SKETCHES OF LINCOLN.

"Short and Simple Annals of the Poor."

DATE AND PLACE OF HIS BIKTH.

Interview With a Newspaper Man—Lincoln's Reference to His Mother The Family Record—A Tragic Death—The

Roving Father of the President.

[From "The Life of Lincoln" by William H. Herndon and Jesse W. Weik. Copyright, 1888, by Jesse W. Weik. Copyright, 1892, by D. Appleton & Co.

1.

Beyond the fact that he was born on the 12th day of February, 1809, in Hardin county, Ky., Mr. Lincoln usually had but little to say of himself, the lives of his parents or the history of the family before their removal to Indiana. If he mentioned the subject at all, it was with great reluctance and significant reserve. There was something about his origin he never cared to dwell upon. His nomination for the presidency in 18G0, however, made the publication of his life a necessity and attracted to Springfield an army of campaign biographers and newspaper men. They met him in his office, stopped him in his walks and followed him to his house. Artists came to paint his picture and sculptors to make his bust. His auto-

S3

graphs were in demand, and people came long distances to shake him by the hand. This sudden elevation to national prominence found Mr. Lincoln unprepared in a great measure for the unaccustomed demonstration that awaited him. While he was easy of approach and equally courteous to all, yet, as he said to me one evening after along day of handshaking, he could not understand why people should make so much over him.

Among the earliest newspaper men to arrive in Springfield after the Chicago convention was the late J. L. Scripps of the Chicago Tribune, who proposed to prepare a history of his life Mr. Lincoln deprecated the idea of writing even a campaign biography. "Why, Scripps," said ho, "it is a great piece of folly to attempt to make anything out of me or my early life. It can all be condensed into a single sentence, and that sentence you will find in Gray's 'Elegy:' •'The short and simple annals of the poor "That's my life, and that's all you or any one else can make out of it."

He did, however, communicate some facts and meager incidents of his early days, and with the matter thus obtained Mr. Scripps prepared his book. Soon after the death of Lincoln I received a letter from Scripps, in which, among other things, he recalled the meeting 'with Lincoln and the view he took of the biography matter. "Lincoln seemed to be painfully impressed," he wrote, "with the extreme poverty of his early surroundings and the utter absence of all romantic and heroic elements. Ho communicated some facts to me concerning his ancestry, which he did not wish to have published then, and which I have never spoken of or alluded to before."

What the facts referred to by Mr. Scripps were we do not know, for he died several years ago without, so far as is known, revealing them to any one.

Lincoln and His Mother.

On the Bubject of his ancestry and origin 1 only remember one time when Mr. Lincoln ever referred to it. It was about 1850, when he and I were driving in his one horse buggy to the court in Menard county, Ills. The suit we were going to try was one in which we were likely, either directly or collaterally, to touch upon the subject of hereditary traits. During the ride he spoke for the first time in my hearing of his mother, dwelling on her characteristics and mentioning or enumerating what .J:' qualities he inherited from her. He said, among other things, that she was the ,--v 'daughter of Lucy Hanks and a well bred r* but obscure Virginia farmer or planter, and he argued that from this last source came his power of analysis, his logic, \'fM his mental activity, his ambition and "S'f all the qualities that distinguished him ikT from the other members and descendants of the Hanks family.

Abraham Lincoln, the grandfather llof the president, emigrated to Jefferson county, Ky., from Virginia, about 1780, and from that time forward the former

Btate became an important one in the history of the family, for in it was destined to be born its most illustrious member. About five years before this a handful of Virginians had started across the fnountains for Kentucky, and in the company, besides their historian, William Calk, whose diary recently came to light, was one Abraham Hanks. They were evidently a crowd of jolly young men bent on adventure and fun, but their tpart was attended with frequent

mMfWm

disasters. Their journey began at "Mr. Prige's tavern on the Rapidan." When only a few days out, "Hanks' dog's leg got broke." Later in the course of the journey Hanks and another companion became separated from the rest of the party and were lost in the mountains for two days.

In crossing a stream "Abraham's saddle turned over and his load all fell in Indian creek." Finally they meet their brethren from whom they have been separated and then pursue their way without further interruption. Returning emigrants whom they meet, according to the journal of Calk, "tell such news of the Indians" that certain members of the company are "afrade to go aney further. The following day more or less demoralization takes place among the members of this pioneer party when the announcement is made, as their chronicler so faithfully records it, that "Philip Drake bakes bread without washing his hands. This was an unpardonable sin, and at it they revolted. A day later the record shows that "Abram turns back." Beyond this we shall never know what became of Abraham Hanks, for no further mention of him is made in this or any other history. He may have returned to Virginia and become, for aught we know, one of the president's ancestors on the maternal side of the house but, if so, his illustrious descendant was never able to establish the fact or trace his lineage satisfactorily beyond the first generation which preceded him. He never mentioned who his maternal grandfather was, if indeed he knew.

