A NEW LINCOLN STORY

of course, were all decorously keeping
away from the convention city. 1t
would be exceedingly bad form for
one of them to appear near the con-
vention. What was the CONSERVATION,
then, in the Lincoln camp when 1t
was reported one afternoon that "Old
Abe" had been seen in town and that
he was calling on his Chicago friends
and swapping stories about everything
except the presidency.
Lincoln must be hustled out Of town.
1t would be ruinous to have it known
that he had been in Chicago. Teller
was sent TO eject him. He found the
presidential candidate at a hotel. en-
joying himself watching the crowds.
Mr.. Teller explained his mission, deli
cately as possible, but very firmly.
Mr.. Lincoln protested that he didn' I
have any chance worth bothering
about. Mr. Teller insisted that there
was an excellent chance, and that the
proprieties would have to be OBJ
served in these little matters. The
New England people were Punctilioua
about such affairs Of form. AT last
Mr. Lincoln yielded

but probably sentiment has been strongest for
a Lincoln memorial boulevard or highway. The
proposal has been to construct this highway
a connecting link between the national cap
ital and the battlefield at Gettysburg where
Lincoln delivered his immortal speech. The
chief objection to this scheme is that the
highway could be used and enjoyed only by
people who had automobiles other vehicles
Of their the means to hire such con-
veyances.
While on the subject of these elaborate Lin
coin memorials it may be noted that first place
in this category belongs, of course, to the Lin
coin tomb at Springfield Illinois. The monu-
ment to Lincoln at Springfield, alike to the
monuments to our other martyr presidents
Garfield and McKinley-s not merely public
but national. For the Lincoln monument the
sum of 100000 was collected. OF this sum
$4,000 came from the soldiers of the Civil
war, and So 900 of this amount was contributed
by the negro troops out of the first money they
ever earned. The Lincoln monument has had
to be reconstructed several times and entirely
rebuilt once, owing to the character of the
foundation, and these circumstances necessi-
tated the removal of Lincoln's body which, all
told, has been moved some ten or twelve times
since the original burial.
Certainly one of the most commendable of

all the existing memorials to Lincoln is the
Lincoln Memorial University of Claiborne
county, Tennessee, which was founded by Gen.
o. o. Howard one of the most devoted of Lin
coins admirers, and the object of which is to
benefit the people from whom Lincoln sprang
the mountaineers of the Cumberland Gap re-
gion. The grounds of the university contain
six hundred acres and there are several build
ings upon them, although more are needed.
The university chartered by the State of
Tennessee on Lincoln's birthday in 1897 and
has already performed a tremendous service
for the people of an isolated region which
may be said to offer no other similar educa-
tional advantages. 1t has been claimed that
owing to the handicap which Lincoln himself
sustained in early life, owing to ignorance and
poverty, he would, if he could choose, probably
prefer this memorial in the Tennessee noun
tans to any other that could be reared to his
memory.
OF the numerous statues of Lincoln which
have place in cities and town all over the
United States the most notable, from an artis-
tic standpoint, are two executed by the late
Augustus ST. Gaudens, Americas greaest
sculptor. Both of these statues figures of
heroic size. One which represents Lincoln
standing has been erected in Lincoln Park in
the city of Chicago, whereas the other, which

Senator Teller Relates Anecdote OF
First Campaign for the
Presidency.

Senator Teller of Colorado tells
Lincoln story which he says has never
been printed and which in many ways
is unique in its interest. None of the
students of Lincolniana about Wash
1ngton remembered the story, and the
fact that 1t could have escaped pub
lication all these years is regarded as
remarkable, says the New York Her
aids Washington correspondent. 1t
is going the rounds of the capital and
causing many laughs.
Henry NJ. Teller was a young man
in the year 1860, when Lincoln was
nominated for president He lived in
illinois and had been drawn into rath-
er close relation with Lincoln So
when the presidential campaign came
on this young man was selected to go
up to Chicago and assist IN the bust
ness of receiving delegates. talking
Lincoln to them and generally man.
aging the game.
Young Teller got on handsomely and
the prospect for Lincoln began to
look better to him. The candidates,

itching and a kind of smarting pain.
It took me mostly all over my back

my back was covered with a mass of
pimples which would burn and itch at
night SO that / could hardly stand it.
This condition kept getting worse and
worse until my back was a solid mass
of big sores which would break open
and run. My underclothing would be

she was quite too late, because the
resignation had been accepted Final
ly the secretary, touched by her ap-
peal, suggested that there was one
person in the country who might do
something for her-that was Presi-
dent Lincoln.
With her luncheon basket on her
arm and with her little tots tugging
at her skirts, she made her way to
the White House. She found the pres
ident, and he, having heard her story,
at once sent over for the secretary
of the navy, that he might see the
papers in the case. The secretary,
who was himself won to the cause,
presented the facts. AS Lincoln looked
at the anxious little wife, he asked:

A new story on Lincoln emanates
from the navy department; but the
great emancipator's way to do it, in
this case would be rather dangerous
for general adoption.
Early In the war a naval captain
decided to enter the Confederate
service. His wife pleaded with him
to remain with the Union, not only
because of loyalty but because it
meant the support of his family. But
the resignation was dispatched to the
department at Washington, and the
wife, left alone with her little family
decided that she would go to the cap
itol and would herself see If Some
thing could not be done
At the navy department she told
her story, but the officials said that

But the fat boy, flat on his stom.

tent, ignored these warning cries and
steadily crept toward the black hole
and Tommy's clinging fingers.
Once the ice made cracking sound
and the watchers yelled with dismay.
But the fat boy did not halt. Nearer
and nearer he came, and finally his
outstretched hands caught those
clinging fingers and drew the small
boy, little by little, onto the firmer ice

to escape his observation, and on the
slightest movement near him he
swings into his fighting attitude, rails
ing his upper jaw and erecting his
fangs, which, IN a state of repose, lie
closely packed in the soft muscles
of his mouth. This snake is not so
active as his copperhead cousin Of the
north, nor so quick to strike, but one
blow is almost always fatal. His
fangs are so long that they penetrate
deep into the muscles and veins of his
victim.
