How the Assassin of President Lincoln

the Tragedy ,
The IjnM HopcH oftliol ntmtlo.
George Alford Townaond contributes
an article to the April number of The
Century accounting for a week in the
hiatorv of Wilkes Booth's flight after the
assassination of President Lincoln unac
counted for _ in that history as hithorb
related. Lincoln wan shot at about 1 (
o'clock Friday night , April 14 , 1805
Near midnight he and David E. Harol <
called at Surratt'a ' tavern about ten miles
southeast of Washington. Saturday
morning they vroro at Dr. Samuel A
Mudd'a twenty miles further on , whore
Booth's broken ankle was sot and n
crutch was made for him ; that ovoninf
ho was at the house of Samuel Cox , n
prosperous southern sympathizer , livin ;
about fifteen miles aoutwest. The laa
witness in Maryland ondedjhero. . The
government took up the fugitive next a
the crossing of the Hnppahannock rive
in Virginia , on the 2ltfi of April. Wha
occurred to Booth in the interval Mr
Townsend tolls on the authority of ono
Thomas A. Jonoa , a foster-brother n
Samuel Cox , wlio always exerted a strong
influence over him , .lonea was of courao
at this time a strong sympathizer
thizor with the southern cauao , whic ]
ho had aidedj throughout the war 11
his own small wy. He is at present it
business at North Baltimore , and keeps a
coal , wood and fuel yard. Among the
services which Jonon rendered the confederacy
fodoracy was the carrying of persons ant
mails across the Potomac , a service in
volving somu danger , and frequently requiring
quiring coolness and cunning. His use
fulness in this direction was increased b ;
the fact that after being arrested in 180
and released in March , )8i'J ) ( , ho was no
regarded with any suspicion by the federal
oral ollicors. Ho was aware of the schem
which existed late in the war period , fo
kidnapping President Lincoln , though i
was not designed that ho should take nn
part in it. Thu bateau which was t
carry Lincoln across the river was koptii

conceived until the end of the war
Jones heart ! of the murder of Lincoln 01
Saturday afternoon , April ID. The nox
morning Jones waa summoned to Cox'
residence , the young white man who bor
the message intimating mysteriously Urn
there Tfiiro very remarkable visitors a
Cox's the night before. Jones' rospondoi
to the summons , and being taken aside b
Cox was informed that on the proviou
night the assassin of Lincoln had come t
the house in company with nnotlio
person , guided by a negro , and hat
asked for assistance to cross the Potoma
river ; "and , " said Cox , "you will have t
got him across. " Ho was directed to th
place whore the fugitives were hidden
among some short pines near by , am
there ho found them. As ho advancct
into the pines ho caino upon a aaddlot
mare roving around in n little cloarot
space , and tied her. Ho then gave n aig
nal , and Harold fully armed iml with a
caiibino in his hand , came out. Horol.
conducted him to Booth , who was lyinj
'
on the ground wrapped up in blankets'
nnd a crutch beside him. IJis rumplut
dross looked respectable for that country
and Jonoa says it was of black cloth. Hi
face was palo at all times , and neve
ceased to bo so during the several day
that Jonoa saw him. Ho was in groa
pain from his broken ankle , which liai
suffered a franturo of one of the two
bones in the leg down clone to the font
It would not have given him any groa
pain but for the exertion of his escape
which irritated it by scraping the ends o
the broken bone , perhaps , in the llcah
It waa now highly irritated , and which
ever w y the man moved ho oxprossoc
by a twitch or a groan the pain he felt.
Booth waa very solicitous to knov
what mankind thought of his crime
which ho fully admitted. He was vor
anxious to got to Virginia , where h
could have medical attendance , and lie
declared that ho would never bo takci
olivo. In n day or two Jones wont to
Port Tobacco to hoar about the murder
and while there heard a detective say hi
would guarantee $100,000 to the mat
who could toll where Booth waa , but i
never occurred to him for a moinon
that it would bo a good thing for him t
have the money. Ho comforted Boot
ill hia concealment aa ho could , viaitin
him daily , and carried him food. Wit
the fugitives in their concealment wor
two horses on whidi they had rode
Within a day or two after entering th
place , Booth hoard a band of cavalry go
ing along the road at no great diatanc
and thu neighing of their horses. H
aaid to Herold : "If wo can hoar thos
horses , they can certainly hoar the noigli
ing of ours , which are urn way from wan
of food and stabling. * ' Jonoa nubsu
quontly said thu horao ought to bo pu
out of the way , and they were nccor
dingly taken into a swamp and shot. N
incidents broke the monotony for day
though soldiers rode hither and thi'lic '
examining the marshesbutnot penetrating
thopiiios. Six days and nights the fugitive
remained in concealment , and on Frida ;
'
night an opportunity presetted itself fo'
escape. The night was pkch _ dark , am
Jones had found that the soldiers wouh
bo out of the way. Ho had but ono little
ekilf in which to maVo the ferriage of the
river. Going to Booth and Horold ho
said : "Now , fn'onds , Miis is your only
chance. The night is pitch dark and my
boat is close by. I will got you some
supper at my house , and send yon off if ]
can. With considerable dillictilty am
with sigh * and pain Booth was lifted oi
to Jones' horse , and Herold was put tv
the bridle. Jones led the way , progress
being made in silence , except as Jones
occasionally cave n whistle as a signal.
They stopped near Jones' houae. Booth ,
with a sudden longing , exclaimed , "Oil ,
can't I go in the house just a moment and
got a little of your warm calico t" Tears
came into Jones' oyoa as ho denied the
roquoat. because , as he said , there were
negroes in the house who would betray
them. Jonoa wont in , nto his supper
without linato , rejoined 'jio ' fugitives
and proceeded to where * hia boat was.
Booth was carried to < ho koat and embarked -
barked witli Horold Both were heavily
armed. Jones i vo Booth the dircc-
tions as to the Bourse to bo atoorod , and

