BUNDY'S STORIES OF LINCOLN. riie Congressman Tells of tbe War Prenl- dent'g Kindness of Heart. Representative Bundy of Ohio was an elector for Abraham Lincoln. "The following reminiscences about 'Old Abe," said Mr.

Bundy, "have never been in print. I heard them while visiting my town to see him In 1862, on which occasion I had come on to Washington to secure the release of a Union recruiting officer who had been unjustly charged with having made false vouchers of enlistments and had been sent to Baltimore and placed in jail at Fort McHenry. Before me in the line of those waiting to see the president was the wife of a colonel of an Illinois regiment who had been captured and was imprisoned in the south. She wanted to secure a special order of exchange for her husband. "I can't do it, madam," said Mr.

Lin coln in his most polite manner. "There have been altogether too many special exchanges already. Besides Jeff Davis won't do anything I want him to do. He has 60,000 privates in his kingdom whom I should prefer to exchange rather than your husband." "But my husband is a brave man and loyal one. I cannot understand what you mean," was the lady's reply.

Madam," responded Lincoln as. he pulled his old quill pen from behind his ear, "with this pen I can make a colonel in five seconds, but I cannot give him a regiment." Then he added kindly: "Go and see General Hatch, who has exchanges. If he will grant your request, I will not interfere." 'The next person in line," continued Mr. Bundy, "was a man with some alleged letters of loyalty from an ex-governor of Maryland. As he handed them to Mr.

Lincoln another man caught what had been said and interrupted the conversation to tell Lincoln that the papers must have been forged, as the Maryland ex-gov ernor had been acaa tor several years. The man who had brought iu the letter collapsed, and Lincoln, with that peculiar pity which ho could show even to those who least deserved it, replied quickly: Oh, never mind, sir; never mind, sir! It is far more interesting. I would rather get a letter from a dead man than from a live man any day. The third to have a conversation with the president was a Wall street broker and adventurer who wanted to be made assistant secretary of the treasury, so as to relievo the government, as he declared, by floating an issue of bonds. His plan was to borrow for the government a certain amount of money on a pledge of 000 of United States bonds! which were to be issued ns collateral for the payment of the loan.

The plan of the schemer was very evidently to break the price of the bonds and then get possession of them at a price less than the market, for his margin was very narrow. Mr. Lincoln listened patiently untu the man was through, and then as he eyed him closely he said solemnly, My friend, that is a mighty good plan to get bonds for less than they arc worth, and very well thought out; but, as he shook his head, don't ask'me to help you in it. 1 At last it was Mr. Bundy turn.

He told Mr. Lincoln, by way of Introduction, that he had boon a Lincoln elector, and that what lie wanted to ask of him was 6imply an act of justice to the falsely im prisoned recruiting oiheer. Mr. Lincoln hoard the story, and then said, "My friend, when aro you going to start for home?" It was Saturday and Mr. Bundy told the president that, as ho did notN travel Sunday, ho should not start un til early Monday morning.

Mr. Lincoln paused a moment, and then said, "Well, sir, unless you start for Ohio at once your friend will beat you home." Itiing an Injury. "You intmlt a good says the Mannyunk philosopher, "when you peak of some poople leading a dog's life. Philadelphia Kecord- Eists That Xo Femila Should Ever Heglect A LADY'S GOOD ADVICE. A Careful Explanation of tha Cause of Most of Their Trouble and What They Should Do.

Women are great sufferers." "Pale, aunken-eyed maidens who gaze with regret on their hollow chests, slender arms, and projecting collar bones; bloodless, haggard look ing mothers, miserable sufferers front stomach troubles and distressing ail ments peculiar to their sex, such is the modern woman," sajs a recent writer in the home doctor. "And is it not a lamentable fact," she asks, "that there are really very few women today who are hale and healthy to the core, and that this sad state of affairs is to be attributed to our fast, nervous way of living?" "But," someone objects, "if this is so, why are men blest with greater power of endurance and better Health?" One main reason is that men pay more attention to their health. They know that sickness means not only misery but loss of time and money. omen too often allow themselves to beoome the slaves of weaknesses that could be easily overcome by the use of timely remedy. And yet there are thousands of bright, happy women who have discovered the truth of this.

