LINCOLN

Great heart and brain, unspottcd soul
As countless ages onward roll.
Transcendent still shall be the fame
That circles round thy lustrous name!
4 martyrs crown adorns the brow
OF him whose paeans chant we now,
While music with devotion blends
And incense to his soul ascends.
The flags throughout our land I'M
furled,
Fling greetings to a gladdened world
In token of the ends of earth
OF this, the day of Lincoln's birth!
Great Lincoln! who with pregnant
word
Wrought mightier deeds than flaming
sword;
And who with dauntless stroke of
pen
Gave freedom to four million men!
who quick, when peril doomed In
view,
The full demands OF duty knew;
Who cOnsecrated heart and hand
And mighty soul to save his, land.
With purpose pure and lofty thought
Sweet peace he stlll unceasing
sought;
Till when on Sumter fell the blast
or shrieking shells in fury cast
Then rose his giant form in wrath
Across the bold destroyer's path
And hurled the challenge back again
On ruthless ranks of maddened men
That call to arms our country heard;

LINCOLN AND HIS CABINET.

Lincoln hated to dictate. He shrank
from assuming to control the members
OF his cabinet until forced by circum.
stances to take upon himself the re-
sponsibility. His natural preference
was TO work with. rather than to lead
men. He could not bear to humble
any fellow.being. however low his
rank. He found, however. as emergen.
cies arose, that some one must rule,
and that as President he alone was
never permitted him to shirk a duty,
and thus little by little his power was
modestly put forth until his quiet
mastery was complete.
When the members OF Lincoln's
cabinet first met, probably no one
among them suspected that their coun.
sells would be ruled by the man who
tat at the head Of the table. None of
them knew him, and most of them felt
they were the superiors Of the untried
and unframed President. They had
all been chosen by him for political or
party reasons. Four had been his
competitors for the nomination at
Chicago. He had not one personal
friend In the group.
The construction of such cabinet
was daring venture. There was nc
binding tie between the secretaries
Rivals or strangers to Lincoln, they
were not united In loyalty to him
Drawn from hostile factions, there wal
no harmony Of purpose among them
Only President with the power tC
mould and master men could hold to
gether a group OF advisers naturally
so discordant.
Few, II any, imagined that Lincoln
would dominate them. For twent,
years there had been a succession o
weak Presidents, reigning but not rul
Ing, The Chief Executive had com,
to be no more than the fgurehead o
a strong faction. Lincoln's admins
tration, therefore, was expected to b,
his only In name. ....

HOLDING THE CELLO.
An Anecdote of Duport and the EN-.
peror Napoleon.

An Anecdote OF Duport and the EN-.
peror Napoleon.
Napoleon, in Il way, was fond of
music. 1t is admitted that the mu-
steal tastes of THE Corsican ogre
were not elevated. But for all hat he
loved singing so much that many Il
time after u concert he ordered the
vocalists to come to the palace and
sing before him and the Empress Jo-
sephine.
A curious anecdote is told of his
brusque I'M OF dealing with art
lists. One night ut IL concert at the
Tuileries, while Duport, the famous
violoncelist, was performing a sole,
the emperor suddenly entered. His
majesty nodded his read approvingly
and when the piece was finished said
to Duport:
"How the deuce do you manage to
keep that instrument so motionless?''
And, taking up the cello, he tried to
jam it between his spurred boots.
Poor Duport nearly tainted when he
saw his treasure treated like a var
horse. For several minutes he looked
on, trembling from head to foot. At
last, however, he darted forward and
called u "Sire!" in such pathetic
tones that the emperor handed him
back the instrument.
Duport t%hereupon showed how the
instrument was held, but every time
his imperial master extended his hand
to attempt to do it himself Duport
] threw himself back in alarm till final
ly Josephine whispered something to
her husband, who burst out laughing
and put an end to the cello lesson

We have it from reliable author
ity that nine indictments are await
ing Springfield parties at Tyndall,
for selling liquor at this place con-
trary to the law. This is, indeed,
a surprise and we can't help be-
lieving that there is a gross mistake

of court will reveal the identity of
those against whom complaint has
been entered.

Another Business Change.

a. A. Kaeppler Of Dayton,
Wash, who hRs held a majority Of
the stock in the Bon HommeC oun-
~ Bank, has disposed Of quite q
large portion of his holdings, and
the controlling interest in the bank
is now held by residents Of Scot
land. The purchasers Of the stock
are D. K. Tomlinson, Henry Stol.
Ter, F. T.. Wheeler and Chris Meth.
The deal a closed yesterday and
the following officers elected: D.
K. Tomlinson, president; Henry
Stoller, vice president; w. s.
Brant, cashier, and Geo. E. Cart
wright, assistant cashier. Mr..
Kaeppler still retains an interest
IN the bank and is one of the board
of directors. The Bon Homme
County Bank has always been con-
servatively managed, and has been
considered one of the substantial
institutions of the state. But
while its stability heretofore has
been unquestioned, this change,
which places a controlling interest
in the hands of local stock holders,
every one of whom is financially
responsible and possesses the con-
fidence of the business public, will
certainly add still more to its pres
tige. The retention of Mr.. Brant
as cashier with Mr.. Cartwright as
an able assistant will insure a con-
tinuance of the same careful and
conservative management, and the
personal influence of the new stock
holders will be beneficial to the in
stitution in a business sense.
