A lincoln Story,

Lincoln used to be fond Of telling A
story which he got from Mr.. Connant, of
a lawyer in a Western town who desired
the nomination for county judge. On the
morning preceding the evening on which
the county convention was to meet he APP
piled to the livery stable keeper in his
village for horse and buggy in which
to drive to the county town, sixteen miles
distant, where the convention was to be
held.
Give me the best and the fastest horse
you have, Sam" said he, $50 that l will
have time to go around and see the boys
before the convention comes in"
The liveryman, however, was support
ing a rival candidate, and gave the law
yer a horse that outwardly appeared per-
feet, but which broke entirely down be-
fore half the journey was completed, so
that when the candidate arrived the con-
vention had adjourned aad his rival had
been nominated
On his return TO the stable, late the fol-
lowing afternoon, knowing that il was
useless to resent the trick played upon
him. he said 70 the owner;
Look here, Smith, you must D. train
ing that horse for the New York mar
ket. You expect to sell him to an under
taker for hearse horse, don't you? Well,
it's time wasted. / know from his gait
that you have spent days training him TO
pull hearse, but he'll prove dead fail
ure. Why, he's so slow he couldn't get
a corpse TO the cemetery in time for the
resurrection. Los Angeles Times.

was Immediately stopped, but before it's
effects could wear off he was dead
William Collins Whitney was popular
ly known as father Of the American
navy, of which he was Secretary under
President Cleveland. The United States
then had nc navy as it has to-day. Ex-
cept three, the warships were all anti
quated. Officers of the navy had already
raised the cry of modern ships and men
to man Them" and Whitney heard it,
When he retired from the Navy Depart
ment in 1899 he had caused to be built
thirteen modern ships of war and had
nine under construction and the new
navy was an accomplished fact.
There were three epochs in the career
of Mr.. Whitney. those of lawyer, states
man and fnancier. When he became the
last ne ceased being a statesman and
when he became statesman lie gave up
the law.
Mr.. Whitney was twice married Only
IA few years ago he built a mansion on
Fifth avenue and 6Sth street, which was
one of the most luxurious in New York.
The first floor alone is said to have cost
$1,000,000 Besides, he owned many
country places. with extensive estates
one at Lenox, Mass. OF 10000 acres;
16,00O-acre preserve in the Adirondacks,
a 2,000acre estate at Aiken. S. c., a
Kentucky farm and shooting lodge in
England.

CareIessne.. with Lanterns.

The cost of carelessnesS in carrying
lanterns in the barns and stables is
a serious matter, and every year
costly accidents occur Whenever it
is necessary to use lanterns In
the stable great care should be
observed to prevent accidents. Coal
oil at best in a lantern is dan
gerous, and especially so when the
lantern is not kept in good con-
dition. A good plan is to have wire
strung across the backs of the stalls
and have a stout wire fastened on it,
so it viii slide along as desired; have
curve in the wire, like a hook, so
that the handle of the lantern can be
easily hooked on it. The hooked wire
can be slid along on the stretched wire
and the lantern hung just where 1t is
wanted, and no danger of kicking COWS
or stumbling, awkward men doing any
damage. 1t pays to be careful with
the lantern, for 1t is. an indispensable
thing on the farm. Have a place for
the lantern every night, and see that
ii is left there, so that in case OF
emergency anyone, can quickly find
the lantern. Always see that there are
matches in the safe by the side of the
lantern.

LIHCOLN's EARLY DAYS.
Some "Reminiscences of His Boyhool
in Indiana.

