Silas Owen, 'who. n settled down as . a factory inspector, at Co hoes after eight years oCea adven ture, told yesterday some furtaer de ulls of the aaaasslnatlon of Abraham, Lincoln.' - He ..was in Ford's Theatre on the night of the assassination of Abraham Lincoln. "People talk' a lot about what Booth called from the stage." - said Captain Owens yesterday. "He didn't say a word as he ran . Across the boards. He was ; too busy cursing his luck in hurting his leg, I reckon. What he did do was to stand for a moment on the red plush front of the box and call out something. - It may have been 'Sic semper tyrannls,' but though I was so near Z was too excited to make out the words. There wssn't a soul on the stage at the time. The curtain was. Just rising, and Laura Keene was Waitin gin the right wings to go on. An Mies Keene saw him she rec ognised him at once and cried out: 'My God. John, what have you doner He slashed- at her with his dagger, snd I could hear the sleeve omh li lac drees she was wearing tear. There was some blood found on it after ward, and it has been exhibited since as stained with the blood of the President. Tut how could that be? Booth hadn't been near enough to the President to get blood-etained. If there's any blood the dagger scratch ed her arm 'and that caused the stains. "I remember that a moment or two after Booth had escaped Miss Keene came running out and struck a the atrical attitude on the right side of the stage. There was an awful clam or going on as soon as the audience realized what Mrs. Lincoln had meant by calling from the box. 'He's killed paps!' "Miss Keene called out in the most dramatic fashion, 'It's John Wilkes Booth. Kill html - "The audience took up the shout, nd somehow or other they got hold of the rope from the flies, and in a few m'nyteg a dozen were suspended from the galleries with nooses at the end. "People kept shouting, 'Where Is he? Hang him! Bring him out!' If Booth had not got clear off he would have been hanged there and then for certain." " Captain Owens smiles as he speaks of the ordinary pictures of the death of Lincoln surrounded by a eroWd of Cabinet officers and doctors. He asks how so many men could possibly have got into the little room to which he was carried. It was only a hall bed room eight feet square and could .not have held them all. , ' V ' Captain' Owens la one of the seven men pledged to alienee, he says, who were admitted into the secret at the time of the disposition ot Booth's body. However, the pledge of silence has be4n long since removed and Cap tain Owens'saidf t'; "Sooth was brought p to the navy yard and placed on the Montauk.(the very vessel which, ss Flood said, was visited by Lincoln a tew hours before he was shot. - There the body lay on deck for sixteen hoars covered only with an old tarpaulin. At midnight It was removed to a cell in the old arse nal lust underneath the court where Justice Bingham was sitting la-the trial of the conspirators. A flagstone was raised, a hole was dug, and the body roughly cased in an old gun box Was lowered Into It. Then the flag stone was replaced and no one knew what had been done. The body re mained there from April 30, 1845. till 1372, when Booth's relatives claimed it and it was removed. Where they finally buried it has never been divulged." How Dickens Learned to Write. London Times. When asked by one of those' wise acres who are convinced that In or- jder to write good English a man must be taught to write bad Latin where his eon was educated. Mr. John Dick ens replied with considerable aplomb that hi son er well, hjs son er .iui m wimuvi saia, in a sense, to have educated himself. The street, the warehouse, Mr. Creakle. an at torneys office, the reporters' gallery and postchaise such was the edu cation that equipped a young man et to preside at the banauet of lit erature at an unprecedented age, to make the best speeches In London, -to go Into the best society, to set the table in a roar, to lead every company in which he mixed, to travel, acquire xrtmcn ana xianan with ease and write the most animated letters known to the modern world. , Held on Charge of Adultery.
