and Samson beneath it. Suddenly the
saw stopped. A clear, beautiful voice
flung the music of Sweet Nightin-
gale" into the timbered hollow. It
halted the workers and set the wood
land ringing. The men stood silent
like those hearing benediction. The
singing ceased. Still they listened for
half a moment. 1t was as if spirit
had passed and touched them.
"It's Bim-the little vixen" said
Abe tenderly. "She's an odd child
and as pretty as a spotted fawn, and
about as wild. She's kind of first
cousin to the bobolink."
When they were getting ready to go
home that afternoon Joe got into a
great hurry to see his mother. It
seemed to him that ages had elapsed
since he had seen her-a conviction
which led to noisy tears.
Abe knelt before him and comfOrted
the boy. Then he wrapped him in his
jacket and swung him in the air and
started for home with Joe astride his
neck.
Samson says in his diary: "His ten
der play with the little lad gave me
another look at the man Lincoln"
"Some one proposed once that we
should call that stream the Mime
haha," said Abe as he walked along.
after this Joe and l are going to call
it the Minneboohoo."
The women Of the little village had
met at a quilting party at ten o'clock
with Mrs. Martin Waddell. There
Sarah had had seat at the frame
and heard all the gossip Of the coun-
tryside. The nimble-fingered Ann Rut-
ledge-a daughter Of the tavern folk
had sat beside her. Ann was a
slender, good-looking girl of seventeen
with blue eyes and a rich crown Of
auburn hair and a fair skin well
Drowned by the sunlight. She was
the most dexterous needle worker in
New Salem.
John Mcneil, whom the Traylora
had met on the road near Niagara
Falls and who had shared their camp
with them, arrived on the stage that
evening. He was dressed in q new
butternut suit and clean linen and
looked very handsome. Samson writes
that he resembled the pictures of Rob.
ert Emmett. With fine, dark eyes, q
smooth skin, well-moulded features
and black hair neatly brushed on a
shapely head he was not at all like
the rugged Abe. In low tone and
very modestly, with slight brogue
on his tongue he told Of his adventures
on the long shore road to Michigan
Ann sat listening and looking into his
face as he talked. Abe came in. soon
after eight o'clock, and was introduced
to the stranger. All noted the con.
trast between the two young men as
they greeted each other. Abe sat
down for few minutes and looked
sadly into the fire but said nothing
He rose presently, excused himself
and went away.

CHAPTER w.
Which Presents Other Log-cabin Folk
and the First Steps in the Making of
New Home and Certain Capacities
and Incapacities of Abe

Next morning at daylight two par
ties went out in the woods to cut tim
Der for the home of the newcomers.
In one party were Harry Needles car
rying two axes and well-filled lunch
con pail; Samson with a saw in his
hand and the boy Joe on his back /;
Abe with saw and AK and a small jug
Of root beer and book tied in big
red handkerchief and slung around his
neck. When they reached the woods
Abe cut pole for the small boy and
carried him on his shoulder to the
creek and said:
Now you sit down here and keep
order in this little frog city. II you
hear frog say anything improper
you fetch him whack. Don't allow
any nonsense. Wen make you mayor
of Frog City,"
The men fell to with axes and saws
while Harry limbed the logs and
looked after the mayor. Their huge
muscles flung the sharp axes into the
timber and gnawed through 1t with
the saw. Many big trees fell before
noon time when they stopped for lunch
con. While they were eating Abe said /:
II reckon we better saw out a few
boards this afternoon. Need 'em for
the doors. Wen tote couple Of logs
up on the side o. that knoll, put 'em
on skids an whip 'em up into boards
with the saw"
Samson took hold Of the middle of
one of the logs and raised it from the
ground.
II guess we can carry 'em," he said.
"Can We shoulder it?" Abe asked.
Easy" said Samson as he raised
an end Of the log, stepped beneath it
and, resting its weight on his back,
soon got his shoulder near it's center
and swung it clear of the ground and
walked with it to the knollside where
he let it fall with resounding thump
that shook the ground. Abe stopped
eating and watched every move in this
remarkable performance The ease
with which the big Vermonter had so
defied the law Of gravitation with that
unwieldy stick amazed him.
''That thing'll weigh from seven to
eight hundred pounds" said he. 81

CHICAGO. Nov. 3. - Railroad

the transportation act has con-
farrsd upon the carrier immense
powers and privileges, 1t has at the
sawo time beloved upon the en-
pioycs the highest dignity and
power ever conferred upon labor
In any land" Hooper asserted
Upon tho theory the railroads

Does he not share with the rail-
way executive the great responsi-
bulty Of pubic service?"
Hooper also attacked the pro-
posal that the interstate com merce
commission should fix wages as
unsound. He said the idea OF trans
ferring Of the functions OF tho rail-
road labor to tho commerce com
mission would be "a most glaring
fallacy'
THE fixing OF wages cannot be
made to depend upon the freight
rates," he declared.
