appeared hard and practical. and vet no
man ever lived who needed and ctaved
sympathy more than Lincoln. He was
strongly social in his uata~s rai i}ar-f
people rather than places. Like all men
Of the highest courage fearing nobody. he
hated none. He would oppose man to
death. but he would never hate him.
While Lincoln was fearless in his own
nature. he had the keeuest forbearance
for the timidity Of others. He would
never consent to shoot a soldier for cow
ardlce. He called them leg cases No
one need ever expect me TO sanction the
shooting of man for running away in a
battle, he said t0me once; i won't do it,.
A man can't help being a coward any
more than he could help hump back, if
he were born with one Then, to me
again, he said, Voorhees,, were you ever
scaredN
Il confessed that had had some little
experience that way.
" So have l, said Lincoln, laughing,
and l know Just what it means And in
any contest or controversy which arises
between the head and the heels | never
knew the heels to get anything but the
best of it. No, sir, they needn't send
any leg cases to me at all. I'll never
order man shot for any such offence
Once when | was up to the white
house to see him about something, he
turned to me with pathetic look of anx-
lous pain and said Voorhees,, doesn't it
seem strange that should be here-I. a
man who couldn't cut a chickens head
of, with blood running all around me2' -

probably breaking her neck. Then she
jumped into a boat, put to sea and
was picked up by Spanish
vessel bound for Conception.
Al this place her brother was secretary

the relationship, got her commission ia
the army Very soon afterward she dis
tlngulshed herself in an engagement, and
for twelve Years she ranked as one Of the

this same brother, Flying for life once
more, Catalina crossed the Andes. All
her companions persisted, but she reached
THURMAN after terrible adventures. An
other love affair, all on one side, and an
other fatal duel brought her literally to
the gallows, but with the rope around
her neck she escaped. Travelling on to
Cuzco she joined an Alcalde with pretty
wife and gentleman, his
friend. In very few days
Catalina perceived that these two
had an understanding. The Alcalde per

murder his faithless friend. He would
have murdered his wife, but Catalina
snatched her TO the saddle and road
furiOusly for Cuzco. The Alcalde pur-
suing, she ran him through, but received
a desperate wound. The fugitives got
safely to the bishops palace. Catalina
knew, however, that her secret must be
discovered now. She had just strength
enough to reveal it to the bishop before
fainting. The worthy man reported the
whole story to the king, who sent orders
that Catalina should be dispatched by the
next ship. All Spain declared for the
heroine At her arrival Count Olivarez
himself, the prime minister, met her; the
king kissed her; the pope sent for and
forgave her, and Velasquez painted her
portrait

THAT MUSIC HATH CHARMS.
Experience of Famous Tenor and an
Equally Celebrated Violinist,

From the London Gentleman's Magazine.
The famous tenor and father of Mall
bran was once in Mexico giving operate
performances. War broke out and Garcia
was soon on his way home Before he
had reached Vera Cruz band Of brigands
met him and took not only his money and
valuables, but also his clothes. In ran
sacking has things the jolly brigands soon
found out that their captive was sin p,
50 they demanded a song. Garcia politely
refused. Then the attitude of the rob
bers became menacing and Garcia thought
it well to acquiesce. He did SO, and was
led to a prominent position for the better
enjoyment of the song. The great vocalist
opened his throat but could not progress,
whereupon the soi-distant patrons Kissed
and cursed. This was terrible to bear
insult and derisiOn. Garcia made another
effort and burst into fight of song which
entranced its hearers-so much so that
they restored him part of his clothes and
vaiuables and escorted him as near as they
could safely venture to the coast.
Something of a similar experience was
once the lot of Cherubini, who had to fig
ure in the role of a fiddler in spite of him
self. In the stormy days of 1892 it was a
perilOus experiment to walk the streets
of Paris During an occasion of more
than ordinary excitement the composer of
Les DeuX JournceS, - "Medee," etc, fell
into the hands of a band of sans culottes
who were rowing about seeking musicians
to conduct their chants. To them it was
a special qualification to compel the talent
that had formerly delighted royalty to
minister now to their own qualification
On Cherubini firmly refusing to lead
them low murmur ran through the
crowd and the fatal words; THE royal
list, royalist" went up. At this critical
moment one of Cherubini's friends-alsO
kidnapped musician-seeing his immi-
nent danger, thrust a violin in his UNI
willing hands and babe him head the
mob. The whole day these two must
clans accompanied the hOarse and over
towering yells of the revolutionary
horde, and when at last halt was made
in public square, where a banquet took
place Cherubini and his friend had to
mount empty barrels and play till the
feasting was over.
One notable instance should be men
toned of the art being resorted to unsuc-
cessfully, but the severity of Mars had
more to do with the issue than any want
of sincerity on the side of Apollo
Adolphe Adam had been drawn as CON
script, but, preferring to serve his
country musically rather than martially,
he went to the master of the cOnserVa-
tOire and begged him to write certificate
for him to be excused. Cherubini knew
the law of his adopted country and was
cautious. 81 certify that Adolphe Adam
is exactly fitted for the classes of the con
servatoire," wrote the great theorist.
Adam was disappointed with the attesta-
tion and certainly would have gone a sol
diering save for a defect in his eyesight
which disqualified him from military ser.
vice. To this physical defect the world
owes many beautiful compositions which
are rarely heard out of France

A NIGHT WITH RATTLERs.
Terrible Experience of Tent Show
man Whose Pets Had Broken Out.
From the Pittsburg Dispatch

From the Pittsburg Dispatch.
New Castle, Sept. 2.-David Baxter
came here from Forest county with box
containing about two dozen rattlesnakes
of all sizes and ages He had little tent
and exhibited the reptiles for money at
the comfy fair. Late last night Baxter
went to sleep on the side of the tent oppo-
site the box of rattlesnakes. Some time
after midnight he was awakened by
something crawling across his face. He
clutched his hOrse-blanked cover and
drew it over his face. The movement
seemed to disturb a number of other
snakes that had escaped and in a mo-