They are never sick or despondent, dragged out or irritable. They are always well because they have discovered that a reliable remedy taken at the right time enables them to keep healthy aad strong. This is why so many women think so highly of Warner's Safe Cure, and recommend it at all times as being the best remedy that a woman can take. If it were not so, Warner's Safe Cure would never have stood tbe test of years and received no many strong endorsements from emi nent physicians. It has made friends through, merit alone.

It is popular everywhere because it is known to be safe and reliable. Nothing demonstrates so clearly the value of this great medical discovery as the unsolicited testimonials of those who owe health and strength to its use. Here, for instance, is one selected from letters written by ladies which tell of the benefits they have received through taking this splendid remedy: riskant Falls, N. Feb. 27, 1804.

Messrs. II. II. Warner Co. Gentlemen: I can not find words strong enough to praise Warner's Safe Cure, but as it might do some of my etllioted sisters good, I will briefly state what six bottles of Warner's Safe Cure have done forms.

Two years ago my right side was completely paralyzed, owirg to what doctors term coo jest ion of liver. I could not dress myself; my right side and arm were entirely useless; my skin yellow and parchment; my ex-tremeties always cold, and so completely nsed np was I that my doctors gave me up to die. One day a pamphlet was put in my house, and as 1 saw that others whose cases were some what similar, had been cured I determined to give Warner's Safe Cure a trial. Before I had finished two bottles, I could use my hands and dress myself; and after taking six bottles, uing at tbe same time Warners Safe Pills, 1 was entirely restored to health. I was able to walk and work, and am in better health now than I have been for several years.

There are many kinds of medicine in the market, but I know that when everything else failed, Warner's Safe Cure and Safe Pills saved my life and made me well. Margaret Foster. UNTIL OCTOBER 1st In Which to Take Advantage of This Grand Offer. Just think of S1 poor sick patients aftpr being doctored for years without relief, are now all wearing smiling faces and enjoying good health. This is the number of patients that ere treated at the New York Ohio Private Dispensary during the month of August, on a positive guarantee If they were dissatistied that on September 1st, every dollar they paid the doctors would be returned to them, and not a single soul returned for their money, thus demonstrating the fact that these doctors cure after all others fall.

Durinic the month of September the doctors will continue to treat catarrh In all Its forms, rheumatism, female diseases and (iiscaMes of the stomach, liver and kidneys for and per month, according to case, and furnish alt medicines free of charge. All who lake a full course of treatment will be given a draft for the amount they pay the physicians, payable at sight, in gold at the Second National bank of Akron. In case the doctors-fail to cure, take or send this draft to the bank and receive the amount you have deposited with the'doctors In gold. This gold draft is even more ot a protection for the patient than the doctors, and no such offer was ever made before by any physician on earth, nor neither would these doctors make It if they were not sure of their ability to cure.

How They Went Out ot Fashion and Were Succeeded by The Bell Pall The Electrie Doorbell Is Said to Be a Continual Mnl- "More convenient? No; that's a- mistake. The electric doorbell is no more convenient than the mechanical pulL I know people generally think it is, but It Is not, and, to go a little farther back. It la not half as convenient as the old fashioned knocker, which docs its work for a lifetime without any repairs. Perhaps you have not given any attention to this subject of door signals? No? Well, I have, and I oonoluded long ago that the simplest thing is the best. The evolution of door signals is a very interesting subject.

"Any middle aged New Yorker can remember when every good front door in this city bore two bits of metal the door-plate, with the occupant's name, and some distance above it the knocker. The knocker is the most natural of all door signals, following directly after the original plan of knocking with the knuckles. "Knockers are still in use to some extent in nearly all the older cities in this country except New York, and even here we have a few left, but only enough to look odd. There was a reason for their disappearance from our New York houses. It was not fashion that drove them out, but convenience.

At first our dwelling houses were broad in front and shallow, but as land increased in value their form changed, and they became, as they still remain, narrow and deep. In our deep modern houses the kitchen is sometimes nearly 100 feet away from the front door, and the servants could not bear the knocker. It is necessary to have a signal that can be heard in the kitchen. "The long mechanical wire, with a handle at the front door and a big jingle bell in the kitchen, was not the only ininiedi-rte successor to the knocker. There came at about the same time a curious pneumatic contrivance that was used for a short time in some of the large New York houses.

