A Lincoln Story.

The great public receptions, with
their vast rushing multitudes pouring
past him to shake hands, he rather en-
ioyed; they were not disaGreeable task
to him, and he seemed surprised when
people commisserated him upon them.
He would shake hands with thousands
of people. seemingly unconscious Of
what he was doing, murmuring some
monotonous salutation as they went by,
his eye dim, his thoughts far with
drawn; then suddenly he would sec
some familiar face-his memory for
faces was very good-and his eye would
brighten and his whole form grow at
tontive; he would greet the visitor with
a hearty grasp and a ringing word
and dismiss him with a CHEEKY laugh
that filed the Blue Room with infec-
tious good nature. Many people armed
themselves with an appropriate speech
to be delivered on these occasions, but
unless it was compressed into the small.
est possible space it never got utter
ance; the crowd would jostle the pero-
ration out of shape. If it were brief
enough and hit the Presidents fancy, it
generally received swift answer. One
nightan elderly gentleman from Buffalo
said: up our way we believe in God
and Abraham Lincoln" to which the
President replied, showing him along
the line: my friend, you are more than
half right Col. John Hay, in Century.

sight of printed invitation-csrd which lay
upon one o. the tables: "The Countess Of
Barnstaple requests the pleasure Of Mr..
Ellacombe's company at dinner on Thursday,
the 10th inst, at eight o'clock" TO
Gerald this missive appeared altogether I'M
called for, and he began to doubt whether his
mother was the superior woman that he had
always hitherto imagined her to ee. He said
to himself: "Its downright disgusting
Fancy making up to q drunken sweep like
that jus.. because he has a few thousands
year She must know perfectly well, too,
that he isn't ut to associate with any lady,"
So when Mr.. Ellaconbe confessed that he
didn't like tea, Gerald Severne laughed often
sively, and the laugh was followed by an I'M
comfortable interval of silence. Chris proba-
bly, did not understand why her entertainer
scowled SO ferociously; but during the sue
ceeding quarter Of an hour she could not help
seeing that Gerald was trying hard to pick a
quarrel with him, which made her treat him
with more cordially than she might other
wise have shown.
By the time that Ellacombe had exhibited
his stables and kennels he was In high spirits,
and felt that he could afford to pity and de-
epise his rival. "I shall see you again on
Thursday" he said to Chris, when he shook
hands with her and bid her goodbye; 'I'm
going to dine at your place."
As the party walked away, Gerald muttered
something which Chris did not catch, and
which she begged him to repeat. He did not
see fit to comply with her request, so she re-
marked: 81 think you are rather ill-natured.
Mr.. Ellacombe seems to me to be a rough
diamond"
"Then the sooner he is cut the better" re-
torted Gerald, with brilliant flash of wit
which somehow failed to provoke any appre-
ciative laughter.

A reIerrapher,s Adventure.

The novel adventure of telegr apher
is recorded by the Palatks Ella. Herald
as follows: BILLY DuPree, the young
night train dispatcher of the Florida
Southern, while seated at his desk last
night, with only the click, click, click
of his instrument to disturb the stiffness
of the quiet, was suddenly startled about
three o'clock by the hooting Of an inn
mense owl which few into the Office
through an open window. Billy was
just running No. "A into Ocala, where
she was to pass the down freight train,
and it was especially necessary that he
should give the strictest attention to
his business at this time. The great
owl, blinded by the light, tapped its
wings, circled round and round the
room, breaking lamps and knocking
down chairs. to say nothing of the un.
merciful treatment which Billy re-
ceived. But like Casabianca he stood
at his post of duty until all was safe,
when he made for the bird OF wisdom
and captured him. He has the owl Sc
cIrely Gagged and takes great pride in
the capture. The bird measures seven
feet from tip to tip"

From this date until after the holidavs
the EVENING DEMOCRAT columns are
worth their weight in gold" to advertis-
ers.
The enterprising merchants of this
town, who know good thing when they
experience it, are showering favors upon
us in such abundance that it 10 possible
we may be obliged to publish supplement-
before Christmas.
1t is needless to say that merchants can
find no better advertising medium in Wa
terbury for the next two weeks than the
DEMOCRAT. The columns will TEEN with
desirable reading matter and the natural
bent of the reader will be to turn from
the reading matter to the advertisipr col

1t will be well for merchants who deair.
good positions to make their arrangements

"N strikes me. SeUe,-ne," said ne, "that you
DON'T betteue that story"

don't oetteue that story"
''1 don't know anything about it, answer
cd Gerald, shortly. "I wasn't there; and I
have never, that I can remember, seen the
place you mention"
'"Then, my good friend, don't see why you
should doubt my word"
mo one is doubling your word. Would
you mind passing the wine, Ellacombe?"
Ellacombe, after filling his glass, complied,
remarking soemnly "I can stand man who
looks supercilfous at me, because know the
chances are that he's only an ass, who fam
cies himself without any reason; but hang
me if can stand man who calls me liar
That's the sort of thing" he explained, turn
ing to his neighbor, (Which nobody can be
expected to stand"
Gerald took no notice Of this observation.
Some of his guests were staggering behind
their hands; all Of them of course understood
that Mr.. Ellacombe was no longer RESPONSE
BILE for his words. Nevertheless, it was not
pleasant to know that this tipsy idiot would
shortly be let loose upon the ladies in the
drawing-room, and that there was one lady
in particular beside whom he was pretty GER
tain to seat himself. Gail can do, thought
Gerald, sis to keep an eye upon him. and re-
move him if he becomes intolerable."
Ellacombe had not the slightest idea that
he was likely to be found intolerable by any,
body. He had for a moment thought Of try
Ing W pEOfOk0 du dlbRFCdGlOn WIFI MS nOBLS
but he forgot all about that whsn the other
men rose from the table and moved toward
the adjoining room. As Gerald had antici-
pated, he made straight for the corner where
Chris was seated, talking to Lady Grace and
holding Peter on her knees. His bemused In
teligence was conscious Of little more than
that Miss Compton was the prettiest and MIC
est girl he had ever seen, that old Lady Barn
staple wanted him to marry her, that
he was quite inclined to oblige Lady Barnsta-
pie, and that the best way of making love to
a woman is to do so boldly. That, according
to Mr.. Ellacombe's experience, was what they
all liked. Some Of them migl' pretend that
they didn't; but their pretenses could hardly
impose upon an old hand.
Lady Grace got up somewhat hastily
and fed when this big, red-bearded man,
whose cheeks were flushed and whose gait
was not quite steady, drew near; and he
dropped down at once into the chair which
she had vacated. He snapped his finger and
thumb at Peter. who acknowledged the salu-
tation by bristiing up and uttering short,
low growl. Then he b0nt forward and MUIR
INJURED insinuatingly to Chris: "I say, don't
be cross"
Thereupon Chris also bristled up, after her
fashion. &C. dca't know what you mean, MIR.
Ellacombe," she said.
sob, yes, you do" he returned, with q loud
laugh. ''You were cross, or you thought you
