DROVE FOR LINCOLN.
A Kansan's Recollection of Boyhood
DAYS in Illinois.

Abraham Lincoln was the best man |
ever saw said Witchita's old auctioneer
the other day. ]. A. Benper is q years
of age and probably the Oldest succcsstul
auctioneer in the State of Kansas.
1t is known among the friends OF the
old auctioneer, says the Wichita Eagle.
that he and Abraham Lincoln were warm
friends along in the early fifties. When
Mr.. Benner was waiting for a SAFE the
other day he came over and sat on tne
curbing in front OF the Eagie ONCE ana
some of the boys got to taking ABOUT
Lincoln. Did you consider Mr.. Dincoin
a very God man. asked a young man
who had evidently read OF the martyrea
President in his school history.
The plucky cid auctioneer seemed 70 De
horriaed at the question. He wondered
that ANYBODY could ask such a question.
His hin dropped and he spread out ms
hands palm upward like one in the pres
ence of what he considered some great
sacrilege. and said: rOh, he was the very
ageous as he was good In his treatment
Of men he was a prince: and his every
thought the man with an apron cutting
stone or the man with overalls carrying
brick al good as the President or the
United States. He was great by nature
and the assumed greatness Of small men
failed to impress him.
ny father used to own a livery barn
at Urbana in Champaign County. w. w.
Davis was Judge Of hat judicial district
and Leonard Sweat was State Attorney.
He and Judge Davis were great friends
OF Lincoln. and when Mr.. Lincoln was
elected President he appointed Judge
Davis a Judge Of the Supreme Court of
the United States he very first oppor-
tunity.
II was considered a kid by those men
when I first became acquainted with
them. Lincoln had partners in those oun
ties. and when they would get cases Of inn
portance Lincoln would come over from
Springfield to help them, and of course
he was at Urbans, Nation and Danyille
every term of court. Father had a double
seated carriage and a fine team of bob
tailed sorrel horses. used to take that
rig and drive Judge Davis. Mr.. Lincoln
and Leonard Sweat from Urbana to Mat
toon and Danville and go after them when
thew got ready to come back. They used
to depend on the carriage and the kid,
buff they called me the boy. That was
before they had learned to call young peo-
pie kids.
LINCOLN was a great talker and they
used to have lively times on those trips.
| have often thought that l never saw
one Of the party take a drink. Men in
clined to drink would certainly have had
something along on such trips. The very
fact hat they did not have anything along
has convinced me that none OF them ever
took a drink"

TAFT AS A DANCER.
The Secretary a Graceful Devotee Of
Terpischore,. Despite Avoirdupois.

The people of the United States have
been pretty we'll informed of all the ac-
complishments and good qualities of
Secretary Taft, and they thought they
knew about all that the genial Secre-
thai the Secretary gave his brilliant
reception at the New Willard to Cen
eral Kuroki he demonstrated that
among his other accomplishments was
tina of being a graceful dancer. and
that he could waltz, despite his 300
pounds, as well as the youngest officer
in the army. If Secretary Taft be-
comes the Republican candidate for
President, the Washington Star be-
lieves, he is pretty sure of getting the
solid vote of the dancing men. On the
night In question the Secretary had
manfully gone through the task Of
being host at the most brilliant mill
tary dinner ever given in this country,
and then stood for several hours greet
ing and shaking hands with at least
1 200 people at the reception which fol-
lowed.

young ladies present were equally as
anxious to dance, and when the Marine

of the evening, could not resist the
music, and choosing M of the most

movements. put to shame many of the
younger members of the army who
were tripping the light fantastic. He
danced OUT the number, and when
the band played another waltz he chose
another partner, and, as she put it,

SUNDAY.
RANGE OF PRICES.
Cattle.

Receipts were of fair proportion today
and If there was any change in the char
acter Of the offerings the quality was not
SO good as yesterday.
On account of the improved tone to re-
ports from eastern markets and the bet
ter general demand, the market was rath-
er more active than yesterday and prices
were shade higher for desirable cattle
of all weights. While the demand was
largely consigned to local dressed beef
men, there was enough inquiry for ship
ping account to make good lively mar
lSet and practically everything was dis
posed of some time before noon.
The supply Of COW stuff was not very
heavy, with the demand somewhat more
vigorous than it has been lately. The
trade was lively and prices shade high
er than yesterday for all useful offerings.
Veal calves, bulls stays, etc, were
picked up freely at steady to strong
prices, and the tone to the market was
healthy and firm throughout.
There ws@ a good inquiry from both
yard trader and country buyers for de-
cattle of good weight and quality and
prices were fully as high as they have
been any time this season On the other
hand, there was disposition on the part
of buyers to discriminate against the
light and medium weight stuff unless IL
had the quality. Grass is little back
ward and the country is evidently not
anxious to stock up with light stuff until
the pastures are in good shape to receive
them Prices for the light weights were
generally a shade lower than Yesterday
and 10d15c lower than the close of last
week
