LincOln's Way.

Abraham Lincoln was the great war
president of the United States.
His place in history stands highest
ON the list of wise and fearless leaders.
He proved his love Of liberty by his
acts and he gave his life for his country.
And yet, near the end of the war be-
tween the states. Lincoln addressed
General Grant as follows:
Executive Marion, Washington,
Jan. 10, 1866. Lieutenant General
Grant; Please read and answer this
letter as though / were not president,
but only friend. Ny son, now in his
twenty second year, having graduated
at Harvard, wishes to see something Of
the war before it ends.
do not wish to put him in the ranks
nor yet to give him a commission, to
which those who have already served
long are better entitled and better
qualified to hold. Gould he, without
embarrassment to you or determine to
the service, 60 into your military
family with some nominal rank, and
not the public furnishing his necessary
means?
If no, say SO without the least hesita-
ton, because | am as anxious and as
deeply interested that you shall not be
encountered as yoN can be yourself.
Yours truly,
A. LINCOLN.

SPANISH HONOR.

When Admiral Cervera sent a mes
senger to Admiral Sampson to express
his admiration of Lieutenant Hobson
and those with him on the Merrimac
and to assure Admiral Sampson that
the heroes We're alive and safe there
was quite an outburst of appreciation
of Spanish honor. But when the cap
tives were put in the line of fire of the
United States warships Spanish honor
was quoted much lower And now
that the Spanish government has re-
fused to exchange the prisoners, and
Blanco has notified the blockading fleet
that hereafter he will recognize no flag
of truce, adding that every vessel
within six miles range will be fired
upon, whether flying the stars and
stripes or a white flag, the old doubt
about Spanish honor resumes opera
lions with full force.
The Spaniards are certainly exasper-
ating foes. But they will have to set
tie for all their antics when the set
tling-day comes. Then they may wish
they had been little more reasonable
and civilized about some things.

THE rYrELLIGENr spANrARDs.

One spaniard has walked up and he
Is trying to wake the others up. He Is
Senior ri y Margall, and he says in his
paper, the New Regime; The country
has been deceived, for heretofore the
United States have been represented to
be merely nation of merchants, unfit
for war, incapable Of standing a long
struggle, lacking navy and imbued
only with a greed for gold. 1t was con-
cealed from us that this same nation
had fought two wars with Great Brit
ain, one with Mexico and also the civil
war in 1861, which gave liberty to the
slaves. The power and strength Of that
nation have been hidden from our peo-
pie, as we'll as our own weakness. Our
possessions are now scattered all over
the world. We possess only badly-de-
Tended Notifications, poor navy and a
scarcity of gold.
What's the use Of fighting such peo-
pie as the Spaniards? They wont know
that we have licked them until about
hundred years after the war Is over.

FASHION NOTES.
An Old Style Revived.

Peg Wellington hats of tulle, made
very big, with brims dropping fore and
aft and with baggy crowns, are a
change from the inevitable down-tip-
ped tulle rolled hat of the moment.
These take one back to the days of
Marie Antoinette, or to those of us who
know out theater better than our his
tory, to plays of that period. They are
becoming to everyone, and the present
style of putting the hair over the ears
suits such hat charmingly. 1t is
made of black, white, gray or pale yell
low tulle. The bunchy crown is bound

SOME pRAcr1cA1 EDUCATION.

An interesting move has been made
by the board of education of Atlanta
1t has decided that the Spanish Ian
guage should be taught in the public
high school for boys in that city. This
action was not taken in view of the
possibility that there may be postmas-
terships, etc, for the United States to
fill in Cuba, the Philippines and Spain.
The reasons assigned for making
Spanish part of the regular course of
study in the school are OF thorough
ly practical character The United
States is seeking to develop closer COM
mercial relations with the countries of
Central and South America, which, be-
ing once Spanish possessions, have in
a large degree retained the language
since they achieved independence and
threw off the yoke of Spain. Although
the trade of these countries should be
mainly with the United States, Euro

part of it, particularly Great Britain,
which has great financial interests in
Central and South America. The In
ternational American bank, which the
Senate last week voted to charter, is
designed to furnish better financial IA
cilities to the countries to the south Of
us and to compete with the British
banking institutions now operating
successfully there. Moreover, the Pan
American Union, which is one of the
possibilities of the future, may bring
our southern neighbours much nearer to
us and open new fields of enterprise to
American manufacturers and business
men. Young men who are preparing
themselves for commercial pursuits
will therefore find practical knowl-
edge Of the Spanish language very USE
| full to them and, indeed indispensable
| If their energies are directed toward
| tn expansion of our trade with South
and Central America.
