LINcoLN's BIRTHPLACE.
Kentucky Farm Ordered Sold for Bene-
At Of Creditors.

A suit involving the ownership of the
farm on which Abraham Lincoln was born
recently decided by Judge Jones of the
Larue circuit court, brought out some in
teresting matter regarding the efforts to
sell the place to the United States govern
ment or some patriotic society The farm
contains about no acres chiefly valuable
for its association with Lincoln and conse-
quent historic interest.
The suit grew out of the bankruptcy Of
Alfred w. bennett, the petition being filed
in California. bennett had been the owner
of the Lincoln farm. but had transferred
it, and did not include it in his schedule Of
assets. The trustee In bankruptcy sought
to subject this farm to the claims of DEN
netts creditors on the ground that the
property was in legal effect held in trust
for him.
The deposition of the Rev. J. w. Bing-
ham. Methodist minister of Crittenden
county, contained the interesting disclosures
relative to the efforts of Dennett to dispose
of the property to the government. His
deposition included correspondence with
bennett regarding the matter.
The purchase of the property was made
originally by bennett with a. view to real
izing on its sentimental value Mr.. Bing-
bennett to let the farm
In December, 1899. bennett wrote to Mr..
Bingham: I'VE have very strong argu-
ment for soldiers home at the birthplace.
Its location there would still further heal
the sectional feeling between lne north and
the south. II Deboe has any sort of push
about him he will see his opportunity for
doing himself a big piece Of popularity in
urging this thing on. II Deboe does not
hurry will undertake to see Mckinley my
self"
Mr.. bennett, after seeing no prospect Of
selling to the government, urged its sale
to the Illinois Central Railroad Company.
This failing. bennett finaaiy wrote to Mr..
Bingham that he had transferred the farm
to David Crear OF New York city. Mr..
Crear was the treasurer of the Christian
Missionary Alliance and bennett subscribed
5000 for missionary purposes while at
tempting to sell the farm to the govern
ment. 1t was in payment of this subscrip-
ton that the farm was decided to Crear
who was holding 1t for the missionary al
lance.
Judge Jones decided that the transfer was
not valid and that the farm should be sold
for the benefit Of Dement'S creditors.
Besides the Lincoln Spring farm bennett
also owned the cabin in which Jeff Davis,
president of the southern confederacy, was
born. He exhibited this at the Pan ?Amer-
lean exposition in Buffalo.

but his endeavors in the political field had
been mostly in the council tent, with the
big chiefs.
A marked change has come over him In
regard to his demeanor towards his fellow
man. He has broadened in the Senate and
has acquired more of the art of mingling
with men. He was always courteous and
now he Is affable. He wants to be genial
but when he first came to Washington he
did not know how. No one complains Of
stiff treatment at his hands these days.
AT the outset of his senatorial career, to
be met by newspaper man would make
the perspiration of anxiety break out on his
brow. Now some of his best friends are
newspaper men and he has come to appre-
ciate the value Of their friendship as well
as to trust their discretion and integrity.
Any one knowing Mr.. Fairbanks in his
family life would have difficulty in under
standing where his reputation for GOODNESS
took its start, for the Vice President as
husband and father is almost ideal, and
affection. sympathy and humor are con-
stantly In exchange between himself and
the members of his family and his intimate
friends.

delegation. Mr.. Fairbanks eSpoused the
cause of Gresham. He went about the
state drumming up delegates and making
friends, and accompanied Mr.. Gresham to
the convention. 1t was Mr.. Fairbanks who
informed Mr.. Gresham that it was all up
with him, whereupon Mr.. Gresham made
his oft-quoted remark, We'll, If it is all
up with me you'd better take my pup out

Mr.. Fairbanks went back home and con-
tinued his interest in politics. He aspired
to no minor office, but started out to make
friends for Charles Warren Fairbanks. for
future delivery. He made speeches for the
party in various campaigns, and always
from a disinterested standpoint, for he was
a candidate for no Office
1t is interesting to note his policy in his
political career from that time on. He kept
aloof from the petty squabbles of the re-
publicans over state affairs. But 1t will be
seen that he was the caucus nominee of
his party for United States senator in 1893,
at a time when the democrats controlled
the legislature. in 1896 he appears at the
republican national convention at st. Louis

sport to set fire to the shavings in the log
cabin and before the blaze was discovered
and extingnished the historic structure was
badly damaged. No one acquainted with
the Fairbanks of today, consummate poll
tician that he is, can help shuddering at
the idea that he all but succeeded in de-
stroying a valuable political asset-the log
cabin birthplace of the latter-day west
erner. This happened out in Union county,
Ohio. The Fairbanks were of that sturdy
New England stock which built up the mid
die states. The head of the American branch
of the family was Jonathan Fayrebanke,
Englishman, who settled at Dedham. Mass,
in 1885, The old homestead is still in the
family. They were hardy folk and finally
the offshoots drifted westward.
Lorriston Monroe Fairbanks, father OF
Charles Warren, was thrifty farmer In
Ohio. They say he was fine figure of
man, as tall as his son now is and much
heavier. of a kindly disposition. but very
firm character. He was a noted abolition
list and was said to have been familiar
with the underground road by which
slaves escaped to the north.
Born on Farm.
Charles Warren, born on the farm in
1852, was not considered much of prodi-
gy in his youth. He went to the common
schools. did chores on the farm, had red
cheeks and ehapped hands in the winter
time played hockey and got licked like
other boys. He was very fond of the water
and was the champion swimmer of the
neighborhood and often has told how he
got whipped for staying out of school to
go swimming He had squirrel gun and
being a good shot furnished fresh meat in
squirrel season. He has the old gun now
and if truth were known probably slips
out into the White river bottoms and takes
a crack at bushy tail occasionally
He graduated from the Wesleyan Uni
versity at Delaware, Ohio. in 1872 and stud
led law. His uncle, William Henry Smith,
was then at the head of the Associated
