ONE OF LlNCOLN'S STORIES
q Counting Experience Applied to
Persistent Offce-Seekers by
the Great President

This story of Lincoln seems to be a
new one. 1t was related at an old set
tiers meeting at Mount Pleasant, Ia, by
the late Senator James Harlan, of Iowa,
who served as secretary of the interior
under Mr.. Lincoln, and whose daughter
Mary is the vile of Robert Lincoln, eX-
secretary of war, and now a leading
lawyer and capitalist of Chicago.
Some politicians had called on Presi-
dent Lincoln to urge the appointment of
some OF their friends TO positions in a
certain department. By way of refusal
the president told the following story:
Gentlemen, the conditions in that de-
partment put me in mind of the time that
young friend and myself tried to court
the two daughters of peppery widow
living near our home. The old lady kept
lot of hounds.
we had not been in the house long
before one of the hounds came into the
room and lay down by the fire. In lit
tie while another one came to the door.
He didn't get in, for the old lady gave
him kick, saying:
Get out Of here. There's too MANY
dogs in here u,w,

WHERE GEN. LEE RESTED.
Confederate Chieftain Went to Mon
treal After the Surrender at APP
y pomattox Courthouse.

Edward Eagleton, the comedian OF
the Olympia Comic Opera company, tells
in the Los Angeles Herald a bit of I'M
written history about the movements of
Gen. Robert e. Lee during the six weeks
which followed the surrender of the
Army of Northern Virginia at Apo
mattox Courthouse.
Il was only boy then" says Eagle
ton, "but | can remember when Gen.
Lee came to Montreal to rest after the
terrible struggle which he had just
come through. didn't know then who
he was, but | will never forget him be-
cause he lived in one of my fathers
houses and was often at our house. My
father and his uncle owned a block OF
houses on Metcalf street known as Rox-
borough terrace, numbered from 1 to y.
We lived in No. and Gen. Lee stopped
at No. 8.
Although he evidently had come
, without telling any one in the south OF
, his intentions, he made no secret in
Montreal of his identity, and he was
, shown many attentions and every re-
spect, for his reputation had preceded
! him and he was among our heroes of tn G
hour.
when | grew older used to hear my
| father frequently mention the time when
, Gen. Lee had been our next-loor neigh.
Dor. so he became indelibly impressed on
my memory. don't suppose many peo-
pie know where he was during those
weeks outside of few people who hap
pened to see him in the neighborhood. y

BOYS DEFENDED A BRIDGE
They Were in Charge of Their Teach
ers, Grey-Headed Ministers,
and Did Their Duty.

An order came from Gen Lee for
Syery sick man who was able to re-
port at Stanton river bridge, as Gen
Sortz with 200 men was advancing to
burn the bridge. l mounted my horse
and started at once. says w. C. Mar
Ehal, of Morgantown, w. Va. in the
Richmond Times-Dispatch. When 1
arrived 1 found Col. harrington in
command and the artillery under an
officer who had never fired a gun. and
4 might add that his men were in the
ZANE predicament.
Col. Harrington put me in command
sC the artillery. After telling each
man what l expected him to do and
how to do 1t, received an order from
Col. Harrington to report at once TO
his headquarters. I found he wished
20 hold council of war. During our
talk, two, and, think, three old gray
headed ministers reported that they
we're there with their schoolboys to
Aelp save the bridge
IL occurred to me at once that this
was our chance, and l advised Coz
harrington to put the boys in the
breaStworks on the other side of the
river, the river being behind them and
she enemy in front of them The
nolOnel agreed at once The ministers
began to protest on account of the age
or the boys. The colonel asked il they
did not come to help save the bridge
and he insisted upon their holding
their position. This seemed fearfully
cruel, but the result proved to the sat
fsfaction of the ministers it was the
right thing to do.
The rest of the command was then
placed in breastworks on the south
side OF the river 7 then went at once
