A few days before the consecration Mr. Everett
sent to the president a newspaper containing his
speech In full-two whole pages. The president.
speaking of this act to a friend. said
"It was very kind of Mr.. Everett to send me
this. 1 suppose ne afraid should say some
thing he wanted to say. He needn't have been
alarmed. My speech isn't long 1t is short.
short, short"
Mr.. Lincoln began his address while at the White
House, writing 1t in ink upon sheet of executive
letter paper. He finished 1t In pencil upon sheet
of foolscap the morning of the day he spoke at
Gettysburg.
Some historians have maintained the president
wrote his speech while on the train on the way to
Gettysburg. but John G. Nlcolay his private sec
he maintained. knew before that time what he
should say and was plainly disturbed by the feel
ing that his address would not prove adequate
Owing to the presence Of thousands Of visitors

there crippled soldiers, sightseers. officials from
various states-the president and his party spent
the night before the consecraton at the Wills
home 1t was a crystal clear night. From the
business section of the village rose the music Of
many bands that had come to take part in the
ceremonies. Crowds of serenaders and glee clubs
went from house to house. where there were nota-
bles demanding speeches. Mr.. Lincoln responded
to a call, but declined to make a speech. saying
only:
"In my position 1t Is somewhat important that
I should not say any foolish things. 1t very often
happens that the only way to help II Is to say
nothing at ALL"
Secretary Seward. who consented to make
speech, made the remarkable error of placing Get
tysburg within the state of Maryland. His words
rang with reproof for he believed he was speaking
to Shareholders those who sympathized. at least
with the cause of slavery. David Wills, recalling

oyster Fishing by submarine.

Mr.. Simon Lake, the father Of the
modern submarine, has suggested the
use Of the submarine for polar explora-
ton, for ferrying supplies across Ice
bound rivers, for seeking sunken treas
ure, and for dredging oysters.
Experiments have demonstrated to
Mr.. Lakes satisfaction that when the
submarine Is at the bottom Of the
ocean, the oysters can be sucked up
into 1t on the vacuum cleaner prin-
ciple. When traversing good ground.
the submarine will suck up 5000 BUSH
els of oysters in an hour. This means
that in one hour a mass Of oysters
will be collected which, II compactly
piled, would require cylinder one and
three-quarters mile long to hold 1t.
The idea should be particularly usefu,
to the pearl-oyster fishers, as of Cey-
Ion, for instance.

MORGAN CITY TESTIMONY
Home Proof, Here, There and
Everywhere

When you see Doan's Kidney Pills
recommended in this paper you
most always find the recommended
Morgan City resident. It's the
same everywhere-in $500 towns
in the U. S. Forty thousand people
publicly thank Doan's. What other
kidney remedy will give this proof
of merit, honesty and truth? Home
testimony must be true or it could
rot be published here. Read this
Morgan City recommendation. Then
insist on having Doan's. You will
know what you are getting:
G. w. Lesh, First St. Morgan City
says: 81 have used Doan's Kidney
Pills off and on for a number of
years and have never found any
thing to equal them. l have had
lameness across my back and when
l have sat down or stopped, l had
trouble in Strengthening up. Just as
soon as l felt that lameness coming
on, l have used Doan's Kidney Pills
and they have never failed to
strengthen my back and regulate my
kidneys"

