UfiCOLN AND THE COMET STORY.

Colonel Tom Nelson's Story Repeated In the Hemtfou Life of Lincoln. In the spring of 1849 Mr. Lincoln started from Spring ti eld to Washington City, as he then supposed, to accept the Commissionersliip of the General Land Office. He traveled by stage. Herndon says : During the journey occurred an incident for -which Thomas H. Nelson,, of Terre Haute, Indiana, who was appointed Miuister to Chili by Lincoln when he was President, is authority. In the spring of 1849, relates Nelson, Judge Abram Hammond, vrbr was afterward Governor of Indiana, and I arranged to go from Terre Haute to Indianapolis in the stagecoach. An entire day was usually consumed in the journey. By daybreak the stage had arrived from the west, and as we stepped in we discovered that the entire back seat was occupied by a long, lank individual, whose head seemed to protrude from one end of the coach and his feet from the other. He was the sole occupant, and was sleeping soundly. Hammond slapped him familiarly on the shoulder, and asked him if he had chartered the car for the day. The stranger, now wide awake, responded certainly not, and at once took the front seat, politely surrendering to us the place of honor and comfort. We took in our traveling companion at a glance. A queer, odd-looking fellow he was, dressed in a well-worn and ill-fitting suit of bombazine, without vest or cravat, and a 25 cent palmleaf hat on the back of his head. His very prominent features seemed dull and expressionless.' Regarding him as a good subject for merriment, we perpetrated several jokes. He took them all with the utmost innocence and good nature, and joined in the laugh, although at his own expense. At noon we stopped at a wayside hostelry for dinner. We invited him to eat with us, and he approached the table as if he considered it a great honor. He sat with about half his person on a small chair, and held his hat under his arm during the meal. Resuming our journey after dinner, conversation drifted into a discussion of the comet, a subject that was then agitating the scientific world, in which the stranger took the deepest interest. He made many startling suggestions and asked many questions. We amazed him with works of learned length and thundering sound. After an astounding display ofwordy pyrotechnics, the dazed and bewildered stranger asked : "What is going to be the upshot of this comet business?" I replied that I was not certain-; in fact, I differed from most scientists and philosophers, and was inclined to the opinion that the world would follow the darned thing off! Late in the eveningvro reached Indianapolis, and hurried to Browning's Hotel, losing sight of the stranger altogether. We retired to oar roomto Wash and wash away the dust of the journey. In a few minutes I descended to the portico, and there descried our long gloomy traveler in the center of an admiring group of lawyers, among whom were Judges McLean and Huntington, Edward E. Hannegan. Albert S. White, and Richard W. Thompson, who seemed to be amused and interested in a story he was telling. I inquired of Browning, the landlord, who he was. " Abraham Lincoln, of Illinois, a memberof Congress," was the response. I was thunderstruck at the announce-, meat. I hastened up stairs and tolcf Hammond the startling news, and together we emerged from the hotel by a back door and went down an alley to another house, thus avoiding further contact with our now distinguished fellow-traveler. Curiously enough, years alter this Hammond Lad vacated the office of Governor of Indiana a few days before Lincoln arrived in Indianapolis on his way to Washington to be inaugurated President. I had many opportunities after the stage ride to cultivate Mr. Lincoln's acquaintance, and was a zealous advocate of his nomination and election to the Presidency. Before leaving his home for Washington, Mr. Lincoln caused John P. Usher and myself to be invited to accompany him. We agreed' to join him in Indianapolis. On reaching that city the Presidential party had already arrived, and, upon inquiry, we were informed that the President-elect was in the dining-room of the hotel at sapper. Passing through, we saw that every seat at the numerous tables was occupied, but failed to find Mr. Lincoln. As we were searing the door to the office of the hotel, a long arm reached to my shoulder and a shrill voice exclaimed : "Hello, Nelson! Do you think after all tl e world is going to follow the darned thing off ? It was Mr. Lincoln. The Burglar Who Drew the Line at German Silver. Singular as the custom may seem, there are many New England homes where coffin-plates of dead relatives and cherished friends are kept as mantelpiece ernamenfs or on the centertables in the parlors. One family in New Milford ' is said to have no less than fourteen brass, silver and plated relics taken from the coffins of dead members of the family, reaching down to within fifty years of the founding of the colony, two centuries and a half ago. The oldest of this rare collection of coffin-plates bears the name and date of the birth and death of one of the original settlers of New Haven colony. It is black and discolored by the lapse

