NEW NEWS ZS OF YESTERDAY eZ Governor Consulted Enemy How Horatio Seymour, When Demo- cratic Candidate, Sought and Ob- tained the Advice of Ellis Rob- erts, a Leader of Republicans. Horatio Seymour, governor of New York state in 1852 and again in 1862, and Democratic candidate for presi- dent in 1868, when he received only 80 electoral votes to 214 for General Grant, was a far more adroit politician than a great many of his contempora- ries suspected I know of no better evidence of his political tact and skill than is revealed in an incident that was connected with his candidacy for governor in 1862. For nearly a quarter of a century it had been Governor Seymour's practise to open his campaigns with speech which he had written out very carefully and, with equal care, com- mitted to memory. As soon as he had secured the Democratic nomination in 1882, he set about preparing the speech that would sound the keynote of the campaign. He realized that he faced a very delicate situation. It was the second year of the Civil war. The state's great war governor, E. D. 'Morgan, was going to Washington as a senator. It seemed vital that Mr. Lincoln should be supported by his party in New York state, and Mr. Sey- mour was not a member of that party. On the ether hand, In his campaigns he had always been able to gain the 'support of a considerable number of Republicans, and one of the delicate matters he now had to face was how, In his speech, he could give no offense to either the war Democrats or those who were not in sympathy with the Union cause, and at the same time not estrange his large personal Repub- lican following, eager, of course, for the war's prosecution. In all his active political career, which stretched over a period of more than a gerferation, Horatio Seymour never worked harder than he did over the speech with which he planned to open the gubernatorial campaign of 1862. He wrote and rewrote, then threw everything away and began all over again, revision followed revision, and at lost, In this laborious manner, he produced a manuscript that, it Seemed to him, would do the trick. Yet, be was not quite sure, and while the doubt was upon him he determin- ed on a bold fnove—he would take his speech and confer over it with none other than one of his keenest political opponents—Ellis H. Roberts, editor, in Utica, of the leading Republican or- gan of Central New York. For years Mr. Roberts, who, after- wards, was treasurer of the United States under Presidents McKinley and Roosevelt, and Horatio Seymour had been personal friends. It was nothing unusual for the two men to be seen In each other's company; and Mr. Roberta was not at all astonished when Mr. Seymour entered his office. But what was Mr. Robert's frame of mind when Mr. Seymour divulged the nature of his visit can be easily imag- ined, for Mr. Roberts was plainly ask- ed to read the speech and suggest any revisions that occurred to him that especially would prevent Republicans with Seymour leanings from desert- ing their old favorite in this his latest hour of need. For two or three hours the two men were in confidential conference, and before them was spread the manu- script of the Seymour speech. Just what suggestions Mr. Roberts made regarding that speech cannot be said: It is known, however, that on his ad- vice, certain paragraphs were struck out altogether, while other portions of the speech were considerably re vised; and after Governor Seymour ; had delivered the speech, following its revision by Mr. Roberts, it was found that be had handled with great skill. as • Democrat, the questions arising out of the Civil war, so as to offend none of the three bodies of voters he had perforce to bear in mind. And what's more, it was a triumph that ultimately led to his election_ Years later, Governor Seymour found the way to repay his debt to Mr. Roberts. A firm of publishers bent on Issuing a history of the states, with a volume to a state, asked the governor to write the volume on New York state. He declined on the ground thaat his years were too many, and recommended Ellis H. Roberts as the one man who could do the subject full justice. And his recommendation of Mr. Roberts was so hearty and sincere that the publishers engaged the latter for the task. (Copyright 1910, by E. .1. Edward& Si] Rights Reserved.) Relic of Old Saybrook Colony How Railroad Builders Found Tress of Brown Hair, All That Was Left of the Beautiful and Ten- der Lady Brooke. For the student of things colonial, the little town of Saybrook, which lies near the Mouth of the Connecticut river, holds a peculiar charm. For one thing, It was founded as an independ- ent colony in 1639, to be ceded six years later to the colony of Connecti- cut in return to its promoters for the proceeds from certain taxes for a pe- riod of ten years. For another thing. Saybrook was the original home of Yale college. Then, too, it was to help found Saybrook that Oliver Cromwell planned to leave England for the new world, only to be detained at home at the last minute. But to me the most interesting story I have ever heard of Saybrook relates to Lady • Version of Civil War Incident General Buckner's Account of General Grant's Generous Offer of Money to Him After Fort Doneison Had Surrendered. In his personal memoirs General Grant refers briefly to the fact that after Fort Donelson had surrendered to him he offered to share his pocket- book with his defeated foe, Gen. Simon Bolivar Buckner. At a time when he was north on a lecturing tour, the late Gen. John B. Gordon, who commanded one wing of Lee's army at Appomat- tox, described to me In greater de- tail this incident, just as he had re- ceived the story from the lips of Gen- eral Buckner himself. \General Buckner,\ said the distin- guished Georgian, \was a little an- noyed at the very peremptory commu- nication sent to him by General Grant, in which the latter demanded uncon- ditional surrender. He realized that Grant had him hemmed in and at his mercy, yet Buckner looked upon the terms as harsh, and the manner in which the terms were expressed as harsher still. But the irritation was only temporary. Following the sur- render, as Buckner was approaching Grant's headquarters, the latter saw him first and went out and met him more than half way. That was enough tor Buckner. It told him that his old schoolmate at West Point was still his personal friend, though his mili- tary enemy. Straightway his heart was softened toward his conqueror, and, dropping all formality, the two conversed as of old. \For quite a little while, General Buckner told me, he and Grant recall- ed old times and old friends. Then Grant quietly drew Buckner aside, so that there would be no listener or witness to what might follow. \'General said Grant, 'you have been shut up here for some time; you couldn't have been very liberally sup- plied with money; you must be in need of some funds for personal ex- penses.' Here Grant thrust a hand Into a poci.et, drew out his wallet and opened it. 