Two More Lincoln stories.

One takes great risk when one pro-
nounces new a story of President Lin
coin, but in a letter written in 1868 by the
late Justice Cartier of the Supreme Court
Of the District of Columbia there appears
an anecdote which have never seen print
ed, writes w. f. Curtis in the Chicago
Record Judge Cartier relates that ne
called upon Mr.. Lincoln with a party Of
politicians 10 secure the appointment OF
a gentleman who was opposed by the SEN
ators from his state. Mr. Lincoln suggest
ed that they ought to get the senator on
their side They replied that. owing 10
local complications, such a thing was i'm
possible MIR. Lincoln retorted that moth
ing was impossible in politics; that the pc
culiarities of the senator referred to were
well known, and that by the use Of lit
tie tact and diplomacy ne might be brought
around. in which case there would be 10
doubt about the appointment. To clincA
his argument Mr.. Lincoln told a story OF
James Quaries, a distinguished lawyer Of
Tennessee. Quarles, he said, was trying
case, and after producing his evidence,
rested, WhereUpOn the defense produced
witness who swore Quarles completely out
Of court, and a verdict was rendered ac-
cordIngly. After the trial one of mis-
friends came TO him and said:
why didn't you git that Teller to swar
on your side?'
L didn't know anything about him." re-
piled Quarles.
81 sht have told yer about him" said
the friend, for he would have swar for you
jest hard as he swar for the other side.
That's his business Judge. that Teller
takes a swarm fer a Twin"
Here is another story of President Lin
coin, and it also comes from the late Judge
Cartier, who was a member of Congress
from Cleveland during the war and one of
Mr.. Lincoln's most intimate friends 1t
relates to a Quaker philanthropist from
Philadelphia, who did not have
hair on his head, but took a great interest
In public affairs and was constantly call
ing at the White House in behalf of some
body or other who happened 10 be IN
trouble, and took up a great deal of Mr..
Lincoln's time The President treated him
with great courtesy, although his patience
was frequently tried. One day when the
philanthropist was particularly verbose
and persistent and refused to depart, al
though ne knew that important delegations
were waiting, Mr.. Lincoln suddenly rose
walked over TO the wardrobe in the corner
of the cabinet chamber and took a bottle
from a shelf. Handing il TO his visitor, he
remarked:
Did You ever use this stuff on your
head?'
No, sir; I never did"
well" remarked Mr.. Lincoln, Il advise
you to try it, and if at first you don't sue
coed, keep 1t up. They say it's a good thing
to make the hair grow. Take this bottle
with you and come back in six months and
tell me how it works"
The astonished philanthropist covered his
polished pate with his broad-brimmed nat
and Ieft the room. while Judge Cartier,
coming in with the next delegation, found
the President over in the corner, doubled
up with laughter at the success of his
strategy, and before he could proceed to
business the story had to be told.
