Anecdote of “Abe” Lincoln and
s-oriea Showing How Much Cam be
on a nd Lost Through Accurate
geniembrance— Recalling Faces With
out Placing Thom.
From the Chicago Herald.
g 3 ve you never met a person whom you
thought you knew, puzzled over the face as
udo over dreamß wondered where you
V i met, failed to recollect and equally
foUed to* dismiss the subject from your
‘‘ oli and so gone on for a day—wonder
puzzling, losing your temper, and at
last hitting upon the solution in the easiest
n auner, and found yourself surprised that
shou id have not occurred to you before I
* Yes' IVell, so have lots of other people.
It is the commonest and one of tho uupleas
test things in the world. Now and then
we find a man or woman who can recall at
hrst sight the name, station, and peculiari
ties of the man met; fix the exact circum
stances under which that meeting occurred,
no matter how long time may have elasped,
ad be able to say someone word which
shall link that remote or misty past to the
"resent But these persons are exceptions,
kev are like the darkey who stands
at the door of the hotel dining room and
takes your hat. He will cast one look
at you aa you turn awav and enter the
apartment devoted to the viands, and when
you come out he will fish from a pile of a
thousand your hat and hand it to yon with
out so much as a chance of error. But not
•very man—not even every colored man
can do it. There is a faculty not given to
all alike, and one which can never be ac
quired. ’so with the ability of recalling
when and where you mot the man or
woman who crosses your path on the street
and vanishes only to trouble you.
knew her, but could not place her.
Some very comical situations are the out
growth of this inability either to forget or
remember. A man was walking down the
ltree t with his friend. They were just
passing Blackall’s candy store when a
woman came out, looked at the first man,
a newspaper writer, bowed in a funny way,
and passed on. She had .looked at each
man, and neither recognized her, though
each supposed she was a friend of the other.
As they came to Clark street they were
turned aside by a crowd collected about the
patrol box. The policeman had a woman
'in charge. She was drunk, dirty
and obscene. She was waiting for
the wagon with the vile protest of
the utterly depraved. These two passed
on without pause or comment, but all the
time the newspaper man was wondering
who was the woman who had bowed to him
at the coffee store. The face was familiar,
but the picture presented by his mind was
of a woman in a gingham apron. There
were the same blue eyes, the same smile, the
same tilt of the nose—but an apron! vV here
had he seen her? He could neither toss the
matter out of his mind nor decide it. He
bent his head and walked on, puzzled be
yond expression. He would decide it.
Where had he seen her?
The other man was thinking of tne spec
tacle at the patrol box. He was a sympa
thetic fellow, and it grieved even more
than it shocked him. Suddenly the news
paper man stopped, struck his thigh, looked
back over the route they had come, and ex
claimed:
“By the Lord, that was my wife!’'
“Who—that woman at the patrol box?”
asked his friend.
“No, no; the one that came out of Black
all’s and bowed to us.’ ’
If this story seems too severe a tax on
credulity, the name of the newspaper m m
can be furnished, and both he and his wife
w ill testify to its truth. She declares she is
the safest woman in Chicago, as wherever
she may meet her husband he will not be
likely to recognize her.
LINCOLN’S MARVELOUS MEMORY.
Abraham Lincoln was perhaps the best
man in the country in his day to remember
men and to place them without hesitation
in the environment where ho last saw them.
He was first of all a politician, and the poli
tician who forge sis lost. When he was a
comparatively young man and a candidate
for the Illinois legislature he took dinner
with a Sangamon county farmer, and after
the meal they two stood at the barnyard
gate, talking and whittling. Lincoln’s
knife needed sharpening, and the yankee.
in him prompted him to sharpen it. He
walked to a toolbox the farmer had nailed
just inside the wagon shed, took from it a
whetstone and came back to the great gate,
where he stood again and began sharpening
his knife. One post of the gate was very
high, and a rod from tho top supported the
extended weight of the gate. A man came
along the road in a wagon, going in the di
rection Lincoln wanted to travel, and he
bade his boat good-by and clambered in the
vehicle—intent, no doubt, on getting
another vote.
Years afterward, when he was President,
a soldier came to call upon him at the white
house, and at the first sight the gaunt chief
executive said:
“Yes, I remember you. You used to live
on the Danville road. I took dinner with
you one day when I was running for the
legislature. Recollect we stood together
out at the barnyard gate, and I sharpened
my knife?’
jYa-as,” drawled the farmer soldier,
and wherever did you put that whetstone?
1 looked the whole place over a dozen times,
but I never could find it after the day you
used it. We ’lowed mebby you had took it
al iig with you.”
