 Cities

WASHINGTON. Feb. 12.-The cap. ital's celebration of the birth of Abra. ham Lincoln centered today in a me. morial program in the House and the departure of President Coolidge to New York to address the Lincoln's birthday dinner of the National Republican club The Senate was in recess in observance of the day and number of its members took part in various exercises arranged by the schools and the patriotic and other organizations.
 Calling upon ''the influence of Amer ica and the spirit of Abraham Lincoln to lead 'the nations of the world from the hatreds of the past and the selfish. ness of the present to the dawn of a brighter and better day." Representa-. tive Rathborne of Illinois, the memorial speaker in the House, described the Washington arms conference as 'epoch making" and suggested that further bounds to be set for the insanity of nations piling ever higher and higher the expense of armaments.
 Just as Abraham Lincoln has more than any other statesman set the moral standard for men," he declared, "so we hope and believe America, more than any other land will fix the moral stand ard for all nations"
 Parents Present At Assassination
 Recalling that "his parents were the young engaged couple, Major Rathbont and Miss Harris, the daughter of United States Senator Ira Harris of New York, who drove that fateful night oi April IA, 1865. with the President and Mrs. Lincoln in the carriage to Ford's fbnofro and xxritb fhop, i,, thn hnx when the bullet of the assassin cut short the life of the President" the speaker recited many intimate incidents in the life of Lincoln.
 Il am able to say with the utmost assurance of truth and judging from the words uttered by Lincoln in the presence of these persons in his last hours," said Mir. Rathbone, that his great heart held nothing but kindness and good will toward all his country men, and that, in his last moments, he was looking forward with the highest hope to an era of happiness and pros perity for all his beloved people, north and south alike"
 He also displayed two cherished Lin. coin relics, having made a trip to Chi cago to bring them here for the oc- casion, one, a letter written by Lincoln to d political friend shortly after his defeat by Douglas for the Senate in 1858, predicted that would sink out oi sight politically, but he was glad ht had made the race because of the oppor tunity given him to champion principle. in which he believed. The other was a copy in Lincoln's handwriting of his favorite poem, "Oh Why Should the Spirit of Mortal Be Proud" which. ac- cording to the story that goes with it, was his only source of comfort while he grieved for Ann Rutledge.

 Ostracisim From Society

Berlin, Eco. J.-In spite of his os- tracism by his own family and all officers of the old German army, Count Zedlitz-T -Truetzsehler says he is still convinced that he was right in publishing his book, Twelve Years Of Life at the Kaiser's Court which created so much excitement among families which were associated with the imperial house.
 The count says he wrote the book with the intention that it be not print cd until 1870. and caused it to be scaled with instructions that it be held until that date. But when the former emperor published his memoirs. and other officers and statesmen printed books in violation of old traditions. the count felt it was his duty to bring out his book and let 1t confirm or deny the statements of other men concerning the same per icd
 T thought it was fairer to stand the storm my book might raise than to force one of my sons to do so.' says the count. Whoever reads my book without prejudice will realize that I have no desire for sensation, but simply wish to serve my country, be 1t republic or monarchy, by per- suading men to speak their convic- tions and not to belle them because of personal advantages. as did many Of the officials about the emperor"
