ARCH MAGAZINE S.

In MoClure's Magazine for March is
brought to light a speech of 1887 by Abra-
ham Lincoln, which the b,ographers until
now seemingly have known nothing of.
though IL contains passages still of the
highest interest For example. of politi-
clans. Lincoln says: "A set OF men who
have interests aside from the interests of
the people, and who, to say the most of
them, are, taken as a mass, at least one
long step removed from honest men. 1
say this with the greater freedom be-
cause, being a politician myself, none can
regard IL as personal" There is also
an amusingly judicious love proposal of
Lincoln's and some lively "reminiscences
of him as the leader in a successful ma
neuver to establish the state capital at
Springfield, and as a young lawyer in
that smart, new town. The pictures are
numerous and include four portraits of
Lincoln.

FUNERAL OF GEoRGE a. BUr1E1

To be Held This Afternoon at Trinity
Church-Particulars of His Death in
South Carolina While En- Route for
Home.
The funeral of George A. Butler, the
late deceased president of the National
Tradesmen's bank, will take place at
$3.50 o'clock this afternoon from Trinity
church.
Information in regard to the particu-
lars of Mr.. Buffers death had been re-
ceived by Mr.. Fields, cashier of the
bank, from John Fl. Averill receiver
OF the P. r. and A. railroad on which
road Mr.. Butler was travelling when
he died. According to this information
the porter of Mr.. Buffers car says that
he was apparently well when the train
left Jacksonville, but shortly afterwards
complained of feeling i'll and continued
to grow worse until just before reach
ing Charleston. A telegram was sent
ahead to that city requesting that a
physician be on hand when the train ar
rived. DR.. B. r. Ward past assistant
surgeon of the United States navy, re-
sponded and boarded the train when
it reached Charleston. AT Mr. Buffers
request the porter had previously made
up his bed and was lying down when
the physician arrived. DR.. Ward found
him unconscious and at once bandaged
his head and tried to restore him, but
1t was of no use as Mr. Butler was al
ready beyond the reach of medical aid
DIR. Ward remained on the train and a
half hour after coming aboard found
that Mr.. Butler had breathed his last.
This occurred when the train had just
left place by the name of Lanes in
South Carolina, near Florence. When
the train reached Florence DIR. 3. G.
Griggs, a physician of that place. came
aboard and gave certificate of death.
The indications led the physicians to
ascribe the cause of death to apoplexy.
Mr.. Buffers effects were forwarded to
his friends in this city.

NIGHT ON SATURDAY NIGHT.

Restaurants and Clubs as Dry as Saloons
In Brooklyn-Union League Bar in New
York Tightly Closen-Many Towns Wont
Dry for the First Time in Years.
Brooklyn, March 29.-After midnight
last night the Raines liquor law was
in force in Brooklyn. The mandate had
gone forth from Police Commissioner

die 'on of the police were notified to
comply with it's provisions to-day. That
they did so was apparent everywhere
Never in its history as a city has
Brooklyn experienced such dry Sun
day. The restaurants and clubs were
just as dry as the saloons.
Police Superintendent McKelvey said
tonight that out of over 1000 saloons
only 273 violations of the law We're re-
ported and two arrests made.
New York, March 29.-The last Sun
day here under the old excise law pass
ed peacefully. The saloonkeepers had
begun to take strlctest precautions in
guarding their licenses and the new
era seemed to have dawned already,
when at night the police reports Show
ed that only eleven excise arrests had
been made throughout the city. This
was the lowest number of arrests made
in a single Sunday since the excise law
has been enforced by the police depart
| ment.
At the Union League club the bar
was closed and the excise law was oh :
served as strictly as if the highest le-
| gal authority had declared that the
Raines bill operated the instant Gov
ernor Morton's signature was attached
to the measure. Advices received here
state that the Raines bill was enforced
and the saloons were generally closed
to-day in Mount Vernon, White Plains,
! Utica, Syracuse, Batavia and Dams

the first dry Sunday in years. No at
| tempt was made to enforce the Raines
law to-day in Albany. Troy, Saratoga,