fhero was a moment's sound of oara on

They did not succeed in crossing the

procured food for him at the house. On
Sunday morning , the ninth day alter the
assassination , they reached Mrs. Qucon-
borry'a , and loft their boat thoro. They
wont to the house of a man named Bryan ,
on the next farm to Mrs. Quosonborry's ,
and Bryan took them to the summer
liouso of Dr. Richard Stewart , two or
Lhroo miles back in the country. Dr.
Stewart waa much annoyed at learning
that the assassins of President Lincoln
were on his promises , and did not invite
thorn into nis house , but sent thorn
to ono of the out-buildings. Booth was
so chagrined that ho look a loaf from his
dairy , and with n load pencil wrote a letter -
tor to Dr. Stewart , saying ho would not
take hospitality extended in that way
without paying for it , and inclosed § 3.
From Dr. Stewart's he had himself con
voyed to Port Codway. Ho probably

The DynamlU : Flonds who Mannl'iiu

An advertiser in The Sunday Tribun
calls the attention of jokers to his stocl
of "Old Sport" cigars loaded with ret
lire , which , ho says , are just the thin ;
for April 1. The Tribune statistics-of
local-depravity reporter visited the ostab
liahmont yesterday in the guise of a
joker , and gleaned considerable informa
lion regarding this comparatively no\
industry. The place was evidently wha
the proprietor claimed it to bo the na
tional headquarters of the loaded-ciga
business. Pyramids of boxes of cigars
fresh from the hands of the packer , wore
ranged along the floor , and built agains
the walls , and piled up in the windows
The reporter said ho wished to see some
"Old Sports. " The proprietor led the
way to ono of the pyramids , and oponiiij
ono of thochromo-covcrcdboxcsdiaplayo (
what acoincd to bo a box of choice Ha
vanaa , fresh and fragrant in all thui
treacherous beauty.
"What's the price ? " naked the reporter
fooling strongly tempted to buy five or 1C
cents' worth.
"Fifty-five dollars , " replied the pro
priotor.
"Ah ! And what are they usually retailed
tailed at ? "
"Ton cents each , or three for a quarter
I gueaa. "
Then in response to further quuationin
the proprietor explained that his firm die
a wholesale business only , and , moreover
th.it they bossed the loaded-cigar busincs
in the United States a statement whic
ho made with evident prido.
"TJioro's a firm in Cincinnati , " ho con
tinned , "that tried to got into this buai
ness and imitate our cigar. They couldn'
do it. When their cigars got dry afto
being kept a while in stock , and a man gr
to smoke ono oj them , why , it wouldn'
blaze out Roman-candle style like ours
but would explode slap bang ! and blot
the half of his head off/ '
The reporter pondered n little on th
number of-half heads that must bo strowi
around Cincinnati. Then ho said : "Die
they not know how to make the th
thing you load with ? "
"Tho cartridge. You bet they didn't
That's our secret. If once that got on
wo would have many imitators , but as i
is the trade is not a good-onough-payiiij
ono to tempt manufacturers to npem
money in experimenting. It is easy to go
a cartridge that will blaze in a shower o
sparks while it is fresh and damp , bu
the trouble is that when it is perfectly
dry it _ gocs oil like a shot. Ours is no'
that kind. Wo have boon working at thi
thing about three yoarB , and wo have go
a cartridge perfectly harmless and ono
that gives the same roatilta in cither con