An Indian Tragedy.

His paternal grandfather, Abraham Lincoln, the pioneer from Virginia, met his death within two years after his settlement in Kentucky at the hands of the Indians, "not in battle," as his distinguished grandson tells us, "but by stealth, when he was laboring to open a farm in the forest." The story of his death in sight of his youngest son, Thomas, then only 6 years old, is by no means anew one to the world. In fact, I have often heard the president describe the tragedy as he had inherited the story from his father. The dead pioneer had three sons, Mordecai, Josiah and Thomas, in the order named. When the father fell, Mordecai, having hastily sent Josiah to the neighboring fort after assistance, ran into the cabin, and pointing his rifle through a crack between the logs prepared for defense. Presently an Indian came stealing up to the dead father's body. Beside the latter sat the little boy Thomas. Mordecai took deliberate aim at a silver crescent which hung suspended from the Indian's breast and brought him to the ground. Josiah returned from the fort with the desired relief, and the savages were easily dispersed, leaving behind one dead and one wounded.

The tragic death of his father filled Mordecai with an intense hatred of the Indians, a feeling from which he never recovered. It was ever with him like an avenging spirit. From Jefferson county he removed to Grayson, where he spent the remainder of his days.

Lincoln's Father.

In Thomas, roving and shiftless, to whom was "reserved the honor of an illustrious paternity," are we alone interested. He was, we are told, 5 feet 10 inches high, weighed 195 pounds, had a well rounded face, dark hazel eyes, coarse black hair and was slightly stoop shouldered. His build was- so compact that Dennis Hanks used to say he could not find the point of separation between his ribs. He was proverbially slow of movement, mentally and physically, was careless, inert and dull, was sinewy and gifted with great strength, was inoffensively quiet and peaceable, but when roused to resistance a dangerous antagonist. He had a liking for jokes and stories, which was one of the few traits he transmitted to his illustrious son, was fond of the chase and had no marked aversion for tho bottle, though in the latter case he indulged no more freely than the average Kentuckian of his day.

At the time of his marriage to Nancy Hanks he could neither read nor write, but his wife, who was gifted with more education and was otherwise his mental superior, taught him, it is said, to write his name and to read—at least he was able in later years to spell his way slowly through the Bible. In his religious belief he first affiliated with the Free Will Baptists. After his removal to Indiana he changed his adherence to the Presbyterians—or Predestinarians, as they were then called—and later united with the Christian—vulgarly called Campbellite—church, in which latter faith he is supposed to have died. He was a carpenter by trade and essayed farming, too, but in this, as in al-. most every other undertaknig, he was singularly unsuccessful. He was placed in possession of several tracts of land at different times in his life, but was never able to pay for a single one of them. The farm on which he died was one his son purchased, providing a life estate therein for him and his wife. He never fell in with the routine of labor was what some people would call unfortunate or unlucky in all his business ventures—if in reality he over made one— and died near the village of Farmington in Coles county, Ills., on the 17th day of January, 1851.

His son, on account of sickness in his own family, was unable to be present at his father's bedside or witness his death. To those who notified him of his probable demise he wrote: "I sincerely hope that father may yet recover his health, but at all events tell him to remember to call upon and confide in our great and good and merciful Maker, who will not turn away from him in any extremity. He notes the fall of a sparrow and numbers the hairs of our heads, and he will not forget the dying man who puts his trust in him. Say to him that if we could meet now it is doubtful whether it would not be more painful than pleasant, but that if it be his lot to go now he will soon have a joyous meeting with many loved ones gone before, and where the rest of us, through the help of God, hope ere long to join them."

..,-LJ.IET OF SUCCESS.

TELL THE TRUTH ABOUT YOUR BUSINESS.

Madison C. Peters Says It Is an Awful Bargain to Sell Goods and Soul at the Same Time—Good Manners a Winning Force.

Do All Things Well.

