MooRHEAD, April Last November
Frank Clark, who had just completed a term
in Jail here for drunkenness, received check
for s25 from his father at Scranton, Pa. That
night he got drunk and disappeared, and
Sheriff Sloggy concluded that he must have
taken the train and thought no more about
him until he discovered that his tool chest
and some clothing that WAS in mis- former
boarding house had been left and that be had
made no inquiries about them. Sheriff
Sloggy began to suspect foul play, and his
apprehensions have been strengthened by
receiving letter from Clark's father stating
that his son had not returned, neither had
he heard word from him since Noyem Der.
Capt. Sloggy thinks it quite probable that
Clark's body will be found in the Red river
this spring. 1t is thought that he undertook
to cross the bridge for Fargo after dark, and
some one who had watched him through the
day, supposing he had considerable money,
robbed him on the bridge and threw him

4necdote of Gen. Grant.

The Albany correspondent of the Rochester
Democrat relates the 70 flowing incident of
Gen. Grants relations with Ferdinand
Ward:
1t appears that the generals friends had
for some time advised him to shake Ward :;
but the old hero would not believe what was
told him. At last he made up his mind to
cut loose from the scamp. He went to
Wards Office, place that he did not fire.
quent, and told Ward of his purpose. Ward
expressed regret that Grant should desire to
leave concern which was in such prosper
Gus circumstances, but said that he would
have the account written up at once. In a
few moments he returned from the book
keepers desk and said that it would require
more time than he supposed, and requested
the general to come in again on his return
to town next week. Il know you are too
busy to stay now," he observed. When
Grant came again Ward asked him if he still
adhered to his purpose. The reply being in
the affirmative, Ward went to an inner room
giving the general newspaper to read. On
coming out he handed Grant a check for
81, 500, 900. Grant was astounded. 'You
don't mean that this is mine!' he said. 1T
is your share OF the profits,'' said Ward.
''Then l think it would be foolish for me to
take it out. You may give me $4,000 to-
day." And Ward raised the $25, 900 with
great difficulty.

Ldncotn's Start in Life.

From the New York Graphic.
Under what grinding disabilities Abra-
ham Lincoln labored for some years may be
inferred from the account of his arrival, in
1887, at Springfield, where the lawyer who
lent him law books had offered him part
nership. ''He rode,'' an old friend says,
''into town on borrowed horse. without
earthly goods beyond pair of saddle bags,
two or three law books, and some clothes in
a bag. He came into my store, set his
saddle bags on the counter, and said, Speed,
tell me what the furniture for single bed
room will cost I took my pencil, figured
it up, and found it would cost SIT. Lincoln
replied, 1T is cheap enough, but want to
say that, cheap as it is l have not the money
to pay. But if you will credit me until
Christmas, and my experiment here is sue
cess, will pay you then. If fail, [ shall
proba bly, never be able to pay YOU The
voice was so melancholy felt for him and
told him that I had very large double bed,
which he was perfectly welcome to share with
me, if ne chose. where is your bed!' said
Lincoln. upstairs answered. He took
his saddle bags on his arm, went upstairs,
set them on the floor, and came down laugh
ing, saying, well, Speed, Pm moved. The
ludicrous idea of moving all his earthly
goods and chattels by taking his saddle bags
upstairs had made his elastic spirit as mirth-
full as just before it was depressed"
