HAML|N CENTENARY
LINcoLN'S FIRST RUNNING MATE
ALSO BORN IN 1909.
Martyred President Six Months Ola
When Maine Man Was Born
Joke Lost Him Only Defeat
in His State.

Portland, Me.-The present year is
a notable one because of the fact that
during it the one hundredth anniver-
and a number of other prominent men
will be celebrated.
1t is a rather singular coincidence
that Hannibal Hamlin, who was Lin
coins running mate in the memorable
campaign of 1860, is also one of those
who was born in the year 1909, having
made his first cry in the world on the
23d of August of that year, and when
Abraham Lincoln was months and
II days old.
Hannibal Hamlin was the son of DR.
Cyrus Hamlin, who emigrated from
Massachusetts and settled in the town
of Livermore, in Maine, and shortly
afterward removed to Paris Hill in the
town of Paris, about 46 miles north OF
Portland, where Hannibal was born in
a house yet standing.
The first vice-president of the Re
publican party hustled on farm when
boy and as soon as he was high
enough to look over a case worked in
the composing room of the jefferson.
ian, weekly Democratic paper. 1t
was to his many-sided views of life OBJ,
| tanned on a newspaper that he as.
cribed much of his later success.
| Working by day and studying law
by night, he forged ahead and soon
began practicing law, finally settling
in the town of Hampden, few miles
from the city of Bangor, Penobscot
county, Me.
His entrance into public life was
made when he was elected to the
Gilpin observer., 1909-02-25

Maine legislature in 1887, and the mex,
year was made speaker of the house.
This was followed by four years in
the lower house of congress and nine
years in the senate, from which he re.
signed in 1857 to become the first Re.
publican governor of Maine. The next
year he returned to the senate and
four years later again resigned to be
lnaugurated vice-president of the Uni
ted States when Lincoln was made
president.
When Lincoln was nominated at
Baltimore in 1864 Hamlin was super
seded by Andrew Johnson, but the
change proved unfortunate for the Re-
publican party, and the extent to
which Lincoln was responsible for it
is discussed even to this late day.
The retirement of Hamlin was a
grievous disappointment to the people
of Maine, and they realized its conse-
quences more fully after the assassi-
nation of Lincoln, which deprived their
favorite son from becoming president
of the United States. Shortly after his
retirement as vice-president Hamlin
on his way to that country made a
tour of England. He was especially
interested in the great cathedrals,
but dryly remarked that he found
more "relics than religion"
In 1869 he again entered the United
States senate, where he remained 12
years, when he voluntarily retired,
after having been almost constantly in
public life for so years. He was the
most fortunate of all Maine politicians,
having never been defeated in his own
state but once in his many contests,
and that was the first time he was a
candidate for the United States sem
ate. He lost by single vote thrown
by member of the legislature at
whom he had previously joked on the
score of bald head.
After the close OF his political career
he retired to his farm in the suburbs
of Bangor, where his remaining years
were passed as a farmer. Hamlin al
ways advised young men to stick to
the farm, claiming that too many good
farmers were spoiled in many cases to
make poor politicians. 1t was Hannibal
Hamlin's custom on pleasant days to
work in the forenoons with his hired
men on the farm. and to go to the city
In the afternoon.
It was popularity of Hamlin's
never to wear an overcoat, and SC
democratic was he that It was no un-
common thing in Bangor to see the
ex-governor, ex-vice-president and FIVE
time United States senator riding into
the city on a market wagon filed with
the produce Of the farm.
On the afternoon OF July 4, 1891, he
was stricken with apoplexy while con-
versing with friends at the rooms Of
the Tarrantine club in Bangor, and
quietly passed away few moments
after his wife and children had
reached his side

n ASHIONS for baby may sound
bit far-fetched, yet fashions
there are. just as surely as for
grown ups. OF course there are

