III., organized a memorial as sociation lor tne purpose or erect ing a monument to the martyred president and to perpetuate his memory by holding appropriate exercises at his tomb each year upon the anniversary of his death. Several - years after, the commit tee having the annual event In charge made arrangements for the proper, observance' of the, day. That morning', however, Just be fore the parade was to start from a given point a disagreement arose among the musicians that compris ed the band, as to the amount that they were to receive for services rendered. Try as they would, noth ing could be done by the commit tee to pacify the musicians in their determination to- walk out -of the procession, and they did. A col ored minstrel show was billed to play at the Springfield Opera house that night, and when their mana ger was apprised of the- circum stances that had deprived the par ade of a band.- he hastily, put the matter up to the members of his company, with the result that every one of them volunteered their- services. Not only that, but the com pany's quartet rendered several vocal selections at the tomb, all favorites of "Honest Abe during his lifetime. And they, as tbey afterwards told of tne incident, were only too sorry that they were not able in their humble way to do more for tne great humanitari an who had worked so hard and eventually gave his life' that ihe negro slave might become free men. Billy Kersands was the featured comedian with the company at the time of which we write, and was recognized as one of the best com edians of his race. A direct de scendant of his. "Jam-Up" Charley Tyler, is now, featured with the Arkansas Minstrels, an aggrega tion of colored artlses now holding sway in their large canvas theater with the Abner K.

Every Sunday in the summer time some of the four pigeon clubs here conduct races, varying from 18 to 768 miles. Last summer the races were started from eastern cities. This summer the birds will be taken to western cities to begin their homeward races. Several thousand birds have had practice flights" of five to fifty miles. A winner in a long flight is re garded by the pigeon lovers much as fhorsemen view the victor at a Kentucky Derby. Some of the pigeons develp a speed, as high as a mile a minute, and the average time ranges from forty to forty five miles an hour.

B. has been my gardner for over two years and that during that time he got more out of the garden than any man I ever employed." The train came to a stop at a small town in Mississippi, and the kinky head of a gentleman of color protruded from a window. Seated at his side could be seen a brown skinned maiden.
