their chance to stage q comeback
in territory that was theirs, but
where no living man ever has. seen

The 3o0-mile strip Of Mississippi

This promise was held out by

THE BOOTH DISCUSSION

DISCUSSION has again been revived on
~ the old controversy as to whether or not
John Wilkes Booth, the assassin Of Lin
coin, really was Killed by a detachment
of United States troops in Virginia
barn, shortly after the shooting Of Lin
coin occurred.
This discussion bobs up periodically,
with much To set the layman and tie
student OF history 10 wondering.
The present instance. involving mum
my which has been exhibited Tor years at
sideshoNS, as that Of the real Booth, Is
particularly interesting.
In the local library IS a volume, pre-
pared as a novel, but which the author
states is founded on much authentic data,
in which the same John St. Helen, the
name b. which the mummy was known,
is the central figure.
One car hardly read this book with
out feeling that the author has present
ed almost conclusive evidence that Booth
was not killed as history tells US, even
though the author does not state that ne
believes this to be the truth. Without
attempting to distort history, he proves
how easy it could have been tor Booth
to elude his pursuers and for them TO
take the life of another man in the be-
lief that it was Booth.
Those who now have the mummy in
their possession, m X the suggestion
that the body Of the supposed Booth be
eXhumed for comparison Of idenCifica-
ton marks which they claim the mummy
has. This could do no harm and might
do some good. 1t might prove that Booth
was not shot and again il might prove
that he was, thereby putting at rest for
all time, doubts that have prevailed IN
American minds as to the real fate OF
Lincoln's assassin.
History has given Us the shooting OF
Booth by Sergeant Boston" Corbett, as
authentic. History can be mistaken and
if a. opportunity IS presented to clear
up the mistake, ii might be we'll to accept
It.
Apparently the japanese definition Of
a bandit is any Chinese in Manchuria.

Because so many drivers cut
short of the tree and its base in

explained that a driver, at all
times. should go around q button
or sign in the middle of an inter
section, instead CT cutting across
it on the side from which he is
coming

showing that the button or center
Of the intersection should, at all

JUST 4 COP

THE all too frequently despised police
/ man again is indicated by one of his
fellow officers, who readily paid with ms
life in upbolding the law he had taken
an oath to support. even though there
was moi a binding obligation on him to
90 SO.
A Chicago detective, off duty and en-
ioyiug himself as is the right of any cit
zen. suddenly found himself one of a
number being held UP by group OF Chi
car0'S f2vorite brand of criminal, the
shotgun artists.
Only one Of a crowd Of several hun
dred, the detective could have done as
the others did-raise his hands and per-
mir the bandits to Go what they came to
ACCOMPLISH. None would have critiZed
him.
Instead. MS police training came to
the top and he opened fire, single hand
e. against superior numbers, better
armed and equally as well trained as he
was.
The detective was putting them to rout
when 4 final blast from their guns IN
iiicted wounds which caused his death.
Detective James j. Caplis was Just
cop. AS such many Would unhesltat-
ingly and unthinkingly brand him bull
", coward and worse. It Woald seem,
however, that he was mighty brave
man, man loyal to his oath and MS
duty.
His heroic act should be an inspiration
to every policeman i: the country and
should help to convince the doubling that
not ali policemen are what some Of us
think.
Evidently Hiram can never forgive
Herbert for 1920.
That bunch of promises that can be
discerned in the offing is young 1882
getting ready to do his stuff.

else to worry about with a group of ''tun-

surprise Of his own For, as he
stood locking at the tall ever
green, which Mr. Stubtail had
placed upright for him in a tub OF
sand, the rabbit gentleman saw
something moving in the top OF
the Christmas tree.
Whats that?" murmured Mr.
