80 Years of Age atnd Tells
a Queer Tale.
Tho 30y Fmlnahed Kisham's Englrsh Gram
mar It Two and Murray's in Wear
Weeha-Blroke Elm of ]etting,
There is a remarkable old man vielting
here from his Illinois home, writes a Dallas
(Texas) oorrespondent of the New York
Bun. His name is William Graham Green
and he is 80 yearn old. He has had a
earious life, and he is proud of the foot
that he is the first man who taught Abra
ham Lincoln the principles of English
grammar.
"I taught Abe Lincoln all he ever knew
about grammar," he says, "and a mighty
smart pupil he was, too."
Mr. Green's story of how he came to do
this, and how he did it, is as follows:
"My father moved over to Menard
county, Illinois, in 1820, and I have been
living in that state over slnce. I went to
'the Illinois college in Jacksonville to get a
business education, and I made a specialty
of grammar. In 1880 I went to work as a
clerk in the store of Denton Orfutt in New
Salem, Menard county. There I first met
Abe Lincoln. He had helped Otnatt take
his flatboat on a trading expedition down
the Sangamon river. They ran aground on
the dam at Salem and Ofntt set up his store
there with the goods from this boat. This
was in 1881. Lincoln was 22 years old at
that time, but he was six feet four inches
tall, and one of the strongest men I ever
saw. Lincoln had steered the boat for
Offutt, and, I reckon, he had run her
aground. I got $8 a month in the store
and Lincoln got $10 a month. He and I
slept on a single mattress on the counter,
and it was so narrow we had to sleep spoon
fashion. When he turned over I did, too.
One night he said to me:
"'Bill, haven't you an English grammar
you could lend to me?'
"I told him that I had a Kirkham's gram
"'Bring it to me wOen you 59 fumev u
Bunday.'
"He used to read it at night after the
store shut up, and when he had read for a
while I would bear him recite his lessons.
He went through the grammar in two
weeks, and then, at his request, I got him
another grammar-Lindley Murray's, I
think it was-and he went through that
one in the same way. In six weeks he knew
five times as much about grammar as I did.
"Lincoln did something else for me while
we were in that store together-he broke
me of betting. There used to be a fellow
named Enoch Eastep, who would come in
there and spend a lot of time loafing
around. He was a betting, trifling kind of
a man, and had a lot of tricks he was al
ways betting on. He had a trick of doub
ling up his hand in some way so as to hide
his middle finger. Then he would bet you
that you couldn't mark his middle finger
with apen. I lost some nickels betting
with him, and one day Abe Lincoln said
to me:
"'Billy, you ought to know better than to
bet on anything, but especially than to bet
with a man on his own tricks. Yon ought
"to'B t Abe, he's got ninety cents the best
of me,' I said. 'If I could get that back I
would be willing to quit.'
"'Will you promise me that you'll never
bet any more If I manage it so that you can
get 'way ahead of him with one bet?" said
Lincoln.'
"'Yes,' said I, 'but I hate to quit a loser.'
"'Billy,' said Lincoln, 'you are getting to
an age when you're beginning to think a
good deal about the girls. Wouldn't you
like to have a plug hat to wear when you go
calling on them?'
"'Yes, I would,' I said, 'but they cost $7
apiece, and that is more than I can aford
to pay.'
"o'Well,' said Lincoln, 'when Enoch
comes in here again and wants to bet with
you on his tricks, you just say that you
don't care to bet on such trifling things with
him, but that you will bet that Abe can
take a forty-gallon barel of whisky off the
floor and take a dram from the bunghole.
You say that you'll bet him a plug hat on
•it.'
"'But can you do it?'" I asked.
" 'You wait until after the store closes
to-night and 1'11 show you,' said Abe.
"So that night he took a barrel of whisky
and chimed it up a little on his left knee
and then tilted it on his right knee and
kind of bent ba., and I pulled the bung
out of the hole and he took a dram sure
enough, and spurted it right out again on
the floor. The next day I won the plnu hat
from Enoch, as Abe had said I would. I
have kept my word ever since, and I've
never bet on anything. And, what's more,
I wouldn't for $1,000.
"Lincoln left the store after a while and
went to work hauling logs to the sawmill
for William Kirkpatrick. Kirkpatrick had
eight or ten other men working for him,
and he paid them each $10 a month. Lin
coin drove an ox team and, had a boy to
help him, One day Lincoln told Kirkpat
rick that he wanted to get a cant-hook to
help him load the logs on the wagon. He
said that a caut-holk would only cost $5,
but Kirkpatrick said: 'Now, Lincoln, it
you'll manage to haul the logs without the
cant-hook 'll give youea 3 a month extra.
Lincoln said that he would do it, but at the
end of the month he got only $10, instead
of $13. When he asked for the other $3,
Kirkpatrick said: 'Abe, I can't pay you
$3 exira.' 'But you promised to do it,' said
Abe.' yee, Iknow,' said Kirkpatrick. 'but
the other men would raise-- if I paid you
more than they were getting, so I can't
do it.' Lincoln quit work for Kirkpatrick
then.
"The next year, in 1832, Black Hawk
eame back into Illinois with the Sacs and
Foxes, and militia companies were raised to
go and light them. All theyoung men went
into the Black Hawk war, and Lincoln and
I were among them. Major Mose. K.
Anderson came to form the companies and
get them into shape. Now, Kirkpatriob
was very anxious to be elected captain of
our company, and so was Abe Lincoln.
Mpajor Anderson got us all together and
then he called out:
"'You aspirants for the captaincy walk
twenty paces to the front and face the line.'
Kirkpatrick and Lincoln stepped out and
faced about.
" 'Now,' said the major, 'the rest of yor
fall in alongside of the man you want fom
your captain!'
"I was the first to run to Lincoln's side
and I stood at his right. Kirkpatrick's
men formed on his left. After a whil
when all had chosen, there were two lons
lines, one to the right of Lincoln and ons
to the left of Kirkpatrick. Then we sav
that Lincoln had beaten Kirkpatrick two t.
one and he had seven over to spare. I'll neve
forget how when Abe saw how things ha(
gone, the old fellow put his big, horny hans
on my shoulder, and I could feel him al
trembling with delight as he laid:
"'Bill, I'll be -- if I hain't beat him!
that was the first time that I ever hears
Abe swear, and I know he must have beer
powerfully exelted to do it."

Things Worth Rememberisg.
That it is dangerous to stand near a tall
tree or spire during a thunder storm; that
the southwest corner of the cellar is the
"eyclone safety point;" that there is no
medicine so universally appliable to esick
ness as fresh air and sunshine; that blowing
out the gas, before retiring is funny-to
everybody except the ran who tries it;
that you may swear as hard as you please,
but it will not remove grease spots; that the
Wisconsin Central is the most popular
route to Milwaukee, Chicago, and points
east and south. For tickets, etc., apply to
ony ticket agent.
