A Ne.D Lincoln Story

. Justice Harlan tells a very interest.
ing anecdote Of President Lincoln On
which was related to him by Joshua
p. Speed Of Kentucky, who was the
most intimate friend Mr.. Lincoln had
during the earlier part of his residence
in Springfield. Tt illustrates in q
striking manner Mr.. Lincoln Is tender
ness of heart and the kindly impulses
of his nature.
. Mr.. Speed says that the Judges of
the court were on the regular circuit
group. of the leading lawyers of central
Illinois. were riding from one county
seat to another as terrible storm
came up. The wind was blowing a
hurricanes; the clouds were threatening
and the court, with its retinue, was
hurrying along the highway to find
shelter before being caught in the
downpour. Mr.. Lincoln, who was rid
ing in the scavalcade on the outside,
next to the fields, saw bird flying
about loe in great distress. he dropped
threw the bride over rail, climbed
a fence, and began to look around
to see what was the matter. He soon
discovered that nest full Of birdlings
had been blown from the crotch of a
tree. The little ones, which had just
been Matched, were scattered helpless in
the field, and the mother was frantic
with excitement and anxiety over the
accident. Mr.. Lincoln recovered the
nest, put it in a sheltered place, hunted
around in the grass until he had found
every one Of the brood, and restored
them to safety.
In the meantime the cavalcade had
gone on at full gallop, and had long
been out Of sight. He remounted his
horse and hurried after them, but was
overtaken by the storm, and when he
reached shelter was soaked to the skin.
His fellow members Of the bar and
the judges chaffed him about the ad-
venture, and reproached him for his
folly in exposing himself to the
weather. And they made fun of him,
because he was compelled to go to
bed until the only suit of clothes he
owned could be dried at the kitchen
stove. He took the chatting good
naturally and explained that he Ejust
had to Stop; that he "would not
have been able to sleep that night;
nor would he have been able to fix
his mind upon his law cases for thinking
of the distress of that poor mother
bird, and the danger that her brood
was exposed to-

HE WOULD TAKE A CHANCE

MAN, 81, healthy, interesting medical
history, to undergo any operation
where chance of recovery; highest
offer; genuine.-Address 10537, Daily
Mail, London. -..
The above advertisement is repeated
from the "Agony Column of today's
Daily Mail, to which it was sent last
week. A representative Of the Daily
Mail found the advertiser on Saturday
working on a Mendip farm. Half
French and of sailorlike appearance,
with rather long curly hair showing be-
meath his cap, he was no ordinary farm
hand such as his fellowworker, Som
erset son of the SOIL The woman who
owned the farm stated that her strange
employee was most active and willing
man, well educated and pianist. Hale
and hearty. he appeared to be.
Are you a doctor?'' was the man g
first. question to the Daily Mail repre-
sentative, after an exchange of greet
ings. He added that his offer to sacri-
flee himself to any medical man in or
der, that the knowledge Of the human
was made in ali seriousness. Being
asked why, he briefly related the story
of his life. r. ~ - ~
! AS youth he was in turn cotton
sampler at Manchester and a book
maker. Being partly Of French extrac-
tion, he served his time in the Chas-
seurs d'Afrique at Algiers, and then,
coming to England, spent two years
with the One Hundred and Sixth bat
terry of the Royal Field artillery, and
afterwards joined the Royal Marine
Light infantry 49,.
Being invalided out, he walked from
Chatham to Manchester and on to Liv-
erpool in quest Of work. None was to
be had, however, and he had after
yards tramped to Bristol, Exeter and
Plymouth. Finally he found himself
doing odd jobs in Somerset-painting,
giving lessons on the piano, and put
ting in spare time on field work. Such
in outline was his story.
+. Now he is quite ready to undergo any
operation, "with a sporting chance Of
recovery for a consideration. He is
not afraid of the knife, and eff T. am
sent to sleep altogether, what matterg''
he asked. ." =. -.
His question was unanswered, as
very probably. will be his strange offer.

POLICE MADE MISTAKE.
Bartender, Arrested for Doing Buslness Without License lind Permission.

without License Had Permission.
 M. w. Cloud, a 17-year- youth, who has been employed as bartender for Mrs. NJ. F. Hulen. at the corner of Hall and High Streets, has some reason to feel aggrieved at the man ner in which he was made the plaything of fate for a time Saturday after noon
 All the licenses of the city, as is well known, expired on September 30, last, and it was necessary for those who desired to engage in business of any kind to renew their licenses after De- tober l. So, J. B Berger. who had been engaged in the saloon business at the corner of Hall and High Streets applied to the City Council for re- newal of his permit to do business. But 1t was in vain. Mir. Berger did not seem to be in the good graces of the Aldermen, and the Police Commit tee, after long and mature deliberation. agreed to report adversely upon Mir. Berger's application.
 ThereupOn. a new application for a license, at the same place, was made by Mrs. Hulen, q sister of Berger, and was promptly rejected by the commit tee, upon the theory that 1t was mere " subterfuge. and that, in all prob ability, should Mrs. Hulen be granted 8 license, her brother would conduct the establishment the same as hereto fore This double rejection was report cd to the Council last Monday even ing and was sustained by that body.
 It was reported to the police yes terday that fhe establishment was be- ing conducted in spite of the fact that no license had been granted, and that the application for one had been re- jected by the Council.

 They found the place in full opera- tion. as had been reported. Upon this assurance lthat the place was really in operation, they arrested Bartender Cloud, and escorted him to police head quarters.
 Just at this juncture in the proceed-

 Mrs. Hulen now owned the premises and would conduct them in proper manner in the future
 Acting upon these approximations, a second application had been filed with Clerk Farley of the City Council for a iiuuor license, and 1t had been agreed,
 unknown to the police officers who ar rested Cloud, that the place might be run for a few days, pending action 1 by the Council on the new application for license.
 Cloud was at once released from cus- tody as soon as the chain of misun-
 derstood circumstances was explained.
