II don't mind that. but while we're

CHAPTER XVI.
Wherein Young MIR. Lincoln Betrays
Ignorance of Two Highly Important
Subjects.

Wherein Young Mr.. Lincoln 6etrays
Ignorance of Two Highly Important
Subjects.
There were two subjects of which
MT. Lincoln had little understanding.
They were women and finance. Until
they had rightly appraised the value
Of his friendship. women had been
wont to regard him with a RANT Curl
oSity. He had been aware of this. and
for years had avoided women. save
those Of old acquaints When he
h~sd ct the tavern in the village, often
he had gone without a meal rather
than expose himself to the eyes of
strange women. The reason for this
was well understood by those who knew
him. The young man was an exceed
ingly sensitive human being. No
doubt he had suffered more than any
enc knew from ill-coneealed ridicU,e,
but he had been able to bear it with
composure in his callow youth. Later
nothing reused his anger like an at.
tempt to rldicule him.
Two women he had regarded with
great tenderness-his foster mother.
the second wife Of Thomas Lincoln.
and Ann Rutledge. Others had been
to him, mostly, delightful but inscru-
table beings. The company of women
and of dollars had been equally unfa-
sniliar 70 him. He had said more than
once in his young manhood that he felt
embarrassed In the presence OF either,

''He has not yet accomplished much

he will until some big issue comes

other day. Wait till / see a bear The
people of Vandalia and Springfield

that every fellow with a foul mouth
hates himself for 1t and envies the
man who isn't like him. They begin
to see his skill as a politician, which
has shown itself in the passage of
bill removing the capital TO Spring

put 1t through. But he has not yet I'M
covered his best talents. Mark my
word, some day Lincoln will be big

"The death Of his sweetheart has

coming to a clinch. In my opinion it
cannot be done. l expect to live to
see the fight and to take part in IT,"
Late in the session of 1S36-1S37 the
prophetic truth of these words began
to reveal itself. A bill was being put
through the legislature denouncing the
growth of abolition sentiment and its
activity in organized societies and up
holding the right of property in slaves.
Suddenly Lincoln had come to fork
in the road. Popularity, the urge of
many friends, the counsel of wealth
and power, and public opinion, the call
of good politics pointed in one dlrec-
ton and the crowd went that way. 1t
was stampede. Lincoln stood alone

dis political career was ended. There
were three words on the sign-board
pointing toward the perilous and lone
" road that Lincoln proposed to fol-
low. They were the words Justice and
Human Rights. Lincoln and Dan
stone took that road in protest, de-
claring that they believed the institu-
tion of slavery was founded upon In
Justice and bad policy" Lincoln had
followed his conscience, instead of the
crowd.
AT twenty-eight years of age he had
safely passed the great danger point
In his career. The declaration at De-
catur, the speeches against Douglas,
the miracle of turning 100000 beasts
into 100000 men, the sublime utter
ance at Gettysburg, the wise parallels,
the second inaugural, the innumerable
acts of mercy, all of which lifted him
into undying fame, were now possible.
Henceforth he was to go forward with
the growing a. 'roval of his own spirit
and the favor of God.

LOCAL BASEBALL GAMES
ON TOMORROW'S CARD
Vagabonds To Stack Up Against
: Owings Station-Independents
VS.. Annapolis Athletic Club
FIT. McHENRY ON SUNDAY

Two baseball games that will bring
the three leading teams OF the city
into action will be staged on home
grounds tomorrow afternoon. and both
should draw a large gallery of fans.
The Vagabonds will meet the nine
from Owings Station. Calvert county,
on the St Johns College diamond,
while the Independent Athletic Club,
of Eastport will stack up against the
team of the Annapolis Athletic Club,
on the grounds al Eastport Both
games are scheduled for o'clock.
The Vagabonds- Owings Station con-
test will be the fourth of series of
five between these two teams. and
the indications are that il will be per-
haps the best game that has been wit
messed here this season. The Vaga-
bonds will be out for blood. The teams
first met during the early part OF the
season and the Owings Station team
emerged victor. Soon afterwards il
was agreed to let that game count as
one in the series. for the hest three
out of five.
The Calvert countians are ahead by
2 TO /. hence the VagabOnds are eager
to win tomorrow and thereby even up
the series. so that the fifth or rub
ber" game may be played. The plan
is to stage the deciding contest on
neutral grounds. The previous games
have been played alternately at
Owings Station and Annapolis. Should
Owings Station again capture the
laurels tomorrow. then OF course, the
series will be over.
Because of great rivalry that has
sprung up between the Annapolis A. c.
and the Independents, the game at
Eastport tomorrow ought to be good
exhibition. Arrangements have been
made for music during the game, For
Sunday the Independents have booked
a game with the nine of Fort Nc
Henry. Baltimore.
