Judge Krum's Lincoln story.

Judge Chester H. Krum was talk
ing about Lincoln, whom he greatly
admired, says the st. Louis Star. He
said:
None of the yarns which picture
him as swapping stories is true. Lin
coin never engaged in what we call
swapping stories. He never told a
story except to illustrate some point
In 1889 1 was in Washington and met
Postmaster General Wanamaker. He
said: L would like to hear a story
about Lincoln that you are willing to
swear is a true BILL l told him this
one:
THE prosecuting attorney of Lin
coins county was a red-headed indi-
vidual who was a comical cuss to look
at. He was fidgety and nervous and
suffered, and everybody had fun with
him. He had contrived to tear the seat
of his trousers one day. and as he sat
within the bar railing, intent upon the
trial of some case in which Lincoln
was interested, his leg was resting on
a table and the white skin was expos
ed to view. Somebody started a sub
scription paper with this heading: We
hereby agree to subscribe the sum OPP
posite our names for the purpose of
buying the prosecuting attorney a new
pair of trousers. Some five or six law
yers had signed for a quarter each and
the paper was passed to Lincoln who
was engrossed with a cross-examina-
ton. He looked at the paper a moment
and then wrote: I can give nothing to
the end in view.-A. Lincoln"

otto and the Auto.

From the Smart Set.
IT'S strange how fashion makes us
change the objects we admire;
We used to sing the tireless steed. but
now the steedless tire.
So Otto bought an auto, so as not
to be antique.
But the thing was autocratici
AS we'll as automatic.
And the auto wouldn't auto as IL
ought to, so to speak.
He thought to get an auto operator
for the work.
And first he tried circus man and
then he tried a Turk,
For he knew the circus man drove
fifty horses with success,
And If a man be shifty
Enough to manage fifty,
It's palpable enough he ought TO
manage one horse-less.
AS for the Turk. tits also plain, deny
IL II you can,
He ought to run an auto, since Turks
an Ottoman.
Twas all no use so Otto moved to
Alabama, purely,
That he might say. I'm Otto,
From Mobile. and my motto,
"A Mobile Otto ought to run an au-
tomobile surely"
Then Otto sought to auto on the auto
as he ought to,
But the auto sought to auto as Otto
never thought to.
So Otto he got hot, oh, very hot! as he
ought not to,
And Otto said. This auto ought to
auto, and it's got to-"
And Otto fought the auto, and the auto
II fought Otto
Till the auto also got too hot to auto

Fooled the Bathers.

1t was out at Paramount, where
there is a beach" and bathing, says
the Kansas City Journal. 1t was at
twilight, She tripped down the walk
from the dressing rooms, attired in a
suit that was remarkably short and
very fetching, and all the eyes in that
vicinity were focused on her. She
seemed absolutely fearless, and swan
about like a mermaid.
Two men on the bank were especial
ly charmed with the diversions of the
abbreviated skirted fairy. They strove
hard to attract her attention, and
finally, she looked full at them, and
waved her hand. Then she took a
header from the spring board and went
far under the water, kicking her legs
defiantly as she went beneath the
waves.
Those two men nearly had a fit.
I'm going in" shouted one, break
ing into a run for the bath house.
Som l." yelled the other.
And in very short while they were
in their suits and out on the beach
looking for the mermaid.
She was seated on the island, at the
edge of the pool, as far out as it is
permitted to go. The men swan as
rapidly as possible to where she was.
Then She rose up. displaying a face
unshaved for two days, and said in a
deep voice:

4 COMMON SENSE VIEW.

1t appears that the negroes Of Lou
isiana are agreed that steps should be
taken to test the constitutionality of
the provision of the new constitution
of that state which DISTINGUISHES them,
but they are not agreed that Congress
should be urged to cut down the rep
resentation of the state in Congress and
the Electoral College in proportion to
the number of negroes DISTINGUISHED.
A few days ago quite a large number
of negro politicians got together in
one of the government offices in the
custom house in New Orleans and
adopted resolutions favoring the cut
ting down of the states representation.
A day or two afterwards one OF the
largest and most intelligent of the ne
gro congregations in New Orleans took
a directly opposite position. after a
full and free discussion Of the matter.
The position of this church was that
the negroes of the South could advo-
cate no more suicidal policy than the
cutting down of Southern representa-
ton in Congress and the Electoral Col
AtSCs lOi Tic lcdSOll Jildl SuCH pOllCy
would forever make the negro an alien
and an antagonistic element in the
state or section in which he lived. This
is certainly the common sense view. To
advocate cutting down the representa-
ton would be nothing more than an
exhibition of the spirit of retaliation,
and would likely provoke hostile legis-
lation. Even if the representation were
cut down no benefit would accrue 10
the negro. On the other hand, if the
representation were left as it is, the
negro might benefit from it when his
political condition was so changed that
the great majority of his race exercised
the right to vote. All the negroes in
Louisiana are not dominated by spir-
it of revenge. In fact. the majority of
them appear to be controlled by COM
mon sense

POLITICS AND THE sCHLEY IN
CURRY.

Because Rear Admiral Schley is a
Democrat and Rear Admiral Sampson
is a Republican there will be a ten
dency no doubt to draw politics into
the Schley case as the facts are
brought out by the court of inquiry.
1t is not at all improbable that politi-
cal feeling has had a good deal to do
with the bitterness that has been APP
parent all along in the Sampson
Sehley controversy.
What the people want now is the
truth. Therefore politics should play
no part in the discussion of the testi-
mony that will be given before the
court. Apparently the Secretary Of the
Navy is determined that the inquiry
shall be as fair as II is possible to make
it. II 1t should appear that there is
disposition to make out a case against
Admiral Schley. whether the facts JUS
tify a decision against him or not.
there would be such a protest from one
end of the country to the other that the
Secretary would not find il comforta-
bic to retain his place in the cabinet.
II the finding of the court of inquiry
should be against Schley, and the
public should not he convinced that
the finding was just. there would be
such a clamor that Congress would be
compelled TO hold an investigation.
Although schley is a Democrat he Is
not without Republican friends In
decd some Of his staunchest supporters
are Republicans. II is hardly probable
therefore that Schleys enemies i'm the
navy department will attempt TO do
anything that would have a tendency
to lessen his chances for getting Jus
tice.
The trial undoubtedly will be a IA
nous one. While II cannot be said that
the administration has been against
Schley, the impression has gotten
abroad that ~ has not been willing 10
give him credit for anything that was
done In the Santiago naval campaign.
Had II not been for schley's friends IN
Congress II is doubtful " he would have
received any recognition for his SER
Vices 10 that campaign. The facts that
VIII be brought out by the court of In
quiry VIII show whether or not the ad-
ministration was Justified ln the course
~ has pursued in respect 10 him.

Appearances are often deceitful and

paupers, relates a London correspond
ent. 1t is related that once not long
since, when King Edward of England
was Prince of Wales. he was staying
with Leopold Rothschild near Leighton
Buzzard, and followed the hunt one
day. About lunch time he found HIM
self alone near Berkhamsted feeling
very hungry and without immediate
prospect of getting any food.
Recollecting, however, that the Smith
Dorriens' place, Haresfoot, was some
where within easy reach, he rode over,
found the house and rang the front
door bell. A footman appeared.
Would you kindly tell your master
that the Prince of Wales is outside and
would like some lunch ~ he said.
