The following is the prize story on Abra-
ham Lincoln, written bv Fred Scribner
Grade nine, Ellensburg school,
ABRAHAM LINCOLN.
Abraham Lincoln was born in a
log cabin in Hardin county, Ken
lucky, Feb. 10, 1909. When he
had reached his eight year his
father removed to the back woods
of Indiana. Here Lincoln was
employed in the various tasks
which are always connected with
the founding of a home in wild
and comparatively uncivilized
country. Few educational advant-
ages were afforded him in his
frontier home but he was taught to
read and write by his mother.
When Lincoln was nine years of
age his mother died, but her influ-
ence was lasting and her teachings
were never forgotten by the boy she
had so faithfully tried to instruct
Alright.
When Lincoln was nineteen, he
worked on fat-boat going to New
Orleans. When he returned his
father moved to Illinois. Lincoln,
now of age, again went to New Or
leans, afterwards acting in the ca
pacity of clerk and later practicing
surveying. In 1882 he was chosen
captain of a company and served
for time in the Black Hawk war.
He now studied law under fgreat
difficulties and was admitted to the
bar in 1886. Two years before he
was elected to the Illinois legislat-
ure and was reelected for three
successive terms. In Congress, to
which he was elected in 1916, he
attracted great attention by the
power and eloqueDce of his debates
with Stephen A. Douglas on the
"Repeal of the Missouri Compro-
mise"
On Nov. 6, 1850, Lincoln was
elected president. The war-cloud
which had lowered so long over the
land now burst in all it's fury.
During this crucial period Pres.
Lincoln managed the affairs of the
government with wonderful tact
and prudence. On Sept. 30, 1852,
he issued the Emancipation Procla-
nation, which won for him the
love and respect of the colored peo-
pie and the admiration of the
civilized world. Again Lincoln
was elected to the presidency in
Nov. 1864. At length the terrible
war drew to a close.

The aalitfia 4arY Eagle T1mrsdaY gormmg gau g. 1898

What our war board is not forgetting
is that, having llned Sampson and Schley
away from Cuba and Key West, leaving
the coast of the United States exposed,
he suddenly drop his Golfers. start his
ships under forced dra-ught, reach some
city. say New York or Boston, in four or
five days, and be able to do considerable
damage or collect some large indemnity
as the price OF abstention from damage,
and then have coal enough left to carry
him back to Spain. I do not say this TO
create alarm. There have been intima-
lions from the Spanish press TO justify
the belief that some such enterprise is
contemplated
Very little Importance is now attached
10 the report that the Spanish fleet is
lurking for the Oregon and her consorts,
the Marietta and the Buffalo. The admin
istration was informed that these vessels
were near Pernambuco. If that report,
which was given out by a number of the
cabinet, be correct, the Oregon and the
ships with her have yet 1,s00 miles to sail
before they will be off Martinique. Pro-
ceeding at the pace at which the three
vessels have been travelling, ii may be
week before the Spanish feet will be able
to meet them

Saturday They will be CHARTERED on the

They will remain aboard these vessels
until wanted for the auxiliary cruisers,
under command of Admiral Erben, TO be

Cleveland, O., May 1s.-Lhutsnant Com
mander Hawley, the naval recruiting Of
ficer. has been advised by the navy de-
partment that it could not take the Ohio
naval reserves as a body or any single
division of them as such. Lieutenant
Hawley was instructed to go to Chicago
with his recruiting STAFF.
Lieutenant Commander Hawley said
that he had been informed that the Hi
nois were anxious TO enlist individually.
They decided that if they could not go in
a body they would gladly go separately.
he was told, and he expected to get lot
of men for the navy from the Chicago
reserves.
As the Ohio men refused to enlist indi-
vidually, the navy department must now
seek elsewhere for its 200 emergency men
that it expected to get from the reserves
of Ohio.

KANSAS MEN WANT THINGS

Washington, May 1S.-The rush'fOr army
and navy appointments was on again to-
day. The long lists of nominations ap-
parently only whet the appetite for these
offices and the pressing of candidates for
them is the mission OF the majority OF
those who go to see the president now
adays. Today senators and representa-
ives were slow in arriving at the White
House but before the day was over they
thronged the building.
Senator Baker of Kansas was the first
who came TO talk with the president to-
day, and while he was there, others be-
gan gathering in the ante room. Repre-
sentative Curtis of Kansas. who has been
interchangeable OF late in urging the claims
Of Kansas to army billets, and Represent
alive Curtis of Iowa, who also wants
an Iowan given an important appoint
ment, were both on hand early.
Secretary of State Day, who left his
desk early after looking up some official
matters in another branch of the govern
ment. was with the president in close con-
sultation. bringing large batch of Off
cial papers with him.

