Iincoln's Repartee.

Uncle Joe Cannon. the speaker of

istic one on Honest Abe" Lincoln,
says the New York World: 1T was at
the Illinois state convention at Deca-
tur. held to name delegates to the ma
tionai convention that nominated Lin
coin for the presidency. After the
prayer a cry was started on the plat
form: Open a passageway! Open a
passageway! Let Dennis Hanks and
Dick Oglesby through. They have some
rails that Dennis Hanks and Abe Lin
coin made in 1890"
They came in with the rails, which
had a piece of cotton cloth rolled
round them bearing the legend. Those
rails were made by Dennis Hanks and
Abraham Lincoln in 1890 They were
walnut rails, such as would be hard to
| find now. but there was plenty of that
kind of fine hardwood in those days.
| The crowd went wild, and it was some
| time before order was restored. There
| was yell for Lincoln. At this stage
of the proceedings some fellow yelled
out, Abe, did you split them rails?
Said he: Dennis Hanks says 1 split

Not DebatabIe Question.
1.-The question of co-education is no
longer fairly debatable. 1t has settled
itself by the necessities of the case
The mems colleges, are crowded. The
women'S colleges are overcrowded. and
there is absolutely no economical adj
vantage whatever in uniting them.
This is particularly true in the states l
am now considering namely, the mid
die and New England states.
''One of the first things which the
general education board will now turn
its attention to will be the remedying
of this Overcrowded condition either by
the establishment of new womens col
leges or by the enlargement of those
which now exist. We shall ask the
hearty cooperation not only of the
special friends of those colleges. but
of phiIanthropists generally, for let me
point out an extremely important fact
frequently overlook - colleges for
men. when such colleges have been
founded for Il generation or two. can
safely rely upon their alumni to do
no small part of the work of increasing
| their resources and keeping them up
| to the times. for no college can keep up
to the times unless its resources are
| heavily increased annually.
But the alumnac of the wOmen's

| either enter literature or the teaching
profession or else they marry. If they
| marry they are almost certain to marry
college men, and if their husbands are
| wealthy these husbands are very GER
| tain to give their money to their own
college rather than TO their wives col
| lege. The women's colleges are there
| fore helpless. Let philanthrOpists rec
ogniZe this and particularly phiiau-
thropists who are not committed ir-
| revocably to some particular college
from which they have graduated.
The most immediate and impcra-
tive educational need untitled today
in the New England and middle states
is that of the wornen's colleges. Don't
forget it.
1T is not likely the board will for
the present give any money TO the
great seats of learning in the east for
the reason that Mr.. Rockefeller before
making this last gift distributed large
| sums among them. He gave Harvard
and Yale each Il million and Johns Hop
kins half Il million. He also gave sew
eral hundred thousand to Columbia uni.
versity. To Bryn Mawr. Vassar. Smith
Wellesley and Mount Holyoke Mr.
Rockefeller has i'll the last three years
given on an average of S25O.O0O each.
"All funds possible will be dstrib
uted on the condition that the institu
tions benefited also raise money. IL
some cases it is believed that with the
impetus of the funds of the genera
board the colleges which are to ge
money may raise four times the amount
bestowed upon them"

sign of friendship that is shown to the

those principles or any symptom of in
dividual taste or strength of mind will
sound the first challenge of unpnpulari-
