QUITE INFORMAL.
Lincoln‘s Reception of the Notification
Committee.
In the "Biography of Charles Curle-
ton Collin" is his own account of ac-
companying the committee to the home
of Mr. Lincoln in Springfield, ills., to
notify him of his nomination for presi-
dent. 'l‘hcy reached Sringfield'esriy in
the evening, and after supper at the
hotel made their call on Lincoln. it
was not to be a very formal interview.
Lincoln stood in the parlor. dressed
in a blacklfrock coat. The announce.
ment was lnndc, and his reply seemed
brief. lie was evidently much con-
strained. but as soon as the last word
had been spoken he turned to Mr. Kel-
ley. of Pennsylvania. the chairman of
the committee. and said. "Judge. you
are a pretty tall man. How tall are
you?" .
“Six feet two."
“i beat you! i am six feet three
without my high heeled boots."
"Pennsylvania bows to lllinois.
Where We have been told. there were
only littlc giants. said-Kelley.
This was an allusion to Douglas. who
had been called the ‘I.itt|e Giant."
Ont» by one the members of the com-
mittee were introduced to Lincoln. and
when the linudshnklng was over he
said:
“Gentlemen. .‘Iirs. Lincoln will be
pleased to see you in the adjjoining
room. where you will find some rc-
(reshments," 4-
’l‘licrc .\irs.' Lincoln met them pleas-
.ntly. but the only visible sign of re-
freshments was it white earthen pitcher
tilled with ice water. 'inis was possi—
lily Mr. Lincoln's littls‘ioke, for it
and afterwards asrcrtaineti that his tie-
publicnn neighbors had offered to fur-
” ulleJsim-s mu! liquors-..which he re-
fusctl to have in his house, and that
his ’llemocratic friends had sent round
baskets of champagne, which were also
tlct-llnt-ti.

Machine Shops Can a.» Run More Eco?
nomlcnlly Without Them. 2
A few years ago the building of a
machine shop without a chimney would
have been looked upon us the not of tin
idiot. Now it may be the wisest thing
a builder can do, for the large fan
which is taking the place of the chim~
ncy costs a great deal less than the iof~
ty stuck and does its Work much bct-
ter. Besides this there is n grcut sav-
ing In fuel.
In one plant where this experiment
was tried there were, three boilers, ag-
gregating 2th) horsepower, and dircctly
above them was mounted a fan con-
ncctcil dirctt with a .‘i by 4 double cyl—
inder engine. The wheel of flitI fan was
M inches in diameter, and as it could2
bc rtin at any spced. it provided a drafti
quite independent of the lirc. It was!
rmssible to use a much cheaper gruriel
of coal and the saving thus effected was ,
quite appreciable.
For Instant". with it!" ordinary iorm'
of chimnc} the shop would use i.t‘v'.'-i,
tons of i‘umiveriand coal. at $3 63, ng-'
grcgating 8.3.0:!) a year. l'sing the
blower. a mixture of t'urnbcriaud coal'
and yard screenings. half and haii.j
would suffice. This at Sibfi'g'. would!
amount to $4.995, showing a difference
of $934. The cost of operating the fan‘
was placed at 81253 per nnnum so that'
the nct gain was 877d. a sum greater
than the cntirc cost of the mechanical
draft apparatus—St. Louis Globem

HOSE WATER AND RAIN.
Flowers know the difference between
a rainstorm and a drenching from the
garden hose. ,You may deluge themi
with barrels from the hydrant. and‘
they will at best simply hold their.
own. Generally they wither In the:‘
long. dry seasons and that without row
gard to the artificial wcttiug they may;
receive from the gardtncrs. lint let a.
litle shower. howevcr brief. fall uponl
them. and they brighten visibly.
The difference is that the ruin:
brings down with it through the air;
or collects in the air a chemical quill-1
ity that the vegetation needs. The
rainwater may be as like that in the'
lake as two volumes of water can be.
but when it has ridden the upper lev-l
els of the atmosphere. when it has'
traveled through the various stages of;
vapor and liquid "and has tumblcdf
down through that retort of the air. it:
has become charged with elements that ‘
ro man can give it. and the flower‘
knows and recognizes it. as the first
ticld flowers recognize it in the begin-i
hing. ‘