Some "Reminiscences of His Boyhool
in Indiana.
Until few years ago therl was in
Gentryvile an old wooden fire shovel. on
which Lincoln had traced these verses:
Time-what an empty yapor It's,
And days, how swift they are;
Swift as an arrow speed our lives,
Swift as shooting star,
The present moment
The stanZa was not finished, but it was
kept for many years until the old fire
shovel disappeared, and its whereabouts
are unknown to this day.
There used to be character around
Gentryvllle in its early days known as
''Old Holmes" who was often intoxicat-
ed
One winter night "Old Holmes would
have been frozen but for Lincoln, who
found him and carried him home, sitting
up all night to resuscitate him. This
incident started temperance wave over
Spencer County, and the debates were
startling and interesting.
Half way up the long wandering street
for many years stood an old blacksmith
shop. In front of it was wide spread
Ing tree, that still waves its boughs, but
every sign of the old shop is gone.
The ground on which stood the smithy
for years was owned by the Rev. Fred
Heuring. past commander of the Indiana
Grand Army OF the Republic, but is now
the property of Jacob Dendinger, town
marshal.
This old blacksmith shop was a fam

was a favorite resort for the people of
Spencer County.
The old blacksmith. whose name every
one seems to have forgotten, was a nat
ural story teller. and he had around him
a crowd of as good story tellers as him
self.
Abraham Lincoln was at this shop a
great deal, and il was a common resort
for his father, Thomas Lincoln, and All
rahan's uncles. John and Dennis Hanks.
The shop was the country news stand
and the lecture platform, and it was
there that Abrahsm Lincoln learned
many of the stories that he told in after
life.
1t was here that Dennis Hanks told
the story OF Sykes dog. a story that Lin
coin fOlQ 10 OrADl HIteI the Adtt VI lCAS-
burg. and which was one OF the most
famous of Lincoln's stories
Sykes had dog that was a nuisance,
and some one fed him a large cartridge
that exploded. and the animal never
amounted to much after that as dog.
Lincoln's application of the story was
that those who were complaining of
Grant for paroling so many of Pember-
toms army did not realize that after the
fall of yicksburg il did not amount to
much SIS an army.
The Crawford school. which Abraham
Lincoln attended, was situated about
three miles from here. Ii was built of
round logs. and was not more than six
feat high.
Sos-ar- "a ne older persons in this coun-
try remember their parents telling of An
drew Crawford, the teacher. and his
brother. Josiah Crawford. the latter
known as blue Nose Crawford. name
given him By Abraham Lincoln.
Josiah Crawford once loaned Lincoln
a copy OF Life OF Washington, and
Lincoln got the book wet. for which
Crawford charged him IS cents. debt

Horsemen are loud in their praises
Of oats as feed for working or driving
horses, and oats deserve all the praise
BY reason of the fact that they are a
preferred food for horses and. Scotch
men, oats are usually about the dear
est feed per hundred pounds on the
farm. Horsemen attribute this supe-
rior value of oats to the mythical sub
stance "ayenin," which no chemist has
ever yet been able to discover. They
claim that it is this that puts the gin
ger in man and beast which feed on
oats. The Utah Experiment station,
however, has found out by experiment
that when a mixture of bran and
shorts. half and half, can be bought
at the same price per hundred pounds
as oats, it serves the same purpose
equally well, and when fed with al
falfa gives even better results, thus
materially reducing the cost of feed
ing the horse as compared with oats.

Condensed MILK Industry.

The condensed milk industry in
the United States consumes 600. coo. 900
pounds of fluid milk yearly and makes
5.000000 cases of forty eight cans
each. There are more than 200 fac
tories in the United States, all using
the Borden process, and about seventy
of them belong TO the Borden Com
pany. situated in different parts of the
country. The largest condensed milk
plant in the world is at Dixon, ILL.,,
which uses 100000 pounds of milk a
day: the second largest is at New
Berlin. Chenango county. \. Y, and
the third is at Egin. which consumes
about 100000 pounds of milk daily.

The situation is quiet here, but native
disturbances throughout the country are

efforts OF the government are entirely
concentrated upon obtaining recognition
from the powers of the neutrality Of Ko-

trality will lead to a treaty with other
nations guaranteeing Korea's permanent
independence under conditions similar to