American Coffee An Accep-
table Gift In France

That good American coffee is an ac-
ceptable gift in France and that nurses
as well as soldiers appreciate the re-
membranes Of their friends are both
attested in a letter which has recently
come to Washington from one Of the nur-
ses of the Army corps now serving in
France.
The letter said "Your coffee GER
tainly added greatly to our Christmas
cheer. 1t appeals to us most of all,
for over here the coffee is very poor
and quite bitter with chickory. I have
had two coffee parties. With the addi-
ton Of commissary' sugar and canned
cream your coffee is quite the most de-
icious thing l have had since l reached
France, although it is made over a lit
tie alchool stove in a small tin pal. I
am enjoying the tea and other things,
but the coffee is the big treat
The idea of sending Christmas boxes
to the Army nurses as well as to SOL
diers who had gone to France original
ed with Mrs. c. N. Chapman, chairman
of the Red Cross work of the District
of Columbia Federation Of Women 8
Clubs. Ten Washington nurses recent
ly went to France for war service.
The Christmas packages sent to each
by the District Federation Red Cross
unit contained sweater, pair Of wool
en- gloves bed socks, a comfort bag,
and pound each Of tea, coffee, and
candy.
The sweaters which were sent to the
nurses were made after design origi-
mated by Mrs. Chapman. The sweater
is knitted like the soldiers sweater, but
ribbed for eight inches from below the
bust, thus permitting it to fit snugly to
the waist beneath the apron.
The Fed Cross unit of the District
of Columbia Federation Of Wcmen s
Clubs has originated some valuable ideas
in its relief work. These have included
fhe organizing Of the Martha Washing
ton Seminary for Red Cross work. There
are 90 girls in the corps, and they have
turned out large number Of supplies in
the few months since their organization.
IN the two weeks in January left from
the Christmas vacation the corps made
6 pairs of pajamas, "A hospital shirts,
ZOO towels, 80 sheets, besides knitting
numerous sweaters, helmets, socks, and
Kittens. For February they have pledg-
cd themselves to make 50 hospital shirts
and "a pairs of pajamas, besides knit.
ting goodly supply Of wooden comforts.
In speaking Of this girls corps, Mrs.
Chapman said, "Not the least valuable
result Of this work among the school girls
is that in June they will return to their
homes in many parts Of the United
States, and there they can impart what
they have learned to the women Of their
rome communities. The girls Of this
school wear the Red Cross uniform
'vhen performing its work. This consists

Veto Of So 40 Wheat.
WASHINGTON, July 13.-President
Wilson's veto of the agricultural ap

vision for 50. 40 wheat is expected ia
be accepted today by both houses.
The house will accede quickly, but
the senate may insist on debating the
question Senators have warned that
the veto means considerable reduc.
ton in the acreage to be sown in wint-
er wheat plowing for which has al

In making his veto President Will
son pointed out that 81. 40 wheat
would represent an increase of about

The method OF fixing an arbitrary
price was deemed by him as unwise

WASHINGTON, July 13.-The SEN
ate went to work on the wire control
bill today, determined to dispose OF
1t by highland then go home.
If the measure is passed and the
house is agreeable, joint resolution
may send congress off on its vacation
tonight until late in August-probably
a series of three days recesses.
Failing in this, it is the plan OF
house and senate leaders to recess
separately under "genuemen's agree
ment," that no business shall be trans
acted until August 26, in the senate al
least.
But even this plan is contingent up,
on agreement between the senate
vets and drys. Vets want to make
prohibition the unfinished business,
agreeing to keep it continuously be-
fore the senate. after the recess, until
disposed of. Drys insist on fixing a
definite date for vote on it.
The chief fight on the wire bill con-
tinued today on efforts made to safe
guard the freedom of the press. Sen
ators Reed and Watson, failing to gain
the floor yesterday, planned to speak
today on amendments exempting news
wires from government control. Wat
sons amendment would exempt tele-
phones also-and probably will be re-
fused.
Reed would provide merely that
the president shall have the power to
prevent use of news wires for disloy-
al purposes and this may be adopted.
They will point out the aid given
the Liberty loan, war savings stamp
and recruiting campaigns through the
newspapers. They will tell how news
papers educated the country to the
draft. how they have carried news Of
all that the government was doing and
why, and of its needs, into every city
and hamlet in the country.
They also will emphasize the loyalty
of the great majority of newspapers
in abstaining from printing facts and
figures tending to give information to
the enemy. They will point to the fl
deity with which press associations
and newspapers alike have adhered
to the voluntary censorship rules.
Upon these facts they will base
their arguments that the press should
not be placed in danger of being pre-.
vented by menace of censorship from
doing it's part to the fullest towards
winning the war.
Both believe that government con
troll either by the military or the post
Office department will ultimately mean
censorship.
In this view they are supported by
many others, Notwithstanding Presi'
dent Wilson's assurance that no cen.
sorship will be tolerated. The presi-
