Booths Message Scratched on Glass.

On Aug. 10, 1864, John Wilkes Booth

Ing, aftor Booth had left the hotel and
city, an inscription was discovered
scratched in large hand on one of the
window pnnes, ABE Lincoln departed
this life Aug. 10, 1864, by tho effects OF
poison" Little attention was pnid to the
writing on tho glass at the time, but as
soon as 1t was learned that Booth had
killed the president the circumstances CON
nected with thu window inscription were
recalled, the glass was removed from its
sash, framed In plain black wooden

at Its back to facilitate reading and the
signature of Booth entered on the register
on Aug. 10 was cut from the book and at
tached to the window glass. The original

When one considers that 50 much of o

tard it by teaching it that it is not right

break, paper tear and heat burn? One
mother who believes she has the right
method has surrounded her babies in their

British officer seen in the center of tho

When tho British troops advanced on
tho redoubt for the second time Small,
with other officers, was in tho lead, en-
couraging his men, They had advanced
nearly to tho breastwork, when yolIey
was poured In upon them which was terri

and when Small looked around not an Of
flcer was left standing He glanced at the
Americans, md, seeing several muskets
leveled directly at him, gave himself up
for lost. At this moment General Put

and, striking up with his sword the mug
