OF the assassination he was standing

which was so constructed that only
a person standing ON the stage could
see what occurred in 1t. In addition

son was putting on short comedy
scene with Miss Keene. He saw
John Wilkes Booth appear suddenly

to the stage, drop of twelve feet
catching his spur in the single Amer

over the edge Of the box as he did so
When he reached the stage he had
suffered a compound fracture Of the
ankle, but with a knife in one hand
he rushed off the stage between Miss
keene and Mr.. Ferguson so quickly
that his hurt was scarcely noticeable.

Mr. Monahan, who gives the poultry
demonstration, together with the men
present in the forenoon, remodel a

the killing and picking demonstration
is not held until after dinner and feed,
care and management of the flock is
also taken up at this time. The kill
ing demonstration has not ceased to
arouse the greatest interest and each
interested person is given an oppor-
tunity to kill and pick.

ditions have changed since Robin

to popularity. yet those operas are still
held in the greatest esteem. The
Princess Pat" differs in many respects
from the earlier works of Mr. Herbert,
yet the same masterful manner Of this
celebrated Irish composer, to give to
the public spirited score with a sense
Of humor carries through in grateful
abundance. Every number, and there
are twenty of them in the score of
this latest Herbert success, wins en-
thusiasm. IT. is music that tells a

ator, has supplied a book and lyrics
that enables Mr.. Herbert to go the
