Where Lincoln was Married.

The cid Edwards home on South
Second street, Springfield, H., where
Abraham Lincoln and Mary Todd were
married, which was later converted in
to ST. Agatha's school under the
direction Of the Episcopal church in
that diocese, has been made into one
of the most beautiful homes in Spring,
field
The old residence has witnessed
some interesting events during its
life. The old house as 1t was had
many hooks and corners, its old-fa.
shioned statcliness added to the charm
Of romance. and many were the stories
told by schoolgirls of how Lincoln
was married in this room and dined in
another
The front parlor, where Lincoln
was married has been changed, IN
that one large massive window re-
places the former low Wrench win
doWs, Of which there were two A new
front door has bees put in, which
is pity, as the old one OF heavy oak
seemed part of the house and had
swung open to admit some of the most
ilmstrious men and women of the state
and country. The big entrance hall
and stairway will remain the same as
when Mary Todd came down the oaken
steps to her wedding
For over a year no one occupied the
home, but now it has put on again its
oldtime Importance and. being sit
uated as ii is, far back in the yard,
surrounded with trees and shrubs, It
makes in reality one of the city's most
artistic residences.

Did Lincoln Say It?

New York Tribune-The Cleveland
Plain Dealer, after trying for some
time to answer inquiries regarding the
occasion of Abraham Lincoln's use OF
the words You can fool all the peo-
pie some Of the time and some of the
people all of the time, but not all the
people all the time" gives it up.
Colonel Hay was appealed to, but that
biOgrapher of President Lincoln had
to acknowledge he never encountered
the sentence when making minute in
vestigation of Lincoln's speeches, pa
pers, letters and recorded sayings An
Ohio congressman who had been asked
the question referred the inquirer to
the library of congress, where, if any
where, the information could be OBJ
tanned. The Washington Post re-
ports the result. Assistant Librarian
Spofford made 4 written reply, in
which he says the sentence does not
occur in any of Lincoln's writings,
adding that Mr.. Nicoiay, Lincoln's
secretary, and associate of Colonel
John Hay in writing the elaborate
biography of Lincoln, told Spofford
the alleged Lincoln saying was spuri-
Gus. Librarian Spofford says the real
author of the popular sentence was
Phineas 7. Barnum, the famous show
man, who fooled the people" more
successfully than any other man OF
his time.

Yincolniana.

A paragraph has recently started on
its rounds through the press to the
effect that Mrs. Frances c. Hotto has
just died at Pittsburg, Mass, aged 10,
The remarkable point about the par
agraph is that Mrs. Hottie, with her
husband, Harry A. Hotto, was playing
with Thomas and Laura Keene' at
Ford's theater in Washington on the
night that President Lincoln was as
sasslnated. There were no such ac-
tors in the cast, according to the play
bill, and the idea of connecting the
late Thomas w. Keene with the per-
Torrance of Our American Cousin"
on that fatal night is doubtless the
joke Of some would-be wag, but as
anything relating to the death of
Lincoln is sure to be read by the pub
lie, the story of Mrs. Hotto's death
will doubtless be preserved and found
half a century hence in books describ-
ing the assassination.
A statement in late number of the
New York Dramatic Mirror is to the
effect that there are six players now
living who were in the cast on the
night of the tragedy. John Matthews
who played Mr.. Coyle, the attorney,
died in New York City on the 10th of
last month. The six players are May
Hart who acted Georgiana; Jennie
Gourlay (Mrs. Robert Struthars), who
played Mary Trenchard; Miss H
Trueman, who was the Augusta, and
Harry Hawk, w. J. Ferguson and E.
A. Emerson. Both Mr.. Hawk and Mr.
Ferguson are still actively before the
public, but Mr.. Elmer
son retired from the stage years ago,
and at last accounts was a florist in a
southern city.
