V' A PROBLEM IN FINANCE.
'TV Question That Lincoln Fired at
N Secretary Chase.
l' The mysteries of duuuee were not
t always clear to Mr. Lincoln, whose
statesmanship was of another sui t.
- But his keen sense of humor would not
permit him to regard the difficult sub
"ject us too profound for au 'occasional
Joke.
One day Secretary Chase of the
treasury department found on a desk
In his office what at Urst appeared fb
be a picture of an 'Infernal machine."
, It looked like n goose, but ou further
examlnatiou it proved to be a drawing
'of an Ingenious Invention for turning
gold eagles Into greenbacks, with the
secretary himself working It and slow
ly feeding It with "yellow boys" at one
end. while the government currency
came out at the other eud. whirling
' about like the leaves of autumn.
While he was examining It the pros;
V Irlfiit came In. as he dally did. for con
sultation. Mr. Chase handed hliu the
drawing, and his eyes twinkled as he
v recognized the likeness of the secre
'j tary. ' ' v
"Capital joke. Isn't it. Mr Chase?"
be exclaimed.
- "A Joke:" repeated the Irate socre
- tary. "I'd give a jhousand dollars to
know who left It here:"
' "Oh. no." said Mr. Lincoln temper
ately. "you would hardly do that."
1 "Yes.-1 would!" stoutly asserted the
- " secretary.
' "Would you. though?" Inquired the
president, with that deliberate manner
J which characterized him when he was
' really In earnest. "Well, which end
