FIRST STORY OF THE TRAGEDY
Original Issue of New York Herald
Containing Account of Lin
coln'a Assassination.

Mrs. Lena Hanson, 240S Burt street, is
the proud possessor OF one Of the original
copies of the New York Herald, telling Of
the assassination of President Lincoln.
She treasures the paper highly, for. al
though tae-similes OF the paper have been
printed, there are very few of the original
issues in existence.
Mrs. Hanson found the paper in an old
book among her husbands possessions.
The lead story contains the telegram from
Edwin NJ. Stanton. secretary OF war, TO
Major Dix at New York. telling him Of
the assassination. The edition was printed
after the death OF President Lincoln at
7l2, the morning OF April Is, 1855. The
regular price OF the Herald at hat time
was 10 cents, II was fun of news OF the
war, nearly all of the news being that of
the progress of the war. The extra was
issued at $40 a. m.
A few years ago in Kansas City there
was al old-time printer. still working at
the cases. who was on the Herald and
helped to ''set up" this very edition. He
said the Herald. in its anxiety TO get a
scoop ON the story, pinned a dollar bill 10
every take" Of copy. hung on the hook
and the more takes a printer set the
more dollars he got. The takes were cut
up very short as an additional facility.
There were fast printers in that shop

saw type thrown together as fast in my
life As We boys stuck It on that story"

Japan's University for Women.

Japan now has a university for women.
1t was founded about eight years ago by
DR.. Jinzo Earuse, who is its president.
1t has been aided by the emperor and EN-
press and by many of the leading men of
Japan. The empress gave 1000 yen toward
1t at the time OF its opening and many
public men are contributing to its support.
This institution has now 1900 students and
there are about 800 in its dormitories. /
have spent the greater part of today going
through II. Situated on the outskirts of
Toxic, It has from fifteen to twenty acres
of beautiful grounds. Its main buildings
are of foreign style. Some are Of brick and
some are frame. They run around a
campus filled with magnificent trees and
have a fine outlook over hill and hollow.
The institution has about 700 aIumnae
already. although the first class was gradu-
ated only six years ago. The first building
1 entered was the alumnae hall. The
alumnae call themselves the Cherry and
Maple club. They are organized and they
are doing a great deal to further the uni
versity. They publish a college newspaper,
known as the Home Weekly. which deals
altogether with college subjects and school
news. They run a store, whore the girls

needles to candy, perfumery and soap,
and where are sold stationery, books and
other school supplies. They have organized
a bank, where the students deposit their
money, all buying in the store being done
with bank tickets, WHICH may be secured
from the cashier next door. The bank
does a business OF about 500 yen per day,
Many Of the alumni were carrying on
postgraduate work, Among other things
l was shown a diagram gotten up to dis
prove the statement that education is a
bar to matrimony. The diagram by
means of red lines exhibited the percent
age of students who have married since
their graduation. From 1t / see that all

years ago nave entered into the bonds

of the graduates of each class since then
ave done likewise. l doubt II any grad
uating class of Vassar, Wellesley, Smith

ton has a dairy, gardens, a chicken yard
and a cake-making establishment. 1t run
a grocery store, and in all of these in
s~titutions 1t employs the students, who.
TO a large extent, earn their way through
school.

In the normal schools the curriculum Is

In the SchoOIrOOms.

The classrooms are not unlike those of
the United States, with desks and chairs,
save that all the chairs are cushioned with
green. We visit one class and listen TO a
lecture on physics. About fifty girls are
taking notes In japanese script, and they
hardly look up as we enter. We go to the
laboratories, where they are studying chem
istry, and on into music rooms, In some of
which are taught foreign playing and sing
ing, and in others the music of Japan. In
the latter the girls play upon the goto, a
sort OF horizontal harp or guitar which
rests on a low bench. The instrument is
about five feet long, a foot wide and 1t has
a half dozen or more catgut strings. In an
other room we hear the girls reciting Eng
lish, and in another see them studying
French under a Japanese major, who
learned the language in Paris. Every pupil
Is required to study either French or Eng
lish, and the professor tells us that most
of them choose the latter. He says that
the school has three divisions known as the
primary, middle and graduate sections. The
girls enter the primary school at the age
of s and remain there until II. During this
time they are required to study four or five
hours a day, and Saturday from three to
four hours. The middle section requires
five years, and after graduating there the
students may enter the graduate section,
which is a sort of master-of-arts depart
ment, and which has a term of three years.
In this department there are courses in
Japanese literature and art as we'll as In
the several sciences and languages. Most
girls graduate at about 20, but only about
one-half of those who enter remain for
graduation. So far the school has had
mora than 1000 graduates.
