Lincoln's wooing and wedding are of so
peculiar a nature that they deserve no
tice in the annals of his remarkable life
as throwing a side light upon one aspect
Of his character with which the general
pubic is wholly unfamiliar, says Golfers
Weekly. This popularity can only be eX-
planned by his disordered state of mind
when he became acquainted with Miss
Mary Todd in 1899. His wooing was
series of morbid misgivings as to the
force of his affections, of alternate ardOr
and coOlness advances and Withdrawals,
and every variety of strange language
and freakiSh behavior, continued until the
appearance Of his omnipresent political
rival, Douglas, in the field of love, gave
it the much needed matrimonial impetus
But when, after several months of court
ship, the wedding day arrived. the bride
waited Vainly amid her silks and flowers
for the recalcitrant lover. Friends dis
covered him on the morrow, hidden in an
Outof-the-Yay corner, if not insane, ct
least sunken in one of those absorbing fits
of Respondent gloom from which he suf-
fered at that time. Months later, when
he was quite recovered, the wedding took
place, this time with much less ostenta-
ton, thanks 10 the former ridiculous per-
Torrance.

Told nv AdIas stevenson.

Adlai f. Stevenson, Democrats candi-
date for Vice President, gave prohibition
states a backhanded slap at a banquet
given to him by the State Bar Association
last year, when no wine was served, says
a Sioux City dispatch in the New York
Sun. He was called upon to respond to a
toast and said that he was not prepared
to make a speech, but would tell them a
story about a man who struck a small
prohibition town in the state of Maine,
bringing with him an abiding thirst.
There being no saloon he tried a drug
store. There he was told that he could
get whisky only on a physicians prescrip-
ton. He consulted physician, but got
no relief, and desperately asked: What
am | going to do about it,"
The doctor said there was a nest of
snakes not more than mile and a half
from town If he could manage to get
bit by a snake he would have to have
whisky an antidote, and the doctor
would make out the prescription. The man
with a thirst started off to the snake cave.
An hour and a half later he returned,
tired, dusty and disconsolate.
We'll, did you do as 1 told you?" in
quired the doctor.
My dear sir" replied the man with the
thirst, II called on the snakes, but dis
covered that every one of them had their
biles engaged for six months ahead"