I cannot better introduce the few secrets of success to which I must limit mysolf in this article than by quoting a paper which is interesting in itself and from it3 history. Some of you may remember the burning of the steamer Henry Clay on the Hudson river in 1852. Among the victims of that criminal disaster was the Hon. Stephen Allen, an old and rich merchant of New York, and who had been mayor with credit to himself and satisfaction to his constituents. On his body was found a well worn newspaper slip containing the following good maxims:

Keep pood company or none. Never be idle. If your hands cannot be usefully employed, aitend to the cultivation of your mind.

Always speak the truth. Make few promises. Live up to your engagements. Keep your own secrcts, if you have any. When you speak to a person, look him in the face.

Good company and good conversation are the very sinews of virtue. Good character is above all things else.

Your cTharacter cannot be essentially injured, except by your own acts. If any one speaks evil of you, let your lifo be so that none will believe him.

Drink no kind of intoxicating liquors. Ever live (misfortunes excepted) within your income.

When you retire to bed, think over what you have been doing during the day. Make no haste to be rich, if you would prosper.

Small and steady gains give competency with tranquillity of mind! Never play at any kind of game of chance.

Avoid temptation, through fear you may not withstand it. Earn money btjforc you spend it.

Never run in debt unless you see a way to get out again. Never borrow, if you can possibly avoid it.

Do not marry until you are able to supporS a wife. Never speak evil of any one.

Be just before you are generous. Keep yourself innocent, if you would be hap-

pySave when you are young to spend when j-ou arc old.

Both the merchant and the salesman may consult these maxims with advantage. In the spirit of these hints let me further observe: Tell the whole truth about your business. Don't let unfair competitionvtempt you from the straight line. It is an awful bargain that a man makes when he sells his goods and his immortal soul at the same time.

From the moment you enter the service of a firm their interest must be yours. Guard their interests as your own. Avoid whatever may injure them. Take hold of the humblest piece of work that comes along and push it to the highest success. Do it as if it were the grandest thing you ever expected to do. Whatever you do, do it well. A rival of a certain lawyer sought to humiliate him publicly by saying: "You! You blacked my father's boots once." "Yes," replied the lawyer unabashed, "and I did it well," and because of his habit of doing even mean things well he rose to greatness. Many young men's performances may all be summed up in the phrase "eye service." When their employers are present they are extremely diligent, when absent models of sloth and unfaithfulness. The young man who rises is he who is always at his post, advancing himself toward usefulness.

Good Manners Win.

Good manners area winning force in life. "Manners make the man," and a mail's manners are often the making of him. They determine his reception among his fellows. No policy pays like politeness. Unmannerly actions are among the most expensive luxuries of life.

Keep your engagements. If a man's word cannot be depended on when he makes an engagement, he will be mistrusted.

Never disregard appearances. The apparel often proclaims the man. Dress affects a man's manners and morals. A general negligence of dress very often proclaims a corresponding negligence of address. Costly thy habit as thy purse can buy, But not expressed in fancy—rich, not gaudy.

What Success Is Not.

When a rich man passes, most people sigh,

4

'How I should like to be that man!" We worship success by itself apart from the means used to get it. To be a successful man is enough, no matter what has preceded it Men bow down when he passes as in the fable the people bow down to the golden idols that were strapped on the back of a donkey who was ass enough to swell with pride because he thought all this reverence was for him.

Money has its uses, but you need not be rich to be good and happy and useful. Emerson says, "Give me health and ..a June day, and I will make the pomp of kings ridiculous," and if with that a man can add God's smile and love how he pours contempt on the flimsy, fading possessions of the merely rich!

What Is Capital?

Capital is not what a man has, but what a man is. Character is capital honor is capital. Take, then, no thought for aught save truth and right, Content, if such thy fate, to die obscure. Youth fails and honors, fame may not endure, A:id loftier souls soon weary of delight. •Keep innocence be all a true man ought. .i neither pleasure tempt, nor pain appall. Who hath this, he hath all things, having naught "mi hath it not, hath nothing, having all."

Treating.

Treating is the cause of more than of our drunkenness. America is the country where this silly and exive show of hospitality is reoog-«-I. Many of our young men are Gb-..-lied in intemperance because they

I themselves bound by a law of re"ncal generosity to treat. Let us proit treating by law.

HOW TO HANDLE A REVOLVER.

Some Points Well Worthy of Notice Given by an Expert In Pistol Practice.

