SAN FRANCISCO, Feb. H.
Investigation of the Taylor ad-
ministration and of the official
acts of District Attorney Langdon
during the graft prosecution"
are reported today to be among
the matters to be considered by
the present grand jury. District
Attorney Fickert, recent success
full opponent of Francis j. Heney,
has announced that his office has
been handicapped in the prosecu-
tion of those charged with graft
and thievery by the disappearance
of important documents. Fickert
declares that he has asked the
grand jury to investigate the rea-
son of the disappearance.
Fickert expects in this way to
obtain some information regarding
the whereabouts of reports and
evidence obtained by the men
working under Burns and which
Fickert now says cannot be found.
Every possible effort has been
made to hamper me in the prose-
cution of the graft cases with the
idea of putting me in a false posi-
tion before the people of San
Franvisco," said Fickert.
Il intend to know why Detect

city's money to accumulate evil

ments were returned by the grand
jury, but of which l cannot find

of these escapades in tenderness

After two years a young chap
named Davis came to court Eliza.
In a manly way he asked Lincoln
for the girls hand, and Lincoln
consented, and the pair were mar
ried in the Lincoln house, and
Lincoln blessed them. And when
young Davis died, just before his
baby was born, Lincoln again
brought Comfort to his heart

II saw him once after he was
elected president, said Mrs.
Wells, land that was when he
was just leaving for Washington.
He kissed me goodby-I Will

would give his life to his country.
