He Saw . Ghostly Image OF Himself In
Looking Glass.
Mr.. Noah Brooks, in his personal rem
iniscences Of Lincoln in The Century,
tells the following strange story:
On the day mentioned Lincoln mar
rated an incident the particulars OF
which wrote out and printed directly
after. These are his own words, as
nearly as they could then be recalled:
ut was just after my election in
1860, when the news had been coming
in thick and fast all day and there had
been a great 'hurrah boys, so that l
was we'll tired out and went home 70
rest, throwing myself down on lounge
in my chamber. Opposite where lay
was q bureau with a swinging glass
upon it, (and here he got up and placed
furniture TO illustrate the positon),
"and looking in that glass l saw myself
reflected nearly at full length, but my
face, / noticed. had two separate and
distinct images, the tip of the nose OF
one being about three inches from the
tin OF the other. ] was little bothered,
perhaps startled, and got up and looked
in the glass, but the illusion vanished.
On lying down again, saw il second
time, palmer if possible than before,
and then noticed that one Of the faces
was a little paler-say five shades
than the other. got up, and the thing
melted away, and went of, and in the
excitement Of the hour forgot all about
it-nearly, but not quite, for the thing
would once in awhile come up and give
me little pang as if something uncom-
Portable had happened.
"When / went home that night, !
told my wife about it, and few days
afterward made the experiment again,
when" with laugh ''sure enough the
thing came again, but / never succeed
cd in bringing the ghost back after
that, though l once tried very indus
triously 20 show il to my wife, who
was somewhat worried about it. She
thought it was sign that l was to De
elected to "A second term of Office, and
that the paleness of one of the faces was
an omen that / should not see life
through the last term. -
This is very remarkable story-a
coincidence we may say--to which
some Significance was given by the cruel
death of the president soon after tho be.
ginning Of his second term. told Mrs.
Lincoln the story and asked her If she
remembered its details. She expressed
surprise that Mr. Lincoln was willing
to say anything about it, as he had up
to that time refrained from mentioning
the incident TO any body, and as she was
firm in her belief that the optical illu-
sion (Which it certainly was) was a
warning l never again referred to the
subject to either the president or his
wife.
Subsequently Lincoln S version of the
story was confirmed by Private Secre-
tary John Hay, who however, was Of
tho opinion that the illusion had been
seen on the day of Lincoln $ first nomi-
nation, aud not. as | have said, on the
day of his first election.

A BIG COMBINE.

The Savannah News mentions the in
corporation there of the Southern Pine
Company Of Georgia, the incorporators
being Eastern and Savannah capitalists
The concern proposes to start with an
actually paid-in capital of 81 $50, 900, and
they ask the right to increase the CAPT
tai from time, in the discretion of the
board Of directors, to sum not to exceed
81 900, 900, but they do not want at any
time to reduce it below the tirstmention-
ed figures. This is the beginning of what
will likely be the biggest lumber and
naval stores organization in the Southern
States. Under the terms of the charter
it will be allowed to manufacture, buy and
sell all kinds of Southern pine lumber
particularly, but they can handle any other
kind they please. They can lease and
own lands, operate saw mills, do a general
merchandise business, a naval stores bust
ness, build and operate tramroads and
railroads, buy, own and charter vessels,
and in fact the charter covers everything
in IA big business of this kind.

CHRISTIAN ENDEAVORERS.

The meeting of the Christian Endeavor
Association, now in session in Boston, is
IA remarkable gathering. As many as six
ty thousand delegates are expected, and
thousands of members of the association
from all over the country will be present
Services are held under enormous tents
on the Common, and meetings have been
in progress from day to day in halls, shops
factories and other places where working
people can be reached.
Mere numbers, of course, do not ALWAYS
convey an adequate idea of the real
strength of any organization, religious or
other Bodies are often recruited from
various motives, and as quickly dissolve as
that have been formed for good purposes,
where members join voluntarily, often
making sacrifice to do so, and from
which no pecuniarv aid or profit in the
way of office can be gained, naturally COM
mend themselves to the public as honest
organizations in which the members work
from sense Of duty. Such Il body, and
the Endeavor Society seems to be one of
this sort, and where properly conducted,
must do great deal of good work. 1t is
an agency of strong moral power wherever
its influence reaches.-Baltimore Ameri-

WHEAT AND OTHER CROPS,

The wheat harvest, which began about
month ago in the southern counties OF
Maryland, says the Baltimore Sun, is still
unfinished in the far western counties OF
the State 1t has been protracted and diff
ficult work by reason of unusually heavy
and frequent rains and of the TAM led con-
ditiOn of the wheat The acreage in the
principal wheat counties was far below the
average, but the yield per acre is reported
to be good except in some places where
damage was done by the fly. The quality
feared, however, that it will not be thrash
ed IN the best condition. Almost the en-
tire crop of the State was in the shock dur
Ing number of heavy transforms, and the
color of the grain may be impaired. The
rains have also interfered with hay making,
and reports from some Of the Eastern
Shore counties show that good deal of
fine hay was damaged. The hay crop of
the State this year is important. There is
a reported shortage in many States, and
farmers are looking for better prices, al
though the present quotations are almost
identical with those of year ago.
The expectations of good prices for the
new crop of wheat look like they will be
disappointed. The quotations Wednesday
were about cents higher only than on the
same day last year. The condition of the
market some time back justified the expec-
tation that the increase in prices over the
last crop would be something like 20 cents
bushel. But it happened as it generally
does. When the farmer has no wheat to
sell prices may advance. But as soon as
the new crop began to arrive it was sud
denly discovered that the supply would
be enormous, and SO prices went down in
slump. 1t must be noted that every
source of information about the new crop
was just as accessible and as correct esti-
mates could have been and doubtless were
formed several weeks ago as now But as
it is well known, the actual condition of
the supply and demand do not regulate
the price of wheat. That is done by the
bulls and bears, and with the exception of
the recent temporary advance the bears
have had it all their own way for long
time
