A Nonssnslcal Excuse for what HI

A Nonssnslcal Excuse for what Hi
KindIineas Led Him To.
The late E. w. Kinsley used to re.
late the following passage OF words
between President Lincoln and Secre-
tary Stanton. relates the Boston Her.
aid. which occurred during an inter-
view Mr. Kinsley had with the presi-
dent In regard to the feeling OF Mas
sachusetts on the issuance OF the proc
lamation OF emancipation in 1868.
While Mr.. Lincoln and Mr.. Kinsley
were talking. a clerk opened the door
and said that woman insisted upon
seeing the president Mr. Lincoln
directed that she be admitted. A
poor old woman. her clothes clinging
to her worn out frame and with tears
running down her cheeks entered the
room and asked Mr.. Lincoln for a
pass that she might 60 to nurse her
son. who was in field hospital The
president told her it was impossible;
that no pass could be given to any one
outside the military.
Her grief said Mr.. Kinsley was
pitiable She pleaded with Mr.. Lin
coin to DO allowed to go and nurse
her boy till at last the president
every muscle In his rugged face quiv-
ering with emotion. turaed to his desk,
wrote few lines, handed it to her.
and said: There is your pass; go to
Secretary Stanton and get it counter
signed
The woman thankfully received
the note and withdrew to the secreta.
ry's quarters.
After her departure. Mr.. Lincoln
leaned his head upon his hand. and in
silence awaited the storm he knew
would follow. when Stanton had seen
what the missive was He was not
kept long in suspense. The door few
open. and in came Stanton greatly ex-
cited.
- Mr.. President, he said don't
you know that under no circumstances
can pass be given to civilian-why
did you give pass to this woman?''
Quick as a flash came the answer:
Because she don't wear hoops Lin
coin knew that he should not have
given the pass. and that against STAN
toms anger he could oppose no logical
excuse. so he evaded it all with that
irrelevant reply. The secretary turned
and left the room without word, but
the old woman got her pass !"

A sweet Singer.

The late G. A. White the song
writer, had no theoretical knowledge
OF music. and studiously avoided going
to the opera and like performances
lest his originality should be impaired.
His song. Put Me in My Little Bed. -"
was suggested to his mind one night
as he was going home. by seeing a
picture OF the Prophet Samuel in the
window OF Boston shop Samuel
was kneeling by bedside with his
hands clasped in prayer Mr.. White
wrote the melody and the first verse In
abont fifteen minutes When he COM
posed Marguerite The decided to at
tempt love song and then thought
outa story. With this in mind he
picked up his violin. tuned It. and the
melody seemed to come OF ITSELF with
out coaxing.

the feathers carelessly away said the
woman. and the wind carried them
In all directions well. my child. I"

many directions. Call them back now,
