Birds Increase DURING War.

Wild birds which were formerly
shot as game have been increasing
rapidly since the war in France. Bel
gium and other countries, according
TO T. Gilbert Pearson, secretary OF the
National Association OF Audubon So
cieties.
For example, the French govern
ment has stopped all hunting he
said. "and the minister OF war has is
sued an order that the sale of native
game would not be tolerated. Ordi-
narily more than one thousand tons
OF native-killed game are sold annual
ly in the markets of France, repre-
senting many millions OF game birds.
Belgium in time of peace was one
OF the greatest bird-catching countries
in Europe. More than fifty thousand
skylarks, as well as hundreds Of thou
sands of other birds, were annually
trapped and exported from that coun-
try for food. Our correspondents
have found that there was less hunt
Ing in all parts of Europe than for

TRAGEDY THAT
SHOCKED WORLD

Abraham Lincoln by
Wilkes Booth.

bered as One Of the Saddest Days
In American History-How

dent Met His Death.

~ N April IA, 1861, the Unior
flag was hauled down al
Fort Sumter, and the wal
became a fact. On April IA
1865, the man who had been the
head of the Union during the struggle
was shot by an assassin. The world
today realizes the tragedy OF his as
sassination, but not so well the shock
II caused at the time. The shock was
the greater because 1t came without
warning.
On the afternoon of April IA. 1865.
President Lincoln, accompanied by his
wife, went for long drive AS recre-
alton he had planned that night to see
the famous actress, Laura Keene, In
Our American Cousin" which was be-
ing played In what was then Ford 3
theater on Tenth street northwest, be-
tween e and F streets.
General Grants Narrow Escape.
General Grant was to have been
one of the theater party, and the fact
that he was Unexpectedly called away
probably saved his life, as there is
no doubt that his murder was also
contemplated.
The presidents box had been draped
with two flags, a silk one borrowed
from the treasury department being
placed in the center. 1t was in this
that Booths spur caught when he
leaped from the box after shooting
II m m
a rocking chair for the use OF the
president. At $3.50 Mr.. Lincoln, Major
Rathbone and Miss Harris entered the
box to witness play OF which they
were destined never to see the end.
AS the president sat quietly in his
box for an hour and half, John
Wilkes Booth, the assassin, was how
ering near, waiting for a favorable
opportunity to fire the fatal shot.
Booth was a handsome, gay, romantic
young actor Of the famous family Of
actors. Edwin Booth was his brother
ard Junius Brutus Booth his father.
Ardent Southern SympathIzer.
Young Wilkes Booth-he was COM
monty called by his middle name
was an ardent Southern sympathizer,
and his frequent visits to Washington
brought him In contact with people
of similar sentiments, and gave him
the opportunity to put into effect the
plan which he imagined would be that
of a patriot
For some months he had been liv-
ing In Washington, where he had dis
cussed plans with band OF conspira-
tors. These plans at first looked to

HIS BRAVE ACT APPRECIATED
German Sailors Quick in Recognition
Of Gallant Deed Performed by
Enemy Of Nation.

An interesting war story that Is
current in England Is told by the
New York Sun: The Caucasian, an
English merchantmen, was chased by
German submarine. The steering
gear OF the vessel was destroyed by
shot from the submarine, and she had
to stop. Captain Robinson, her skip
per. gave a little Pomeranian dog,
seven months old, to his second officer
to put into the boat, but in passing the
dog down, one OF the men let it fall
into the water.
When the captain entered the boat
he saw the dog swimming toward the
submarine. Without hesitation he
Jumped overheard and swan almost q
quarter Of mile before he could over
take his little pet. On reaching him.
he placed him on his shoulders, and
as the submarine had by this time
drawn up to him, he laid hold OF her
in order to regain his breath.
The commander OF the submarine,
in broken English, said to him: Il
was about to blow up your ship be-
cause you didn't stop. but l will not
do so for your brave act in saving the
little dog"
The captain swan back to the boat
with the dog resting on his shoulder.
For two days he feared that, owing to
the exposure, the little dog would not
recover: but it did get well at last.
The National Canine Defense league
has awarded medal to Captain Rob
inson for his humane action.