According to the best authority, the body must be balanced equally on each foot, slightly facing the target, and the arm held perfectly straight out. The arm should never be bent. The hand grasps the revolver high on the butt, with the thumb well around to the inside and straight, and the trigger finger entirely free. This throws the work of holding the revolver wholly on the outer fingers. The object of 'this position of the hand is to get the barrel in exact line with the arm when extended, thus bringing the target, the sights and eye in one line. This position also minimizes the effect of trembling and wabbling of the arm. Tho weapon being properly aimed, it should be held there and the trigger very gently and steadily pressed. The mind should forget the possibility of an explosion, and the whole attention devoted to holding the sights of the revolver in exactly the proper position on the target. Above all things should the shooter keep up a steady pressure with tho trigger finger, and on no account yield to the temptation to add just a little more force suddenly. The technical terms expressing these qualifications are "good holder" and "good trigger pull." There are individuals who cannot put three bricks in line on a table. Such can never learn to shoot. Further, the sight of a pistol may send the cold shivers down your back. In this case also you will have something to overcome before you can become an expert shot.

How to Make Tea Punch.

Use heated metal bowl. Take onehalf pint of good brandy, one-half pint of rum, one-quarter pound of loaf sugar dissolved in water, an ounce of best green tea, a quart of boiling water and a large lemon.

Infuse the tea in the water. Warm a silver or other metal bowl until quite hot, place in it the brandy, rum, sugar and tho juice of the lemon. The oil of the lemon peel should be first obtained by rubbing with a few lumps of sugar. Set the contents of the bowl on fire, and while flaming pour in the tea gradually, stirring with a ladle. It will continue to burn for some time and should be ladled into glasses while in that condition. A heated metal bowl will cause the punch to burn longer than if a china bowl is used.

How to Make Chestnut Croquettes.

The most delicious accompaniment to turkey aro chestnut croquettes. Use 50 Spanish chestnuts, 2 gills of cream, 8 tablespoonfuls of butter, one-fourth of a tablespoonful of salt, 4 eggs and some sifted bread crumbs for breading the croquettes.

Shell and blanch the chestnuts, put them in a stewpan with enough boiling water to cover them and boil for 30 minutes. Drain off all the water and pound the chestnuts in the mortar. When thoy are very fine, add a tablespoonful of the butter and continue pounding until it is well mixed with the chestnuts. Now add the remainder of the butter and the salt and pound for ten minutes longer. Add of the cream a little ait a time.

When all the cream has been worked into the chestnuts, rub the mixture through a puree sieve. Beat 3 eggs till -light and then beat them into the strdined ingredients. Put the mixture into the double boiler and cook for about eight minutes, stirring constantly. It should be smooth and thick at the end of this time if the water in the outer boiler has been boiling rapidly. Spread it on a large platter and set away to cool. Wlieh the mixture is cold, butter the hands slightly and shape the mixture into cylinders, cones or balls. Spread these with the fourth egg and the fine crumbs. Fry for one minute and a half. Arrange on a warm napkin and serve at once.

How to Make a "Bird's Nest."

Boil some yellow macaroni gently until it is quite swelled out and tender then cut it in pieces the length of a finger and lay them on a dish like a straw 'nest. Truss pigeons with the heads on (having scalded and picked them clean), turned under the left wing, leave the feet on, and having stewed them arrange them as in a nest. Pour gravy over and serve. The nest may be made of boiled rice or bread cut in pieces the length of a finger and fried a nice brown in hot lard or butter seasoned with salt and pepper. Any small bird may be stewed or roasted agd served in this way.

How to Beautify Old Books.

The books we love best have usually the most worn covers. Something effective and inexpensive as well is made of gray canvas, hand painted with red poppies and bound with gay red taffeta ribbon. This cover need cost but a few cents. Covers of pongee silk, bound with brown ribbon and having some suitable quotation embroidered in brown floss and gold threads, are very pretty.

A sentimental young woman has slipped over the binding of her favorite book a gay little cover made from a scrap of her first ball gown. The silk is light blue in color and is bordered with the monograms of the different men she danced with. Suede book covers are convenient for magazines, as are covers made of thick water color paper. The latter have two sheets joined together at the back by ribbons braided in and out through little holes, which are pierced along the edge of both sheets of the paper. The front sheet of the cover is hand painted.

How to Mail a Postage Stamp.

Cut with a sharp penknife two parallel slits at tho top of your letter and Blip in your stamps, which will thus travel safely. To send change in a let* ter, out a piece of light cardboard the size of the envelope and from this enfc ciroular pieces the size of your coins. Insert the coins and paste a piece of paper on one or both sides.
