ANDREW JoHNsoN's END.
To the Last He Was Bitter Against
General Grant.

William H. Crooks "reminiscences of
ANDREW johnson in the White House
deal in the October Century with that
Presidents impeachment, trial and ac-
Initial, and his last days. Mr.. Crook
says:
There was one man of those whom he
considered his enemies whom Mr. john
son had not forgiven. 1t was only day
or two after he took his seat in the Sen
ate that he sent for me to come to his
hotel-the old Willard, on Pennsylvania
avenue. 1 found him, on a nearer view,
looking very little changed. He was old
er, of course; there was more gray in his
hair; his whole face looked bleached.
He seemed finer to me; not less strong,
but more delicate. There were no more
lines in his face; those that had been
there were deeper craven; that was all
asked for all the family, and he told
me what there was to tell. Mrs. john
son, I knew, was still living, but poor
Robert johnson had died soon after his
father returned to Tennessee. He spoke
to me of them both. The grandchildren
were growing up. He told me of his
fight for election.
And now" he said "I want you to
tell me where I can find notices about
Grant in my scrapbook. You remember
The Birmingham age-herald. [volume] (Birmingham, Ala.) 1902-1950, 1908-09-27

where you pasted them in. I don't" He
got the scrapbooks and I put strips OF
paper in to mark the references he want
ed AS I rose to go he said:
Crook, I have come back to the Sem
ate with two purposes. One is to do
what l can to punish the southern brig
adiers They led the south into secession,
and they have never had their deserts.
The other" He paused, and his face
darkened.
What is the other. Mr. Johnson" I
asked.
THE other is to make a speech against
Grant. And I am going to make it this
session"
He made the speech in less than two
weeks from that evening. 1t was a clever
one, too, and bitter. Every point of Cen
eral Grants career which might be con-
sidered vulnerable was very skillfully at
tackled. The fact that he had t. zen
gifts and that it was suspected that he
desired a third term were played upon.
Yes, Mr.. Johnson did what he had in
tended to do, had been intending to do
ever since he left the White House. He
was the best hater l ever knew.
He went back home at the end of the
session, and then to visit his daughter,
Mrs. Slower, in eastern Tennessee. There,
given up to the family associations he
chung to, and with the grandchildren he
loved he was stricken suddenly with
paralysis, and July 81, 1875, he died. It
seemed as If, with his speech against
President Grant, some spring of action
which had kept him fighting broke The
rest was peace.

faces which indicate that life has been a
disappointme to US instead of a glorious
joy. 1t shows that we have missed the
real object of living; that we have never
caught glimpse of the realities of life,
but that we are living in the shadows, in
the gloom instead of the sunshine Of
reality, of truth, Of beauty 1t indicates
that we have not even caught glimpse
of the real glory of life.
Multitudes of men and women would be
sick in bed If they could afford 1t: but
the hungry mouths to feed, the children
to clothe, these ard all the other obliga-
tions of life SO press upon them that they
cannot stop working; they must keep
going whether they feel like it or not
Never allow yourself to think about
or to speak of that which you do not
wish to become true. Do not give the
forbidden picture a chance to etch itself
upon your mind.
The glory of love is that it delights in
doing for nothing what nobody else will
do for money.

Nuooets from Success Magazine.

Make it a life rule never to be disturbed
or thrown off your balance by anything
that can happen.
The hardest thing ABOUT getting saiong
with disagreeable people is that you can
not let them know what you really thlnS

..What IL God? God is that All, that
infinite All, of which l am conscious OF
being part. and therefore all in me Is
encompassed by God, and I feel Him IN
everything -.
DO not go through life doing little
things painfully when you were maze
to do great things grandly, happily.
Never allow yourself to live Tor any,
thing less than your highest IDEAL Il
you do you will deteriorate.

discovered at 4 o'clock 10 the morning
of October &c, when the vessel wss $50
miles south OF Sandy Hook. The pas

don the ct amer.
The heat and smoke from the fire
forced the Passengers to withdraw from
their cabins, and temporary cots and
estiDg-tables were placed on the prone
mad deck for them. The cause Of the
ms Is not known. 1t was impossible TO
gain access to the mold, Tho officers did
cot dare to open the patches to combat
the FIRE 10 the fear that the draft thus
created would tal the flames. Holes
we're bored in the deck and all the steam
1t was possssible to spare from the engines
was forced through them into the hold.
Water vas also pumped bslow. Several
of the members of the crew we're over
come by the fumes during the work OF
putting these FIRE extiDguishing plans
into operation, but they were promptly
revived.
