Abe Lincoln's Ann Rutledge
And Her Beautiful Namesake
Tragic Love Affair Was
Almost Ruinous TO
Emaneipater

unselfsh humanitarian though he
was, Abraham Lincoln's career was
almost wrecked when he was twen-
ty-six by a tragic love affair with
Ann Rutledge. The incident was
recently recalled by the dedication
OF new railroad train, the "Ann
Rutledge,' in which a prominent
role was taken by the great grand
niece and namesake of this pioneer
belle.
Today's Ann Rutledge, beauteous
as her famous ancestor, is a stage
actress. She comes from family
dating back to South Carolina and
the Revolutionary war, one of whom
signed the Declaration of Tndepen-
dence.
Lincoln's Ann Rutledge was the
daughter of tavern keeper in New
Salem. ILL.,, whose love the bashful
and awkward young politician
sought four years So inferior did
he feel that Lincoln at one time
ceased pursuing her and left for
Vandalia. the Illinois state capital.
During his absence Ann was be-
trothed to John Mcneil, a success
ful New Salem storekeeper whose
shady past was suspected by Lin
coin, since the young lawyer had
handled papers for Mcneil showing
that his real name was McNamar.
Mcneil left New Salem for New
York, with the understanding that
he would soon return and claim his
bride. Infrequent letters brought
excuses and John Mcneil did not
return.
Ann Rutledge sought refuge and

Rambling Facts
About Agriculture

BY Montana Extension Service
A dairy herd infected with Bangs
disease takes profits away from the
dairyman in the form of lowered
milk production and other troubles
associated with this disease. saws J
y. Iretsven, extension dairy spe-
fcfafIst; Dairymen who have eradi-
Gated Bangs disease from their herds
find milk production increased and
this fact confirms findings of ex-
pertinent stations throughout the
country, fretsven said. At the Ore
gon experiment station ! infected
cows gave % per cent less milk per
cow annually than clean cows and
the infected animals also had trouble
from garget. Out of SO diseased
cows at this station, Is were sold
because they were sterile. The loss
of premature calves from Bangs
disease, however, is not as serious
as the loss from reduced production.
he said, and every effort should be
made to rid the herd of infected
cows.
1t is estimated that Montana
idiIiifiS spent nearly Sl5U,O on all
irrigation work in 1887 for an esti-
mated annual return of more than
$4,000.
Based on the assumption that the
winter wheat crop will not be ma
terially less than indicated on De-
cember ! and that the spring wheat
crop will be no lower than the small
harvest of 1884, the nation faces the
prospect in 1888 of another wheat
crop in excess of domestic needs,
reports the U. S. bureau of agri-
cultural economics. Domestic wheat
prices during the next few weeks
hinge ON European buying. Should
European buying remain about as
now indicated, the newly harvested
southern hemisphere crop may be
absorbed without becoming much
of price-depressing factor.

ent is the Presidents greatest pre-
occupation with regard to Latin
America, since she is second to the
United States in her commercial re-
lations with the American republics
to the south.
Germany's colonial ambitions also
will come into the Presidents dis
cusson with Mr.. Wilson, particu
larly if there is any possibility Great
Britain and France might grant
Germany colonial holdings in West
Africa. Such step would bring her
nearer to South America than the
United States is.
Meanwhile, the Inter- Govern
mental Refugee Committee, set up
in London largely through the efforts
of President Roosevelt and Secretary
Hull, is being urged through the
American members to intensity its
work on behalf of the German
refugees.
The committee is seeking not only
to induce Germany to let the
refugees leave with more of their
worldly goods, but also to induce
more countries to accept them.
Likely places for emigration, ex-
perts here believe, are Lower Cali

the quota.