dition , wet or dry. "
Further inquiry developed the state
monte that the loaded-cigar trade boom
only about holiday-time. About July
the sales reach as high as 10,000 cigars a
week , and other holidays , such as Christ
mas-Day , they run from 2,000 to 5,000 o
wock. The sales about April 1 average
nearly 5COOa , _ week. In the quiet time
between holidays the sales run as low a
1,000 , per month. Those figuroa nro no
for Chicago alone , but for the whole
cuuntry. The cigara are manufactured in
Chiiag o , and the firm has an eastern dis
tributing-branch at Now York. The
proprietor boliovcd thoao loaded cigar
were retailed at about fifty cigar
stands in the city , but complained tha
the trade was not pushed with the
energy usually characteristic of Chicago
cage business-men. Ho hoped , however
over , to see it considerably improved by
and by.
It would Boom from this that the Chi
cngo people are not yet odticatod up to
the loaded-cigar standard of humor 1 :
this firm wanted n bonanza it should move
its headquarters to Boston , with a west-
urn branch at St. Louia.
The sum of the reporter's investigation
is that the number of people who would
traitorously olfur a poisonous concoction
of saltnutro and cnhbago-Ioaf in the guise
of a good cigar the common symbol ol
pcaco and friendship is creditably small
in tliia city. Thoao who would do BO would
throw stones at their grftiidmothora and
call it fun , and are just the kind of people -
plo who deserve to bo lynched on general
irinciplcs.
Why use a gritty , imulcty , disagree.--

Fanny Davenport Finds No Fluid ,
No Food and1 Constant
Walking
The Only Method of Getting Thin nnil
Keeping So.
Vnw York Sun.
Among the stout members of the thea
trical profession there has lately spring up
n desire to "bant , " that is , to carry out
the principles laid down some twenty
years ago by William Banting for the
reduction of obesity. The fashion was sot
by Miss Fanny Davonpcrt , who recently
informed the writer of her mode of pro
cedure. She said ;
" 1 found myself growing heavier rapid
ly , although , being tall , 1 was able to
carry moro llcsh with less inconvenience
than most women. But ono clay , when
in London , I got weighed , and was so
startled I may say alarmed at the in
crease of weight , that I sixid to myself ,
'ilero , this must stop ! "
"All very easy to say , but how tomako
it stop was the question.
"First 1 began to read all 1 could find
on the subject of the reduction of Heah ,
and decided that the old Banting system
was the best. 1 was much given to outing
candies and pics ; it coat mo a great effort
to relinquish those , especially the pastry ,
for I am all nn American as far as liking
pie is concerned. Still , 1 did it. I used
always to c.irry a box of bon-bons in my
pocket , and when 1 lirst laid it aside I
was as much lost without it aa n confirmed
snuir taker would bo without his ( mull
box. But quite a marked decrease in
weight rewarded my aolf-donial and en
couraged mo to persevere. Walor , too ,
was another weakness of mine. 1 used
to drink , oven in water , several tumbler-
fulls , ono after the other , and very fculy
while eating. Well , 1 stopped drinking
water , gradually , of course , so that now
I never touch it. "
"Novur drink water ! With what do you
supply its place wine boorf"
"iS'o , those I never cared for. I drink
iced tea , winter and summer , and never
anything else.

