AIDED WILKES BOOTH
THOMAS JONES, THE MAN WHO
SHIELDED LINCOLN’S MURDERER. |
Kept Him In Hidiflg Six Days and Helped
Him to Reach Virginia—The Reward of
£300,000 COffered by the Government
Had Not the Power to Mowe Him.
There died in Charles county, Md.,
not long ago Thomas A, Jones, at the
age of 74. Jones held a position in
Washington navy yard, but was
missed through the influence of
gressman Mudd of Maryland, wh
informed the secretary of the navy that
Jones had played a prominent part in
the escape of John Wilkes Booth, the
assassin of President Lincoln.
“It’s quite true,’’ admitted Jones it '
the time of his dismissal. ‘‘John Wilkes
Booth, with a broken ankle, sick and
suffering the tortures of the damned,
was placed in my hands to be spirited
across the river, and the $300,000 re
ward, or even 33',000,000, would not
have caused me to turn traitor to the
southern Confederacy, the people 1
loved, and surrender a man whose life
was in my keeping, even if I did know
he had assassinated President Lincoln.””
Jones afterward told how Booth came
into his hands. ‘‘lt was on the morning
of the 16th of April,’’ he said, ‘‘when
friends of Samuel Cox came to my
house on Huckleberry farm, Maryland,
and tcld me that Cox wanted to see me
at once. I had heard the evening before
that Lincoln had been killed. I had a
horse saddled and rode over to Cox’s,
who told me that Booth and David
Herold had been there and wanted as
sistance to, get across the river. I was
told where the men were—in a pine
thicket about a mile and a half from
the house.
“T was given instructions how to
reach them without being shot—certain
signs by whistling, etc. Upon reaching
the dense pines I met Herold, to whom
[ explained that I was sent by Cox. I
was then piloted to where Booth was.
He lay on the ground wrapped in a pile
of blankets, and his face bore traces of
pain. Booth asked many questions as to
what people thought of the assassina
tion. He appeared to be proud of what
he had done. lat the time thought he
had done a good act, but, great God, I
soon saw that it was the worst blow
ever struck for the south!
‘] did the best I could for the poor
fellow. I carried him papers toread and
something to eat and tried to keep him
in good spirits until I got a chance to
send him across the river. The country
was full of soldiers and detectives, and 1
did not know how soon I could get him
away.
1 think it was the following Tuesday
I went up to Port Tobacco to see how
the land lay, and it was there, in the
barroom of Brawner’s hotel, that Cap
tain William Williams, chief of the
United States secret service, said he
would give $300,000 to any man who
would tell where Booth was.”’
“That’s true,”’ admitted Captain
Williams at the time of the above inter
view, ‘‘and he'would have been General
Jones instead of a discharged employee
from the navy yard if he had given the ‘
information.”’ e o
I did the best I counld for Booth and
Herold,’’ continued Jones. “1 did not
know them, but when Cox put them in
my keeping nothing would have tempt
ed me to betray them. I could have
placed my hands on Booth, but honor
and truth were worth more to me than
the entire wealth of the government.
_“'At the expiration of the sixth day I
heard the officers give orders for the
cavalry to go down in St. Mary’s coun
ty; that the assassins were there. That
was my chance, and I made good time
to where Booth and Herold weré con
cealed. Booth was glad to know that his
time to get into Virginia had come.
“‘The night was dark, and Herold and
[ lifted Booth on tomy horse. Our prog
ress was slow. We finally reached my
house, and I went in to get them some
thing to eat. We then proceeded to the
river. Booth was lifted into the boat
and was placed in the stern, while Her
old took the oars. I then lighted a can
dle and showed Booth by his compass
how to steer to get into Machodoc creek
and gave him directions to Mrs. Quesen
berry’s, who, I thought, would take
care of him. That was the last 1 saw of
Booth.
«“When notices were posted up that
to furnish bread or water to Booth
meant death,’’ went on Jones, 1 felt
pretty shaky. I knew that Booth had
hit the Virginia shore. 1 was arrested
and taken to Washington, where I was
held for seven weeks. Then I was dis
charged because nobody believed I knew
anything. »_New York World.

Zola'’s Plans For the Future.
Zola was recently being interviewed
concerning his future plans and re
marked that in 1935 he would take a
rest. °‘‘And in 1936?”’ asked the inter
viewer. ‘‘ln that year I shall be 96 and
shall die,”’ said the great novelist.
«That Has been arranged with my pub
lishers, £harpentier & Fasquelle!”” So
M. Zola’s rest doesn’t begin just yet.

