SAN FRANCISCO. April 22.-Hhe French
bark, oliver de Gibson, long ago given UP
for lost, arrived here today, 100 days from
Cardiff, Wales, with a cargo OF coal. The
bark had not been heard from since il
was obliged TO put in Cayenne with a
mutinous crew last August. Sea-faring
men were greatly surprised when it APP
peared off the Golden Gate. The vessel
was delayed by head winds and adverse
ocean currents. The stores ran low, three
men died OF scuTvy and three others are
now afflicted with the same disease. The
troublesome sailors were subdued and
otherwise the long trip was uneyensful.

qualifications on general principles quite
meet those presented by George A. Brooks.
Tilden Citizen: state Senator w. w.
Young Of Stanton is an avowed candidate
for the congress in this district and the
Citizen takes pleasure in making the an
nouncement to its readers. There may be
as good men available for the position, but
certainly none better qualified. During the
campaign Of 1900, Mr.. Young made the
only political speech in Tilden that at
tracted any attention and this speech left
with our community a very favorable i'm
preston Of him as an orator. His term
in the state senate. to which he was
elected last fall, stamped him as an In
defatigable worker and the bills he intro
duced and the speeches he made are con-
vincing proofs Of his being in touch with
the common people of the state. He is
a pronounced republican. highly honored in
his own county IA democratic county. which
gave him a good majority in 1900, an able
lawyer of twenty-five years practice, a
manly man capable Of doing his own think
ing, and with moral stamina enough to ex-
press his honest convictions at all times.
in all places and upon all political issues.
With him as the congressional candidate,
the Third district republicans need never
fear the humiliation OF making a defensive
campaign nor OF being represented at
Washington by a nonentity.
osmond Republican: Senator W. w.
Young Of Stanton is a candidate for the re-
publican nomination for congress IN this
district. Mr.. Young is one OF the most rep
resentative and able men OF the state. who,
by his industry and close attention 10 bust
ness in farming as well as in law, has ac-
cumulated considerable OF the worlds
goods, owing TO his strength Of purpose and
integrity. He has been grand chancellor OF
the state grand lodge. Knights Of Pythias.
a position that he ably filled to the credit
Of the order. which made rapid advance
ment under his supervision. Two years ago
he was elected senator from the district
comprising the counties Of Wayne. Madison.
Pierce and Stanton, which district he repre-
sented with honor to his constituency. In
the senate he became a recognized leader.
ever looking closely after the interests Of
his district and that OF the state. As a
speaker and debater he had no superior in
the senate and in whatever stand he took to
be right he stood firmly to the end without
hinching, showing the courage of his CON
victions. No man in the district is better
qualified to represent it in the halls OF cen
gress than Mr.. Young. and should he re-
ceive the nomination he will make a can
vass Of the district such as very few men
are able to make. He should at least re-
ceiYe the hearty support Of his senatorial
district in the coming contest.

This is one of the many stories that

who is spending the summer in Eng

has taken a country house over there
for the season and is living grand

English servants, so their American
master has discovered, are quite unlike
the menials to whom he is accustomed
in his own country. They are special.

some one particular work, and profess
sional etiquette forbids them to tres.
pass on each others preserves. How
strictly they keep them each to his
own work the American did not know
till, sauntering idly out of the house
one day, he espied q watering can,
which had been left by gardener at
a little distance from the mansion on
the edge Of the drive. 1t occurred to
him that it would be amusing to play
ut being gardener. He would water
the flowers himself. So, calling to
man servant, who happened to be
passing, he bade him fetch the water
ing can. The man straightened HIM
self up and touched his cap.
"Beg pardon, sir" he said, in tone
of respect not unmixed with surprise,
I" I'm the coachman, SIR"
"All right" answered the American;
" bring me that can."
|" Beg pardon, sir" repeated the
man, but Pm the coachman, sir"
"Well, WE'LL" said the American. "I
know you're the coachman. Bring
me the can"
The coachman touched his cap
again and repeated his former remark
Light dawned on the American.
"Oh," said he. "you're the coach.

The coachman saluted and walked
away. The coach and four drew up at
the door a few minutes later. The
master climbed in.
Now" said lie, "drive me to that
watering can"
The order was obeyed. The horses
paused a hundred yards down the
drive.
"Get down and hand me the can,
now," ordered the master.
A moment later he was contentedly
watering the flowers. He had the
can, the coachman's dignity had been
preserved, and all was we'll.

MISTAKES ABOUT LINCOLN.
He Was Not Ozark Horse" at the CHICAGO
Convention.
st. Louis Globe Democrat.

f, st. Louis GlObe-DemOcrat.
An Iowa writer who is telling about
the number Of great men which his
State has produced in the past few
years Gays that although Secretary
Leslie NJ. Shaw has been only four or
five years in politics, yet 81 he is far
better known to the nation than Lin.
coin was when he was nominated for
President" The notion that Lincoln
was unknown outside of his own
State until his nomination for Presi.
dent has been expressed by better in
formed writers than the Iowa man
here referred to, but it is delusion
just the same.
Lincoln served term in Congress
in the latter part of the Mexican war,
and though he did not make nation
al reputation then, he was sufficiently
we'll known throughout the country
in 1856, at the time when the Repub-
lican party's first national convention
was held, to get ITO votes in that con-
vention for Vice President on the
ticket with Fremont, as compared
with 46 for Banks, who had just been
elected Speaker of the House in the
longest and most exciting contest for
that Office which has taken place in
the history OF the country, and 43 for
Wilmot, the author of the celebrated
anti.slavery proviso. Dayton, how
ever, was nominated. That was four
years before Lincoln's nomination for
President. In 1858, when he can
vassed Illinois against Douglas in the
contest for the Senate, he won q repu.
tatiOn which extended all over the
country, and which brought his name
up in connection with the Republican
national leadership. That WAS nearly
two years before the convention met
which nominated him for President.
The person who asserts that Lin
coin was suddenly sprung upon the
country as q Presidential quantity
knows nothing about the politics of
1S56-60. When Lincoln, by invita-.
tion Of New York Republican club,
made his historic address at Cooper
institute, in New York city, on Feb.
q, 1860, the Tribune declared next
morning that since the days OF Clay
and Webster no man has spoken to q
larger assemblage of the intellect and
culture of CITY," He had powerful
friends among the Republican states
men and newspapers of every State in
the Union at that time, and that was
nearly three months before the con.
vention met which nominated him.
On the first of the three ballots in the
convention in which he was nominat-
ed he had votes from New England
and the Middle States, % we'll as from
his own quarter of the country.
Careless or ignorant persons. 10 point
ing morals or making antithsses, are
in the habit of insinuating that Lin.
coin, at the time OF his nomination in
1860, was q sort of dark horse or an
accident, but such assertions make .
vide divergence from the facts.

OF our men told us about your typhoid
fever siege. I think you're looking

Very wonderful was the hotel clerks
memory. and very pleasant was the
effect of it upon the faces of the
guests. Their worn and harried look
vanished; they smiled; it delighted
them to be welcomed so agreeably.
And thus does the typical hotel clerk
OF the big city conduct himself always,
doing more by his tremendous men,
ory and tremendous tact than any
other employe to help his boss get
rich.
