up and Miss Cooley gave pHn'ed
talk on "How toorgsnize, classify aud
teach a country school," She was
followed by Mrs. Lewis, who advised
the teacher to attract thel pup l. not

cheerfulneSs and efficiency. She al o
suggested that too much machinery
resulted in too little go, and too much
program in too lit school.

answer. Miss r. sid: We'll. what

WAS WILKES BOOTH sHoT9

"There is now playing IN New York an
old-timer, perhaps 60 years of age, who has
history Of more than ordinary Interest,"
remarked theatrical man during q recent
visit to Washington. ~ was reminded of
him by visit to the old Fords Theatre
building. He was playing a comedy part
In "The American Cousinn on the night
that Lincoln was assassinated, and ever
since that time has acted like man who
had something on his mind. He was a
great friend of j. Wilkes Booth, and there
may be some startling developments II he
ever gives all that he knows or seems to
know to the public. 1t is only when he has
been drinking somewhat that he talks of
the matter. Then he puts his head be
tween his hands, leans forward and begins
talking to himself.
"'You don't know what ! know, he viii
say. Some time will tell II, but not yet.
II isn't time yet He then goes on to tell
In disconnected way how he was the man
who identified the man who was shot for j.
Wilkes Booth. III was only the boots he
mutters, that made me say 1t was Booth

The report that has been circulated from

seen alive has received but little credenee.
The man who was identified as Booth was,
II win be remembered, much mutilated, and
there were doubts expressed as TO the re-
cognition by any means decisive. The
veteran theatrical man has declared his In
tentlon OF writing history OF the affair to
be published after his death. II may be
that he is only suffering from morbid state
of mind, but 1t is very likely that his story
