How Old Abe Learned to Tell When

A man who heard Abraham Lincoln
speak In Norwich, Conn, some time
before he was nominated for president,
was greatly impressed by the closely
knit logic of the speech. Meeting him
next day on train he asked him how
he acquired his wonderful logical pow
ers and such acuteness in analysis.
Lincoln replied: ut was my terrible
encouragement which did that for me.
When | was young man, 1 went into
an office to study law. saw TINT a
lawyers business Is largely to prove
things. l said to myself, Lincoln,
when is a thing provedp That was
poser. What constitutes proof? Not
evidence; that was not the point.
There may be evidence enough, but
wherein consists the proof? / groaned
over the question, and finally said to
myself. All, Lincoln. you can't tell

CHEERED THE CENSOR.
How IA Gallant Irish Regiment Took
an After Battle ScoIdInr


The leading regiment Of our column
was the Fifty third, commanded that
day by Major Payn, afterward General
Sir William Payn, X. c. b., q very fine
regiment, who, being mostly Irishmen,
were eager to meet their enemy. Mean
while received orders to cross the riy-
er by n ford and get round the enemy's
right flank, and l had gone for this
purpose and was crossing about quar-
ter Of mile lower down, when sud
denly | heard loud cheering and
heavy musketry fire, and then l saw
our troops CALAMITY advancing acros5
the bridge TO the assault.
1t turned out to be the Fifty-third,
who, tired of the delay under fire and,
1t was whispered, hearing that Sir
Colin had sent for his pet highlanders
to take the bridge, took their bits be-
tween their teeth and without any
further orders determined to rush the
bridge themselves. which they accord
ingly did, and with great success. The
enemy, once forced out Of their posi-
ton, showed but poor desultory
fight and, as at Cawnpur, fell an easy
prey to the cavalry, who, having cross
cd, some by the bridge and others, In
Guiding myself, by the ford, fell on
them and pursued them with such sue
cess that we captured every gun they
had.
The Fifty-thlrd were well pleased
with themselves and the result of the
fight they had SO suddenly Initiated,
but we heard that Sir Colin was great
ly annoyed with them and after the ac-
ton rated them soundly for their in
subordination. But little did these
wild Irlshmen care. They had had
their fight, and real good one, so far
as they were concerned. and as Sir
Colin concluded his speech Of rebuke
they gave him three cheers, and giving
three cheers more for General Mans
field, Sir Collins chief of staff, who
had formerly commanded their regi-
ment, they quite upset the chiefs equa-
nimity, but at the same time cleared
away his wrath.-"Old Memories"

Flies multiply at a prodgious rate.
Given temperature sufficiently high
to hatch eggs, their numbers are only
limited by the amount of food avail
able for them. Linnmus Is credited
with saying that three meat flies, by
reason of their rapid multiplication,
would consume dead horse quicker
than would a lion, and the fact that
certain dlptera having some outward
semblance to the honeybee lay their
eggs in the dead CarcasSeS of animals
probably led Samson and Virgil to
make erroneous statements with re-
gard to the genesis Of honey and the
manufacture Of bees. The breeding Of

The Disease More Prevalent than Ever and
Quite as Fatal. The Rest Treatment.
The grip has surprised the doc
tors and health authorities this season
by its rapid spread and by some novel
symptoms. While it spares nobody
it is proving especially dangerous to
middle-aged and elderly persons. In
many cases either a fatal onset of
pneumonia, or complete breakdown
of health and strength, is apt to fol-
low an attack of grip.
The vie course for all is preven-
ton. BY wearing Benson's Porous
Plaster on the chest and back you
protect the lungs from cold and chill
and with ordinary eare) you are
safe from grip.
For those who are already suffer-
ing from grip, or from the usual win

CHINESE IN HAWAII.
A Question which VIII Come Up on
Expiration of Geary Act.


"The labor question is the. serious
problem which is confronting the Tia
walan sugar planters at the present
time" said Civil Service Commissioner
A. w. Rodenberg, who arrived Gin
Washington recently after an extended
trip In the islands for the purpose of
putting the civil service Law into opera.
tlon there.
THE proper kind of labor Is scarce
already, and future agricultural devel-
opments Will be greatly. retarded unless
some provision Is made to supply this
element in the community. The Chi.
nese are the ideal sugar plantation
workers. They are better workers than
either the Japanese or Portuguese, and,
besides. they give no trouble. They are
quiet and always live up to their con-
tracts Since the Islands were an.
nexcd however, no more Cinnamon
can be- secured, and sugar planters are
deeply Interested IN this question.
Il am Informed that a strong effort
VIII be made by HawaIIans at the next
session Of congress, when legislation
on the Chinese question viii be made
necessary by the expiration OF the
Geary act, to have a clause I'm the new
law providing that Cinnamon may be
brought from China to the Hawaiian
Islands under contract 10 do purely
agricultural work for period not TO
exceed ten years, when they Will be de-
ported. Under the terms OF such a
provision It Is believed that no con-
fiict would be preclpitated with organ
lied labor, as the law would provide
that the Cinnamon should do nothing
but agricultural work, and this class of
work in Hawaii white men cannot do
on account Of the climatic conditions.
"There Is also another contemplated
solution Of the question which is re-
coiying serious thought and investlga-
ton nj the present time, and that is TO
import native Filiplnos TO work on
Hawaiian sugar plantations. This
idea. l believe, has never been made
known here but several large planters
In Hawaii have Investigated the propo-
sition sufficiently TO predict that the
Iilipinos may yet solve the perplexing
labor question of those islands,"
