:
The last time Congressman Bailey Of
Texas, was in New York, he iad business
on lower Broadway. AS he w ent down on
a cable car the conductor SHOUTED out
Houston" with the pronunciation given
to that name in these parts. q alley looked
at the lamp post
You mean Hooston.i said Bailey
don't you?' The conductor without look
ing at him said: I know my nusiness.''
If part of your business Is to call out
the streets properly" said l3ailey QUIETLY
then you don't know it. The street We
just passed is not called Ho erston.' as yoy
gave it, but .Hooston, for Gtgn Sam Hous-
ton, the iberator of Texas If you ever
went to Texas and talked about sam
.Howston.' you'd be lucky ter escape lynch
ing"
q If went to Texas said the conductor
who was born on Sixth ave enue, and who
never was farther away fro IN the city than
Coney Island. I'D deserves anything thev
gave me-. Bailey said nothing for he did
not know the answer to t1 is discourteous
estion.--New York Joi rnel

LINcoLN,s BAT.


a white stovepipe hat, somewhat worn
and soiltsd, but valuable as once having
been worn by President Lincoln. was the
subject Of contention in replevin suit in
the office Of Justice s. r. Church, Of this
city E4aths "Entailed Hat" never
aroused more tcombativeness in the dispo-
sition Of a man than does this relic OF the
martyr,fd president. Not only was it the
subjects of a suit but il came near leading
to violent action on the part Of its posses
sor, Mr.. Osborn Fl. Oldroyd, who main
tains the Lincoln relic collection on Tenth
street, where the victim of Booth brea thed
his las,t
It Isl not certain whether this particular
hat Was worn by the president the night
that he was assassinated, or whether it
was one of the old head coverings, kept by
him i'm remembrance of the days when he
first had political aspirations. 1t is hat
that the loudest mouthed political cham
pion would taboo.
THE hat in question was once the prop
erty' of DR.. Phineas d. Gurley to whom
1t was given by Mrs. Lincoln. In some
wa.Y it came into the possession of the gov
ern ment for llse at one of its expositions.
1t WAS for a long time on exhibition in the
patent office. Then in some manner un-
knowni 1t fell into the possession Of Osborn
III. Oldroyd, whose house on Tenth street
things in the house Mr.. Oldroyd priced the
hat most highly
If he had not considered it profane act
h would doubtless have worn the hat
h fmself, SO strongly was he attached to it.
Even the soiled marks were to him prec-
iOus. He was therefore astonished and
E'ained when United States Constable
Siaulter entered the museum this morning,
sAnd armed with a writ from Justice
Church, proceeded to take possession of
the hat.
For while a miniature war seemed Inn
xninent. The constable had one end of the
hat in his hand and Mr.. Oldroyd had the;
other. They pulled until it was apparent
that further pulling would leave only
pieces. The constable explained. Mr. Old
lroyd demonstrated and threatened, but
finally succunbed and let Mr.. Saulter
have the hat. Mr.. Saulter explained that
James 0. Adams and Emma H Adams,
executors of the estate of DR.. Gurley,
claimed to be entitled to the possession of
the hat, and had filed suit against Mr.
Oldroyd for its recovery. They assert that
Dr. Gurley did not give it to the govern
ment, but loaned it. with the understand
ing that when the government had fin
ished with the relic it should be returned
to DIR. Gurley or his heirs, instead of to a
private exhibitor
AS the parties to this case are wealthy.
long and costly litigation is likely over
this treasured relic.--Buffalo Express.

STORIES or LINCOLN
Some New Ones That Are Not dener-
aIIy Known.


Mr.. Lincoln. says a writer in the Bur-
iington Hawkeye. was one of the rare
takers who could always point a moral
With an adorning tale taken out of his own
experience. Everybody has experience If
ne only knows 1t. Most Of us are so in the
habit of taking in wisdom and fun through
the printed page or the story as another
man tells il that wen lack the capacity to
see II for ourselves.
The story-teller is tho man who finds his
own material An old Southern politician
| was moralizing thus few nights ago and
eufogizing the man the South used TO dis
like:
When Lincoln first came to Washing
ton went TO see him so prejudiced against
him beforehand that NO man with less
genius could have overcome it. / left that
first interview his friend No man ever
came under the charm Of Lincoln's per-
sonality without respecting him, and if al
lowed, loving him
One day after. we had become fairly
good friends, I tod him of my early preju-
dice.
Mr.. Lincoln said heard every
mean thing on earth about you except one.
never heard that you were too fond Of
the pleasures ofslife.' Mr.. Lincoln sat for
q moment stroking his long cheek thought
fully. and then he drawled out in his pecu-
liar Western voice:
That reminds me of something boy
old.
Once in a while my mother used to get
some sorghunp and some ginger and mix
US UP batch Of gingerbread. 1t wasn't
OFTEN, and it vgas our biggest treat.
One day Elsmelled it and came into the
house TO get my share while it was hot. /
found she had baked me three gingerbread
men, and took them out under hickory
tree to eat them
There wals a family near us that was a
little poorer than we were, and their boy
came along ais / sat down
man
II gave him one. He crammed it into
his mouth at two bites, and looked at me
while bit The legs from my first one
Abe,"s he said, gimme that Other
one
wanted it. but gave 1t to him, and
as it followed the first one I said:
You seem to like gingerbread?"
ABE he said, earnestly, 81 don't
s'pose there's anybody on this earth likes
gingerbread as well as do" and, drawing
a sigh th;tt brought up crumbs, II don't
S pose there's anybody gets less of it, II
And the: old politician said Mr.. Lincoln
looked as though the subject was ended.

A very elaborate production of "Vir-
ginius" is announced for the coming at
traction at this house, with the well-known
tragedian Edmund Collier in the title role.
OF Golfers personation critic of the
day remarks: at is a noble and COM
plete piece of aeting-full of high passion,
deep and delicate pathos, intense energy
both of conception and execution, and the
whole rounded off by flushed taste and
discrimination" The play follows closely
the history, except as to the manner of
Appius' death.
In brief follows the main incidents of
the play: Virginia, a free-born Roman