"N o ’"said Lincoln, looking serious, as if
the matter were as important as the recent
defeat of Pemberton, “no, I put it on top of
*hat gate post—the high one.”
“Well!” exclaimed the visitor, “mebby
you did. Couldn’t nobody else have put it
there, and none of us ever thought to look
there for it.”
He went on home, and when he got there
one of the first things he did was to climb
up on the gate and look for the whetstone,
it was there, right where it had lain for
nrteen years. Tne honest fellow, adoring
his chief, wrote a letter before his furlough
expired, telling the President the whetstone
was .ound and never would be lost again.
HAD A SMILE AND A MEMORY.
Sometimes a maa i3 better off, however,
or tne faculty of forgetting. One of the
uolesale houses in the city used to keep
°r collector a man who possessed the most
suable air imaginable. He would go into
“fooiirary store of a delinquent customer,
hake his hands cordially, lauzh, and tell
man excellent story, buy a cigar if there
any * or Kfl * e ’ ttn( i then hurry away
■th the promise to return again in a mo
wh In " T^en be did oome back he would
needle that rustic into a settlement more
avorable than the debtor ever thought ho
°uid be induced to give to any one—some
oißß the rest undoubtedly security; and
l. a be would go away while the glow of
“"joy merit still pervaded the face of the
victim.
, ? ae time he induced a man to shoulder a
S D1 which was by all rights the obligation
pother man. The collection was made,
j Utt “ e country merchant swore he would
®| that adjuster whenever and wherever
e found him. As he was a man who
ually kept hjg word in these matters, the
™ a ' e collector fully believed him. Two
j Mrs afterward he was walking abmt in a
e P°t waiting room, pending the arrival of
tra ' n > when he saw a man whom he
nought he ought to know. He could not
place him, but seemed to have in his
“lad the figure of a mau whose face was
stolid and forbidding, but which face
gradually melted into a grin of pleasure.
>' ho was he?
I know 1 have met him and told him a
" ,r y. and that he was pleased. But when?
i , re - Was it here in the city? No, he is
or low t countr y man - Was ic in Indiana
enm 6 c ° u!< l n °t tell, and so, as his train had
f t' he was quitting the depot with the
tend for who he had walked when he met
the countryman again, and came within an
ace o speaking to him ana recalling the
meeting i hat way. But as a successful man
ager, he disliked admitting that he had for
gotten one of the firm’s customers. Besides,
his fr.ead was with him. As they got into
a cab, however, he remembered ail about
it. This was the maa he had ove readied
and the man who had written to the house
saying he would lam the collector whenever
he found him. The collector looked back,
thanking his stars be had not renewed the
old acquaintance, wheu he saw tho country
man had been puzzled just as he had, but
had recovered au instant earlier and was
now in full chase after the cab. In another
moment be would be alongside, and then
be would make the buildings in tne vicinity
of the Polk street depot dance like a lot of
stars.
“Go on, there, driver,” urged the collec
tor, and they managel to outrun the flying
Nemesis before they had reached Van Burou
street.
TORTURED BY A SUDDEN IDENTIFICATION.
It may not be generally known, but it is
a fact nevertheless, that even the most re
spectable ranks of life are now and then
adorned by the presence of a man who has
served his term m the penitentiary. Those
persons are not criminals in the proper
sense of the word, but they have done
something some time for which they have
been for a season secluded from the troub
lous fear of the maddening crowd. They
have come out with the lesson learned—
supposing the incident to have been attrib
utable to their own wrong —and they have
gone forward thenceforth with a rectitude
that could not be questioned, aid have
lived and died honorable and honored.
Well, one of these men—and there are a
good many of them—had been in business
in Chicago for five years, after having
earned tho capital to set himself up in trade.
He was filling a career in every way credit
able. Every one spoke well of him, and no
one would have thought there was a dark
chapter in his life. Still, be never could
quite forget the picture of a man standing
just inside a large door, wearing a smile of
half welcome, yet not quite so pleasant as
a welcome, and taking from his side coat
pocket a memorandum book. It was a
picture he had brought from an eastern in
stitution of state patronage.
One day the manager of a house having a
capitalization of a million came to him on
business. They had met and traded often.
A matter that interested both of them wa3
to be discussed. As the big man came in,
he stood just inside the door for a moment,
smiling in half welcome, half business fra
ternity, and took a memorandum book
from his coat pocket. That picture! He
knew he had seen that man, and that he had
seen him in only one place, and for only one
minute. It was there!
He busied himself about his papers for a
moment, stooped to the floor to pick up a
pencil so that he might have au excuse for
the wave of color that surged up over his
face. He attended to the business in the
most embarrassed way. Ho made a bad
trade when he could have made a good one.
He lost money wheu he might have gained.
