Programs were plentiful and were
very useful to the audiences.
German by transposition could
fit with known glibness aud auction
qualities.
The Regiments have probably too
much discipline at home, they lack
it in the field.
3 The Stars are short and Sunny
but they batted the ball like
Humpty Dumpty.
Next Saturday the Regiments and
st. Louis teams. A great game.
The audience are easy whom the
old-time favorites Whitney and
Lucas appear as umpires.
The st. Louis boys say little but
they smile. The "Reggies" talk
and scowl.
The wire-netting is grand
(stand) improvement.
The game was not vociferously
applauded, Saturday, but the bleach
ing boards would have livened
things up If the score had been the
other way.
The INDEPENDENT introduces a
useful reference and check on
players in the games, by the time

taken from the delivery Of first ball
over plate until the last man is out
Speed in games is necessary; people
do not go to ball games to doze nor

An Old Engineers Story of an Expert.
ence With President Lincoln.
had enlisted In 1861 at Rochester, N.
Y, and was firing on New York Central
engine when l quit 10 be soldier for
Uncle Sam. Ny enlistment papers show
ing what my occupation had been, was
detailed to run an engine on little road
reaching from Washington down into
Virginia, that was being operated by the
Government as far down as the boys in
blue commanded the situation. At this
time l made round trip each day. leaving
Washington at 10 A. NJ. and arriving in
Washington on my return at P. NJ.
One morning, while l sat in the cab of
my engine reading newspaper to pass
the hour or more that would bring US to
our starting time, became conscious,
without paving any particular attention
10 them, that gentleman and youth
were examining my engine, walking
slowly around it. At length my attention
was attracted by question the boy put to
the man:
'tPapa, can't we get up on it? Ask the
gentleman, please"
Before he could comply with the bows
request l laid aside nv paper and invited
the two to step up. When they did so
noticed that the gentleman was quite tall.
He had to remove his high silk hat and
then stand In ellgnIiy STOPPING position
while in the cab. / noticed from his an
swers to the questions which the boy piled
to him and his explanations of different
parts of the machine that he knew some
thing of the principle upon which locomo-
tives are built
"Oh, papal do wish I could take s.
ride on it"
"Not now, my son. Maybe some day
we may have a chance, then l shall be
glad to let you ride on one OF these great
machines in which you take such an in
terest."
l said: 'If you and your son will take
seat over there on the ireman's box, |
will be glad to give the young man lit
tie ride. l want to pump her up, any
way" He thanked me as he and the boy
seated themselves / set the lever,
opened the throttle slightly, and we
moved slowly down the yard and out to
the Washington end of the Long Bridge
across the Potomac The gentleman ex-
planned to the boy all OF my acts in con-
trolling the machine and its movements
IN a manner tha. showed he knew the
locomotive very we'll.
"Oh, papa, do wish could take long

ride on this engine out in the country,
where 1t goes fast. 1t must be grand to
be carried away by such big strong
horse"
As the engine slowly backed once more
into the sheds the gentleman again
thanked me, and as caught the wistful
look IN the boys face l was prompted to
say:
my run is only three hours out and
three back, sir. l leave here at 10 A. NJ
and return at 4:30 P, NJ. If you are willing
to trust the boy 10 me will take him for
the trip here in front of me on my seat.
The road is safe. We do not go into the
enemy's country. l think l can safely
promise to deliver the young man to you
at this spot at 4 80 this afternoon"
Papa, papa, do let me go! 1t will be SO
nice, and l know this gentleman will see
that no harm comes to me. Do let me go,
papa, and don't tell mamma until l get
Lack. want to surprise her by telling
her all about the trip"
The gentleman could not Withstand MS
sons pleading. He let him go.
Words fail to tell OF the delight OF that
boy as we sped over the hills and valleys
OF Virginia. From the questions he asked
[ soon discovered he was Western boy
from the prairie land.
As the engine puffed and groaned up
long grade on the return trip, suddenly
the boy, who sat between my knees, looked
up into my face and said:
~ have got the very best papa that ever
lived. Do you know my papa?"
"No. my boy, do not; but there was
something so familiar to me in his ap-
pearance that ever since you climbed into
this cab have been trying to think where
| have seen your father before. What is
his name, anywa
"Why, he is Abraham Lincoln" replied
my fellow-traveler.
For moment 1 reeled on my seat in
surprise, but soon it flashed on me that
the tail man who had placed the child in
my charge could be no other than the
President, whom l had only seen as pic
tured in the newspapers.
You may be sure made a doubly care.
full run into Washington when l found
that Tad Lincoln, son of the President,
was the little guest had in my cab.
Another man, suppose White House
servant, met the train on its arrival and
took the boy away.
The next and last time | saw Abraham
Lincoln after he intrusted ME with his
boy for six hours ride in Virginia was
when he lay in state in Washington be-
fore the sad funeral cortege started for
the prairies of Illinois TO lay the martyred
President to rest at Spring gfeld.-J. 81.
