One of the features of the free show
department in connection with the car

Mat Gay. He dives 100 feet into a tank
of water four feet deep.
The first night of the carnival was
featured by the swell dance given at
Armory hall by the militia boys.
Wright's excellent orchestra furnished
the music on this occasion.
Matt Gays high dive is the greatest
feature of the carnival and is causing
more attention than any other attrac-
ton, unless it is the man who guesses

One of the prettiest exhibitions is
the illuminated bicycle ride in mil air

ODD INCIDENT
In ''CABINS'
The Home in Which Lincoln Was
Born Tangled With a Jefferson
Davis Structure.
They Were Stored in Cellar in
New York and the Movers
Mixed the Timber.

New York, March 2S.-By an odd Incl
dent, the cabin in which Abraham Lincoln
was born and another cabin of logs which
was associated with the life Of Jefferson
Davis, have become mixed up, and tim
bers of both structures now make up a
single building. The revelation Of this
fact came about through the efforts of the
Rev. DR.. Hills, pastor of Plymouth
church. to add to the Beecher memorial
fund.
DR.. Hills and those associated with him
in the Beecher memorial movement made
arrangements for Lincoln evening" in
Plymouth church tomorrow night, and
Benjamin Chaplin, the student and imper-
senator Of Lincoln, was engaged to tell the
story of Lincoln's lite from the platform.
In order that there might be an added
touch of realism to the entertainment, it
was decided to obtain for the evening the
little log cabin in which Lincoln was born
and have it. set up in the church parlor.
The cabin Is the one which was on exhi-
bition at the n-American exposition at
Buffalo. s.,
The owners Of the cabin declared they
would be glad to lend it if it were all the
Lincoln cabin; but they said that, as a
matter Of fact, the structure, which l.; at
present on Coney Island, is a cornbina-
ton of the hut in which the great ernan-
cipator was born and the Davis caoin.
The original Lincoln cabin, said one Of
the owners, has been purchased by a res
taurant man from a colored preacher
named Bingham, at Nolin Creek, Larue
county, Kentucky. He loaned it for ex-
l1ibition purposes to the managers Of the
Nashville exhibition and afterward stored
it in the cellar Of a, small restaurant on
the Bowery. In the same cellar was
stored a, log cabin connected with some
historical incidents in the life Of the pres
ident of the confederacy. When they
were brought out the movers mixed the
timbers. It is hoped to straighten them

MRS. -RURDICk'S VIEWS
They VIII Come Out at the Inquest Late
To-day.


Buffalo, March 23.-Although she was
not in Buffalo the night her husband was
killed, Mrs. Burdick late to-day may tes-
tify fully as to the details of his domestic
life up to the time Of her exile. The pur-
pose of Pencils visits to her and Burdick
may prove fruitful field for questioning.
She may be led to the question whether
she agrees with Charles S. Park, who
branded Pencil as a murderer. The
letter in which Pencil spoke OF his desire
to kill Burdick will be in the district at
torneys hands when he begins to ques-
ton Mrs. Burdick.
The authorities are in possession of mi
mute details regarding the whereabouts
of Pennell before and after the murder.
It is known that he saw Mrs. Burd1ck IN
Atlantic City three days before the muir
der. He was in Buffalo again on Wednes-
day, Feb. 25 1t was OH the night of
THURSDAY, Feb. 26, that Burdick was
killed. On Friday, according to the story
told to the authorities by Pencil before
his death, he and his wife visited Niagara
Falls. He first visited the automobile
factory at the city line. While at the
factory Pencil said he called UP Mrs.
Pencil on the telephone. He explained
that Mrs Pennell for some days had been
urging him to take her to the falls to see
the Icy scenery and had spoken to him
about it the day before, on his return
from the east. He told her to take Nj
agara Falls car and he would join her
there. He said this was about o'clock
on Friday afternoon, or a few minutes
earlier. He said he went on down to the
falls and that his wife came and brought
the papers with her and that he read in
the PAPERS Of the murder of Burdick.
They stayed at the falls until evening
He and his wife returned from the falls
and late that evening the detectives called
at his home and questioned him, and he
gave them the foregoing account of his
movements - :,
No arrest. it is generally conceded, will
take place at the close of the inquest
The authorities may see fit to present the
case to the grand jury. but this is consid.
cred improbable in view of the lack q
material evidence in hand.

Buffalo, N. Y, March 23.-The inquest
into the death of Edwin l.. BurdiclS will
be resumed by District Attorney Coats
worth and Police Justice Murphy at 2
o'clock this afternoon. Interest centers
upon the appearance and the testimony of
the widow of the murdered man. 1t. has
been stated by her lawyer. that she will be
a frank witness and will do all in her
power to aid the authorities.
Other witnesses will be Lizzie Romance,
the domestic in the Pencil household,
the man who took care of the Pennell
furnace; George c. Miller, attorney in
whose office Pencil. and Burdick had
their last meeting, and Alfred Brookman,
who took care Of the Burdick furnace.
Whether Miller will divulge anything. of
interest is regarded doubtful, as he may
hold it as unprofessional to repeat any
conversation that he might have had with
Burdick during legal consultation.

RESIAURADOR IS SEIZED
The English Claim That She Has
Been Committing Acts of
Piracy.

Port of Spain, Trinidad, March 23.--The
British cruiser Pallas has seized the Ven
ezuelan warship Restaurador on the
ground that she is a pirate. The case
against the Restaurador is that soon after
she was handed over to the Venezuelan
authorities by the German commodore,
she began again acts of piracy and rob-
berry on the high seas It is charged that
she seized cargoes of vessels and then
dismantled and abandoned the craft. A
Port Of Spain newspaper says editorially
of the Restauradors course: ''Such pir-
atical acts prove the unwisdom Of the gem
crosby Of the allied powers" The paper
expresses the hope that retributive justice
will be swifter and more effective than
on the last occasion. The Restaurador
was formerly the American yacht Atlanta.
She was built for Jay Gould.

REASONS WHY
CASTRO QUIT
Serious Conditions Have Resulted IN

tional Entanglements.
Unrest and Instability Seems to
Foreshadow a General Change
49,. of Government.

Paris. March 23.-An official dispatch
has been received here from Caracas CIV
ing the causes which led up to President
Castro's resignation. 1t shows that this
action was not mere formality, as some
of the dispatches indicated, but was the
outgrowth of serious conditions caused by
the recent international entanglements.
The dispatch says the main cause of the
presidents resignation was the troubles
with Germany, which, besides being diff
llicult of solution have caused widespread
alarm. The situation, it is added, has
been further complicated by the activity
of the revolutionary bands. This dispatch
clearly conveys the impression that the
resignation of General Castro is Indicative
of the present condition of unrest and in
stability in Venezuela, probably foreshad-
owing general change Of government.