of time, but the family would as soon think of parting with it as they would of losing the family Bible which contains the genealogical records of the entire race. An amusing story is told about the coffin-plates collected by a Stratford family. There were nine or ten of them in places of honor about the parlor of the old-fashioned farmhouse. Some years ago an irreverent burglar entered the house at night, and seeing the glittering mementos of the dead decorating prominent pieces of furniture in the room, dumped them ail into his booty-bag, and, together with the silver knives and forks and what other portable household effects he could conveniently carry, made his exit un

molested. Great was the consterna

tion of the easy-going farmer and his family when they awoke the next morning to find that their dining-room silverware had been carried off, but they were shocked beyond expression when they discovered the rape of the coffinplates, which could not be replaced at any cost. They were proportionately gratified a day or two later to receive a box by express in which were packed all the missing coffin-plates. With it was a note in a rough hand, which said : "Here is your coffin signboards. I have found they wasn't much but German silver in them, and that ain't my line. You're welcome to 'em, and thanks for your silver in spoons, which I'll keep. Tata !" Robert Conner's Stables. Mr. Bonner goes to church in Dr.

Hall's fashionable Presbyterian temple on Fifth avenue, and immediately behind it stand his haudsome stables, which, like the church, are built of brick and overgrown with vines. He is a regular attendant on Sundays upon Dr. Hall's ministrations, and a still more regular attendant upon Maud S. He paid W. H. Vanderbilt $40,000 for her, and when the latter repented of his bargain and offered him $60,000 to get the light-heeled lady back he utterly refused to consider the question of parting from his equine charmer, and has steadily refused every offer since. They say at the stables that Maud is provided for in the rich publisher's will, and whether he lives or dies she will pass all her days in luxury and ease. Immediately after church on Sundays he steps around to the stables . to see how she is and give her a lump of sugar, while she rubs her velvet nose on his shoulders and makes little feminine sounds of pleasure. She is very fond of Bonner as her master and protector, but her real love is Murphy, the jockey, whose very step "she knows, though she only sees him once in along while. She never forgets him, no matter how much time elapses between their meetings. Another famous horse in these Bonner stables is Karus, who has developed a shocking temper and a pair of tender feet in his declining years, and is really of very little service, though Bonner loves and cares for him for the wonderful horse he has been, for that matter still is, barring these little discrepancies. Dexter died iu these stables, and, indeed, old horsemen are inclined to take off their hats in passing the place from a reverential feeling that this is a sort of shrine of American horseflesh, while Bonner himself feels that respect for himself only possible to the man who has been the owner of three of the most famous horses in the world. Maud wears a blanket embroidered with thi legend: "Maud S., Queen of the Turf," and above her hangs the only whip with which she was ever struck, on tne day that she made her great unbroken record. This whip is the property of her ndored Murphy, who keeps it as a precious relic. Perhaps she loves him best because he is the only man who ever struck her. Brooklyn Eagle. A Feast with Kbit' Mataafa. A resident of Sar.oa thus tells of a feast which he attended on invitation of King Mataafa: "I reached the King's house about 2 p. m. On entering I found Mataafa seated in a chair, made somewhat statelike by mats and tappa. The American Admiral sat on his right and a Mr. Hamilton, ex-Consul for the United States, on his left. I went up ahd shook hands with the King, who received me very graciously, and then I was shown to a chair ten or twelve paces frohi the King. "The King made a speech, which was interpreted by Mr. Hamilton, and then we all adjourned to the feasting pavilion, which was made by putting poles in the ground at intervals of five or six feet fastening cross pieces of wood so as to form a support for the tappa roofs. The pavilion, or continuous tent, was about sixty yards long. The table was the earth, covered with banana leaves, our seats also the earth, with mats to sit on. "The whole length of the 6 table was covered with roast pigs, fish, lobsters, prawn, fowls, duck, bread, sara, yams, etc., beer and wine, and eocoanuts young and full of milk to drink. I had my luncheon before I started, as I am a bad hand at a dinner, knife-and-fork-less and minus plates. However, I got some fine prawns, which I enjoyed. Nearly all the English, American, and French residents were present, but no Germans, though they were invited. "After dinner we returned to the King's house, and some girls danced and very well, too gracefully and prettily. They kept good time to the music, which consisted of seven or eight women singing. Then there was a sort of jester, who, I believe, said some clever and sarcastic things. I left about half-past 4, not feeling very well and somewhat tired. I shook hands with the King ere I left, saying good-by, which he repeated. He is a nice, quiet, well-behaved, gentlemanly fellow I should think about 50 years

