Lincoln's "Self1shness."

Mr.. Lincoln once remarked to fellow
passenger on the old time mud wagon
coach ON the corduroy road which ante
dated railroads that all men were
prompted by selfishness in doing good
or evil His fellow passenger was an
tagonizing his position, when they were
passing over corduroy bridge that
spanued a slough. AS they crossed this
bridge and the mud wagon was shaking
like Sucker with chills they espied
an old raZorbacked SOW on the bank of
the slough, making q terrible noise be-
cause her pigs had got into the slough
and were unable 30 get out and in dan
ger of drowning AS the old coach be-
gan to climb the hillside Mr.. Lincoln
called out, Driver, can't you stop just
moment" The driver replied, "If the
other Teller don't object The "other
Teller was no less parsonage
than at that time Colonel z. D. Baker,
the gallant general who gave his life in
defense of Old Glory ar Balls Bluff-did
not "object, whe1s Mr.. Lincoln jumped
out, ran back to the slough and began
to lift the little pigs out of the mud and
water and place them on the bank.
When he returned, Colonel Baker re-
marked, Nov, Abe, where does selfish
ness come in on this little episode?"

thus far is the paper in McClWre's Magazine for
April, giving Mr.. Dana's recollections of Lin,
coin and his Cabinet Living in the closest
official and social relations with Lincoln and
the members of the Cabinet for considerable
time, Mr.. Dana's opportunities for knowing
them were perfect; and he has set forth his
impressions Ofthem with that perfect frankness

A FAMOUS PHOTOGRAPHER.
Mrs. Cameron, Who Was Friend of
Herschel and Tennyson.

Mrs. Cameron, Who Was q Friend OF
Herschel and Tennyson.
In The Century Y. @. Scott O'Con.
nor has an article on "Mrs. Cameron,
Her Friends and Her Photographs. f"
Mr.. O'Connor says:
A feature of her personality which lay
at the root of her great success as a
photographer was her love of all that
was beautiful. "She was always took by
face" as an old woman in Freshwater
who remembers her put it to me.
Charles Turner said the same thing in
poets language when he told her, in the
sonnet he addressed to her on leaving
the isle of Wight after visit, that she
"loved all loneliness. In obedience to
this impulse she invariably stopped and
spoke to any one, however unknown.
whether in great London thoroughfare
or village lane, whose beauty attracted
her. II am Mrs. Cameron, she would
say. Perhaps you have heard of me.
You would oblige me very much if you
would let me photograph you. Will you
let me do SOP" And by such bold and
unconventional means she prevailed on
many, absolute strangers though they
were, to sit to her.
One of her models captured in this
way was young lady come as sum-
mer visitor to Freshwater Mrs. Gamer
on, engrossed at that time in some re-
markably fine studies illustrative of the
"Idylls of the King" was at loss for
q model for Queen Guinevere. But the
advent Of the fair stranger settled all
her doubts. Here was beauty suited to
her purpose. and within the hour she
had carried her OFF to lunch and subse-
quent photography.
The lady proved most kind and in
defatigable model. The village postman
had already been secured for King Ar
thur, and Mrs. Cameron's picture Of
him in this character is one of the best
things in the collection. A friend, going
one day to Dimbola found the young
lady looking rather fatigued
"Oh," she said, with an expressive
gesture, II am SO tired"
Supposing her fatigue was the result
of long walk on a midsummer day,
my friend made some suitable reference
to the matter, but the young lady an
swered with q smile:
''Oh. no. have not been for walk
I have been lying on the floor for the
last two hours, clutching the postman' S
ankle"
Mrs. Cameron, ever kind and IN
selfish, possessed the faculty of bringing
out such qualities in others. In 1879
she died, few months after her last re-
turn to Ceylon. -
"As the day died, her sons wrote to
Lord Tennyson, las the day died ON
Sunday, January the 26th. the sweet,
tender, gracious spirit of our beloved
mother passed away in peace. No
death could have been more calm, more
beautiful, than hers

Tired of Quarreling With Conductors.

1neu Oh Uuarreilng Win SOnuuctorss
Much amusement was afforded the
passengers On a Union station trolley
car in Portland by businessliks passen-
ger, who demanded a receipt for his
fare. "Do you think I'm dishonest
asked the conductor. II don't know, "
replied the eccentric man. "I've never
been on your car when it was crowded.
After making many sarcastic remarks
the conductor signed his name to the
piece of paper handed him by the pas
senger. The receipt was worded as fol-
lows: Received 8 cents for fare from
passenger riding from Elm street to
Union station" On being asked why he
wanted receipt, the man said he was
getting tired quarreling with absent
minded conductors, who frequently
asked for the necessary nickel after it
had been paid He also said that few
nights ago in Boston he had to get two
passengers to prove that he had paid his
fare. AS the man was always placed in
an embarrassing position Oh such occa-
sions. he adopted the receipt method in
order to save further trouble in the fu-
ture. -Kennebec Me. Journal.

Bangor Wing: Dana Brown, the

was Marshall, and it was a first-class
exhibition of the sport he put up. He
made no great work of his playing but
did good job. One good thing about
him is that he will stay in goal and
cover his position, never leaving his
goal unprotected.
The Bath men put up as good a game
as when they were here before, so the
change must be in the improvement of
the Augusta men. They played mag
nificent passing game at critical peri
DDS and they were about always in
front of the ball.
Hadley was in the game in earnest,
and it seemed like his old time play

he has before, and he juggled the ball
away from all of the Shpbuilders
Houghton played fast polo. Gay had
plenty Of work, and in all put up a
good game, capturing many rushes
and doing the greater part of the Gag
ing. The only trouble in the work of
Gay and Houghton, seems to be that
they do not play together.
1t was good to see OHara dance
around in front and block the Bath
men. In some parts of the game it
was impossible for them to pass him,
and he made regular monkeys of them.
He also passed the ball well. One foul
was called upon him in the second peri
cd for holding a man in corner mix
up.
O'Malley had his eye on the ball, and
called forth rounds of applause for his
good work Dawson and Smith put up
good games. Curtis was a race horse
as usual. In the second period he hurt
his head by hitting it against post.
In the next period he was as lively as
ever. The way he stalks down the han
after a ball in the rush, is worth going
miles to see. He doesn't appear to be
going so very fast, but he gets there
all the same.
AT no time during the game did the
Augusta followers worry about the re-
suit. for the ball was rolling Augustus
way.
Umpire Connolly as usual gave excel
lent satisfaction.
