A very few ladies who obtained an
Imperial Pattern Outfit from The
News-Times for 68 cents and six
coupons neglected to read the instruc-
tions how to transfer the designs to

them by the old hot iron method.
This they should not have done, as
the Imperial patterns are to be laid
on the fabric, brushed over with cold
water, then after a sheet of dry

Wary Woodrow.

Woodrow Wilson, president-elect,
is probably one OF the most cautious
presidents-elect the United States
has ever possessed, as far as the
making of premature statements to
newspaper correspondents is con-
eerned. Ever since 1t became known
that The New Jersey governor had
been chosen chief eXecutiv of the
nation, the correspondents have been
trying to, obtain, soule. sofk of an
admission from him concerning the
probably personnel of his cabinet
and in each and every instance the
aforesaid correspondents have been
disappointed.
Il don't like to make scattered ma
nouneements, il the latest explain
alton given by Gov, Wilson for his
reluctance in discussing his plans.
And it may be that | will not an
nounce the cabinet until the last
minute. Sometimes | hear some
thing about man whom | have not
considered that makes me prick up
my ears and want to know about
him. The field of choice is con
stantIy widening"
President-elect Wilson gives every
evidence of being a very wise states
man. He does not intend to COM
nit himself 10 anyone and it viii
take clever newspaper eorrespon-
dent to learn his plans. The lass the
governor has to say to the news
papefs, the less he win have to ex-
plain later. One OF President Taft's
greatest faults probably was the free
dom with which ne talked ia the
presence of newspaper men.

story of how John Wilkes Booth, as
sassin of Abraham Lincoln. met hi

Henry w. Grady (deeeased). O

public the true story of Booth
escape, his wanderings and how h
Ireally came to his death. This stor,
created decided sensation over tn

This search set at rest all dout-
that had previously existed an
proved that John Wilkes Booth he

gross stupidity.
That there exists doubt that tn
Enid embalmed corpse is the body o
Booth. there is no question.
Relative to this doubt a Bulletir
representative interviewed Roger S
Dixon. clerk OF the Colonial hote'
Saturday evening.
Mr.. Dixon has seen the embalme6
body at Enid, as he lived there fol

Mr. Dixon said that those VIII

Those who sustain the affirmatirt

assert with some show of reason thai
the government gave out the story o.
the shooting OF Booth merely to ap.

They claim that those who were
