TWO ABRAHAM LINCOLN STORIES
He Franked the Soldiers Letter and
Was Doorkeeper Pro Tenn.

Was Doorkeeper Pro Tenn.
New York Tribune.-When the
army was encamped in Virginia, near
Washington, in 1929, President
Lincoln franked a letter, Let 1t Go
A. Lincoln" for youthful soldier
named Frank King of Fond du Lac
county, Wis, and the envelope is still
held as sacred treasure by the fam.
lily of the soldier lad, who lost his life
at Gettysburg. Capt Thomas Jones
Of the pension office related the story
in this way
ut was no easy matter to get letters
home during the war of the rebellion
Paper and envelopes were hard to get,
and stamps wer almost as scarce as
diamonds. Soldiers who were fortu-
nate enough to be near Washington
had their letters franked by senator's
and representatives, and you may i'm
agine that our lawmakers were kept
busy with their pens. President Lin
coin was even known to help the boys
out occasionally. On one occasion
Frank King, private in Wisconsin
regiment, encamped near Arlington
Heights, got a package of envelopes,
and, with friend, Harry Dunn, went
to the white house and asked Mr.. Lin
coin to frank the envelopes. 1t was
easier to see the president then than
1t is now and at certain hours of the
day a soldier could reach him as east
ly as could any of the high officials.
when King called and the presi-
dent knew what was wanted, he asked
Why don't you get your Congressman
to frank these envelopes? / am very
busy, boys.
The folks at home would like to
see your name on the envelopes. Mr..
President was the reply.
"Mr. Lincoln smiled, and taking a
pen, he wrote on one of the enyelopes
the foregoing order. He carefully
blotted it. and handing 1t to the young
man said, Take this with the rest of
the package to your congressman.
Scott Sloan, and tell him that | said
to fix them for you. II he refuses. and
l don't think he will, bring them back
to me. / want you boys to be brave
soldiers and shaking the hand of
King nd Dunn he babe them goodby."
James Etter doorkeeper in the
war department, frequently occupied
chair from which he could not be in
duced to part, because IL was once
used by President Lincoln, who at the
time wore watchman's badge pinned

Sandwiches.

Chicken and Lamb-Select portion
of lean meat, and chop very fine in
chopping bowl. Moisten with a little
cold gravy wholly free from grease.
add salt and pepper to taste, and
spread between slices of bread and
butter.
Corned Beef-Boil the corned beef
till it is very tender, and let it remain
in the water it has been boiled in
over night. Chop piece of the lean
meat with small portion of fat. Add
little VI the liquid and sprinkle of
penper. The corned beef is usually
sufficiently salt, though some care
| should be exercised to make sure that
it is well corned and not fresh. In
the latter case the mixture should be
sailed the same as fresh meats.
Ham-Chop the ham very fine, mix
ing little fat meat with the lean to
prevent dryness. II deviled ham is
preferred, make a thin paste of mus
tard and weak vinegar. and stir
through the meat. Spread this highly
seasoned mixture very thin on the
bread and butter The potted ham
from the stores is very good substi-
tute for that made at home, and Is
most useful In an emergency.
Beef and Veal-Beef and veal sand
witches are not tame in comparison to
the more tasty meats, IL they are well
seasoned Chop them very fine, sea-
son well. and moisten with soup stock
or gravy. Appetizing sandwiches may
be made in emergencies from beef
steak, veal or lamb chops or fried
ham, provided the tough portions and
gristle are removed and the meat is
chopped very fine, and the seasoning
and moistening are carefully added
Sardines-Cut the sardines in
halves, remove the back bone, also
scrape Off the skin when 1t is notice
able, and place the fish between
slices Of bread and butter. Sardine
sandwiches are still more delicious
when small amount of lemon Juice
has been squeezed over the fish or a
little mayonnaise dressing has been
added.
Lettuce-Use lettuce that has stood
in water in the refrigerator few
hours. These leaves retain their
crispness longer. Place a leaf be-
tween each slice of bread and butter.
Spread the leaf with mayonnaise
dressing or any thick boiled dressing.
Do not allow the leaf OF lettuce to be
much larger than the slice of bread
and butter, though a peep OF green
adds to the dainty effect.
Cheese and Ginger Wafers-Make
or purchase the thinnest of ginger
waters. Spread them carefully on a
nat surface to prevent cracking with
cream cheese. and form into sand
witches.
Saltines and Jam-Spread the jam,
choosing any kind that is preferred.

Panama, Oct. 25.-The news of a
secret alliance between Colombia and
Chile has produced much satisfaction
in conservative circles on the isthmus
where it is firmly believed the Chilean
cruiser Presidente Pinto now in Pana-
ma harbor, will very soon change its
present tlag for that of the Columbian
! republic. This news diseoncerts the
liberal, or revolutionary element, be
cause if the Colombian government &C
quired the Chilean cruiser Colombia it
would then be able to vanquisb the
revolutionary gunboats. Colonel Shall
err superintendent of the Panama
railroad, who recently arrived on the
isthmus from New York, called yester-
dayupon General Perdomo and Govern
or Salazar. The conferences be
tween Col. Shaler and the Colombian
officials are reported to have
been very pleasant and it would APP
pear that the railroad company andthe
government have come to an under
standing and are now on very good
terms.

Colon, Colombia, Oct. 25.-The stu
alton on the isthmus remains I'M
changed. Small bands of so-called lib
erals are seen daily along the line of
the railroad. Some of these make bold
to collect taxes, levy dues, patrol vii
lagos, ETC., as there are no government
troops stationed on the line. The
death rate among the soldiers of the
government now at Panama and Colon
is very high. A good many of. these
troops come from the higher prov
inces and are accustomed to the
climate of the isthmus.
