RECALLS A Ll..COLN STORY
Contest for q Prize for Home
illness in Iowa

ST. Louis. Feb. 15.-One of the most
amusing voting contests yet %inaugur-
ated in connection with a free trip to
the worlds fair is just announced from i
Osceola. Iowa. where a local cigar
manufacturing company proposes to
reward physical ugliness most hand
somely. The ugliest man In Osceola
county, under the terms of the voting
contest, is to be sent to the worlds
fair, armed with a round trip ticket.
money to pay his hotel bill and tickets
week-all gratis.
The man receiving the largest num-
Der of votes between January 1 and
July / will be declared elected. When
he starts for the worlds fair he will
be accompanied to the railroad station
by a brass band and a delegation of
citizens, including the prettiest girl
from each township in the county.
In this connection it may not be
amiss to retell the story of Abraham
Lincoln ard the homely man. When
Mr.. Lincoln was a young lawyer he
came face to face with a remarkably
ugly man. The men stopped and star
ed at each other.
"Sir, I am going to kill you.'' cried
the stranger.
"And why, may I ask" cody in
quired Lincoln. What have you
against me, sir?"
II have nothing against ~you-noth-
ing whatever was the reply. "In
fact. I am very sorry that I must kill
you, but there is no way to get around
it. If I let you live I shall be break
ing my solemn word of honor. and
that. sir. I cannot afford to do. Have
you any messages to send to your
folks. or would you like to pray?"
but first tell me-" insisted Lincoln,
how it happens hat you have got to
kill me?"
Simply this way. SIR" replied the
stranger. Many years ago I was
pronounced the ugliest man on earth.
and I gloried in the honor. I made a
solemn vow that If I ever found an
other man who was uglier than my
self I would kill him."
Lincoln looked se%archingly at the
stranger.
DC you think I am an uglier man
than you2" he asked.
IT do"
"Then kill me at once" said Lincoln.
The sequel to this story is hat the
ugly man, highly complimented by
this caustic cut. went to Osceola
county, Iowa, and settled down. One
of his sons who inherited the fathers
claim to distinction, is now sad to be
a candidate for the worlds fair trip.

Berkeley said he had been in the woods near Glaston- bury in thte afternoon and that he tripped over a stick and fell down. His right leg was broken below the knee. With the aid of a couple of sticks he hobbled over a mile to the street car tracks and was taken to a doctors. He decided to go home 50 he boarded a car for Hartford.

J. Afford Fishers Congregation En-
 gagged In D1sorderIy Scenes.
 CLEVELAND, O., March 2s.-The pastorate of Rev. J. Afford Fisher of the Franklin Avenue Congregational church was terminated in a sensation al manner. MT. Fisher has since com- ing to the church last November been charged with too liberal views in his pulpit utterances, and he had been ask ed to resign. His contract, however, extends for three months longer. The congregation is willing to pay him for that period if he resigns immediately. MT. Fisher was to have preached twice, morning and evening" The morning services terminated in disorderly scenes when MT. Fisher made a reference to the manner in which many people re- gard the Bible. He declared that it had been made a fetich Thereupon Deacon Thomas Henderson arose in his seat and said that MT. Fisher came to the church under false pretenses and that he had accepted the pastorate as minister of the gospel.
 The congregat ton then took sides with and against the minister, and a number of persons moved toward the pulpit, which Mr. Fisher had just left. He was not allowed to enter 1t again during the morning service.
 MT. Fisher will leave Cleveland on Thursday and states that he will never again accept a pastorate and that he will devote his time to featuring. MT. Fisher came to Cleveland from the church of the late Dr. Scudder of Brooklyn and is widely known

POLITICS IN ALGIERS.
Stump Speaker Talked to Attorney Thoms and Invited Him to Drink.

While on his Mediterranean trip, At torney Thoms stopped at Algiers, where they were in the height of po- litical campaign to elect representa- tives and senators. Algiers IS con, trolled by the French, but its political methods appear to be the same as they are here. Stump speakers were lay ing down the law" on the street cor ners, from trucks and carts and every imaginable shape of temporary plat form. The principal issue of the cam paign seemed to be what it was here last fall, home rule, and matters were extremely warm for the antts.
 One evening MT Thoms was attract ed by the apparent sincerity of one stump orator in his own statements. He seemed to believe everything he was saying and trying to convince h1s auditors that he felt that way. While Mr Thoms could not understand word of what the man was saying, ne judged the gentleman appeared to be in a terrible state of mind from the gIestures that accompanied his every statement. His eye caught MT Thoms and he seemed to direct every word 10 him. When the meeting was over ana the people had dispersed, MT Thoms was walking about seeing the sights when the stump orator accosted him and in the manner in which the true Frenchman Is said to be known all over the world, invited him in straight English, but in a decidedly Hibernian accent, 'tto have a drop O the crathur." Mr Thoms's surprise at the mans man. ner on the stump thereupon disap- peared. though up to that time he had supposed he was native Algerian. It franspired that he was candidate TOT the chamber of deputies, as the leg1s- lature is known in that country. Their conversation led to a better under standing of the political situation in aAlgiers on MT Thoms's part, and told him that politics there is much the same as here. ..-

DEATHS AND FUNERALS.
We'll Known People Who Have Been
 Called Away.

George F. Kleeber, one of the best known barberS in Connecticut, died last night at his home, 63 Center street. of Brights disease. His health had been poor for some time past and with view to recuperating he made 1 several trips south, but all to no avail The last effort to regain his health was made last February, when accom- panied by his wife he went south and remained there until a short time ago, when it was decided to return home. He was taken seriously i'll at New Haven on the homeward trip and had to remain for a few days with relatives. Last Saturday he had to take to the bed again and sank rapid ly until the end came at 7 o'clock last evening. Mir Kleeber was born in Saugerties, N. Y, forty three years ago, and was the son of prosperous merchant, John Kleeber. who is still engaged in the shoe business at that place. He learned the barber's trade in his native town and worked at it for some time in New York city be- fore coming to Waterbury. MT Klee- Der came to this city to work for Sam ued Greenberg about twenty years ago and remained with him six and half years. when he opened a place of his own in the Bronson block, Bank street. Later he removed to 95 Bank street, his present quarters, where he remained until the big fire of Feblu- ary, 1902 when he was burned out and occupied temporary quarters. in the Bowditch block while the burned district was in course of reconstruc~ tion. When J. B. Mullings & Son had their new block ready for occupancy MT Kleeber returned to his former chop and fitted i+ up with everything that goes to make a first class tonsor- ial parlor. Besides his widow MT Kleeber leaves his father, John Klee- Der. two brothers and one sister, Louis, Charles and Miss Elizabeth Kfeeber of Saugerties.
