A MILITARY GENIUS.

With no knowledge of military STRAIT
egy he developed out If his own study
a cleverness of perception and a COM
mon sense view of the needs of the
army which made his litters models
of strategic suggestion
In the outset. Mr.. Lincoln encoun-
tered the difficulties that fall to the lot
of any responsible head of govern
ment, difficulties which are intensified
by the greatness of the issues at hand,
but which all have the same character
istics when they arise from the over
zeal of moral reformers. Those who
wished slavery abolished felt toward
Mr.. Lincoln greater degree of hatred
and contempt during the two years Of
his administration than even the reb-
els themselves. Brooking no delay. ac-
cepting every excuse as a mere pre-
text, they pounced upon Mr.. Lincoln
with emphatic denunciation and bitter
attack, but he knew better than they
what was necessary before he took the
step of emancipation they were sup
pressing.
No man in public life was ever so
much abused by his friends as Lin
coin. The contrast between his posi-
tion in history and the description of
him by his friendly critics during the
civil war can hardly be credited.

SUSPECT WOMAN OF
KILLING HUSBAND
Chicago Police Unearth An
other Mystery in Death
of John M. Quinn.

CHICAGO, Nov. 9.-Discovery that
Mrs. John M. Quinn's first husband,
Warren Thorpe, had been shot to
death, supposedly by a burglar, in the
same manner as Quinn had been kill
ed. led the police today to believe
that they had in custody slayer of
husbands. who may have left behind
her trail of death
Quinn was shot while in bed at 4
O'Clock in his home at 1850 Michigan
avenue. Mrs. Quinn declared she had
awakened just in time to see a mask
ed burglar fire the fatal bullet into
her husbands body.
Announcement by the physician,
who examined the dead mans body
that the bullet had come from a revol-
yer held less than eight inches from
the body and the discovery of 80
calibre revolver, containing an ex-
ploded shell, hidden in the bathroom
of the Quinn home, led the police to
doubt Mrs. Quinn's story. She was
taken into custody as suspect
When examined she admitted having
been married twice, but failed to tell
the police of her marriage to the 9TH
err. They finally uncovered her life as
Mrs. Thorpe in Jackson, Mich, and
there learned from the police that the
death of her first husband was almost
identical with that of Quinn. Mrs.
Quinn-the Mrs. Thorpe.-was held
by the Jackson police for several
weeks, but unable to obtain any evil
dence against her, she was released.
Shortly before Thorpe's death his
mother died under mysterious cir
cumstances.
The police also found son of
Thorpe. who always believed the wo-
man knew more about his fathers
death than she had told. He will ar
rive in Chicago today to confront the
suspected woman.

have positive knowledge that Bessie
Kent had dental work done in at least
five other places after Dr. Thomas did
work for her, so his identification of
his work would be almost impossible
None of the dead girls supposed

DR.. Webster is awaiting trial in the

bravery which the rebels showed in
