The best exhibits of a priceless col- lection of relics of Abraham Lincoln, which is probably the beat of its kind In the world, have been loaned to the Lincoln' Jubilee celebration, now in progress tn the Coliseum. The owner of the collection is Charles F. Gunther, a cnicagoan, Who has spent fifty years in gathering Lincolnlaua. The idea of collecting relics of the martyred president came to Mr. Gun- ther with news of the president's death in Washington. The display at the Coliseum occupies the entire north end of the building, Which is divided into a number of booths. In one Of' them is the coach which Mrs. Lincoln once drove in the streets of Chicago, in another booth is the famous Appo- mattox table which stood in McLean's house In that village, and upon which Gen. Grant wrote out the terms of the surrender of Gen. Robert E. Lee. In this same booth are a number of chairs which were in the boxes of Ford's theater in Washington the night that Lincoln was shot. There Is on exhibition the bed upon which Lincoln died, together with some of the bed clothing bearing the dark stains of the president's blood. In his collection Mr. Gunther has the dress worn by Mrs.' Lincoln on the night of the assassination, together with some of the president's garments. There are many other things of less tragic Import In the collection. The grand piano used In the White House by the Lineolhs is there, as are the sofa, desk, and office chair which Lin-, coin used in his office in Springfield, 111., and the original Lovejoy printing press upon which the Liberator, the famous abolitionist newspaper, was printed.