SOME NAVAL MEMS THEORIES

New York. May H.-A special to the
Times from Washington says:
Every exertion has been made TO the
navy department TO inform Admiral
Sampson of the location 81 the Spanish
squadron, and every possible precauuon
has been taken. it is believed, to prevent
information about the movements of the
United States fleet from falling into the
hands of the Spanish. That it is possible
absolutely TO prevent such information
from getting into the possession of the
Spanish is doubted for there are many
ways of getting messages to Spain and
then to the shores of the Caribbean sea
besides SEEDING them to New York or 10
Boston, to be transmitted thence by cable.
The restrictions imposed by the United
States, however, make communication
more difficult than it would be otherwise.
only few naval officers could be
found who dared TO talk about the affairs
in which every body is interested. One
of these officers, a man of excellent judg-
ment on war matters, expressed the opin-
ion that the discovery OF the order to
put the monitors on guard before Havana
pointed very clearly to the determination
Of the secretary Of the navy and the war
board TO relieve the fleet of Admiral
Sampson Of the slowest vessels so as TO
enable him TO move with greater rapidity
in search OF Admiral Cervera and his
ships For the same reason Commodore
Schley. it is assumed. will not be detained

DAILY NAVAL BULLETIN

Washington, May 1S-The news bulletin
issued by the navy department today con-
tanned the following items:
Orders have been issued by the depart
ment forbidding the presence Of Sylvester
Scovil, a newspaper correspondent, aboard
vessels of the navy or at any naval sta
ton, on account of his conduct in stow
ing himself away on board the tug Uncas
on the recent visit of that vessel to Ha
vana, he having been refused permission
to go as a passenger.
Negotiations are in progress for the
exchange of Thrau and Jones. newspaper
correspondents, for Colonel Cortijo and
Military Surgeon Julian, now prisoners
of war in the United States.
1.-The Adula, with refugees from Glen
fuegos, left that port May II for Kingston.
The department also made public an
abstract of the mail report of the cables
in Cienfuegos bay last Wednesday.
1.-The main facts had been set out in the
report already made in telegraph but a
few new ard interesting details are in
cluded in the abstract, which is as fol-
lows:
cat the recent action off Cienfuegos.
Lieutenant Switzerland commanded the
Eagle; Lieutenant Winslow the Neam
launches and sailing launches from the
Nashville and Marblehead, with Lieuten-
ant A. z. Anderson second in command
There were four boats used, and their or
ders were to drag for and cut the cables
off Cienfuegos under the protection of the
guns of the Nashville and Marblehead.
The four launches then dragged for and
succeeded in cutting the cables. The cable
house was destroyed by the guns. A
small inshore cable was found but an
infantry force, with a Maxim gun at
distance of only 80 yards kept up such a
hot fire as to keep this cable from being
grappled, particularly as the enemy had
retreated into the gullies and ravfnes,
where they could no longer be reached
by the fire from the ships The enemy
the lighthouse and opened fire on the
boats from that point, the ships opened
fire upon the light house and destroyed it.
Lieutenant Winslow was wounded in the
hand. PaPtrick Reagan, private marine,
was killed. Ernest Suntzenich, appren-
tice, has Since died. Six other men were
wounded. 1 can not speak in too high
praise of ojcers and men engaged in the
four boats in cutting the cables. Their
work was performed with the utmost
GOODNESS and intrepidity under the most
trying circumstances, and I shall later
have the honor to call special attention
to their conduct.

All this was done by a lonely shell which
struck the Iowa
One shell exploded on the New York,
killed man, wounded four others, shat
tered two searchlights, splintered a cutter,
tore three holes in a ventilator and broke
small davit arm. Pieces of this shell
were gathered up for souvenirs but there
were not enough pieces to go around. The
New York was hit only once.
When the dispatch boat of the Asso-
ciated Press left the vicinity of San Juan
for the island of St. Thomas with the
fleet was preparing to bury the dead. In
addition to the man killed on board the
New York, a gunner's mate on board the
monitor Amphritrite died from the effects
of the heat.
OF the New York's four wounded men
only two were seriously enough injured
to call for their transfer to the hospital
ship Solace, which subsequently joined
the fleet.
The New York fired go shots, It is said,
during the bombardment.
The cable operator at San Juan cabled
to the operator at st. Thomas early on
the morning of the 18th, announcing that a
vigorous bombardment OF the capital was
in progress, adding that he was going to
take to the woods. 1t is considered prob
able that most of the inhabitants followed
his example and fed from the city soon
after they were awakened by the Iowa's
first broadsde.
The only war vessel of a foreign power
at San Juan during the bombardment was
the small French cruiser Rigualt de
Genouilly. She had her rigging cut by
pieces Of shell. After the bombardment,
the Frenchman left for the island of st.
Thomas, where her commander told Cap
tain Converse of the Montgomery that
the American operations were entirely
unsuitable. 1t is understood, however, that
the French officers in conversation with
other people criticized the wisdom of the
bombardment.
