Well, she is gone-the bride so dear
And yet We are resigned;
We almost think that she is here,
She left so much behind.
Sometimes we hunger for her touch
Her tender, wistful smile;
And we might miss her very much

Her special greetings were not brought

Or IN a shower we were caught,

Mr.. Wing Of the commercial club

writes from Chicago that he is ready
now to begin on the proposition Of
building a railroad southwest from
Dodge CITY. Mr.. Burns requested
that names be sent him for proper
directors for the company SO that he
could begin on forming the corpora
ton, and stated that within a week
he would want to start the movement.
After the preliminary plans are
made be will come to Dodge City to

enter into the present project. At
food times there is no question about
the supply Of water flowing high
enought to be brought through all of
these counties by ditch, and the
engineers say that the lay Of the land
will permit it, and even that parts Of
Greeley, Wichita and Scott counties
may be watered.
The thing looks feasible enough,
and it may be that some one has at
last figured out an Arkansas water
scheme which may be put through to
the great benefit Of the counties along
the river. There seems to be a good
deal of force at work along this line
of action, whether it has started from
some private company or not.
The meeting at Syracuse should
have delegates from here in attend
ance, by all means. II the govern
ment can be interested in the idea we
will find out at least whether or not
the plan is practical, and if practical
the government might be induced to
take it up. The time is coming
when we will not allow water to 20
to waste in this western country, and
the present movement toward that
end should at least be investigated.

A VIEW OF LINCOLN
C0mraee Rose Writes OF Llnc0ln's Visit to the
Harwood Hospital After the Battle Of
Fredericksburg.
To THE GLoBE-R REPUBLICAN,:

To THE GLoBE-REpUBLIoAN:
After the battIe Of Fredericksbu, G
in December 1862, many Of our COM
rades who were wounded in that
engagement we're taken to the Hai-
W Cd hospital at Washington D. G.,
and among them a cousin OF the
writer, belonging to the l2lst N. Y.
Infantry. | obtained permission to
visit him, and while standing beside
his cot, President Lincoln accom-
panied by the surgeon general OF our
army entered the ward Each
wounded comrade was passed with a
nod or question Of inquiry until the
center OF the long and crowded ward
was reached, when the president
turned to the surgeon general, and
asked him the question contained in
the first line Of his favorite poem,
"Oh, why should the spirit Of mortal
be proud?" The surgeon general
made no response. The president
repeated the question, standing with
his tall form erect, his face upturned,
and eyelids closed in an attitude OF
prayer, as though asking this CUES
tion of the Supreme Rnler of the
universe, in whom he trusted. The
question was such, and the manner
Of asking, that the angles may have
listened, and in that crowded ward,
where lay the wounded comrades,
every groan, every cry OF pain was
suppressed, and every eye turned
toward the president, where he stood
with eyelids dropped and face bathed
in tears. He was standing almost
in the chamber Of death, and it
brought up memorials so sad that his
after life was embittered from them
and made him the sympathetic and
sorrowful man that he, always was
thereafter, save when he would throw
off for q time his melancholy, and
give glimpse Of his old time humor-
ist traits Of character. Having
noticed the effect bis presence and
the thrilling tones of his voice had
produced upon the wounded com
rades, he with eff,rt controlled his
emotions, and repeated from memory
his favorite poem written by VIM.
Knox, emitting the first line and the
last, which are the same, for when he
came to the question he had first
asked his voice failed him. Over
come with emotion, tears flowed
down his furrowed cheeks, and his
countenance was almost as paid as
when I last saw his remains lying IN
state in Harrisburg. to where our
battery went in the funeral escort.