from my list of fattening foods , and for
months 1 have not touched it. Inhospit
able I undoubtedly am , since I never
'break bread' with any ono. "
"How about vegetables ? "
"Aa I never cared much for them , to
abstain from them altogether is not a
deprivation. "
"Then it is true , aa they say , that you
eat nothing but beef ? "
"No , it isn't either , for I tat mutton ,
poultry , eggs and fish. But I do noi
attribute my lessoning of flesh solely t < :
abstinence from certain articles of food ,
but to the oxurciao I take. I used to ride
everywhere , now , I never ride when J
can walk , not oven in a car. Sometimes ,
indeed , whenever my time permits , I starl
out in the morning and walk all day long ,
no matter what the weather may be. A1
first 1 used to return so tired that I could
hardly got through the performance , bul
now it seems to me the longer 1 walk ,
the fresher I become. In short , to sum
it all up , in my opinion the only way tc
bccnmo thin , and to kcop thin , is first ,
no fluids ; second , no food ( worth speak
ing of ) ; third , constant walking. To one
who has sulibrcd from a superfluity oi
flesh , the lightness which is the immetli
ate result of banting compensates for the
deprivation of austatory pleasures.
Whereas J used to fool heavy , 1 now feel
as light on my feet as a child on parloi
skates. "
Miss Ellio Gormon , the charming s u-
brctto of Wallack's theater , has also tried
the Bunting system , but tvith different
results from those experienced by Miss
Davenport. In answer to a question on
the subject , she replied , with a laugh :
"Uavo 1 tried to reducemy bulk by
banting ? That I havo. I abstained from
fattening teed until I got so weak I could
hardly walk , and I gained all the time in
weight. Did I also refrain from water
and other fluids ? I did , and the less ]
ate and drank , and the moro 1 walked
and used dumb-bells and took Turkish
baths ,
Till ! I'ATTKU I ( JOT.
I suffered so much from hunger and
thirst that 1 often dreamed 1 was ship
wrecked at sea and dying of starvation. I
really envied that castnAYiiy seafaring
man , who had the luxury of eating the
whole crow , and being well fed , sang :
' 'Oil , I nui the cook niul the captain bold ,
Am ! the m.ito of the Nancy brig ,
And thu Im'sim ti 'lit ,
Anil the nildsliiimiito ,
And the crow of the captain's gig. "
"Anti-fat" Stouter and stouter did I
grow on that till I was obliged to give it
up , so that of late I do nothing but take
all the oxcrciao I can , and that neema to
kcop mo about the same weight from
year to year. "
Mrs. Eldridgo , who plays the old wo
man in Edwin Booth's company , called
affectionately "Aunt Lou , " declares she
is a "natural banter , " inasmuch as alio
never wants to eat or drink anything of
a fattening tendency , ami BO keeps her
liguro as trim as that of u girl. Hose
Eytingo is a very abstemious eater as a
rule ; but in the springtime- partakes of
spring vegetables , and grows stout as the
summer comes on , and then trains down
For the winter campaign. She drinks
French coffee without milk or sugar.
Agnes Booth and Sara Jowott are both
celebrated for their beautiful forms.
Both have handsome backs , a great ad
vantage in these days , when dresses are
cut BO low in the back as to display the
shoulder blades. Both ladies regulate
'heir diet BO as to keep up that degree of
ilumpnoas which is the first essential of
Joauty.
Good looks , both of form and feature ,
are the stock in trade of an actress. The

Ictariorato the shapeliness of hU figure.
Still , for _ those who play young parts ,
obesity is considered misfortune , as in
he case of McKco Rniikin , who played
ho role of n young hero in "Storm-
leaton , " when , at the beginning of this
vason it was produced at the Union
iquiirn theatre. Ho hud to place him-
elf in all sorts of negligent attitudes ,

