ern delegation; but they were sudden ly abandoned, and Mir. Lincoln was brought forward in their stead. The local pressure was so great that he carried the nomination over Mir. Sew ard. and was elected president in Mo- vember. 1860.
 The result of the election was tre- 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. Lincoln'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- deney, and lived to see the ultimate success of the federal arms. and the surrender of Richmond and the army of General Robert E. Lee. While on q visit to the Ford theater, Washing ton, April II, 1865. Abraham Lincoln was shot through the head by an actor named John Wilkes Booth; he passed away on the following morning.

coln began life as laborer Tn the bush, building rail fences-a circum- stance which gained for him in after years the designation of "the rail- splitter"-also working as common sailor on the flat boats which navi- gated the Mississippi river. While thus employed he picked up little learning, and gave all his spare time to reading what books came his way. He served as captain of militia dur ing the Indian troubles in the North west and in 1884 was elected to the Illinois legislature. Three years later he was admitted to the bar, and met with much success as an advocate. In 1S47 he was elected to congress, where he supported the Whig party and be- came conspicuous as an opponent or slavery. The Whig party was broken up after the presidential election of 1852, and two years later he appeared as leader of the newly organized Re publican party. He made several un- successful attempts to obtain seat in the senate. In 1860, however, he was raised to the highest office in the republic.
 The national Republican convention met at Chicago in June of that year, and up to the eleventh hour it was supposed that Mir. Chase of the state of Ohio, and Mir. Bates of Missouri, would divide the votes of the west

Lincoln and Economy.

As an advocate of thrift, Abraham Lincoln wHs far less prolific than an- other great American, Benjamin Franklin. Lincoln published no Poor Richards Almanac" If he had, doubt less his injunctions to thrift would have been fully as trenchant and point ed IS were those of Franklin. For Lincoln was forced to thrift and con- sequently realized the value of 1t.

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 1858 Lincoln wore a beard.
 In 1857 and 1858 he was beardless.
 During the debate with Douglas he was growing a beard.
 The day after his first nomination the beard was gone.
 Portraits of 1861. 1863, and 1864 show the full beard, but before 1864 was ended the Lincoln face was smooth again. The last portrait, made on April g, 1865, shows the fair beginning of a beard.

" The Cruise of the Trundlebed l"

Probably the most successful school event that has ever talk en place in Wrangell was the oper- etta, ''The Cruise of the Trundle- bed' which was produced at the Redmen's hall last Friday night by the pupils of the primary and intermediate grades of the Wran- gell Public school. The costumes were beautiful and elaborate and in every case characteristic of the nations they represented.
 As stated in our last issue the story of the operetta is that of two little boys who while away their time in bed, before they grow sleepy by playing Sailing out to sea-" Just as they have everything fixed to start on ''The Cruise of the Trundlebed," they fall fast asleep, so a good fairy comes on the scene and takes them on a journey around the world. In their dreams, they visit a number of foreign coun- tries. but they manage to get back just as the clock strikes four, at which hour the fairy finds she must disappear, as she is not allowed on earth after day. light. Just as she is making her escape the youngsters wake up and try to catch her, but she gets away.
 The little people all acted their parts wonderfully well, and were enthusiastically applauded. At the close of the production a num- Der of the audience requested that it be repeated in the near future. Only words of highest praise are due the children and their teachers, Misses O'Connor and Armstrong who had charge of the affair, and were respon- sible for it's signal success.
