sity of Washington by Montana and
the inability of o. AZ c. to score
against Multnomah club.
! When Montana opened the season
against Mt. st. Charles with more
than 100 points, nothing was thought
of IT, Put when the same team scored
three touchdowns over the University
Iof Washington, while the Seattle boys
could put over but two markers. peo-
lple took notice.
The game was played in sea Of
Imud but at that Montanas speedy
backs broke away twice for long runs
Through n open field and scored
ltouchdowns. washington paved the
way to its two scores by wen executed
forward passing and vet one Of the
victors' scores was converted from an
Intercepted PASS. The Montana defeat
was the first experienced by Washing

~ abandoned, and Mr.. Lincoln was
brought forward in their stead. The
local pressure was so great that he
carried the nomination over Mr.. Sew
ard, and was elected president In No
vember 1860.
The result of the election was ire
mendous Nearly all the southern
states seeded from the Union before
the new president was inaugurated.
Then came the attack on Fort Sum-
ter and the terrible Civil war, which
for four long years devastated the
southern states of the Union. LincoIn's
tact and service during these four
years are too well known to be re-
counted
At the expiration of his term of
office he was reelected to the presi-

success of the federal arms, and the

MEANT TO SERVE AS BEACON
Statue of Liberty at New York Is Not
Fulfilling Original Purpose
of Designer.

The statute of Liberty, in New York
harbor, is electrically Illuminated
that is, so flooded with light as to be
rendered brightly visible at night.
Originally, however, the idea was
to make it serve as a beacon, and for
this purpose the ELAINE" of the lady's
torch was cut at the sides, the open
ings fitted with glass, and nine duplex
arc lamps placed inside.
Thus was obtained light which,
upheld at height of 300 feet above
the water, was visible twenty-four
miles out at sea, or ten miles beyond
the anchorage of the outside light
ship. It's maintenance was assigned
to the government lighthouse board.
But the lighthouse board declared
that it had little or no usefulness as
an aid to navigation, its value being
purely sentimental, and in 1902 the
Light was eXtinguished, the business
of Illuminating the statue being hand
ed over to the war department.

Lincoln and Economy.

As an advocate of thrift, Abraham
Lincoln was far less prolific than an
other great American, Benjamin
Franklin. Lincoln published no Poor
Richards Almanac" If he had, doubt
less his iniunetions to thrift would
have been fully as trenchant and point
ed as were those of Franklin For
Lincoln was forced to thrift and con-
sequently realized the value of it.
Summarized. HIS advice on this sub
ject was: Teach economy; that is
one of the first and highest virtues.
It begins with saving money"

Lincoln Eccentric About Beard.

In the matter of boards, as in every
thing else. Abraham Lincoln retained
an open mind He was not above
liking change for his own sake, monot-
ony Wearying him.
In 1853 Lincoln wore a beard.
In 1857 and 1858 he was beardless.
During the debate with Douglas he
was growing beard.
The day after his first nomination
'the beard was gone.
Portraits of 1861, 1868, and 1864
show the full beard, but before 1864
was ended the Lincoln face was
smooth again. The last portrait,
made on April 8, 1865, shows the fai,
beginning of a beard.
