And MINDLESS sky and brings no

A Lincoln Comment.


In THE Life and Letters OF John
Hay" is this diary entry which gives .
typical glimpse Of Lincoln:
II said to the president today that ]
thought Butler was the only man In
the army In whom power would be
dangerous. Mcclellan was too dmid
and vacillating to usurp; Grant was
too sound and cool headed and unself-
ish; Banks also: Fremont would be
dangerous II he had more ability and
energy.
"'Yes,' says the president. he Is like
Jim Jett's brother. Jim used to say
that his brother was the darnedest
scoundrel that ever lived. but IN the In
finite mercy Of Providence he was also
the darnedest fool"

One Christmas eve the gallant Tom
met In the hall the pretty octoroon

ciety leader and belle. Tom promptly
kissed the maid and then expressed his
appreciation by giving her for Christ

twenty dollar gold piece. In fact. 1t
was a gold medal that had been pre-.
scented to him by the citizens Of Frank
fort. KY, for some services rendered to
that burg.
The girl tried to change the gold
piece. when the storekeeper. supposing
It to be stolen. impounded It and gave
1t to her mistress. The girl, being
called to account, admitted that 1t was
a Christmas gift from Mr.. Marshall
and confessed that the hall was dark
and that Tom kissed her before she
could help It.
Miss Breckinridge determined to give
Mr.. Marshall q lesson In good manners.
30 that evening at a brilliant social
function she assembled half a dozen
Louisiana bellies about her and. calling
Tom to the group. handed him the
medal and said: "Mr. Marshall, here Il

the Third New Jersey District where
Representative Scully, Democrat, is
opposing the election or ROBERT Gar
son, Republican.
Scully now is reported to have a
lead of 1875 votes on the recount, but
there still are about 5000 votes to be
passed upon by the courts. At least
twenty seats, it is said. will be con-
tested in the House after 1t has organ

Should the Republicans seat both OF
their contestants and hold their mem
bership solid for their candidate they
would need only two Independent
votes to win the speakership, while
the Democrats would need five. On the
other hand, should the Democrats win
the contested seats, the Republicans
would need four Independent votes,
while the Democrats could win VIVA
three votes.
There is no question about the DEM
ocrats voting solidly for Speaker clark
but there are some signs OF strlte
among the Republicans. Representa-,
tive Gardner already has announced
his opposition to Representative Mann.
Every effort will be made by leaders,
however, to have the solid support OF

who gets a crouch will be tempted TO