Love and Taxes.
It would be interesting to know if
there is any connection between the un
asually large number of matrimonial
engagements that are being announced
thesé days and the movement to tax
pachelors. Let’s hope not for true love’s
sake. —Boston Herald. .
A DEATH DANCE.
Standing In Front of a M rror, She Kicked
and Sang Until She Fell, :
Wanda von Flander performed a skirt
dance in front of a mirror after she had
taken enough poison to kill a dozen
girls.
She is a waitress in a New York coffee
house and won notcriety as a high
kicker. She was so fond of displaying
her accomplishment in this line that
several proprietresses discharged her,
and a crowd of admirers always fol
lowed the girl to the coffee houses where
ghe got employment.
In the Cafe Royal, where she sipped
coffee and brandy with guests, six weeks
ago she met a young man known as
Billy.
Wanda and Billy fell in love. He
haunted the cafe and spent ney
freely. The capers of the girl afigher
high kicking did not please the pro
prietress, who told Wanda to leave.
She then weont to the Cafe Anchor
and had worked thefe only a short time
before her ability to kick off men’s hats
got her into disgrace. The proprietress
scolded her, and Wanda tried to kill
herself by taking poison, but the drug
was snatched away from her before she
had swallowed any of it.
Billy then took her from the coffee
house and told her he was going to
marry her. He hired a room for her
from a Mrs. Kern, paid her bills and
called on her evenings. They quarreled,
and for the last week he has not been to
see the girl. She grew despondent and
threatened to kill herself.
The other evening she bounded into
the room where Mrs. Kern was sitting
and began a skirt dance in front of a
big mirror.
T have taken poison and am glad of
it,”’ she sang as she danced. ‘“‘l'm go
ing to dance until I die. This is the
happiest moment of my life. My trou
bles are nearly over. Gayly I have lived,
and I intend to be as mesry in the next
world as I have been in this. I shall
have a good time, no matter in what
world I am cast.”’
She danced and kicked higher than
her head asshesang. She whirled about
and seemed to be mad. Mrs. Kern had
often seen her dance wildly, and she
did not pay much attention to her an
tics. She did not believe the girl had
taken poison.
Wanda had danced for five minutes
before she fell to the floor. The poison
had begun to work. She became vio-
Jently ill. Mrs. Kern helped her to a
lounge, then hurried to a drug store
and got some mustard, which she mixed
with water and tried to get the girl to
take. Wanda refused it.
‘I want to die,’’ she moaned. ‘‘Billy
has refused to marry me. 1 love him
and do not care to live without him.”’
Wanda was removed to the prison
ward in Beflevue hospital, and after
the doctors got through with her it was
said she would recover. At the cafes
where the girl had worked it was said
Billy had been around since he quarreled
with her and had tried to make love to
other waitresses. —New York Herald.

A GREAT GOUGH REMEDY.
Perhaps you may think that Scott’s Emulsion is
onlfi useful to fatten babies, toround up the angles and
make comely and attractive, lean and angular women,
and fill out the hollow cheeks and stop the wasting of
the consumptive, and enrich and vitalize the blood of
the scrofulous and anamic persons. It will do all this
—but it will do more. It will cure a
Hard, Stubborn Cough
when the ordinary cough syrups and specifics entirely
fail. The cough that lingers after the Grip and Pneu

DAVID B. HILL’'S MEMORY.
Judge Beckner of lentucky Relates =
Striking I:ncident Concerning 3t
Senator D. B. llill has a strong mem
ory. Judge W. M. Beckner of Ken
tucky, who filled the vacancy in the
Fifty-third congress caused by the death
of Don. M. C. Lisle, relates a striking
instance of it. One year ago the judge
was a member of the Kentucky legisla
ture. The struggzle over the confirmation
of Peckham as a justico of the supreme
court came up. Judge Bocknér offered
a resolution instructing the senators
from Kentucky to ‘‘vote for no man for
a seat on the bench of the suprome
court who was not a Democrat in prac
tice as well as in theory.” It called no
pames, but was published all over the
country and had thé effect to strengthen
the forces of Senator Hill Peckham
was beaten, and the country got a great
man and a true Democrat in Judge
White of Lonisiana. ]
When Judge Beckner came on to
Washington last fall, he was introduced
to Senator Hill, who instantly said: *'l
arm very glad to see you and thank yon
for that resolution in the Kentucky leg
islature last winter. 1t came at a good
time.’’
The judge is a warm friend of Presi
dent Gleveland, but Lo regards Hill as
one of the ablest politicians that the
country has ever produced. ‘‘Hois full
of information,’’ remarked the judge
the other day, ‘‘about public questions,
is always in sympathy with the masses
‘of the people and is recognized as one of
the most accomplished parlinmentarians
in tho senate. ’’'— Washington Post.
BOTH CANNOT BE GUILTY.
A Peculiar Case In England For Which'
Two People Are Being Punished.
A peculiar state of affairs has arisen
in a case which was before Lord Chief
Justice Russell a few weeks ago. A
man named Kelsall was conviocted at
Manchester in May, 1892, for man
slaughter in killing his wife by throw
ing a lighted lamp at ber. The principal
witness against him was the sister of
the wife, who gave a circumstantial ac
count of the affair, showing that the
husband’s act was deliberate and un
provoked. Kelsall was sentenced to 14
years in prison. A few months ago the
woman who testified against him con
fessed that her story was untrue. She
insisted upon telling the authorities,
but the judges at first refused to listen
to her. At last an accusation of perjury
was made, and she insisted upon plead
ing guilty. Lord Chief Justice Russell
sentenced ker toseven years penal servi
tude. Kelsall still remains in custody,
as it scemed impossible to decide wheth
er there was sufficient cause for setting
asido the verdict.
Don Cameron as a Presidential Candidate.
Senator Dubois of Idaho said to a re
porter in New York recently: ““I think
at present tho west is almost unani
mously in favor of the nomination of
Senator Don Cameron of Pennsylvania
as the Republican candidate for presi
dent. Sendtor Teller would make a
splendid candidate, but he is too far
west. Senator Cameron is a strong Re
publican, hLe is for protection to Amer
jcan industries, he lives in a protection
state, and, above all, he is for the free
and unlimited coinage of silver. He
will have the support of all the western
states at the national conventien, and
his nomination is among the probabili
ties.”’— Philadelphia Ledger.
Seaworthiness of Warships.
The wreck of the Spanish cruiser
Reina Regenta brings up once more the
question of the seawcrthiness of modern
warships. This is the third or fourth
demonstration that their tendency is to
be top heavy, owing to the weight of
guns and armor. That is a fault which
does not apply to the monitor type.
