The following IS - story of Abraham
Lincoln which, if it is not tr're-as it
probably is rot-is ut least entitled to u
place in legendary literature: lincoln
was once riding along lonely road
when an i'll looking man, who held a
cooked revolver, suddenly faced him.
What do you want, my friend:"
Lincoln asked.
u am going to shoot you," answered
tho MIN.
Well" said Lincoln, 'I don t mind
being killed, bat should like 10 know
your reasons -
Il once vowed" said the man, that
if ever met a man hcmclier than am
I would shoot him
Lincoln looked critically at his assail-
ant for minute, and thcn said:
We'll, If l am ANY homelier than you
are, then for phys sake shoor!'

A HISTORICAL MYTH.
Tho Story Of General Jackson's Cotton Bale
BrcastUorks . Pleasing Fiction.

There are few of the schoolboys OF
several generations preceding the pres
ent who do not remember being taught
that General jackson won the battle OF
New Orleans by throwing up breast
work of cotton bales and meeting tho
British assault behind them.
A dramatic account Of this was i'll all
the school histories and several others,
and the novelty of the affair appealed
wildly to the imagination. Tho cold
facts Of later history prove this all to
have been fiction. Henry Adams, i'll his
history of Madison's administration, de-
scribes the battle of New Orleans and
mentions no such feature. McMaster,
in his latest volume, refers to the story
in a note only to say that there were two
or three cotton bales used in one place,
and they We're either set on fire or
knocked out at once.
Jackson's s line of brcGj, works was Of
earth irregularly thrown up ard Of vary
ing height along its length. The trained
sharpshooters of the west did great work
as narEsmen behind it and so CALLED
the heavily laden British troops that they
had no alternative bat to be shot or re-
treat before the American line.
The schoolbook story used 70 be that
the Americans lost six killed and seven
wounded. McMaster places the figures
of killed and wounded at 20. The Brit
ish, it seems, We're not all repulsed ac-
cortiirg to the popular story. The right
lire of the American troops was driven
in, and the British left advanced Il mile
in the rear Of jackson on the way TO
New Orleans.
Ee was really hanked by this success,
but the terrific slaughter lie inflicted up
on the British III tiie center, involving
the death cf the first and second generals
i'll command, completely iispirited them
and induced Tie return Of that wing OF
their army that was on the way to the

Interesting Facts Not Generally Known
Concerning an article of Utiiity--Assist-
ance Rendered the Industry by the Gov
ernncnt's Fish Commission.
Ever since the sponge fisheries of the
Bahamas and the gulf coast of Florida
showed signs of becoming exhausted CT
forts have been made TO cultivate sponges
on farms or artificial beds, and more re-
Gently science has tried to imitae the
genuine article by converting the soft
fiber Of the cocOanut leaves and shells
into sponges Of commercial value.
Sponge farming is now a successful in
dustry, and hundreds of acres i'll the gulf
of Mexico along the Florida coast Gre
planted with sponge cuttings and
seeds The work is not dissimilar in
many respects to oyster culture. The
young sponges are planted in water
along the coast varying from one to five
fathoms in depth.
A few years ago the fish commits
sioners had their attention called to the
sponge fisheries off the Florida coast.
and after finding that the beds We're be-
ing rapidly depleted of the best stock
an examination of the fisheries was made
to ascertain some way of preserving
them. The specimens of sponge taken to
Washington in the autumn of the year
were found to be reproductive if the
proper conditions We're supplied. The
sponges in the autumn We're found to de-
velop masses of protoplasm or spores,
which in the spring of the year We're lib
Grated. These spores contained the small
reproductive particles from which the
sponges developed Some of the sponges
experimental with did not reproduce
their kind at all, and it was found that
in order TO cultivate the sponges it was
necessary to plant sponges that pro-
duced certain cells that contained the
ova or egg and others that represented
spermatozoa-
A small sponge farm was established
at Washington, and then others along
the Florida coast as experiments. These

A GOOD ADVERTISEMENT FOR vIR-
GINA

We take from the Washington Post
the following account OF what MIR r. Il.
Chaffin. of this city said at the meeting
of the National Dairy Congress, at VIII
lard's Hotel, in Washington city, on We'd
nesday last:
The first paper of the day was by Mr..
r. Il. Chaffin. Of Richmond, Va, one OF
the largest dairymen in the State. Mr..
Chaffin gave a somewhat detailed state
mcnt Of the work on his farm, and set
forth the merits of Virginia as farming
and dairy State His own farm, within
three miles Of Richmond, he said, was
product of only the last twelve years
work. Though born farmer, he had not
started in the dairy business until long
after the war, and then commenced with
two cows. The herd and the farm had
grown, he said. till there were now 800
head of stock, including mules and horses,
on the place, and he had a wholesale bust
ness that was good the year round.
Mr.. Chahin gave the following figures
concerning the wholesale price of milk
i'm the State. Said he: II sell milk at
wholesale. getting Is cents a gallon Tor
six months. for 800 gallons of milk per
day, 10 cents a gallon for my surplus for
six months, and T. cents per gallon for
81
day. Labor is cheap in the South. our
PEOPLE welcome our northern and western
friends to come and make their home
with us. regardless of politics or reli-
gon. With US the farmer can work prac-
ticaily twelve months in the year without
being either burned up in summer or fro
zen to death in winter"
Good for MIR. Chaffin. That is the way
to advertise Virginia and bring capital
here to develop her. But all the capital
that Mr.. Chafin and others like him could
bring to us would be turned away If IL
was thought by the new corners that
cheating in cur elections prevailed. as
that is one thing which a desirable set
tier Will not endure. You might as we'll
