(Continued on last pag-e.) Henry Watterson Lectures i On Abraham Lincoln. Maryland Games. The last base-ball games of the season on the home-grounds will be playedThursday and Friday against the University of Maryland team, which has the reputation of being one of the strongest college nines in the country. , The games no doubt will be hot ly contested and our boys are de termined to fight hard. Every stu dent should go to these games and cheer the 'Varsity on. Their rec ord this year has been excellent and we all must go out and show our continued confidence' in them. Students of the University and residents of Chapel Hill were af forded a rare treat last Tuesday night when Mr. Watterson lectured here. This was the last of a star course of lectures and the two liter ary society together with the Uni versity should be congratulated on the course offered by them to the public. Dr. Venable introduced the speak er and announced that Mr. Watter son would give his lecture on "Lin coln"; instead of "Money and Mor als" as had been expected. The personal characteristics of Lincoln were portrayed in a strik ing and vivid way. His thin face, angular form, coarse black hair and plain clothes were the outward marks of distinction, nor should we forget his kindliness of heart and his keen sense of humor; these were apparent and added a charm to the personality of the man. The men who were leaders at the beginning of the great strike were pictured their characteristics de scribed. Webster had tried to prevent a conflict, Clay attempted a compro mise, but to no avail. The issues must be settled. "They were mor al forces that would down at no man's bidding. The middle ground began to narrow. Slowly the forc es of freedom aprroached those of chivalry, and those between were crushed or absorbed by one side or the other." Politics too became clouded but at this time one man appeared in the North. The early life and strug gles of Lincoln were traced up to the point where he took the lead in the North. Lincoln had been un consciously training for the presi dency all his life. He was a born commander and his simple honesty and candor were traits which few men possess. Many incidents were cited to ver ify these statements. Mr. Watterson then asserted that Lincoln was a friend of the South who was the.only one possessing the power of saving it from itself. It was most emphatically declar ed in speaking of the famous con ference at fortress Monroe that Lincoln was prepared to make there :i proposition looking to remunera tion of the South for the slaves about to be freed. No opportunity was given him to make such an of- er. According to Mr. Sterm's account of the conference, Mr. Lincoln stat ed that he would be willinr to be taxed to remunerate the Southern people for their slaves. He thought there was a areneral sentiment throughout the Nortli to this effect. incoln stood for the restoration of of the Union, nothing ele. Lincoln was a far-seeing, broad- minded statesman, true to his con viction and to himself a great man, a typical American. In closing Mr. Watterson summed up in a masterly way the life of Lincoln. Common sense, he said, was the secret of Lincoln's power. Lincoln, like Shakespeare or Mozart or Burns was inspired of God. Although he had in his youth scarcely no opportunities yet when in his manhood, the time of trial came, other statesman were rele gated to the rear by this masterful man. James Sprunt Monograph. This publication by the Universi ty is of more than common interest. It consists of four parts. 1st, the Congressional Career of Nathaniel Macon, by Mr. Edwin M. Wilson, A. B., 1891. This informs us of the votes and speeches of Mr. Ma con in his long service in both branches of Congress. Secondly, more than twenty letters by him, mainly during the administrations of Monroe and J. Q. Adams. They give fully the constitutional and pol itical views of the writer. Thirdly, a long !etter by Willie P. Mangum, written soon after he entered Con gress, very iateresting and instruc tive. Fourthly, very copious notes by Dr. Kemp P. Battle, explaining the numerous allusions in the let ters to personal and political facts and measures. The attentive read er will from this monograph gather much information about the first decades of our history. Any one becoming a member of the North Carolina Historical So ciety and paying one dollar initia tion fee can obtain the volume. Princeton's spring football prac tice began a few days since.
