LINCOLN'S CAR.

The recent visit of Booker T. Wash
ineton to Omaha has resulted 10 q
m ,vemeut to resurrect the old Abra-
ham Lincoln Car from the scrap pile in
that city and preserve 1t as a relic.
The colored people Of the city have
taken the matter 10 hand and have Pc
titioned the Council to make an ap-
preparation looking to that end. The ca
occuIi an isolated place In the yards
of the Union Pacific Railroad Company.
Just what terms can be made for the
puj chase of the Car has rot yet been as.
Ger aimed, but the probs biiities are that
the company can be prevailed upon 10
donate the Car to the city, provided an
agreement Is made TO have it preserved
and a building is furnished for that pur-
pose.
Booker Wash ngton heard OF the car
when in ON aha and went down to the
wards to look j. over. He aroused the
enthusiasm of the colored people. The
plan is to RI store the Car to its orgiinsl
beauty when it was the travelling home
OF President Lincolr. Several photo
graphs OF the Car as it was originally
are in existence, and there are several
showing tho sable decorations of the
car when it carried the body OF MIR.
Lincoln to Springfield. The colored
people want to raise national sub
scrip ion among colored people to re-
store the car TO its original appearance.
The Car is but a thing of decayed
wood and rusted iron today, yet when
il was constructed in the military shops
at Alexandria, Va, in 1864, it was the
marvel Of the railroad world. To pre-
vent bullets of assassins passing through
The mahogany sides OF the car it was
iron clad, armor plate being set be-
meath the upholstered sides of the car TO
N ke it entirely bullet proof.
President Lincoln designed the car.
The largest of the compartments was
used as the Presidents study. The
sofa on which he rested and slept was
fifteen feet long. It was in this car
that the President always went to the
front.
The Union Pacific bought the Car in
1866, and it was used by Sidney Dillon,
the president of the road, but its great
weight, because of its armored sides,
made it Objectionable, and for many
wears it has been isolated 10 the yards.
The car is forty-two feet long and eight
and one.half feet wide. There is but one
entrance, and this opens into narrow
passage way The whole length of the
c,r. There were three compartments,
aud all we're elegantly upholstered end
furnished with reclining chairs. The
Presidents compartment was decorated
with painted panels showing the coats
o.-arms of the States. The other rooms
we're padded with crimson corded Six.
Tne car was mounted on four wheeled
trucks.