He was nervous, ashamed, afraid. He was
trading with the man who was at one time
the warden of the penitentiary where he
had served one terrible year. He had
seen that same man a hun lred times, had
traded with him, but had never seen him
just inside the door with that smile and
taking a book from his coat pocket. The
instant he saw him there he found all the
details of a terrible picture restored. But
the recognition was not mutual, and he
escaped.
LACK OF REMEMBRANCE COST HIM S3OO.
And sometimes a maa loses by this faculty
of remembering just enough to make him
wish he could forget. Dillon’s wife kept a
boarding house, and amoi.g the elegant
young people who lived there were Whar
ton and his wife. They were very nice peo
ple, and lived in the best of style. They had
the choice of the house in every particular,
and when it came to one particular guest
having a treat which was not sufficiently
voluminous to go around Wharton and his
wife were always the lucky ones. Dillon
went on with his work in literary fields,
delving away in the public library, writing
avrav at home, and wandering the streets
for material out of which to fashion some
thing in the shape of a marketable article.
Time went on, and Wharton tarried too
long at the wheat pit, and lost not only his
head but his fortune.
Ho was a well-intentioned fellow, but the
best of men cannot pay debts when there is
nothing with which to pay them. Ho it
came to pass that he owed Mrs. Dillon S3OO
and had not 300 cents with which to liqui
date. He had to leave the house, of course,
and the wife charged her husband to keep
an eye on the debtor ana try to find him in
funds some tims and so get part of the
money. Two years afterward Dillou wus
going along the street, when he met a man
coming from the Corn Exchange Bank with
a wad of money big enough to have satisfied
even the most rapacious.
Dillon was sure he had seen that man.
He was, moreover, sure he had seen him
with a woman, and he could recollect
euough of their conduct toward each other
to know that sha was his wife. He know
he bad done that man a favor, and that it
was in tne nature of a favor that should
have been extended to others, but which for
some reason was monopolized by this one.
But where and when he had seen him he did
m t know, and if he had not heard that
night of the violent death of Dillon
he probably would never have re
membered. But the man bad gone
from his old boarding house to a cheaper
one, had began again to watch the market,
and when he got ready he tried wheat
ag.?s:y The cereal was kinder to him, and
wheiner he bought or sold wheat, did a3 be
wanted and he made on every deal. He
finally Dulled out of the trade with a check
on the corn exchange that placed his win
ning at the five figure mark.
That night, while taking his wife to the
theater, for he must celebrate a little, he was
run over by a fire engine,and he never spoke
again. What became of the roll of money
no one ever knew, unless it was the wife.
But Dillon never collected his S3O0 —a
thing he could have done if he had asked
for it that day at the door of the bank.
A TANTALIZING NOTION.
If one could only disposse s himself of the
fancy that he remembered the person it
would be better than this tantalizing notion
that they should be recalled, and toe some
thing reallv important bangs on their re
calling. But the memory is just retentive
enough to hold the dimmest of impressions,
and yet it insists that you must keep on
puzzling your brain about the matter, prom
ising that it is quite worth your while, till
you have studied it all out and know that
there is, after all, no reason why it should
have beeu recollected at all. Those people
who have written books on the subject say
that the memory never loses an impression
it has once received. That the memory is
a sort of closet in which all sorts of objects
are hanging, and that the will sends in there
for a certain object, only dimly outlining
what is wanted, and trusting to the instinct,
the intelligence of memory, to get just the
thing wanted and no other. But in theca.se
of these people here written about the ob
ject brought back by the memory is not
quite what is wanted. It is like it in many
ways, it reminds one still stronger of the
thing wanted, and it keeps insisting that
the thing desired it certainly there and will
be brought out if you will only have pa
tience and tell a little more distinctly what
it i3 you want.
And at last the memory hits upon the
exact thing and brings it out, and tho mind
of the man recognizes it as the one thing he
wanted, though now that he sees it he may
not want it nearly so much as he tnougnt.

THE MORNING NEWS: WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 11, IS9I.
fROF. AJiSRY ARR2BIED.
Remarkable Story of a Watch That
Figured In the Civil War.
From the New York Sun.
Cleveland, 0., Feb. 5. —Prof. Elroy M.
Avery, Pb. D., author, educator, manager
of the local high tariff campaign in 1888, is
a handy man with bis fists upon occasion
and one of the two leading candidates for
postmaster of this city, was to-day arrested
for grand larceny on a warrant sworn out
by Henry C. Hpaulding, a merchant of
Dundee, Mich.
The warrant was issued by Justice Bau
der, and Avery at once gave bail for a
hearing on Saturday. The arflcle alleged
to have been stolen is named in the com
plaint as a gold watch of the value of $250.