'I am not very plentifully supplied with funds myself,' he added. 'but I shall be very glad to have you share elth me what I have.' And he extended the opened wallet towards his enemy. \Buckner was so touched by this unexpected courtesy and act of deli- cate consideration that for a moment or two he did not reply, because he could not, and he had to turn his head away to hide his feelInge But, et lest, having conquered the lump In his throat, he confessee to Grant that he hadn't a cent and that he would he very glad to avail himself of his old schoolmate's offer. So he took from the wallet what he thought would he sufficient to meet his needs for the time being, and from that day until General Grant's death there was no more devoted admirer of Grant than Simon Bolivar Buckner.\ Some time after hearing this story from General Gordon, I repeated it to Gen. Frederick D Grant. \Yes said the son of the great gen- eral, \General Gordon's account of the incident is substantially correct. I know that the warmest friendship was then established betwe , n General Buckner and my father. You may re- member that General Buckner came from his home in Kentucky to New York expressly to attend my father's funeral, that tie might pay his last re- spects to his conqueror. But such lit- tle courtesies and kindnesses as that you speak of were constantly shown to one another by the generals who were engaged on opposite sides in the Civil war. At Apomattox, when father first met General Lee to draw up the terms of surrender, they chat- ted for some little time about experi- ences In war and old friends. It was then that father said to Lee that, while he presumed General Lee would not recollect him in the Mexican war, since he was only a lieutenant at the time, nevertheless he—my father—of course had a vivid recollection of Colo- nel Lee. And It pleased father greatly to have General Lee say Instantly_in reply: \ 'Oh, yes. General Grant. I remem- ber you very well.'\ (Copyright, icon, by E .1 Edwards All Rights lienerved ) Cement Through a Hose. Encasing a tunnel lining with grout- ing from a flexible hose has been suc- cessfully tried on a Swiss railway A mixture of 162 pounds of Portland ce- ment to nine gallons of water was used in a cylindrical vessel holding about 80 gallons, the cement being kept stirred by a hand revolved paddle. and compressed air at about 78 pounds per square inch was admitted to the cylinder through a pipe enter- ing the top. The lining being per- forated with seven to nine holes, the water back of It was forced out by a strong blast of air. The cement mix- ture was then forced through the hose into these holes by the air pressure In the cylinder, and on hardening made the lining quite watertight How Harding Eats Waffles.

Eaten that way wallies never hurt anybody.\ Brooke, a daughter of one of the two titled Englishmen who backed the founding of the colony. It was told to me in the summer of 1878, when the little town was holding a celebrie tion commemorating its founding; and my informant was the late Thomas C. Acton, who became *fa- Mous during the Civil war as the New York chief of pollee who put down the draft riots; who for years after the war was en assistant treasurer of the United States, and who was born in Saybrook a* maintained a country home there \14 -greater part of hs i ra rit \Lady Brooke, I believe, was the first woman of the English nobility to come with a group of colonists to this part of New England,\ said Mr. Acton. \and alas, it was a sad day for her when she set sail from old England. She had been brought up in luxury, she had been sheltered from the storm and stress of the world. The min- ute she came in contact with the new world she was placed face,,to face with a rough and strange mode of life. She was too tender of body and of spirit to accustom herself to the new conditions; she was among the first of the little band to fall a vlo tim to the various Illnesses that BOOB broke out among it, and not long there after she was laid at rest in the lit tie cemetery that was almost coincl dent with the founding of the colony itself. \So much by way of preface. Now, some years ago there was organized a company to build • railroad from Hart- ford, the state capital, to Saybrooh Point, just below the town, where the Connecticut empties into long Island sound. One day a surveying corps ar rived In Saybrook, and after it had fin- ished its work we discovered that the line of the road had been laid directly through the long unused colonial cem- etery, and, what was more startlins still, immediately over the grave that had come down to us as that of the last resting place of the beautiful and gentle Lady Firooke. \Immediately there spread through the town a feeling that it would be a sacrilege for railroad trains to rue over the grave of Lady grooke, so if was decided to open the grave, and, if there remained aught of relics of the titled colonist, to collect and reintet them, and place over their new resting place a suitable monument. That was the plan, though really none of us had any strong belief that we would be called upon to conduct a reburial. For considerably more than 200 years Lady Brooke had been dead, and sure- ly, in that time, mute have returned to dust completely. \Yet the grave was opened and rev- erently tile soil was upturned. At coffin depth there appeared absolutely nothing that could be identified, even In the faintset manner, as belonging to coffin, shroud or body. We were turning to go when, suddenly, a - slight discoloration of the soil was discov- ered. With great care we had the workmen remove the soil. Then we examined it ---and what do you suppose we discovered? A beautiful brown tress, in as perfect condition as though It had been placed In that spot the day before. It was all that was left of the beautiful and tender Lady Brooke \There Was not a man there who was not deeply stirred as he stood in the presence of that imperishable relic. Tenderly we placed it In a suit- able receptacle and directed that it be deposited permanently in Hartford. And I have never ceased to have a deep cease of satisfaction in the thought that I was among the number who kept that beautiful tress that once crowned Lady Brooke's head from remaining forever buried beneath the roadbed of a railroad.
