3 OREGON CITY COURIER, FRIDAY, FEB. 2, 1912 'I' i '1 i i Honest Abe I How President Lincoln iwnuucu a uiu iui Union Service By Captain F. A. Mitchel It seems incongruous that tbe gaunt, uncouth Illinois lawyer, Abraham Lin coin, should have presided over the most abundant crop of themes for ro mance that has ever been accorded to American authors. If any one of these romantic lnci "dents that occurred during the war be tween the states may be selected as standing out with especial prominence It is tbe making of the tunnel by Fed eral soldiers at the old tobacco ware bouse in Richmond, Va., that bad been turned Into Libby prison. The, story of bow these men, beginning in an old fireplace in the cellar, little by little scooped the earth away, forming a tun- nel Just large enough to admit or a man's body passing through it and leading out to a point beyond the wall, then escaped in a body, has been told again and again. Tbe story I am about to tell is connected with that escape. I feel bound to state, however, thnt. Bince the heroine was a real woman and I shall use her real name, only the main features are given as they actual ly occurred. In other words, they are Action founded on fact. But Mr. Lin coln's connection with the story I shall give in the words of the assistant of Edwin M. Stanton, secretary of war, as he told it at a dinner a number of years ago. One morning three men in blue uni forms that had fnded through exposure into a sort of green, whose trousers were in rugs and the soles of whose shoes flapped every time they stepped. approached a house a short distance southeast of Richmond, on the .lames river. They stood in a wood, where they were partly concealed, looking wistfully at the house. They were nun gry almost to starvation. They had recently escaped from Libby prison and bad lulu In hiding for four of recapture, with nothing Jo eat except a little corn pone furnished them by a negro. "I wonder if we'd better risk It, boys?" said one of the three. ir you ao, snia nnotner, "we n go back to that horrid pen. and- that means death to me. I'll be carried out with the regular load of dead." At that moment there was a clatter of hoofs of many horses, and the trio retired from the edge of the wood. A company of Confederate cavalry passed over the road not a hundred yards from where they ha 'I been standing and reined up in flout of the house they had been looking at. The com manding officer dismounted and went in, while the men waited outside on their horses. Presently be reappeared. ionowea uy a woman. They were talking together, but the men In tbe wood could not bear what they were saying. Then the Confederates moved on. "I wonder if they're looking for us,' said Captain Porter, one of the fugi tlves. "Doubt It," replied Lieutenant Dob son. "If they bad been they'd have sent a few men through the woods." ' But didn t you see their captain post men around the house when they rode up to it?" said Sergeant Swoitzer. "It's my opinion they were thinking we, might be there." ''Then why didn't they search the premises?" asked Porter. Meanwhile the sound of the horses' hoofs had died away. A girl's head was thrust out of a window of a loft in the barn. She looked up the road in the direction of the retreating horse men and listened. Then the head was withdrawn, and the girl, perhaps twen ty years oKJ. emerged from a lower door and went to the house. "That's the party they were looking for," said Dobson. "A girl?" exclaimed the other. . -xes, a gin. Ana sue must be a Union girl. They're Union people in there for sure. Come on, boys. I'll risk it." . "Vou d better go and reconnoiter. If the coast is clear you can call us." Captain Porter evideutly upon con sideration concluded to move cautious ly. Some of the Confederates might come back. So skulking behind trees, running along beside fences, he finally made a rear door and knocked. The woman who had talked with the Con federate leader came to-the door and, seeing a wretched specimen of human ity in a faded blue uniform, said, "Come in here quick." Porter went in, and she shut the door. In a few words he told how he and bis compan ions had escaped from Libby prison and how the others were skulking in the woods near by. The woman told him they hnd nothing to fear from her and bade him beckon his compunions to come to the house. He did so, and within a few minutes the three men had found a temporary abode. The first mutter of moment was the satisfaction of hunger. ' There was not much to eut in the house, but such as It was they were made welcome to it. While they were eating their hostess went upstairs, and they heard low tolces. Presently she came down, and with her was the girl they had seen in the barn. 