed his long, thin legs
that were thickly covered with black
while l was reading the dispatches, with
the other kept reaching down and scratch
ing his legs He was nightly pleased
with the victory, and putting his hand on
my shoulder he said, Captain, should
never have forgiven you if you hadn't
walked me up to hear such good news.
Sunday, the I'd of April, was an es-
pecially exciting day. Late in the morn

corps, and witnessed the struggle there,
when the Sixth, Ninth and Twenty

Lee had been driven to his last lines about
