Why Lincoln was Shot.
Gen. Agnus, publisher of the Bal
timore American, received the fol
lowing communication a few days
| ago from a physician residing a few
| miles from that city:
Dear Genebal—Think it not
; strange that I say that I believe
I Booth, killed Mr. Lincoln for fail-
i ing.to keep a solemn promise to
; Booth. Thus it appears that Booth
! had a dear friend in the army who
i was condemned to be shot. Booth
] went to the President and iinpor-
i tuned him to pardon his friend. Lin
coln yielded and promised the con
demned soldier’s life Booth fell on
| his knees and bathed Lincoln’s hand
| with his tears and kissed them, and
i left with the assurance that his
! friends life would be spared. The
j next evening word was brought io
! Borth that his friend was shot to
! death.Booth became wild with rage
and avowed vengeance, and the
| time came as lie had planned. Two !
| nights before the deed Booth slept
: with Andrew Jackson King, at
Mrs. Bowers’ boardingrhouse (King
is the clerk to Mayor Latrobe).
Booth’s visits to Mrs. Surratts were
merely social. Politics were not
touched upon. Brick Pomeroy
knows much of this, and more than
I can tell you. My wife lived with
her mother at the time that Booth
visited at the house, and she says
that King knows more than he will
tell, also Mr. Sid Adams. If you
wish, you can try what there is in
this to make people wonder over
another mystery greater than that
of “The Breadwinners.” Respect
fully, .
The lady was right, says the
American when she said “Andrew
Jackson King knows more than he
will tell.” To a reporter he said he
would say nothing on the subject,
but afterwards partly acknowl
edged the truth of the assertions
made in the letter, but said that it
was two weeks before the deed
was committed that he slept with
Booth at Mrs. Bowers’ at Washing
ton. Of what he spoke to Booth, or
what Booth said to him when the
pair were tucked under the bed
cover, Mr. A. J. King would say
naught. He states that the soldier
in question for whom Booth had
plead, and who* was killed, was
named Beale. Mr. King, who was
shown the letter by a reporter, ask
ed the loan of it, to show it to Mr.
Sid Adams, who is at the post office.
When he returned Mr. King stated
that Mr. Adams had said that “it’s
a lie.”
A well known citizen having an
office on Calvert street stated that
lie had learned from a relative who
was in the army at the time lie
knew from personal knowledge that
it was on account of the execution
of Beale that Booth killed Lincoln-
There are some persons who are in
clined to believe this story. But
people generally have made up
their minds that the assassination
of Lincoln was due to political rea
sons.

In this country public^roacls are
yet in their infancy. In Europe
Spain has the worst highways, and
they were in a bad condition in all
countries a century and a half ago.
It was not always so. After the de
cline of Roman civilization but lit
tle attention was paid to highways
anywhere for hundreds of years.
Rome’s roadways were.the best that
the world had ever seen. They
were wide, level and hard. They
extended from the borders of
Wales to the banks of the Eu
phrates, from the Rhine to the At
las " Mountains. Tiberius Nero
onec started from Lyons and drove
northward 200 miles in 24 hours.
Such speed could only have been
made on a fine road with numer
ous rehays-of-fast horses. 'Besides
her great military roads Rome
built a net-work of cross roads lead
ing to the villages. In England it
is estimated that the Romans built
2,500 miles of paved roads. All of
the old empires noted for their
lower and civilization had good
roads. The Persians had highways
along which tke king’s couriers
rode at a speed of from 75 to
miles a day. When a country'* re
trogrades in civilization and com
merce its roads are always neglec
ted. Railroads have greatly sim
plified the problem of maintaining
highways, but the matter stills de
mands the attention of states and
statesmen.—Atlanta Constitution.
ing from their historical associa
tion.
Stone mountain is composed of a
fine, light colored granite. In some
places where exposed to the action
of sun and water it has become
striped, having the appearance of
pieces of bright carpeting hanging
over the precipice. Scattered over
the mountain are boulders, some of
immense size and worn by water in
to curioUs forms.
The Greeks of old would assign
its format Ion to some god or goddess
and surround it with fascinating
myths. We moderns would rather
revently ascribe it to the one Crea
tor while curiously studying the
means He chose to employ.
No grasses grow on this mountain
but its absence is supplied by red
dish moss found only in high alti
tudes. Occasionally a stunted cedar
appears, presenting a peculiar ap
pearance. Not only is the trunk
itself twisted by the force of the
wind, but each branch shows an un
equal conflict with unseen forces.
At the foot of the mountain axalias
afford a wealth of bloom in their
season. At least seven shades ap
pear, varying from white to deep
red. A yellow variety also abounds.
These, with a belt of woodland, fur
nish a setting worthy the beauty of
this jewel.
Stone mountain has given its
name to a village about a mile
away where dwellers in heated
cities may sometimes breathe pure
air. In looking upon so much of
beauty and grandeur they may find
rest for mind and soul, that rest
which an intimate acquaitance with
nature always brings.—Cottage

Advice to Office Seekers.
The number of men who will con
clude that they have a special fit
ness for the post-offices, the consu
lar posts, the custom houses and
internal revenue service will no
doubt surprise even the commit
tees that know them so well. Per
sons who are accustomed to go
through the world earning their
daily bread by their daily toil will
wonder at the sudden development
of a talent for transacting the pub
lic business. Men who have failed
in everything they have undertak
en, and who have had neither the
industry nor the prudence to do
anything for themselves, will be
found pushing themselves to the
front with more energy than they
ever showed before, each more anx
ious than the other to conduct the
business of the government.

a long one, because the bark was
slightly grazed high up, and, about
three inches above the mark left by
the muzzle, there was a slight mark
made by the ramrod, showing that
it projected three inches. The man
wore a grey woolen coat, because
where he leaned against the tree
little particles of grey threads had
•been caught by the bark. There was
the place where the little dog sat
on his haunches his stump tail left
a mark in the yielding soil. The
murderer was short, because, when
he reloaded jus.gun,be set the butt

he left coming and going showed
he was white, because he turned his
toes out, Indians never did. The
trail also showed that the one
coming to the tree was older than
the one going away from it—hence
the murderer had waited for him.