J were moro amusing than sentimental ,
nd for this reason principally , ho ro-
gned iit's Jrolo to an actor of lighter
mild. Mr. Jo oph Whiting , r.lao of the
qunro Theatre , was for some time con-
onmod by his bulk to play parts of
nudlo age , but having lately become a
nest determined banter , ho has made
figure BO trim nnd youthful that ho
has resumed the juvenile roles. Ho say
ho lost seventeen pounds in thrco week
by abstaining from bread nnd butte
alone. The question that naturally presents
sonts itself to the inquirer into this sub
ject _ i , how much bread and butter ar
required to make seventeen pounds o
llcsh ?
William Mestayer says no , ho neve
bunts. Why should he , wnen flesh i
not a drawback , but rather the reverse it
his line of _ business ? There are sovora
other prominent fat actors whoso face i
their fortune , BO they care too little fo
their figure to refuse the goods the god
provide for the table , especially M in lea
prosperous times somi-itarvation was no
voluntary , but enforced.
And talking of faces , the Banting sys
torn spoils the fai.o almost as much as i
benefits the figure. After throe week
of steady banting the face become
wrinkled and haggard , the cheeks dro
down on to the aeamy , erst double , chii :
now a corrugated ban of flesh. There i
a pinched look about the nose , whic
takes on a topor-liko tint , the akin on th
forehead gets stretched and tight , am
the oycs bulge out as their bed of Heal
is withdrawn. The hands , too , bec m
wrinkled as in age. But the most ser
ous trouble superinduced by the Bantin
system is the degeneration of the digcsl
ivo faculties , to which the recent deal
of Count Chambord was directly duo
Ho had followed the instructions pro

A YOSEMITE YAKN.
The Adventure of a Hey AVItli a lien
nnd Tuo Linns.
MariposaCal. ( ) GIUC.UC.
James Lawrence and Pike , the wcl
known guide and boar hunter of Yose
mite valley , have been camping durin
the winter season on Alder creek , abou
five miles above Big Tree station. Thi
locality is in the midst of a heavy pin
forest and undorwrowth of ahrubber
and a variety of woods , bordering upo
the north bank of the south fork of th
Merced river , and abounds witfi game
Lawrence has a boy 11 years old ( a hal :
breed Indian ) , who is stopping in th
camp. At this time the snow is thre
foot deep all the way from the static
to Alder crook , and the only visitor t
that section whore Lawrence and Fik
are housed up for the winter waa Willlan
Van Campen , who was there on Fob. 25
While there the following moat pcrilou
and romantic adventure ot the boy , whic
had occurred but a day or two previous
was related to Mr. Van Campen :
The boy went out hunting by himscl
and when about a mile from homo cam
across a buck , which ho shot , and , as h
supposed had killed , and was about I
cut the throat of of his game preparator
to hanging it up to a tree when th
fleer jumped up and made an attac
upon the boy , which caused him to bca
a hasty retreat , and seek shelter up
tree. In the meantime a dog which ac
companicd him engaged the buck in
tussle , until , from the loaa of blood.oc
caaioned by the shot , it weakened , am
the boy came down , cut its throat , am
hung it up Ho then started for camp t
got assistance to carry in his game am
had gone but a short distance when h
discovered two California lions , whic
no doubt smollcd the blood of the dee
and were in cloao pursuit after him.
Being but a abort distance from camp
the boy ran as fast as ho could throng
the deep snow , with the lions close afte
him , and just as ho was turning a point o
a ridge ho came suddenly upon a bear
which stood his ground and allowed th
boy to angle his course and pass on. A
this point the two lions and the bear mo
and us the boy looked back ho observu
them in apparent consultation as the ,
atood together. From this point the bo |
ran and hallooed as loud as he conic
which was hoard by Pike and Lawrence
who were in camp. They forthwith grab
bed their guns and wont to the boy's ro
lief. On taking the back track , the ,
came to the spot where the lions and bea
had trampled the snow , and , to all ap
poarancoa , hold a council and departed
the lions taking the back track and th
boar going in an opposite direction. I
was probably well for the boy that ho wa
of .Indian blood , otherwise his wits woult
have boon frightened out of him. Two
liona and ono bear was enough for on
day's adventure.

The sighting of eight monster whales
has caused widespread excitement on the
Long Island coaat , between Montauk nnd

two of them , a cow and a ca'f , were scon
blowing two miles oil' shore from the
Amaganaett Lifo Saving Station. A ral
ly waa made and thr o whaling crows
rushed out to sea in hot pursuit. The
chase , which was kept up during thy day ,
was joined in by live additional crows
from Eaathampton and Bridgohampton ,
After going twenty miles to sea the chase
was abandoned. It was resumed again
yesterday , but without hotter success. '