'This young lady," said the woman, "is Miss Creen. She acted with some of tbe men who have escaped with you from Mbby prison, and the Con federates are hunting ber. A com pany of them stopped here a spell ago, looking for ber. I pretended to be a Confederate and lold thorn she had passed up the road not half an hour before toward her home. They didn't stop to look for here here, but went right on, expecting to get her." Captain Porter told Miss Green the story of his and his companion's es cape from Libby, intimating that get ting out of tbe prison was easier than making a journey to Union territory. They could never in the world find their way through the wilderness that lay between them and the northern states. Miss Green offered to pilot them. They discussed several routes of trav el, one being to go down the James river to Fortress Monroe, held by the Federal army; another to travel by the peninsula to the same point and a third to pursue a northensterly course to the mouth of the Potomac. Miss Green told them that the James river nt points was guarded by the Confederates and they w,ould find difficulty In going from Confederate territory to a Union fortress. If they went by the peninsula, since it was narrow, if they were stopped or pur sued they would be- pent In. She therefore recommended the route to the moulh of the Potomac. After resting all day and receiving what provisions they would need in the immediate future they started the same night. Passing oyer the battle fields that hnd been fought over by Lee and McClellan during the seven days' fighting around Richmond, they passed through fields and woods, guid ed by the girl, who knew well the ter ritory near tbe Confederate capitnl. Afterward she directed her course from the north star, keeping it over her left shoulder. Before dawn, she stopped at the house of a Union man which she had had In mind for the first relay. She went into the" house, while the men took to the barn. At nightfall they started again, having been provided with a fresh supply of provisions. Fortunately most of tbe night was clear, and their compass star was visible, but before dawn the sky became overcast, and, coming uiwu a negro hut, the girl approached It, and finding the occupants sympa thetic the party entered the cabin and went to sleep on the floor. The next day the colored owner of their retreat kept watch from morning till night to warn them if any one ap proached. But n negro hut was in war times the safest hiding place for an escaped Union prisoner of war, and hosts of Uncle Snm's boys availed themselves of these retreats. Wheu night fell they started again, without a supply of provisions but with their host as a guide over a strip of territory with which Miss Green was not familiar. But the next night, partly through her own knowledge and partly by knowledge acquired by inquiry for Miss Green was not In the same dan ger mm her companions she led tbem to the York river, where they appro printed a boat for crossing and the sec ond night after that reached the Rap pahannock. Here they did not meet with the same luck as at the York, and during the dny Instead of sleeping, were obliged to construct a raft on which to float themselves. It was ready by, evening, and as soon as the darkness fell they started, propelling themselves with flat pieces of board they had picked up. Though the dis tance from their starting point to the Potomac was but sixty miles, nearly a week passed before they approached Its shore. It was not only debatable ground for the armies, but most of the white people living on both the Mary land and Virginia shores were Confed erates. The river Itself was dominated by the Federal government. At dawn on the sixth day after their departure, the contour of the coun try Indicating thnt the river was but a snort distance ahead. Miss Green went forward while the men kept back. If she saw the river she was to drop her handkerchief. If the Confed erate flag was visible she was to hold the handkerchief suspended in ber left hand. If she saw the stars and stripes she was to wave. They watch ed her till she reached an eminence where she could get a good outlook, and a flood of Joy sprang up in their hearts. They saw her wave. I will tell the rest of the story as was mentioned in my introduction In the words of the secretary of war's assistant: 'One day Mr. Lincoln sent for me to come to the White House. 'My boy said he, 'there is a letter 1 would like to have you look at.' I picked up the letter and found it was from General Dlx, .conveying the information that several Federal prisoners had escaped from Libby prison with the aid of Ab- ble Green, a woman famous during the war. The letter also said that as the fact of Abbie's assistance to es caped Federal prisoners was well known she had been obliged to flee from Richmond and was on her way to Washington on the flag of truce boat. 'Now, my boy,' said the presi dent, 'I don't know what I should say to any rascal who would steal that letter and have a hill passed through congress to grant $10,000 to the relief of Abble Green.' "I 'stole' the letter, and the next day both branches of congress passed the bill to grant $10,000 to Abble Green. The following morning 'Honest Abe' sent for me again. 'I told you I did not know what I should say,' he said, with o twinkle in his eye, 'to the ras cal who would steal that letter and have congress act on it Now I're made up my mind. You go down to No. street, get Abble Green, take her down to Chase at the treasury, and don't you let her go till she gets that money.'" i ?iJW for Presidertt'A (fn irvQ$$Woocfror Wilson 3!pfep"3w iireiir inspiration Young Men of the Country May Well Look Up to Him as Master of His Calling.

