At Ottawa Mr.. Douglas put to Mr..

IA which upon their next meet
ing lat FreeporD MI. Lincoln
answered as follows:
81 have supposed myself since the or
ganization of the Republican party at
Bloomington in May, 1856. bound as a
party man by the platforms of the par
ty then and since. If, in any interrog-
atories which I shall answer, I go be-
yond the scope of what is within these
platforms 1t will be perceived that no
is responsible but myself.
"Having said thus much, / will take
up the judges interrogatories as I find
them printed in the Chicago Times
and answer them seriatim. In order
that there may be no mistake about it
l have copied the interrogatories in
writing and also my W to them.
The first one of these interrogatories
is in these words:
"Question IL desire to know wheth-
or Lincoln today stands, as he did in
1854, In favor of the unconditional re-
peal of the fugitive slave law
"Answer.-I do not now nor ever did

Mapmakinq.

The earliest maps of which we have
any knowledge were made in Egypt.
They were wooden tablets, on which
were traced land and sea. roads, rivers,
highways, etc. Marinus of Tyre, $50
A. d., was the first to attempt a map
on scientific principles. The maps in
use by the Greeks and Romans were
fairly accurate, SC far as they went,
but those in use during the middle
ages were alarmingly inaccurate. 1t
is only within recent years, say since
the middle of the last century, that 1t
was possible to make a complete and
reliable map of the world, and even
yet the best map is subject to slight
changes.-New York American.

predicted that In event of conviction
young Thomas would get on with
small fine instead of tho maximum
punishment which in his case would
be two years Imprisonment and
fine of 81 900.
The Indictment explains the meth.
cd by which Thomas speculated with
the money of the pollcyholders of the
Provident Life. It says he had an ac
count with Thomas, Maclay & Co. on
April 2, 1907, and was indebted to
them for large sums for purchases
of stock made on margin. At the
same time Thomas, Maclay & Co
owed various banks large sums, the
loans being secured with collateral
The indictment says that the securi.
ties up against these loans were not
listed on the Stock Exchange and
were Of doubtful value.
The indictment gives list of 5000.
600 of loans made to Thomas, Maclay
d Co. on account of Il. Il. Thomas, as
follows:
"a loan of 100000 made to Thorn.

and the Indictment adds:
Thomas, Maclay & Co. did not

to pay the said loan, whereupon 1t be.

put up against the 100000 OF other

the market at a sacrifice. Il. II.
Thomas, because OF his guarantee,
