"Albert Bigclow Paine‘s biography
of Mark Twain does not. contain
the anecdote of him which follows
and which shows his prepmidcrating
”use of, humor under very annoy-
ing circumstances. The incident
took place a. short time before his
last tisit to “My. a trip ".llli‘ll v.19

“The family had all been congrat-
ulating ihr-mselves that the exten—

had finally been brought to a sat-
isfactory conclusion, when one eve~
ning out of a. clear sky came a. :zlbic-
gram, announcing that the other
parties in interest had thought bet-
ter of their bargain and refused to
abide by the terms agreed upon.
Mark's face fell as he read the dis-
patch. He could hardly believe his
eyes. After recovering from his as—
tonishment and making sure that
hthcre was no error in the dispatch,
he gave rein to his anger.
"'Damn ’cml,’ he said, 'I wish——

incnce outside the daily press. The
prvss responded with special cduua-
tlonal editions, editorials. and infor-
mation in their columns based large.
ly upon the facts sent out by the
Bureau of Education.
More than a. million sermons and
addresses were deliverdd upon the
subject of education during the
week. The response of the church-cs
was much greater than has been the
case in previous years. Clubs of
all kinds, particularly noonday lun-
cheon clubs, Rotary, Kiwanis. Lions.
and others. were notably active in
the campaign. A new feature of
the week's observance this year was
the active participation of the mo-

schools. and new projects originat-

crete results will surpass anything

history of education in America.

iLincoln Arrested
Thai. Abraham. Lincoln once was
arrested in W’sshlngton. D. C.. while
he was President of the United
States is revealed in McClure's Ma-
gazine for December by Joseph
Christian s former jockey. who was,
Lincoln's war-time "vslet" and

This hiierto unchronicled epio
sode in the Me of the martyr-presi-
dent oceurred one day during the
latter part of the Civil Wsr while
Christian was driving"tho President
home from a, trip to the Arterial and
the Navy yard.
The cocchmsn. who now is seven-
ty-cight years old. recalls the incid-
ent as follows:
"We came up past the old Cspltol.
It was filled with rebel prisoners. A
guard was pacing up and down in
front of it. The rules and regula-
tions of this improvised prison were
that no carriages should pm unless
they went fast. I didn‘t know about
the rule, so 1 let the horses walk.
"The guard saw us and yelled:
"l‘rot along there; trot along there!’
I didn't like the way he spoke to us
so I paid no attention to him. He
glared at me for a second. then

“ ‘Don't. you know the rules and

I told him no. ,
“ 'Wcll.‘ he snapped—for he was a
young corporal and very important-
the rules are to drive by last. I place