old." Handed in by Slug Nine. When I think of the towel, the oldfashioned towel, that used to hang up by the printing-house door, I think that nobody in these days of shoddy can hammer out iron to wear as it wore. The tramp, who abused it, the devil, who used it, the osmp,, who got at it when these two were gone, the makeup and foreman, the editor, poor man, each rubbed some grime off while they put a heap on. In, over and under, 'twas blacker than thunder, 'twas harder than poverty, rougher than sin ; from the roller suspended it never was bended, and it flapped on the wall like a banner of tin. It grew thicker and rougher and harder and tougher, and daily put on a more inkier hue, until one windy morning, without any warning, it fell to the floor and was broken in two. Robert J. Burdette, in Brooklyn Eagle. About 400 miles of electric railway are already in operation in the United States, and many more under construction.

What Catarrh Catarrh Is au inflammation of the mucous membranes, and may affect tlie bond, throat, stomach, bowels, or bladder. Bat catarrh of the head is the most common, often coming on bo uraduaUy that it h;is a firm hold before the nature of the trouble is suspected. Catarrh is caused by a cold, or succession of colds, combined with impure blood. Its local symptoms are a sense of fullness and heat in the forehead, dryness In the nose and baafe pait of the throat, and r disagreeable discharge from the nose. When the disease pains a firm hold on the system It becomes chronic, and is then exceedingly dangerous and treacherous, liable to develop into consumption. Fortunate is it that we have in Hood's Sarsapaiilla the. remedy for this e ver-increasing: inaladv. It attacks at once t:o source of the disease by purifying and enriching the blood, which in passing through the delicate passages of the mucous membrane soothes and rebnills the tissues, giving them tendency to health instead of disease, and ultimately curing the affection. At the same time Hood's Sarsapaiilla builds up the whole system, and makes one feel that he has taken a new lease oi life.

Entirely Too Literal. Tommy Jones was not a very bright boy, and when his teacher, at the close of school one afternoon, told him he must write a composition on the pump to-morrow, he took her at her word. The next morning, therefore, instead of starting to school at the usual hour, he mounted the big wooden box pump in the yard, and with his slate on his knees began to write the desired composition. But Tommy's father happening to pass that way discovered him and asked why he was not off to, school. And when the boy replied that the teacher had told him to write a composition on the pump Mr. Jones burst out in a hearty laugh, much to Tommy's surprise. An explanation followed, and the boy jumped down from the pump and started for school, convinced that he needn't sit on a pump to write a composition on a pump or about a pump. Atlanta Journal.

The Lady and the FJour Barrel, She objected to the last barrel of flour which the giocer had brought, and after using a few scoopfuls from the top of the barrel, headed it up and told the grocer to take it away; she should use no such flour as that. The next barrel brought was perfectly satisfactory. "Now. that is something like flour," she told the family. But when she reached the bottom of the barrel, she found hor old flour-scoop, long missing. The grocer had merely brought back the same barrel, with the other head uppermost. Springjitkl Homes lead.

The Queen Regent of Spain has returned to Madrid after a few weeks at San Sebastian.

Danger from Catarrh Catarrh is an exceedingly disagreeable disease, its varied ejinptoniB discharge at the noie. bad breath, pain between the eyes, coughing, choking sensation, ringing noises in the ears, etc. -being not only troublesome to the sufferer, but offensive to o there. Catarrh is also Jangerous because it may lead to bronchitis or consumption. Being i blood disease, the true method of cure is to puiify the blood by taking Hood' SarsapariUa, which hae cured many severe cases of catarrh. "For several jears I had been troubled with a kind of asthma or catarrh in my throat, and had tried several kinds of medicine, but could find nothing to help me.