This was an airtight tin tube running from the front door to the servants' quarters. Pulling the handle operated a small air pump, which forced a current of air through tbe pipe and drove out a wooden plug at the kitchen end. The plug was attached to the end of the tube with a string, and as It flew out It struck a gong and gave the alarm. The vibration of the plug showed which bell had been rung, and before going to the door the servant replaced the plug in tbe tube. "It was about as awkward a contrivance as any New Yorker could possibly have Invented, and very expensive, but it was thought at the time to be the height of convenience.

Its fame even reached Eu rope, and Sir Walter Scott, who was then building Abbotsford, was eo impressed with it that he had the pneumatic, tubes laid in all his walls instead of using wires. He suffered with the thing for several years, and then, like everybody else, tore It out and put in wires. The long mechanical wire running from the pull through the hall floor to the cellar, and then along the cellar beams till it reaches the kitchen, and up through the kicthen floor to the big jingle bell mounted on a spring, was the legitimate successor to the knocker, and that is still the most satisfactory door signal that has ever been used in this city. Thousands of these bells are still in use, and many of them will doubtless continue in use till the style changes again. They can be put in quite as cheaply as an electric bell, no matter what distance is to be traversed.

and when once put wp they are good for almost a lifetime without any attention. "The modern bells that ring on the back of the door or up by the hall ceiling are cheaper than the long pull, but they are open to the same objection as the knocker that they cannot bo heard in the kitchen in our large city houses. They answer well enough in small houses, though even there they have a cheap effect. should not bo at all surprised if New York came back to the old knocker, perhaps with an electric attachment to repeat the knocking in the kitchen. There is nothing like a knocker for individuality.

What American ever went to- Quebec without being impressed by the shining brass knocker on every door? And in Havana they are still more impressive. There it is no uncommon thing to see a knocker as big as a man's head and so heavy that the very walls vibrate when it strikes. The door knockers illustrate the characteristics of these two cities in a curious fashion. Quebec people are very neat, and the brass knockers are frequently scoured; consequently the paint around the knocker is soon rubbed off the front door, leaving an unsightly scar. But in Havana they are not so particular, and no paint is scoured off.

"A bell pull is a knob, and you cannot, make anything else of it, and an cloctrio button In hardly visible from the sidewalk, but a knocker is capable of all sorts of artistic effects. I imagine that the coming New York knocker will have a low. ing appearance, and that our best houses will bo distinguishable by the characteristic knocker. In that case a fashiona- ble lady's card, instead of giving her street number, might read, 'At the great elephant's head. Forty-seventh street, between Fifth and Sixth "It is to my mind a certainty, at any rate, that nine-tenths of the electric bells will disappear from private houses within a short time.

In hotels and large institutions, where there is some one to take care of them, they are a great convenience, but in private houses they are more frequently nn aggravation. This will be no loss to the electrical business, for there is no money In putting in or repairing electric bells." New York Sun. The gold deposits found at Cripple Creek are not richer in value than Dr. Price's Cream Baking Powder. Fans In the Eighteenth Centarr.

A letter in the London Spectator dated May, gives a most interesting description of an academy where ladies could be drilled in the proper use of their fans and initiated into the mysteries of "the angry flutter, the modest flutter, the timorous flutter, the confused flutter, the merry flutter and the amorous flutter. In the eighteenth century, at dancing assemblies in London, Bath and other places of fashionable resort, gentlemen chose their partners by "lottery of the fan." The fans of al' the ladies present were placed in a hat. whence each gentleman bad the privilege of selecting one, tlio lady to whom it belonged becoming his allotted part ner for the evening. li course sucn a custom entailed a great study of fans on the part of the gentlemen. Boswell, Steel and Pope all found something to.

say about the fan, and Guy, enlarging upon the efforts of his pmlexessors, wrote a long poem in praise of the fan, attributing its invontittn to Venus.

DEFEATS BREEDING DISCOXTEXT. Frople IHapIeaaed With Poor Showing Against the Japs IA Buns; Chang's Overthrow Expected Chinese Troops Evacuate Korea. London. Sept 29. A dispatch from Vienna to the Chronicle says that a semi-official telegram from St.