In Particular, His Record as the Gov ernor of New Jersey Shows Him Worthy of Highest Position in the Gift of toe People. it would be hard to find a school boy over the age of twelve years who has not beard of the name of Wood row Wiison. Woodrow Wilson was born in Staunton, Virginia, December 28th, 1856. His father was the Rev. Joseph R. Wilson and one of the most in fluential churchmen of the south. At the age of two years his father moved to Augusta, Georgia, where he took charge of one of the largest and most Influential churches in the south. Augusta was then a city of about 15,000 Inhabitants, and it was here that the boyhood of the future governor of New Jersey and presi dent of Princeton was sDent. Rev. Wilson moved to Columbia, South Carolina, in the Autumn of 1870 and became a teacher' In the Southern Theological Seminary which position be held for four years. Woodrow continued to attend school. but most of his training was under the direct supervision of his father. and in spite of his late years to start at books he soon qualified for college and at seventeen he was sent to Davidson College, North Carolina, Princeton Training Valuable. In the autumn of 1875 he entered Princeton, where he graduated with the class of 1879. His going north to college was fortunate, for it gave him at an impressionable age an op portunity to understand the north ern, as well as the southern, point of view. in tne autumn or isss be was called to tbe chair of history and po litical economy In Bryn Mawr Col lege. This he held for three years, wnen ne was caned to a similar po sition in Wesleyan University. He remained there two years and was called to his alma mater, Princeton, as professor of Jurisprudence and po litical economy. Later in 1902 be was elected president of Princeton the second oldest university in the United States. He took his Ph. D. degree on examination In 1886, sub mitting as his thesis "Congressional Government." This Is considered the highest degree conferred by Institu tions of learning. When Dr. Wilson came to the presidency of Princeton he had beea. known as a scholar, author and pub lic speaker, but he was untested as an executive. In his presidential office he carried out the idea of leadership which be pronounced in his first book, and has held ever since, in office and out of office. He proposed something at Princeton that was a radical change from the old way; it was the com plete reorganization of the university In such a way as to bring into dally communication and companionship representatives of all classes and of the faculty. The proposal was against the tradition of Princeton, for It lent toward breaking up the self-elective clubs. "It sounded a startling note of democraoy and point ed out broad ways by which the youth of the country could be brought up for the service of the country." Young Men Look Up to Him. Woodrow Wilson has been an In spiration to many young men who have looked up to him as a master of his calling always helpful to oth ers, as individuals and as a body pol itic. He copies after no one and la- dividual thought is traceable in every essay and book that he wrote, but always regardful of the rights of oth ers. The reforms he has Inaugurated since he has been governor of New Jersey probably the worst corporation-ridden state In the union has put him prominently before the world. All over the country thoughtful men are writing and saying that he will be the Democratlo nominee for the presi dency when the convention convenes next summer. He Is by nature ana adaptation the fittest man for that of flee to he found In the United State. " FIGHTING THE RATEL This South African Badger Has a Grip Like a Bulldog. There is a curious long nosed little creature of South Africa palled the rntel. which is said to exhibit a most peculiar method of fighting its human adversaries. The son of a Britisher in South Africa who was using for the first time a shotgun had what hardly could be called an amusing experience with a rate). The boy saw the ratel creeping round an ant hill. He cantered off at a not very rapid pace, aud the boy fired at easy range. The animal turned heels over head, much in the same manner that a tame squirrel will disport Itself in a wheel cage. Tbe rate! paused once, as if in pain, but never took bis eyes off the boy. The lad did not think of running, but clubbed his gun and stood, prepared to meet a spring. It happened that the English boy bad never been told how the ratel fights. Almost every boy in the veldt knows, but this lad did not. To wait thus, ex peeting a leap breast high, is to give the ratel exactly the chance he wants. Hesitating not a second, the ratel gild ed swiftly in and seized the lad's feet. The boy backed him with the butt end of his gun, kicked at him, shouted his loudest, but the ratel gnawed away with the pertinacity of a bulldog. At every blow the creature's teeth closed like a vise. The boy seized his long tall, wrenched and twisted it, but the ratel would not quit his hold. The struggle lasted for a shorter time than it takes to tell it. The muscles of the lad's instep were cut through, and he tumbled backward not at full length, but against an ant hill. This circumstance probably saved his life, The ratel let go, as it .does