An Incident Il J, Lincoln.

When Lincoln was on his way to
assume the Office of president, the
train was delayed at Freedom, Penn
sylyania, by an accident to a. freight
train that was q little way ahead, and
while he was there, saw him again.
Some things happened that have
never seen In print. He was accom-
panied by Major Sumner, whom I
knew as commander of the United
States troops in Kansas, In 1856, and
Colonel Elmer Ellsworth, OF the ce1e-
brated regiment of zouaves. Neither
Major Sumner nor Colonel Ellsworth
was tall, and, as they stood beside
Lincoln on the rear platform, while he
made his address,. they looked shorter
than they really-1were. At the close
of Lincoln's short speech, a coal
HEAVIER called out: "Abe, they say you
are the tallest man in the United
States, but l don't believe you are any
taller than I am" Lincoln replied:
Come up here and let us measure"
The coal HEAVIER pressed his way
through the crowd and climbed on the
platform, where Lincoln and he stood
back to back. Turning to Colonel
Ellsworth, Lincoln said: which is
the taller?" Colonel Ellsworth, being
SO much shorter, could not tell, SO he
climbed on the guard rail, and, put
ting his hand across the top of the
heads of the two men, said: Il believe
they are exactly the same height"
Then Lincoln and the coal HEAVIER
turned around and faced each other.
The crowd shouted loudly when Lin
coin took the black, sooty hand of the

An exchange says when the new
Japanese ambassador comes to Wash
ington his romantic history will APP
peal strongly to the American lover
Of romance. The wife of the ambas-
sador Is not Japanese, but comes of
an autocratic German family and she
suffered social ostracism in her own
country when she married an Oriental.
When she first met the ambassador
he was under secretary of the Japan
ese legation at the court of Berlin
and her father was minor court Of
fetal. The marriage was love af-
fair and the old Kaiser would not
allow her to be received at court and
her husband was recalled to Japan.
He has become useful to the emperor
and now occupies one of the highest
honrs in his power, that of Japanese
ambassador to America. His name is
Viscount Aoki, and it will be watched
with interest how the German lega-
ton will receive the viscountess
There will be no doubt of her re-
ception by the Americans.

The song I dare not sing, for fear
Lest falling suddenly,
The sounds Of weeping, should replace
The tones of melody.

Must still, unspoken be;
The summer flowers, the song OF birds
All tell, oil tell Of thee.
Wander IN the woods and pluck
Which oft in love, I've garlanded
Around thy beautious head.
Beloved. heavens coronals
Adorn thy sainted brow,
And the sweet strains of angels
Are the songs thou nearest now.

Who bravely overcame,

Send one ray from the glory
To ease my spirits pain;
For my human heart is yearning

CAUSE OF TYPHOID.
Bodies OF Thousands OF Young Spar
rows In Reservoir.

Three Oaks. Mich. Especially -
The cause of an epidemic of typhoid
fever among the 1000 inhabitants
of this place was discovered when a
member of the board of health
climbed to the top of the water
works standpipe and found the dead
bodies of several thousand young
sparrows, in various stages of de-
composition, covering the surface of
the water. Immediately the mayor
gave instructions to empty the stand
pipe, scrub and paint it. Hundreds
of sparrows nests have been built
on a ledge that runs around the
summit of the standpipe, and the
young birds are supposed to have
fallen into the uncovered standpipe
while trying to fly. The cover made
for the standpipe when it was con
tructed was never put on. There
are now 21 cases of typhoid in the
town.

Washington, Especially The Gov

on the charge of undue delay in
sending final prints of bills to Con-

session An inquiry into the cause
of delay was made by the Senate
Committee on Printing, the investi-

Howe, clerk of the committee. The
report to Senator Plat, the chair
man, was made public Wednesday.
The inquiry had especial reference
to the General Deficiency Appropri-
alton Bill and the omnibus Public

ed was that the amount of time
consumed in handling these two
measure was mot unreasonable, but
rather positively expeditions. At
ter showing that the bills in ques-

the first session of the Fifty-ninth
Congress exceeded by approximately
three times the amount of work

REFORM IN SPELLING.

Oyster Bay, Especially President
Roosevelt has Endorsed the Carnegie
spelling reform movement. He is
sued orders to Public Printer Still
lings that hereafter all messages
from the President and all other
documents emanating from the White
House shall be printed in accordance
with the recommendation of the spell
ing reform committee headed by
Brander Matthews, professor of Eng
lish at Columbia University, and f.
nancially backed by Andrew Carne-
gle.
This committee has published a
list of 800 words in which the spell
ing is reformed The list contains
such words as thru and tho" as
the spelling for through and
though"
The Presidents official sanction
of this reform movement is regarded
as the most effective and speediest
method of inaugurating the new sys-
tenn of spelling throughout the coun-
try. Not only will the printed docu-
ments emanating from the President
utilize the reform spelling, but his
correspondence also will be spelled
in the new style.
Secretary Loeb has sent for the
list of 800 words which have been
reformed and upon it arrival will
Immediately order all correspondence
of the President and of the executive
force of the White House spelled in
accordance Herewith. AS the spell
ing reform committee shall adopt
new reforms, they will be added TO
the Presidents list and also to that
of the Public Printer.
While the order to the Public
Printer today does not contemplate
an immediate reform in the spelling
of official documents from the execu-
tive departments in Washington, 1T
is regarded that more than likely the
respective heads of the departments
will fall in line with the Presidents
idas and have their official documents
printed in the new spelling.