Among the commercial travel
ers who visit Kentucky may be seen
a fine looking gentleman with a
gripsack. He, sells cigars and is
very popular, having friends and
customers in every town. This
cherry old drummer is ex-Gover-
nor Bishop, of Ohio. Not many
years ago he was a millionaire and
the gutiewior of-a^reat state. Re
verses in business hurled him down
from lifs lofty pedestal, but as he
had never abused his power and
never manifested any vulgar pride
of wealth, his misfortunes excited
genuine regret, and his manly in
dependence in bucking down to
work is admired by everybody.
Some men would have thought it a
tremendous sacrifice of dignity to
leave a millionaire’s palace and a
governor’s mansion to trot about
ov£r- the"country selling cigars, but
Governor Bishop is a sensible man
and he considers it his duty to earn
an honest living. Broken down
politicians' who are too proud to
work, but not proud enough to re

gentleman an example worth fol
lowing.—Atlanta Constitution.
A writer of some experience in
farming says: A farm can be stock
ed with sheep for less money than
with cattle, horses or hogs. Sheep
will come nearer utilizing every
thing that grows on the farm than
any other animal. Less labor will
be required for getting feed and
stock together. The returns will
come in sooner and oftener than
any other farm-stock, except hogs*
Less money is required for shelter
ing and fencing and less labor is in
volved in herding, where, outside
persons would only look about them pasturage is accessible, and prefer
red. And finally a handsome in
come on the investment can be had
without the sale of animals them
selves.
correspondent called on Mrs

a mosjt entertaining conversation

despatch which stated that . her
sister, Mrs. Hoyt who was with the
Governor in Albany,’ would prob-

“There is ntrtrrrth tn the tlfcspatch,”
she said. “Nothing has been set

leave Albany.”
“Who will have charge of the
White House, then ? Your broth
er is not going to follow I>an Mam
niug’s example and get married ?”
“Oh, no; that is not at all likely.
I think iny sister Elizabeth will at
tend to the hospitalities of the
White House. She is unmarried,
can leave her home, and onght to
be with Grover.”
“She is accomplished ?”
“Yes, indeed. She is now engag
ed in delivering historical lectures
to educational institutions, so yon
see she is certainly well informed.
Our father gave us all the best ed
ucation in his power.”
“Is your sister sdciallv inclined'
No; none of us are. We had to
attend to our books, and had no
time for society, when we wTre
young.”
“How many sisters have you ?”
“Four—three of them are mar
ried, but one is a missionary in Cey
lon. All have families except
Elizabeth.”
“Perhaps you may live at the
White House yourself?”
“That is possible, although I have
a family of three girls, and it would
be difficult for me to leave. T shall
go to Washington to attend the in
auguration of my brother, and will
remain several months until every
thing is settled at the White House
under rny direction. As I said before
everything is too undecided as yet
as to what be done,but I think Eliz
abeth wilfbe placed in charge of
my brother’s household affairs.”

We are reliably informed that

it was the b^st production ot the

Mississippi Senator commented, in

pressed his admiration in unmeas-

If a public man in Washington is
not killed by office seekers, he can
not hope to escape death in the
shape of convivial dinners. The di-
tctic habits of our great men ar^
worth studying. Henry Clay ate
iargeiy, his favorite food being
broiled oysters and baked pump
kins, with buttered watermelon for
desert. Calhoun had a weakness
for opossum and baked sweet pota
toes, even bread, chicken and cof
fee. Benton always took a large
drink of whisky before his meals,
and was very fond of fried bacon
and molasses. Harrison liked cab
bage, pickled pork, roast pork, peas,
cucumbers, sweet potatoes and
corn meal fritters. Over eating
killed him. Jefferson Davis, while
living in Washington, ate very lit
tle. Half a cup of tea and a slice of
toast for breakfast, a little soup and
a few mouthfuls of meat and a
glass of wine at dinner, have been
his average for nearly fifty years
Andrew Johnson had a fine appe-.
tite, and drank a great deal of wa
ter and milk. He did not drink as
much liquor as is generally suppos
ed. General Grant likes a fine din
ner and does full justice to it. While
president he drank no liquor except
brandy. He now abstains from
strong drink entirely. G'onkling’s
greatest weakness is soft boiled
eggs. -Congressman Belford, of Col
orado, was the most enormous eat
er in the last house. He ate four
regular meals and three luncheons
a day, and was always hungry.

Snmmbrbutter, as usual, is yield
ing but a small margin of profit*
The Wise dairyman has lessened
his production daring this period
of low prices and has arranged to
have his c6ws calve in the fall and
winter so that he can make an even
supply from October to May—the
period of highest prices. The sum
mer glut 1 in the butter market wil[
not be obviated until this practice
is more generally adopted. Win
ter dairying comes in a season when
other work is not pressing and adds
immensely to the amount and qual
ity of the manure made. Summer
butter has to be made in the busi
est season of the whole year, sells
at the lowest prices, and the ma
nure prodnet in summer is compar-
ilively poor in quaiityrant! small in
quantity. We.belfeve figures will
show that the seemingly smaller
cost af smnmer production does not
