While our recent national chief ex
ecutives have fled from Washington
and it's summer heat and moved to
cool summer capitals, as, for instance,
Buzzards Bay, Oyster Bay and Bev-
erly, Lincoln in his day was forced
ever to remain on guard in the ma
tons capital the year through
During his four troublous years in
Washington he took no vacation and
his summer residence was within
easy ride of the seat of government.
The Anderson cottage, in the SOL
diers' home grounds, was his summer
home, and it was here, guarded by
a company Of cavalry, that he lived
while handling the reins of govern
ment through the Civil war. He rode
to the White House every day and re-
turned at night, the hour more often
than not being late.
His simplicity of taste was such
that he would gladly have ridden
without escort, but the secretary OF
war, the trenchant Stanton, insisted
on the cavalry escort, for the presi,
dents safety.
Lincoln said he did not want it;
he couldn't hear himself think with
the soldiers gathering along beside,
before and behind him. But with his
usual complaisance in what he deem
ed non-essentials, he yielded. Some.
times he rode horseback, accompa.
MED by the escort. At times he was
called on to make a sudden journey
from his cottage to the White House.
One such call was on the receipt of
news of the reverse at Chickamaug:
Lincoln mounted his horse and rode

other localities He amassed over
half million of dollars which, when
the end came, was carefully dis
tributed to hundreds of sources, in
which the old mining camp of Nc
/ Cabe and his many pioneer friends
in Arizona were thoughtfully and
generously remembered. One Of
the strong traits of this man was
his devotion to this mining camp,
which he made his home in adversely
and prosperity. After roaming over
the world in search of health, he
would invariably retrace his steps
to the little cabin on the hill to
mingle with the men of his early
day calling, and to enjoy that COM
fort which even a palace could not
offer. As he often expressed it, his
health was better in the camp, and
his contentment greater than if a
mansion was at his disposal.
He was fine type OF the rugged
men who build up a country, and
while not of that familiar habit TO
mingle with all, he was genial and
generous and above all, as con-
scientious a man as ever lived.
One of his hobbies was the public
schools, and he built from his own
purse the present building that re-
mains in the little town OF McCabe
TO this day. 1t is at present I'M
used, but the district is to be re-
vived again and the purposes for
which it was instituted are to be
preserved, if money can accomplish
them. Mr.. Parsons made McCabe
his home for nearly a quarter OF a
century. and realizing that the sum-
mons was near, he reluctantly left
the old scene, but carried away,
however, the memories of the past,
as his will so nobly reflects. He
was a splendid man, and his open
handed disposition is recalled today,
as his donation is about to be
realized by those to whom it was
extended when he was in the full
enjoyment of health. $500

ONCE AFFLUENT
He DIES IN
POVERTY
Joe Moro, DiScoverer Of
The Swansea, Hears
Final Summons.
(From Tuesdays Daily

Joe Moro, the discoverer of the
Swansea mines, passed away in this
city yesterday, and although a sue
cessful miner OF early days, his last
illness was attended with facing con-
ditions of extreme poverty.
For over a quarter of a century
he prospected in every section Of
the State, making good sized
cleanup" at times, but which was
later expended in his ambition to
secure "homestake" that was never
realized in the magnitude desired.
From the sale OF the Swansea, how
ever, he is said to have received
quite a snug sum about six years
ago, but which was outlayed in
other properties that proved poor
investments.
He was a native OF Italy, and in
all his relations was an upright man,
with free hand to the needy, and
good citizen. Relatives are re
siding in Italy, and after they have
teen heard from, the funeral will
take place from Ruffner's mortuary
chapel IN this city.
