PRESIDENT SMITH REPLIES
 TO THE GOVERNORS MESSAGE

in tine message of Governor Conner and seriaIly. he takes up the statements which he says misrepresents him.
 MT. Smith Is most vigorous perhaps in his denial of the Govefhor's state ment that he had admitted that his road had dominated the policy and politics of the state. He asks the Governor to specify when he ever made any such statement and he says: \ q assert most emphatically that I never made any such statement or ad- mission"
 The letter follows:

 bama
 Dear sIr-Permit me to call your attention to some of the many errone- ous statements contained in your mes- sage of this date addressed to the Legislature of Alabama.
 Some "Erroneous. Statements.
 You say: The Southern Railroad then agreed with this modification to put in your passenger rate bill You mean, of course, the modified rate, or two and three-fourth instead of two and one-half cents per mile.
 You say: The officials of the Allan tic Coast Line, Frisco, Seaboard and Birmingham and Atlantic have put your statutes into operation pending litigation, and all of them express themselves as disposed to giving the statutes fair trial Do you not mean that they have put the rates in effect while the question of their legality is being litigated?
 You charge that I stated in pub lie speech at New Orleans that you were populistic, and that the Governor of Georgia was populistic. What did state was as follows: "' To add to the anxieties, the own- CTS of railway properties are threatens ed with loss, possible confiscation, by the people; not that the people as a whole are antagonistic to vested or property rights, but are to an extent debauched by leaders who for selfish reasons-hope of preferment-per- sistently and vociferously denounce corporations.

LINCOLN AND WORDEN.
A Yarn of Their Affecting Meeting at
the Latter,s sickbed.

A Lincoln story which, according to
the Youths Companion, has, perhaps,
never before been printed, is told by
one who had 1t from the lips of Rear
Admiral John l.. Worden, who, as
lieutenant, commanded the Monitor in
its fight with the Merrimac. When the
Monitor was in process of construction
there vas considerable discussion at.
Washington as to who should command
it. AS the vessel was in so many ways
an experimental craft, it was felt to
be not entirely a proper thing to order
anyone to take charge of 1t, and the
idea of calling for volunteers was con-
sidered. A friend of Lieutenant Wor-
den, however, suggested his name. He
was asked If he would take the COM
mand, and he gladly accepted it.
When he had made the emergency
run from New York, on the receipt of
news that the Merrimac was destroying
the Union fleet, and after he had de-
feated the Confederate ironelad, Lieu
tenant Worden was taken, wounded
and unconscious, from his ship and es-
corted back to Washington by the same
friend whoshad suggested his name
an officer on duty at navy head
quarters. At this friends house he was
cared for.
On the morning after the battle at
Hampton Roads President Lincoln and
the members of his cabinet held a
meeting to consider the various aspects
of the battle, and the naval officer was
called in, as a witness of the battle, to
describe 1t.
Where is Lieutenant Worden now ?"
asked the President.
"At my house, sir" replied the officer.
The President reached for his hat. and
a moment later the meeting adjourned.
81 don't know what you gentlemen
are going to>do,' he said, but for my
part I am going to pay my respects to
the young mai who fought that battle"
He went directly to the sickroom
where Worden lay, blindfolded and in
great pain. Without speaking, he
reached out his great hands, and folded
them over one of Worden's.
Someone told Worden that it was
President Lincoln who had come.
you do me a great honor, sir"
he said. President Lincoln stroked
his hand.
"You need no man to do you honor,
lieutenant" he said, for you have done
great honor to yourself and your coun-
try"
In all his life thereafter Admiral
Worden declared that nothing ever
moved him as did the grasp of the
Presidents hands and the deep, thrill
ing sympathy in his voice. In the
course Of that visit President Lincoln
told the lieutenant that promotion was
awaiting him

INDIAN ANGLING.
How the Red Man Fished efore Uncle
Sam Came.


As a rule, indians are expert fishermen,
after a fashion of their own, though there
are some red men who will have nothing
to do with n fish. With the Navajos Of
the Arizona desert region, for instance, fish
are strictly tabooed, there being a super
stition in that tribe that a fish taken into
the omach will come to life again.
Even before the advent of the whites,
Indian fishermen understood the art Of
angling with a hook and line, the latter
being made of the tough fibre or bark or
various plants, while the hooks were fash
Toned of bone or shell. The aborigines or
the California coast made very beautiful
hooks of the iridescent abalone shell, three
styles of which are depicted in he accom-
panying sketch. Their barbed hooks were
especially curious-the barb instead of be-
Ing on the inside. as we are accustomed 10
see being on the outside.
The spear was another fishing implement
much employed. The Yosemite Indians
lied lightly to the pole with a cord-the
cord being attached to the middle of the
Done When the fish was speared its
struggles would release the point from
the pole, and the fisherman. by pulling,
could make IL turn crosswise in the wounds
and act as a barb.
The construction of traps of wicker work,
set in the. apex of two converging wing
dams in shallow rapids, was also under
stood by aboriginal fishermen. and was
an effectiye way Of catching fish in noun

also used a sort of conical net or sack
about a foot and a half long and four
inches in diameter made of the woven
leaves Of the common rush. With this net
IN his hand the Indian would wade into a
pool where fish were and chase them about
until In their fright they would dart into
the open end OF the net. This Of
fishing required much patient skill, and
was probably followed more as an amuse-
ment than as a business.
Or all Indian methods of fishing the most
effective as to. results was the practise Of
Supplying the fish with certain plants.
As Is well known, the Indians knowledge
OF the essential properties of the plants
of his region Is quite thorough. and he
found on the Pacific coast alone some
six or seven that would put fish to sleep.
The soap root, the buckeye, the turkey
mullen and blue curls were among these
wild drugs" and the process employed
was simply to crush The leaves or root
and throw the mass into pools or quiet
reaches OF fish-bearing streams. The fish
would become speedily stupehed and float
up to the surface OF the water, where
they would be scooped into baskets; This
practise, being very destructive. Is now
legally forbidden Philadelphia Record,
