Elkes Did Break The Record.

Jacksonville, Fla Marea l3.-At
the Villa Maynard met last Wednes-
day Of the Jacksonville wheelmen,
Harry Elkes, of Saratoga, N. Y,
rode ten miles in competition in a.
5S. On the strength of this perform
ance it was claimed that Elkes had
lowered the worlds amateur record
for 10 miles in competition. This
claim was, however, subsequently
denied, telegram being received
here that the distance had been made
in less time than 24.5S. This ASSET
ton, however, is not true, for Char
man Gideon, of the League ofAmeri-
can Wheelmen racing board, tele-
graphs to. day that the best time for
10 miles prior to Elkes's performance
was 25 32 Elkes, therefore, holds
the worlds amateur championship
for 10 miles in competition. Elkes's
performance was the more noticeable
because the racers were not paced
for nearly two miles of the distance.

Calhoun and Lincoln.

Fror, The State.
The article which Mr.. D. j Kuotts
published in the Lexington Dispatch
;; entitled The Handwriting of God 10
the Government of Man. part of
which you produced 10 your paper of
the 9Th inst, referring to the birth OF
Abraham Lincoln. is calculated to mis-
represent the reading public concerning
that important historical fact. Mr..
Knots is responsible for the statement
that Abraham Lincoln was the illeglti-
mate son of John C. Calhoun. lie
says that Lipcoln's mother was "born
aud raised few miles from Mr.. Cal.
houn's home.'' % aud With poor taste and
less truth continues, poor Nancy
Hanks thus leaves her native land and
naks her home among strangers, with
strong convictions uppermost in her
troubled mind Soon afterwards she
married poor man 10 her western
home whose name was Lincoln. He
who gave the name of this offspring
was not bis father"
Mr.. Knotts refrains from informing
the public where he got this wonderful
fund of information aud cities no
authority whatever. but seemingly has
invented these unheard-of statements
.sto point moral, or adorn tale -
have taken the trouble to look up
the history Of Lincoln's mother and
give 10 less au authority than Dr..
Cathcart, the eminent compiler of the
Baptist Encyclopedias, volume II, page
704. Dr.. Cathcart says: "Mrs Nancy
Hanks Lincoln. the mother of Abraham
Lincoln, was born in Virginia, and
when quite young removed to Kentucky
with some members Of her family lo
1906 she married Thomas Lincoln OF
Hadgenville, Hardin county, Kentucky
In this settlement Abraham Lincoln,
afterwards President of the United
States, was bore, February IL. 1909"
Thus we see Nancy Hanks was not
"boru and raised few miles from Mr..
Calhoun homo," but 10 Virginia, and
that Abraham was born more than TWO
years after her marriage with Thomas
Lincoln.
Carhcart futher says: "Mrs Nancy
Hanks Lncon was woman Of rare
qualities Of mind and heart, and though
she died in 1918, when her son was
only nine years old. she left impress
sious upon him which could never be
effaced, aud which directed his whole
future movements. "All that am on
earth, I" said President Lincoln to Rev.
A. D. Gillette, then Of Washington city,
Il owe to my Baptist mother. Mrs.
Liucoln lived aod died unknown beyond
very limited circle, bat her light has
been carried over the world By the fame
of her illustr;ous son.
Frow the facts as they appear, Mr..
Knotts hes either Intentionally or
through ignorance. slandered the mem.
cries Of Christian woman, Carolina's
uoblest 500 and the greatest President
since the days Of Washington.

MR.. MosELEy DOING QUITE WELL.
One of His Legs Reamputnted-His
Early Recovery Now Expected.

Drs. Hunter and Stuart Mcclure on
Wednesday last reamputated the right leg
of Mr.. w. Grandson Moseley, and he is
now doing quite well.
II will be remembered that last No
vember both of Mr. Moseley's feet were
crushed off on the Richmond, Fredericks-
burg and Potomac road. near Elba Sta
ton, and both were then amputated. The
right leg failed to heal. and hence the
second amputation became necessary.
The left leg had long ago healed perfectly,
and an artificial foot and ankle had been
fitted to II. For some time Mr.. Moseley
had been able to sit up In an invalid chair
and receive his friends.
Nothing could surpass the superb cour-
age with which he surrendered himself
to the terrible ordeal OF a second amputa-
ton. He knew that owing 10 his weak
condition the doctors feared to put him
entirely under the influence of chloroform,
but. Notwithstanding this, when every
thing was ready he promptly. and with
perfect calmness rolled his chair to the
bed, unstrapped his artificial foot, and
otherwise assisted in preparing himself
for the operation. This was perfectly
successful, and his friends have every
reason to hope and believe that in a
comparatively short time he will be able
TO again sit up in his chair Fortunately,
both OF his knees are saved, and as soon
as the stump is healed, an artificial leg
will be attached TO this. thus enabling
him to walk without the aid Of crutches.
