disheartening information should get
into print. The portion Of the depart
ment building where this little episode
occurred was not far from Secretary
Stanton's room. cannot say what took
place at the ensuing conference, which
was private, as l left the department.
The news contained in the bogus dis
patch, however, was soon effectually
dispelled by the intelligence Of the fall
Of Vicksburg and the complete triumph
of the Union arms"
The story of Lincoln's last hours, as
told by the late DR.. Charles Sabin Taft
of Mount Vernon, recently published
in the New York World, has prompted
still another witness Of the martyr
presidents death to speak. He is one
of the two or three survivors among
the 81 persons present, according to
Millers sketch of 1.-THE Last Moments
of Lincoln"
The witness is Alex Williamson of
Brooklyn. Mr.. Williamson was the pri-
vate tutor in the presidents family
from Sept. 10. 1861, until the widow re-
moved in 1865 to Chicago.
The emancipator's last hours the
teacher thus describes: my son, Will
liam B. Williamson, was Stanton's
messenger. He had delivered at the
theater a message from Stanton for
Mr.. Lincoln. He rode his horse to nv
house in Fourteenth street and told me
Of the tragedy. 1 was preparing for
bed, but hurried into by clothes, partly
redressing in the street.
II told Robert Lincoln at the White
House that "a serious accident had
taken place. AS l was going down the
basement stairs toward the kitchen I
met Tad coming up with Messenger
Dunn. The boy was tongue tied.
'Papa's tot was his greeting.
The Gordon Of troops around the
house where Lincoln lay held me up
Notwithstanding l announced that l
was of the presidents household. Dep
uty Marshal Philips came to my res
cue. l found General Meigs On guard
at the door of the room. 1 sat on a
trunk at the foot of Lincoln's bed from
about II p. m. until 7:22 a. NJ, at about
which hour he died
Surgeon General Barnes kept stanch-
ing the blood. DR.. Stone felt the pulse
of the left hand and asked me to feel
the pulse Of the right ankle When
ever the pulse in the ankle became
weaker, reported to DR.. Stone, and so
my friend the president. Joined the
ages"

THE BUMP OF LOCALITY.
This Authority shys II Does Not Seen,
to lie strongly Developed
in Women.

Why is it that woman's bump of To-
cality is so much more feebly deEel-
oped than mans? Put man down on a
country road and the probabilities are
that he will find his way wherever he
wishes to go without having TO ask AT
nearby farmhouses for directions. IN
stinct seems to guide him. Put a wom-
an in the same position and she will
irretrievably lose herself in ten min
utes, and have to be sought for Ivy
resolute men for hours before she is
finally brought back to civilization,
says the Baltimore News.
Perhaps it is that the weaker sex is
unobseryant. Even in cities many Of
its members do not notice buildings
closely enough to permit them to End
their way about, and certainly they
would not notice in the country the big
gum tree that they pass here nor the
haw bush that marks the intersection
of two roads there.
With the sun low in the west there
are numbers of women who can't tell
the points of the compass, and II they
could would not know in which dires-
tion their homes lay.
When il comes TO noting the details
of a costume few feminines fail to oh
serve even the tinieSt bit of braid or
the smallest bow, but trees and houses
are different and less interesting
things, and so in a strange town or ia
/ the woods the fair travellers lose them
selves in no time and have TO be res
cued and set again upon the path by
some one with better sense of roca
! tion than they can boast.

THE SETTING OF STANDARDS.
Delicate work Conducted by InPSr-

CharIOttcnburg, GermHny.

In Charlottenburg, village only a
half hours drive from the German
empcror'S palace i'm Berlin, is located
the reichsanstalt, the German inStitu-
tion for maintaining weights and
measures. The delicate experiments
performed in the reichsanstalt re-
quire buildings of great solidity, SO
the foundations are sunk so deep that
scarcely an earthquake could shake
them. And an equable temperature
is so important that there are sew
eral thicknesses of walls. The reich
sanstalt has existed - years. 1t is
endowed by the German government
and is without parallel in the matter
Of equipment, apparatus and expert
Investigators. says Pearson's Maga-
zine. The cost of the experimental
departments TO the government iS
$1s0,000 yearly Among the impOr-
tant instruments upon which the
reichsanstalt has set its seal of per-
fecton are physicians thermometers,
electric lamps, the exact strength of
one candle power (the standard can
die is now a minute electric lamp),
tuning forks, the measurements OF
all kinds OF electric currents and va
riety of delicate scales.