when its victim drops, to spring upon the lad's throat and rip his stomach with its hind claws. But the plucky boy lifted himself upon his elbows and lay across the summit of the mound. That might only have prolouged the struggle, but his father ran up at the moment. The boy was many months In bed and many more on crutches. New York Press. Indian Summer. It Is related In history that when that stalwart band of pilgrim fathers settled in New England they knew lit tle of the climatic conditions of the new world. October came aud with it the first flurries of snow. Tbe frost nipped the woods, and the chill of the air foretold the coming of winter. "We will now have winter," It is fur ther related that one of the band re marked, and no doubt the worthy Bradford, Eudlcott and Wlnthrop nod ded their heads In approval. Continu ing, history tells us that the friendly Indians pointed to tbe skies and to the west and told the fathers that summer would come ngain before the winter. They were right. In the last days of October It grew warm again. Tbe nlr was filled with slanting sunshine. The world seemed wrapped In an atmos phere of sleepy warmth. The fathers looked upward aud remarked. "Lo, the Indians' summer." This may or may not have been the origin of the term. It is an expression, however, that is applied to a short season of pleasant weather which commonly occurs in the latter part of October or the early part of November. Memphis Commer cial-Appeal. "HANG THE PRISONERS!" An Exclamation That Was Put Into Ertact as an Order. The young Inird of Lochnow was a character in the Scotch camp life of the early eighteenth century. He was cool in action and full of fun In dally life. One day he was detailed to com mand a burial party, and as he strolled over the battlefield his orderly came to him in great perplexity. "Sir," said he, "there is a heap of fel lows lying out yonder who say they're only wounded, and they won't let us bury them like the rest. What shall we do?" "Bury them at once," replied young Agnew without moving n muscle of his countenance, "for if you take their word for it they won't be dead for a hundred years to come." The man saluted and started off In all simplicity to carry out the order. and Agnew tad to dispatch a counter order in haste to preveut his Joke from becoming a tragedy. This recalls an "o'er true" tale of border' life. Some Galloway moss troopers were brought before Sir Wil liam Howard, who was an enthusiastic mathematician. He was deep iu his stiidies when the . prisoners were marched into the castle courtyard, and a lieutenant came running up to get orders as to their disposal. Enraged at being interrupted, he cried. "Hung the prisoners!" and wont on with his work. Lie finished his problem and went down with a cheerful mind only to learn that his exclamation hud been tauen ror an order, ana tne prisoners were all hanged. A Moth Miller. "How long can a moth miller live without air and light?" is a question puzzling the bookworm. "1 opened nn old library book the other day." he said, "that had the appearance of hav ing been closed for a century, and on the very first page I found a moth miller. He lay lifeless for a few min utes, but pretty soon be began to wriggle. Now, ordinarily moth millers are my chief aversion. I lake a crue delight in killing them, but 1 could not kill that moth miller. 1 played the role of liberator instead, nis helpless ness touched me, and I blew on him, flicked him with my finger, and after awhile he was able to fly nway. Now what I would like to know Is, How long had that Insect been entombed? My curiosity carried me to the length of Inquiring when the book had been called for last, but the attendant In formed me thnt since the book was in the reference department It would be a prodigious Inbor to trace the latest reader. So how long the moth miller had suffered captivity is still a mys tery." -New York Times. Summons In the Circuit Court of the Stats of uregon, ior the Uounty of Clackamas.

Every one has heard of the theat rical property room the place where storied artificialities are laid carefully away to be ready for the call of the next emergency. But few persons know that every big store has its property room, too, and that Its won ders are even more entrancing than those of the funny cupboards "back stage." The shop's property room is filled with articles used for window display and special decorations, and, while the theatrical property Is largely Imita tion, the store's property is real. Rare old tapestries are laid away In the dim hidden chamber, to be used when occasion requires as back grounds for Paris hats id the Broad way or Fifth avenue windows, as draperies hung beside a choice collec tion of new hand bags or slippers or fans. Priceless vases from Italy. strange carved chests, wonderful screens all these lend enchantment to the background of the window dis play or bring a real intrinsic loveli ness to the salon wherein Is ahown- the season's newest millinery.

Tbe property room Is almost always in some queer, faraway corner of the store, a room badly lighted, well nigh Inaccessible. But It is full of treas ures. It calls back tbe atmosphere of medieval romance. It Is comparable only to an ancient English attic New York Times.