is first to be basted on, with the rib
bons for fastening basted on where
the stitching will pass over them and
hold them in place.
The two little sacques in the lower
part of the sketch are also machine
made. One is of white outing flannel
with pink dot, and pink wash ribbon
binding and bows. The other is of
white cashmere, with blue and white
ribbon. The remaining jacket is of
white flannel, with buttonholed edges
and ribbons of pink. This is one of
the best models for a jacket, as 1t
opens out fiat, all in one piece, thus
making it very easy to launder. There
are ribbons tied under the arm to
hold the garment in place. For sum-
mer, this is an ideal model carried out
in pique, with colored ribbon, and
little embroidery. The edges may be
ribbon bound if there is no time for
hand work, but every baby should
boast two or three hand embroidered
jackets for best
Though the outer garment may be
made satisfactorily, even daintily, by
machine, ii is absolutely essential
that the underclothing be handmade.
Machinerun seams are hard and ridgy,
and make the wee one uncomfortable.
All seams must be sewn as flat and
smooth as possible.
The little white dresses are the
prettiest things imaginable. Only
very fine lace should be used, If any.
If possible, real valenciennes or very
fine white cluny is best. The most
delicate hand embroidery is very
charming-veritable fairy tracery. OF
course, this is not practical for the
average woman, but the little frock
may be fine and pretty, though per-
fectly plain. A baby is the daintiest,
cleanest thing in the world, and one
would no more think of putting a
hard, coarse cotton dress on it than
one would think of putting bunch of
American Beauty roses in a wooden
scrubbing pail.
The little gowns should be made of
nainsook, null, batiste or handker-
chief linen, or fine lawn. The bishop
style is very quaint, and the little
round yokes are pretty. The neck
and wristband must not be too toght.
Some very pretty little dresses may
be found in the shops for quite reason
able sums. So many are necessary for
the babykins that it Is as well to buy
few ready made.
So much for the dresses. Then there
are the bootees. These are adorable
things, quite fit to tread the roseihued
path of infancy There is simply an
endless variety of baby shoes. Three
are shown in the sketch; n pair of
costly fieece-lined bootees, another of
pink taffeta with ribbon rosettes, and
pair of soft kid Indian moccasins.
Put this very mannish form of baby
footgear on wee boy, and he will

Gilpin observer., 1909-02-25

there are. just as surely as for
grown ups. OF course there are
not the whimsical vagaries of
thI Paris modes. but each year one
finds preferences for certain styles
and materials in baby clothes. One
might call this corduroy" year, for
that is the favorite material for coats
for the wee ones. One of the best
festures of corduroy is that it laun
ders beautifully. 1t comes in many
lovely colors, and is particularly pref
ty IN white. 1t would be difficult to
imagine a sweeter or more cozy-
looking coat and bonnet for very
sn,sll baby than one of white cordu-
roy.
Snowy eiderdown is another favo-
rite material for the tiny ones winter
c,at. 1t is very warm lightweight
material. A coat of white eiderdown
il shown in the upper right-hand cor
neg of the sketch. 1t is cut with the
sleeves and body in one piece, kimo-
nv fashion.
These are the newest lines in a ba-
bSs coat, and they are very becoming.
1t does away with the little shoulder
cape, which must be great discom-
fort to the child, for the capes are al
ways blowing up into his face on
windy day. In the coat illustrated, a
dainty touch is given by little pink
roeebuds embroidered on the front.
They are done with plain embroi-
dsry stitch, and as there are only a
few of them, it would perhaps take
only an hour of two to work them, and
the result is well worth while.
The bonnet is of eiderdown, with an
embroidered bunch of wee pink rose
buds at each side.
The other sketch is cape and hood
f,yf summer of white cashmere. 1t is
buttonholed with silk and embroi-
dsred in hecorner. The ties and bows
on the hood are of baby blue satin
ribbon, and there Is frill of lace in
side the hood. If one could not put
81 much hand work on the cape, the
same model is very attractive made OF
white challis, henrietta or cashmere,
and bound on the edge with pink or
blue ribbon, in place of the buttonhol-
ing. These capes are very pretty
made of pale blue or sea-shell pink
outing flannel, bound and tied with
matching wash ribbon.
In all babies clothes dalntiness and
simplicity are the keynotes, though
the tiny garments must first be abso-
lutely comfortable.
1t is almost impossible for women
who have many household duties to
attend to do all the baby's sewing
by hand. OF course, 1t is preferable,
for the little dainty fine things seem
TO require the most delicate of sewing,
However, there are many little jack
cts and wrappers that it would be a
waste of time for the busy mother to
think of doing other than by machine,
for they wear out quickly.
There has been fancy OF late to
make the wee ones kimonos and
dressing sacques of gay lowered ma
terials, Japanese fashion. They are
remarkably pretty, too, these flower
aud butterfly and bird strewn gar
mcnts. Such tiny little things to be
30 gay! The wrapper in the sketch is
the very essence of spring. 1t is n
creamy flannel, with apple blossoms
In delicate pinks, gorgeous butterflies
and brilliant birds scattered over It.
The ribbons are a lovely rose pink.

Fowler recites The fact that Cannon
opposed Fowler's plans to avert the
