Here is Count Zeppeltn's account of
meeting President Lincoln:
Through the good Offices of the
Prussian ambassador I was able to
obtain an audience with President
Lincoln. I soIemnly donned my frock
coat and high hat, but found no spe-
cial pomp attaching to the ceremony.
cat the White House I was taken
into the room where the president
worked From behind the writing
table a very tall, lean form arose, with
a large head, long, unkempt hair and
beard, and strikingly projecting cheek
bones, but shrewd, kindly eyes. Dur
ing my short talk with the president
his private secretary, Reed, sat on
the writing table, swinging his feet
rhythmically to and frO-they stuck
far out of his trouser legs and were
incased in pair of shoes resembling
moccasins.
President Lincoln expressed HIM

and my plans, and wished me success
in the studies which I proposed to
make"

THE HOGG|SH FARMER

Editor Journal: l am impelled to
write this article by some remarks
made in my hearing by business man
about "the id farmers who put up
hunting notices and hog all the birds. y
L control a thousand acres in this

preserve the game, to make it refuge,
at least, for native grouse, native
pheasants, native quail, Bob White, and
some California quail l got from the

these birds were numerous and tame,
now there are none, except an occas-
ional highly nervous and suspicious

gone, and likewise the imported Cali.

Two hogs nave been shot, one a

wounded and my neighbor's registered
cow was killed A gate was left open
and 300 head of hogs escaped. 1t cost
me over $40 to get them back. Last
year horse for which gave $3.50 was
shot and | had to kill him.
l know that more than ESQ birds
have been killed on the place this
season, nave been able to kill lust
two. But once has my family had a
mess of birds. The fellows who don I
pay the taxes, don't own the animals
that have been shot, the gates that
were left open, got the birds--all but
two.
Next spring no grouse will make the

will pheasants from moss.covered log
beat its defiance to the breeze, and no
quail will whistle cheerily to me as |

Sport News From All Parts

New York, Oct. 27.-Johnny Dundee
last night gave Willie Ritchie former
lightweight champion more than eight
pounds in weight and a licking. This
was the concensus of opinion of fight
fans today
Dundee went into the bout on the
short end of the betting, and. vita
nearly everything in Ritchie's favor.
Richie had the advantage of weight,
height and reach.
Unquestionably, Dundee had every
round with the exception of the ninth
and tenth. The Italian took the often
sive from the start and his aggressive
tactics puzzled the westerner. Dun
dee's slashing and punching kept Rit-
chic busy looking out for himself.
Richie made a belated attempt in
the last two rounds to even up the
score with whirlwind finish, but the
lead established by the Italian was too
great, although Richie kept Dundee
on thedefensive in the final rounds.
The promoters were sadly disappoint
ed in the attendance, which was fal
below expectations. Dundee got 81 900
