M Va named "Ab Trent" hard at
M lDN work chopping up "a
house." which Mr.. Hill
VID had employed him to con.
vert into firewood. Alb
was barefooted and shiv-
cred painfully while he worked.
Lincoln watched him a few moments
and asked him what he was to get for
the job. Alb answered "one dollar"
and, pointing to his naked and suffer-
ing feet, said that he wished to buy
a pair Of shoes. Lincoln seized the
axe. and, ordering the boy to comfort
himself at the nearest fire, chopped UP
"the house" SO fast that Alb and the
owner were both amazed when they
saw It done. According to Mr.. Rut-
ledge, "Ab remembered this act with
the llvellest gratitude. Once he, being
n cast-iron Democrat, determined to
vote against his party and for Mr..
Lincoln; but the friends, as he after
wards said with tears in his eyes,
made him drunk, and he voted against
Abe. Thus he did not even have an
opportunity to return the noble con-
duct of Mr.. Lincoln by this small
measure Of thanks"

OFFERS
$4,000 TO
CHURCH
John D. Rockefeller Has a
String on the Gift, However,
andS4O,OOO More is Needed

New York, Oct 3-Thrugh the gener-
osity OF John d. Rockefeller the Wash
ington Heights Batist church now sees
the way out OF financial difficulties so
serious that the trustees were about TO
suggest that on Nov. l next the house OF
worship be closed.
Mr.. Rockefeller guaranteed $4,000 OF tlN
indebtedness OF 500 600 on the condition
that the Baptist City Mission society give
by the provision that the Congregation
shall m In three years raise ne ns ass
agreed To pay the interest during this
time The offer OF Mr. Rockefeller was
last night submitted to the trustees and,
although II has not as yet been formally
accepted. the officers OF the church were
overjoyed and enthusia site.
The sum OF $500 was Immediately SUBJ
scribed by the trustees and their friends
at a general prayer meeting held after
the session of the trustees. Then follow
ed a period of rejoicing and Thanksgiving,
away declaring that no effort would be
spared to raise the necessary funds.
This is Mr.. Rockefellers solution OF one
church of this city. The Washington
Heights Baptist church Is one OF the old
est organizations OF the denominatfon In
New York. The original house OF worship
was In stanton street and was known as
the Union Baptist church. Owing 70
the trend of the population northward,
Twenty-third Street Baptist church, was
I'm 1888 dedicated at Lexington avenue
and Twenty-thfrd street. Again the en-
craachments OF business drove the mem
bers 10 seek homes I'm the upper city.
The church property was sold for 500,
900 and a new edifice, said TO be one or
the handsomest OF its kind In the city,
was butt at Convent avenue and ffotn
street, at a cost of $l75.000. The sum OF
$1,000 was invested in the new building
and a mortgage of s5s.oOO was given 60
the Dry Dock Savings institution. The
congregation took possession or Its new
home In 1898. but even before that serious
dissensfons had arisen.
II was charged that the trustees were
too desirous of placing the heavy obli-
cations of building the church upon the
congrega ton. One OF the trustees was
interested in Georgia marble; another in
hardware. and third was a builder.
They all insisted that they had sold sup
plies 10 the church practically at cost,
but there we're those who thought they
were over-anxious in the matter.
The sum of $500 was raised last year
for current expenses, but. although the
congregation was growing and the church
was beginning TO really flourish and take
root in its new surroundings. the trustees
began to lose courage. because they saw
no way of meeting the principal or the
mortgage.

TOD SLOANE FINDS DEFEND ERS

Paris, France. Oct g. - 1t seems
probable now that the cee-
brated Paris turf scandal will be so sifted
within a short time that the real card
sharps and horse pullers can be clearly
separated from the class OF turfmen,
known as square and legitimate.
Within the last ten days the press. by
means of visits or letters, received from
gentlemen who have not been escorted to
the frontier. and are not likely to be. has
been able to give a clearer insight into
the rather muddled situation.
There are four men-two who are
Americans, one Englishman and one Aus
tralian-who have been closely examined
by the police and II is said that they
have consented TO sit for their pictures.
SOME MAY HAVE LEFT FRANCE.
A we'll known turfman said: For
the last three or four days l have not
seen these men, browsing i'm their usual
pasture. I cannot say where they are.
but perhaps they have been favored with
railway passes on lines leading to neigh
boring countries.
There is a strong impression among
many persons connected with legitimate
horse racing in France that somebody
who was being uncomfortably crowded
thought II wise 10 give sudden promi-
nence 10 the names of men who are up
right and respectable turfmen, in order
10 keep the shadow of uncertainty from
lowering over their own heads until the
storm passes away.
That there has existed a gang OF card
men. ready TO use any kind OF deck. or
chloroform. II necessary. or even to crowd
the mourners I'm a dark hallway, Is gen.
orally admitted. That a horse-pulling
combination really exists, IN al IT'S Won
ders of MorganlilSe organization, is per-
haps an open question"
TOD SLOANE NOT INVOLVED.
At certain we'll known rendezvous
last evening a gentleman who is always
next" said: Il am of opinion that Tod
Sloane, for example. has been more
sinned against than SHINING. / saw him,
for instance, at Trouville. but IL surely
was not crooked baccarat that was oc-
cupying his attention then. Sloane is not
at present walowing In money and II
seems TO me, II he had been having the
advantage of things for some time, as re-
ports say he would be in better shape
financially"
This gentleman added Furthermore. that.
contrary to rumor, Sloane has not seen fit
TO slope but he was still to be found al
his usual localities and as serene as
ever.
Herman Pruser whose name as "Preus-
SER was cabled from New York in con-
nection with the scandal, last night re-
auested that he also be set right before
the community in Paris and New York.
Pruser wants II distinctly understood
that his record as a turfman is clear of
complications, and that he is in no way
implicated in this affair as pertaining TO
the Paris turf
John +. Korn writes denying that he is
mixed up in turf frauds lie admits that
he was examined by the police, but states
that the latter were perfectly satisfied
with his explanations and told him he
could continue.

One feature OF the biennial cleo.
tion law which all voters should re-.
member is that it provides for the
election OF two of the three members
Of the board OF commissioners on
the presidential years, when party
feeling gets the better of judgement
with many voters. These two com.
missioners will comprise the majority
of the board for period Of four
years and rule the financial destinies
of the county. Do the voters de
sire to place that power in the hands
OF any two men. All corpo, ations
or other companies that e1pend such
sums of money as the county govern
ment does provide for electing their
directors or governing board every
year, or at least a majority of it,
while this bill makes the selection
for our county government come
only once in four years, as the one
man elected on the second year
after the presidential election will
be unable to do anything. This
feature alone is sufficient to condemn
the bill in the mind OF all thinking
voters, as it is departure from the
rules of sound government that forty
times the meagre saving in election
expenses will not compensate for.