The arrest of one of the bishops of this
city on a like charge would not have caused
a much greater sensatiou, as Avery stands
high in business and social circles.
Hpaulding will not talk much about the
matter, but to-night he explained that in
1865 he and Avery were both members of
the same regiment in the army; that he
bought the watch of a confederate for a
greenback consideration, with the full con
sent of the confederate, which was not al
ways deemed essential in those times; that
Avery and a companion came to Spauld
ing’s tent one evening, called him out,
thiew him down, and took the watch from
his pocket. Hpaulding says he made com
plaint to his captain, who advised doing
nothing till after they were mustered out,
which would be in a few months.
After their discharge he demanded the
watch at Monroe, Mien., and was knocked
down for bis pains. Two years later he
met Avery on a military excursion and
again demanded the watch, but Averv drew
his sword and threatened to cut Spaulding’s
head off.
After thinking the matter over for twenty
three years longer he concluded to come to
Cleveland and prosecute the case. The fact
that Avery is a candidate for postmaster
had notbiug whatever to do, he said, with
making the arrest at this time.
Prof. Avery’s story is much more explicit
and interesting. In April, 1865, Avery was
sergeant major and Spaulding a sergeant in
the Eleventh Michigan Cavalry .commanded
by Col. Brown, tuen engaged in the pursuit
of Jefferson Davis. At Athens, Ga., the
troops appropriated a large amount cf per
sonal property, including two horses and a
very valuable gold watch belonging to P.
H. Pond, the superintendent of a cotton
mill. Pond came into camp the next day,
proved to the satisfaction of Col. Brown
that he was from the north and loyal,
and received an order for the restitution of
his property. The carrying out of the order
was entrusted to Sergt. Maj. Avery. The
horses were found in Spaulding’s possession,
and he also owned up to the watch, which
he reluctantly returufed to Pond. The latter
sold the horses on the spot, and fearing the
watch would be taken away from him by
tibe somewhat lawless soldiers before he
could get home, he asked Avery to keep it
for him until the trouble was over. The
colonel consenting, he took Avery’s address,
which was Monroe, Mich.
Shortly after their return home Spauld
ing met Avery on the street one day and
demanded tho watch. A sharp altercation
ensued, which ended In Spaulding being
knocked down and pounded, for which
Avery was fined $1 by a magistrate. Avery
wrote to Pond, but receiving no reply kept
the watch, which he subsequently lost in a
ploughed field, and it was not recovered
until the works were ruined. Avery was
then paying attentions to a Miss Tilden, to
whose charms Spaulding was perhaps net
indifferent, and their engagement had been
announced. At this juncture Mr. Pond
unexpectedly turned up In quest of his
watch. Somebody had written to him that
Avery’s story of losing the watch was a
“fake,” and It had been seen at a watch
makers, where it had been left for repairs.
Toe same story had also been convoyed to
Miss Tilden, and she declared the match off.
Averv, getting Pond, Miss Tilden, and
the damaged watch together, proved the in
tegrity of his representations and got the
girl. Ia this he was helped along by the
discovery that Miss Tilden and Mr. Pond
were second cousins.
Avery and Spaulding both lived in Mon
roe until 1871, whon the former came to
this city. Spaulding shortly after engag
ing in the hardware business at Dundee.
Spaulding comes of a family that has
been eminent in Michigan politics and bus
iness affairs, and ha3 good business stand
ing.
CUTICTJKA REMEDIES.
SCRATCHED 28 YEARS.
A Scaly, Itching, Skin Disease with Endlew
Suffering Cured by Cutlrurm Remedies.
If I had known of the Cuticitra Remedies
twenty-eight years ago It would have saved
me S2OO and an immense amount of suffering.
My disease (Psoriasis) commenced on my bead
in a spot not larger than a cent It spread
§ rapidly all over my body and
got under my nails. The
scales would drop off of me
all the time, an a my suffer
ing wus endless, and without
relief. One thousand dollars
would not tempt me to have
this disease over again. I
am a poor man, but fee! rioh
to be relieved of what some
of the doctors said was lep
leprosy, some ring worm,
psoriasis, etc. I cannot praiso
the Ccticura Remedies too
much. They have made my
skin as clear and free from scales as a baby's.
All I used of them was $3 worth. If you had
been here and said you would have cured me
for $iW you would have had the money. I
looked like the picture iKo. 2, page 47, in your
book, “How to Cure Finn Diseases”), but now
lam as clear as any person ever was. Through
force of habit I rub my hands over my arms
and legs to scratch once in awhile, but to no
purpose. I am all well. I scratched twenty
eight years, and ft got to be a kind of second
nature to me. I thank you a thousand times.
