Tn a speech the other day Colonel Watterson said: There is one thing which seems proper on this occasion to say of any doubt that may have been cast on the paternity of Abraham Lin coin, and that is that there is not, and never has been, a shadow of evidence or reasonable conjecture of any sort to support it. Those who repeat it, or discuss it, merely betray their ignor- ance, if they do not display vicious tendency. Nancy Hanks was modest, Eell-reared young woman. Her people were as respectable as any people of the vicinage. Not a breath of scandal was ever heard until she had lain ill her grave half a century. Abraham Lincoln was her second child, born nearly three years after her marriage to Thomas Lincoln. To impeach her integrity is to discredit that of any and every mother who lived in those early days in a part of the world where the home was a sanctuary, the mar riage tie a religion and lewdness con tennptible.

nights ride over mountains. through

in the city. at the last moment granted
q reprieve for one week In order to In
vcstigate Conley's alleged insanity.
How to get the reprieve to Sheriff Lu-
cero OF Taos was puzzle to the gov
ernor, as Taos Is forty miles from the
closest telegraphic connections. and
the small stations In that section oil
New Mexico close at 4 y. nn.
The governor wired to Tres.Piedras
and then Espanola. but at one place
no operator could be reached and at
the other no courier could be obtained
TO venture with the reprieve to Taos
for fear that friends OF the dead men
would interrupt and cause trouble.
Embudo was next tapped. and after
a delay an operator received the mes
sage. A trusted messenger. with In
structions to spare no expense In new
mounts on the road. was secured and
sent from EmbudO toward Taos with
the important reprieve telegram.
He reached Taos just before day
break, after hard. forced ride. ana de-
livered the telegram to Sheriff Lucero'
who told the gathering crowd that the
