Cabin Logs Taken to Hodgenville —— Cabin of the Great Commoner's Birth j Reconstructed In Memorial Hall. The logs of the Lincoln cabin, which bad been stored in a Louisville, (Ky.,) warehouse for nearly lour , years, were taken to Hodgenville, where they were again erected into ! a structure like the original in which , Abraham Lincoln waa born. Tho cabin was reconstructed inside the j memorill hall on the Lincoln farm, | near Hodgenville, Ky., where It will | prooably remain for ages. The logs : were taken to Hodgenville under the care and direction of T. W. Miller, superintendent of the Lincoln farm. The logs had been in Louisville since the Kentucky home-coming, which took place Hi 1906. They were brought from New York by a special repre sentative sent from Louisville, and played a prominent part in the exer cises during the home-coming week. The cabin as reconstructed stands in the center of Lincoln Memorial Hall, and will no doubt be the center of at traction for Americans who revere the name of Lincoln so long as tho Republic laata. —Louisville Courier Journal. 11^ Born In Kentucky, 1809. Died in Washington, 1865. Of ail Americans one of the bifr gest, broadest, brainiest and bravest was' Abraham Lincoln, whose birth day we commemorate. An example for the old, a guiding star for the yeuMg, he lived and died tor- his co««try. "With malice toward none, with charity for all." CURED OF PROFANITY. "A. Lincoln" Endorsed on a Note liw sored Its Payment. The following story is told of Presi dent Lincoln; One afternoon as ho was walMng through I-afayette square, Washington, he noticed a young mM who was using sulphurous language in a manner calculated to alarm the natives. Mr. Lincoln stop ped the young man and asked what the trouble was. Not knowing Mr. Lincoln, the young fellow said that a btankety-blank clerk in the Treas ury Department had had him trotting there for months to collect a small note and he couldn't get a blankety blank cent ont of him. "That la pretty bad," said Mr. Lin coln, "hut I'U teN you what I will do. If yon wM promise me to give up us ing profane words, I will guarantee to collect the note for you." After a little further talk tho proposition was agreed to. The young mas produced the note and handed It to Mr. Lincoln, who wrote on tho back, "A. Lincoln." When it was given back to the collector and his eyes fell en the name he unconscious ly mumbled, "Well, I'll be d d," then quickly apologized to the Presi dent, who shook his hand, cautioned him to remember the compact, and then resumed his afternoon stroll. It is needless to say that the note was promptly liquidated when next presented. Epigrams by Lincoln. Lot none falter who thinks he la right. If slavery is not wrong, then noth ing la wrong. Come what will, I will keep my faith with friend find foe. All that I am, aft that I hope to bo, I owe to my angel mother. This country, with its institutions, belongs to the people who inhabit it. For thirty years I have been a temperance man, and I atn too old to change. This government must be preserved In spit* of tho acts of any man or many men. / Slavery la founded In the selfish ness of man's nature; opposition to It, In his love of Justice. If I live, this accursed system of robbery and shame in our treatment 0# the Indiana shall be reformed. In law it is good policy never to pload what you need not, last you" oblige yourself to prove what you can not. Understanding tho spirit of our in stitutions to ate at tho elevation -of men, I am oppoaod to whatever t« ids te toss** torn ; Lincoln's Own Story 1 Pvrnlshed for Publication During Contest with Douglas in 1858. This Is the brief sketch of Lin* coin's life which he furnished for publication when he was pitted against Stephen A. Douglas for Sensr tor In Illinois in 1858. It runs as fol lows: "I was born in February 12, 1809, In Hardin county, Ky. My parent* were both born in Virginia of undis tinguished families —-second families perhaps I should say. My mother, who died in my tenth year, was of a family of*the name of Hanks, some of whom now reside in Adams, and others in Macon county. 111. My pa ternal grandfather, Abraham Lincoln, emigrated from Rockingham county, Va., to Kentucky about 1781 or 1872, where, a year or two later, he was killed by Indians, not in battle, but by stealth, when he was laboring to open a farm in the -forest. His ancestors, who were Quakers, went to Virginia from Berks county, Pa. An effort to Identify them with the New England family of the same name ended in nothing more definite than a similar ity of Christian names in both fami lies, such as Enoch, Levi, Mordecal, Solomon, Abraham and the like. "My father at the death of hla father was but 6 years of age, and ho grew up literally without education. He removed from Kentucky to what is now Spencer county, Ind., in my eighth year. We reached our new home about the time the State came into the Union. It was a wild region, with many bears and other game ani mals still in the woods. There I grew up. There were some schools, so called, but no qualification was ever required for a teacher beyond read in", writln' and ripherin' to the rule of three. If a straggler supposed to understand Latin happened to so journ in the neighborhood he wu looked upon as a wizard. There waa absolutely nothing to excite ambition for education. "Of course when I came of age I did not know much. Still, somehow, I could read, write and cipher to tho rule of three; but that was all. I have not been to school since. Tho little advance 1 now have upon thla store of education I have picked up from time to time under the pres sure of necessity. "I was raised to farm work, which I continued till 1 was 22. At 21 I came to Illinois and passed the first year In Macon county. Then I got to New Salem, at that time in Sangamon, now Menard county, where I remained a year as a sort of clerk in a store. Then came the Black Hawk War, and 1 was elected a captain of volunteers, a success which gave me more pleae ure than any I have had since. 1 went through the campaign, was elat ed, ran for the Legislature the same year (1832), and was beaten- the only time 1 have ever been beaten by tho people. The next and three succeed ing biennial elections I was elected to the Legislature. I was not a candi date Afterward. During this legisla tive period I had studied law, and re moved to Springfield to practice It. "In 1846 I was once elected to tho lower house of Congress. Was not a candidate for re-election. From 1841 to 1854, both Inclusive, practiced law more assiduously than ever before. Always a Whig in politics and gen erally on the Whig electoral ticket, making active canvasses. I was 100- Ing interest in politics when the re peal of the Missouri compromise aroused me again. What I have done since then is pretty well known. "If any personal description of mo is thought desirable, it may be said I am in height six feet four inches nearly, lean in flesh, weighing on an average 180 pounds; dark complexion, with coarse black hair and gray eyes. No other marks or brands recollected. Tours very truly, A. LINCOLN." This was written a couple of yeara before he ran the first time for Presi dent. "The rest," as the phraae Is, "la history." Lincoln's Indiana Heme. Lincoln. Ho knew to bide his time, And can his fame abide. Still patient in his simple faith sufe lime. Till the wise years decide. Qreat captains, with their guns and drums, Disturb our Judgment for the hour, But at last silence comes; These all are Bone, and, standing Ilk* a tower-.
