Ia a Valuable Relic.
New York Advertiser.
1t Is perhaps o noteworthy fact that
Abraham Lincoln left fewer relics behind
him than almost any other of our Presi-
dents. Though his death occurred such q
comparatively short time ago. the objects
which. so TO speak, are permeated with his
personality are exceedingly scarce: "A
token doubly valuable on account OF the
associations with which 1t is surrounded Is
in the possession of Harry G.. Campbell,
formerly chairman OF the Campbell Burner
Company, of PIttsburg, who Is temporarily
stopping at the Astor House., in this city.
1t Is a Hall open face gold watch with
case No. 14.964. which was owned by Presi-
lent Lincoln and worn by him during some
of the most trying periods in our Nations
history. 1t came into Mr.. CampbelPs pos

kept him busily employed during the war
carrying messag es to the different depart
ments and to the front. and seemed to be
much attached TO him.
On Christmas day. 1864, the President
presented Heyser with tho watch that he

Engineers Who Refused to Handle Ann Arbor
Freight VIII Ask for Their Old Places
Special to the Indianapolis Journal
TOLEDO. o.. April eth local division
of the Brotherhood of Locomotive En-
gineers will make q formal demand, or re-
quest of the Lake Shore Company for the
reinstatement of engineers who left its
service on the night of March Is. because
they would not handle Ann Arbor freight
cars. This statement was made this
afternoon by Chairman Watson. of the
Lake Shore grievance committee OF
the Brotherhood. He thought that
the company would not hesi-
tate to grant the request. as
the men had only done what they
were in duty bound to do by the brother
hood. 1t rs a case that the brotherhood has
never dealt with before and they will pro-
coed with considerable caution In making
the request. Should Mr.. Caniif refuse and
be Sustained In his refusal. trouble may be
looked for on the Lake Shore with Its en-
gineers. There was some talk among them
of quitting the service of the Lake Shore
last Monday, when the decisions of the
federal court were delivered. but this was
tent. Tho men have requested of the
brotherhood to be reinstated. and when
the men of one road refuse to handle
another roads property because the
brotherhood is at issue with that company.
the brotherhood is in duty bound to stand
by those mon If they request q relnstate-
ment.

Intellectual Work and Long Life.

Now that so many women are adopting
various forms of intellectual labor rs n
means of livelihood it may not be without
interest to consider the result of severe
brain work on the duration Of life.
Very satisfactory references with regard
to this matter may be drawn from the adj
dress delivered by Lord Kelvin at the ami
versary meeting of the Royal society. His
lordship gave list of the number Of fel-
lows who had died since the last annual
meeting These We're thirty-two in mum
Der, including five foreign members, and the
deaths were unusually numerous, or, as
Lord Kelsin said, a sadly great number.
OF course it is hardly necessary to say there
were no women among them, us ladies arc
not yet admitted to the dignity of the fel
lowship of the Royal society. OF these
thirty-two deceased fellows, the ages OF
thirty were given by his lordship; two only
were under sixty. Both of these We're for
eigu members On the other hand two
had reached the age of ninety namely, Sil
George B. Airy and Sir TranHs q. Knowles
The average length Of life Of the thirty
who were all presumed to be highly distin
g,lished in science or literature, was upward
of seventy -four years--a very satisfactor!
proof that even the highest intellectual Ia
bors are not incompatible with extreme
longevity. All of these gentlemen had, OF
the average, passed the threescore and tel
years usually regarded as the length o
mans life. As the average life of woman
is longer than that of man, there is NJ
knowing to what age they will SURVIVE
when they more generally adopt science
and literary experimentation Queen.

The Stricken Indians positively assert
that within the last five years they have
frequently seen animals which, from the
descriptions given, must be mastodons
While out hunting one of these Indians
came across a series of large tracks, each
the size of the bottom of q salt barrel sunk
deep in the moss. He followed the curious
trail for some miles, finally coming out In
full view of his game. As class the In
dians are the bravest of hunters, but thu
proportions of this new species of game
filed the hunter with terror, and he took
to swift and immediate flight. He describe.
the creature as being as large as a pest
traders store, with great, shining, yellow
ish white tusks and a mouth large enough
to swallow man at u single gulp.
He further says that the animal was un
doubtedly OF the same species as thos,
whose bones and tusks lie all over that sec
ton of the country The fact that othel
hunters have told of seeing these monsters
browsing on the herbs up along the rive
gives certain probability to the story
