The author of the paper said
that in 1890 he purchased Io4 acres
of land that was industriOusly
producing elders and briers A
portion was cleaned up and planted
in berries. In 1902 the gross re-
ceipts were s2,45I, and the net re-
ceipts, after all labor and super

IS per cent. upon capital invested
in farm, stock and implements,

food for the stock. In 1903 the
net receipts amounted to 23a per
cent. on the investment.
The owner of the land says the

Cleveland approves the project. In.

sition from any source. Chief Justice
Fuller, of the supreme court, has al
ways been an ardent admirer of Lin
coin, and he is very much in earnest
about the purchase of the property on
Tenth street. Talking with friend
on the subject recently, in street car,
Justice Fuller said: 81 have no doubt
that the appropriation will be made in
the sundry civil bill. That is the in

The Lincoln museum Is only one
block from Pennsylvania avenue, that
thronged and busy thoroughfare of
the national capital. It is midway
between the treasury and interior de-
partments- The street is a quiet one,
for there IS no business transacted
there, and the residences gre few.
Above the front door there is marble
slab with an inscription concerning
Lincoln's death. The building is ac-
cessible from any part of the city, be-
cause all of the street-car lines cross
Tenth street, to the north or south of
the locality. The semi-spiral iron
staircase which leads from the pave
ment to the front door bears to the
portals daily some American pilgrims
to this Mecca of the republic. Stand
ing in that door they may look
across the narrow street upon the
old theater, and over the course
traversed by those who bore the
body of the stricken chief magis-
trate. Through the narrow hallway
to the historic back room the visitors
first are shown. After viewing, with
uncovered head, the hallowed spot, the
visitors go from room to room, looking
Mt the collected relics, and some OF
them write notes in their diaries to re-
mind them of things they have seen
there.
The work of the Memorial association

Secretary Carlisle Takes the Amended
Bill In Hand.

Washington, April, 23.-It is learned
that Secretary Carlisle has now taken the
amended tariff bill in hand, and is endeav-
oring, in conjunction with Senator Jones,
of Arkansas, chairman of the sub-com-
mittee, to straighten out some of the en-
tanglements with which the Senate has
surrounded the bill, so as to secure it
practically the united support of the
democratic senator's. Secretary Car
Isle and Senator Jones began the
consideration of the bill at the
treasury department this afternoon, TAX
ing up the measure by paragraphs. From
Secretary Carlisles intimate knowledge
of tariff matters, fortified BY his practi-
cal acquaintance with the working of the
existing law gained since his acceptance
Of the treasury portfolio, much is ex-
pected in the way of harmouizing con-
ficting interests and perlecting the bill.
Senator German was potential in induc-
ing Secretary Carlisle to take the matter
