soCiates. After he had concluded the
reading of letter to his colleagues,
the court and the entire audience in
the chamber arose and remained
standing till. with bowed head but
firm step, he had withdrawn to the
robing room.
Only a few minutes before the res
ignation was officially announced,
Justice McKenna delivered a deci-
sion. Although in his SEND year, he
retains notable vigor, physical and
mental, and probably would not have
retired except for the death recently
of his wife.
Mr.. Stone was a student at Am
herst when the president was there,
and a friendship was formed then
which has continued, although they
were not members of the same class.
The great confidence reposed in him
by the president led to his selection
to take charge Of the department of
justice after the retirement of Attor-
ncy General Harry M. Daugherty.
Close association in cabinet sessions
and in repeated conferences has

Portrayal of Lincoln's
Character Pleases
At Baptist Church

The entertainment nold at the First
baptist church last evening under
the auspices of the Ladies' Baptist
Social Union proved to be a great
success The entertainment dealt
with the Interpretation of Abraham
Ilhcoln's S character and this was ably
executed by Lincoln CaSWeH.
1t seemed to the audience that the
great Abraham Lincoln stood before
them as Mr.. Carvel gave some Of
Llncoln's stories and impcrsonations
To have anyone imper5onate Lincoln
as well as did Mr.. CaswelI would
only mean that the one and only
Lincoln would have to apepar in
person. Not only in appearance did
Mr. Caswell resemble Lincoln but his
tone of voice seemed to be a voice
that only the real Lincoln could pos
SeSS.
The impersonation Of Lincoln has
been tried many times, but never has
any man had the success that Mr..
Caswell has had. He has devoted
many years of his life to this work
and his entertainment last evening
showed that he has succeeded in his
hard task. Mr.. Caswell has built up
portrayal in as vivid style as pos
sible with such characteristics of
Lincoln as exhibited at the height of
his career while leading the nation
through the throes of an UNPARALLELED
civil war.
Mr.. Caswelrs entertainment was
divided up into three different acts
covering different phases of Lincoln s
life. The first act opened with the
summer of the second year of the
civil war. In this act Mr.. Caswell
portrayed Lincoln in the Executive
Mansion" and gave many interesting
stories about Lincoln in this office.
He showed how Lincoln began his
days work by meeting var ious people
in different walks of life, as the Of
nee boy, the private secretary, and
historic persons of his day.
The second act dealt with the So
luton and the dissolution of slavery.
Mr.. Caswcll gave Lincoin's reason
why slavery was not the thing that
would build up union, but would
break a union. This act also con =
tanned the portrayal of Lincoln with
the famous war cabinet in session.
Mr.. Caswell gave very good imper-
sonation Of the wonderful ability of
Lincoln in handling men.
The last act represented the re-
action of Lincolns mind to the forces
of despair and triumph. Mr.. Caswell
showed how sorry Lincoln was for
the losers in the battle, but yet he
did not remain untrue to the cause
for which he was acting as president.
The action of this act was supposed
to have taken place IN the late sum-
mer Of 1864
Only words Of praise We're uttered
by the audience for Ny Caswell after
the performance. it being obvious
that he more than fulfilled expecta-
tions.
