The life and death masks Of Abraham Lincoln
are OF course tremendously important as convey
ing to the present and future generations the
exact appearance of this famous in life and In
death. A mask, It will be understood, is plaster
cast of a countenance which reproduces faithfully
its every detail One of the life masks of Lincoln
that has been preserved made In 1850 just after
Iincoln's first nomination for president the work
being done by sculptor who accompanied the noti
hcation committee to Springfield Another life mask
was made about month before Lncon's death
The death mask is perhaps the representation which

draped in front of the presidents box at Ford's
theater the night when Lincoln was shot The
flag shows plainly the rent made by Booths spur
when it caught in the folds as he leaped from
the box to the stage. Another interesting relic
is the spur itself, which made trouble for the
assassin by causing him to fall heavily, breaking
his leg and, in consequence, seriously hampereo

IN THE WILDS OF CANADA

The interior OF the provinces of Quebec and
Ontario is nothing but a continuous stretch of
dense forest, much of which has been burned over
in days gone by, that the deadfall was consid
erable, writes Frederick A. Talbot telling of the
surveys for the Grand Trunk Pacific railroad in
the Engineering Magazine THE forest was for
the most part trackless, the Indians and trappers
moving through this inhospitable country along
the obviously easy channes-the waterways.
Huge stretches Of muskeg were encountered. for
the land is in sore need of draining. As the west
ern boundary Of the province of Ontario Is ap-
preached the country becomes more broken, lakes
and swanps being intersected by stretches OF
badly broken rocky hills. From Lake Nipigon
westward to The boundary Of Manitoba the worst
country between the Atlantic and Pacific had to
be penetrated with great difficulty and arduous-
ness.
For the purpose Of the surveys an elaborate
organization had to be perfected in order to ship
in supplies and keep the surveyors well equipped
with provisions. For six months Of the year the
country in the grip III snosf, the fall of which
is heavy while the thermometer drops to very low
readings. AS the nearest railway communication
was 100 or more miles TO the south, supplies had
to be packed over and numerous caches had to be
established. Tote roads were driven for team
work as far as practicable In summer. trails had