Peters burg, announces that the Russian gov ernment has learned of a rebellion against the Manchoorian dynasty. It is probable that there is much exaspera tion against all tbe Chinese authorities on account of the defeats of the Chinese troops and the lack of discipline in the army. The dispatch adds that the ir regular troops are everywhere commit ting disgraceful outrages. The Chinese exchequer is empty and the government is hardly able to supply the wants of the troops already in the field. A dispatch from Shanghai says: It is reported there that the Japanese have succeeded in entering the Chinese prov ince oi Juancnoona, ana tnat they are advancing upon the capital Moukden, It is also said that fighting has also taken place between the invaders and the Chinese at a town between that citv ana tne irontier ana tne Jans were victorious.

However, there is no con firmation of this rnmor. It is believed that the emperor con templates a change of advisers and the dismissal of all the mandarins and oth ers who have been concerned in the con duct of the war. Affairs at Pekin are tending toward an imperial coup d'etat involving the overthrow of Li Hung Chang and other statesmen. It is reported that the Emperor has granted Li Hnng Changs request to be allowed to take the field in person, and that Li Hung Chang will make hishead- marterfl at To. Tai, near Kai Ping, tbe present headquarters of the provincial commander-in-chief of Chih Li.

It is also reported that the Chinese troops have evacuated Korea and are now massed at Chiu Lien Ching, 30 miles westward of the Yalu river. It is stated that there have been num erous desertions from the Chinese army of late because of the faulty condition of the arms and 'ammunition supplied to the troops.

Small's Daughter Wants Divorce.

Knoxville. Sept. 29. Mrs. Zolla Small Jackson, daughter of Rev.

Sam W. Small, the Georgia evangelist, has filed a bill here askinsr absolute divorce from her husband, James Jackson, who comes from one of the oldest families in East Tennessee. They were secretly married at the Springs two years ago, naving only known each other two weeks. Jackson's father had just died at the time and left him $40,000. This fortune, it is alleged, was spent in a year in dissipation.

Flogged by a Girl Be Slandered. Cochtland, Sept. 29. Abe Abrahams, a prominent merchant, has been publicly cowhided here by Miss Lucille Doss, daughter of Porter Doss, proprietor of the Doss hotel. It is said that Abraham made a disparaging remark about Miss Doss which reached her ear.

Abraham was also attacked by a brother of the young lady and would have been killed but for the interference of the chief of police, who arrested all the parties. Duo's Review of Trade. New York, Sept. 29. R.

O. Dun Weekly Review of Trade today says: Special inquiry has been made this week at all commercial centers regarding the state of retail trade. Wide diversity appears in different trades. The main facts disclosed are, first, marked improvement within the past month and a considerable excess over the business done a year ago, particularly in the necessaries of life. Science and experience concur in the judgment that Dr.

29. Prof. Angelo Heilprin, the president of the Geographical club, has been interviewed on the probability of future aid to Lieutenant Peary. Mrs. Peary has announced her intention of organizing another expedition to bring her husband back from Greenland, but from the expression of dissatisfaction with the lieutentant's management it is possible she may not be successful.

"In the event of her failure," Professor Heilprin was asked, "will the Geographical club come to her assistance?" "No action has as yet been taken by the club, and none has been considered," he replied. "I think the individual members of the club will see to it that he is brought back in safety; the club may do so as a body." "Could not Lieutenant Peary get back without help?" "It is not impossible for him to return without assistance." "Is there any necessity for another relief expedition?" "It is imminently necessary that there be another relief expedition." Well mau Will Go Again. Washington, Sept. 29. Walter Well-man, the newspaper correspondent who distinguished himself by a dash for the North pole this summer, has arrived at his home.

He was accompanied by Mrs. Wellman, who went on to New York to meet him. Over the partial failure of his expedition, Mr. Wellman is in no wise discouraged. So confident is Mr.

Wellman of the feasibility of the plan of which he was the originator that he will make another attempt to reach a hitherto unattained latitude next summer and will make it along the same general lines which he pursued this year. He will spend the winter perfecting his plans. Mrs. Peary Is Indignant. Washington, Sept.
