Adr. FAKIRS WHO THRIVE OH "RELICS" OF BOOTH EXPOSED BY H. W. FAY SPRINGFIELD, 111.; April 4. Five alleged skulls of John; Wilkes Booth; assassinator of President Lincoln,, arje on exhibition in the unyea siaies, ana twenty Booths" have died, according to Herbert WjelU Fay, custodian of Lincoln's tomb here. ; ' Recurring reports that Booth lived 38 years after President Lincoln's death and later committed suicide, are characterized by Mr. Pay as wild. "Those who wish to make mo ney out of the hoax, or to create cheap notoriety, are the only ones to dispute he historical record of Booth's death in a barn at the Garret farift," Mr. Fay. asserted. David E. George was . only one of 20 different men who have Bought to create a furore by claim ing to be Booth. Recently while lecturing on uootn s aeatn at tne tomb, one jot my audience who gave his name as William H. Re gan, said he embalmed the body of George, j Asked whether he inougnt n was tsootn ana wnetner the dead man had any , proof of his identity, Regan said he be lieved not. Nevertheless, George's body was embalmed j and shown over the coiuntry in a commercial show scheme." The version of Booth's death accepted by the custodian of the victim's toifcb is'as followst "John Wilkes Booth eluded his pursuers for 1 1 days. ' He was fed by Thomas A. Jones fin the meantime In a grove along the Potomac. Lieutenant Baker of the secret service, who had often seen Booth, and his men were watch ing the fugitive. When he crossed the river be was suspected and chased tp the Garrett farm. "Baker and his men surrounded the house $nd after some parley they ascertained that Booth and Herald were in the barnJ They demanded Several times that he corns out. Colonel Conger's men were surrounding the barn. They threatened to set fire to the barn and Herold emerged and surrend ered.' Booth refused, ! saying ! he would "'die Jn the last ditch. The barn! was set afire. f . "Boston Corbett, a sergeant, saw. Booth .through a crack and disobeying orders, shot him. He was brought, out by. Conger's men and died in three hours. The body waisr brought ; to Washington and identified bjy various i men ; who knew Booth. One, Dr. Jolm F. May, I identified the body by an ugly wound on the neck from a operation fperformed some time before. Against his : physician's advice Booth insisted on acting, and reopened the! wound,: which healed badlr. if; "Bootn was ouriea unaer a federal prispn and an accurate de tailed report made of position and condition a? required. Later Ed win :BoothJ actor-brother of . the slayer, obtained an order allowing him to see the body, hoping that a mistake had been made. He viewed the body and identified it as that of his brother. He also called in dentists who identified fillings in the teeth of the body, which made identification positive. Edwin Booth claimed the body and buried it In the family burying ground at Baltimore in an un marked grave." Deep Sea Tale Starts Old Sea Dogs Gossiping HULL. England, March 28. Windjammers have become so scarce on the high seas that today a sailing vessel of any kind at tracts more or less attention in almost any port, and especially after a long voyage. In the eyes of seafaring men the full rigged ship is rapidly disappearing and it has been estimated that there are but 125 of this type of vessel in commission in all the world to day. Of these only five are own ed by British interests, compared with hundreds a few years ago. After one of the worst voyages ever recorded on her log, the 4 masted Germain sailing ship Georg Kemme arrived in Hull recently from Mobile, Ala., loaded with cotton, after being marked up as nearly five weeks overdue. -The ship was caught In a West Indies hurricane in December, blown back on her course for hundreds of milea, lost, most of her sails, and was nearly dismantled. She was on the verge of being tossed ashore when her anchors caught and held just in the nick of time. Stowaway on R-34 Now Pilot in Royal Air Force . LONDON, IMarch 28: William Baiiantyne, who was a stowaway on the R-34 when she flew to America in July, 1919, has at last been'' successful in obtaining bis "wings,'' or in other words his pilot's certificate. : After his es capade on the dirigible,, Baiiantyne was sent back to Howden In Yorkr shire, where he remained untii the airdrome closed down and was then transferred to Egypt Here he studied for the Royal Air Force pilot's certificate. He pass ed his tests and is now pilot-sergeant in one of the air mail planes between Cairo and Bagdad, a des ert journey of 700 miles each way. Baiiantyne was an original member of the crew of the R-34, but it was found necessary to leave him behind. He was bent on making the trip, however, and, two hour8 before the craft left Scotland, he hid himself in the rigging. When the airship was about 60 miles out he was dis covered,' lying sick" and feverish among some bags to which he had crept from, the r.igging. After treatment by the staff physician he worked his way across for the rest of the voyage. MANY DISTANT STARS SURPASS SUN IN HEAT, -SCIENTIST DECLARES WASHINGTON. April 4 Est! mating the diameters of ten of the brighter stars by separating their heat into a long spectrum and measuring the heat of the different colors and then calculat ing the probable temperatures of each of these heavenly bodies, was the work of Dr. C. G. Abbot, director of the Astrophysical Ob servatory of the Smithsonian In stitution, during a recent series of field experiments, whose - results have just been made public A star, hiving nearly three times the heat of the sun. was among those observed by Dr. Ab bot. This was Beta Rigel, having an estimated absolute temperature of 16,000 degrees centigrade, com pared with the sun's 6,000 degrees centigrade. Other stars observed with a greater temperature than that of the sun were: Vega, Ab solute temperature, 14.000 degrees centigrade; Sirius. the brightest star In the heavens. 11,000; Procyon, 8.000 The other stars were- Capeila, 5.800; Aldebaran. 3.000 Beta Pegasi, .2,8500; Betel geuse, 2,600,! and Alpha Herculis, 2,500. The last two have an esti mated diameter 500 times greater than that of the sun. Dr. Abbot used in this work a radiometer, constructed under the direction of D. E. F. Nichols, pioneer In; measuring the beat of the stars. Utlizing the giant tele scope at the; Mount Wilson ob servatory in i California, with its 100-inch reflecting lens," Dr. Ab bot was enabled to obtain fairly accurate measurements of the heat of the different colors, even far into the .infra-red. Curves were drawn, indicating the spectral dis tribution in the radiation of blue, white, yellow and red stars, and estimates of their probable tem peratures were made. Rockne Plan of Coaching Enters Upon Second Year WILLIAMSBURG, Va., March 2 8 -A giant j Swede who coached an Irish eleven of Indiana Into the national gridiron peerage will come to the ; ancient (College,- of William and Mary here next June. His baggage j will consist largely of a bag of icrafty tricks, whose intricate mechanism he .will ex pound to the coaches who guide football destinies on southern greenswards, j His name is Knute Rockne, of Notre Dame, and he comes to! conduct his second school for mentors in Virginia. - Last year Rockne held his firr institute here and coaches who attended declare the influence of his teachings was reflected on many southern gridirons during the past season. So pleased were his pupils with his Instructions that they prevailed on him to take up the chalk for anotLr-r series of lectures. Rockne recent ly wired as tot and J. Wilder Tasker, William and Mary coach, has broadcast invitations to men tors over the entire south to at tend. The courses will cover two weeks. Originality marks the methods of instruction. Blackboard dia grams explain the morning lec tures while in the afternoons the famous coach dons football togs with hfsclass and puts his theo ries into actual play. He does not" spare himself either in the classrooms, where lectures last for five hours dally, or on the field, where actual demonstrations de mand strenuous physical effort. Carryingt the ball or "holding down the crucial point In the line, Rockne is nearly always in the thfck of the scrimmage. Many of the formations which rolled the Irish eleven to victories in 1923 were seen on the gridirons of -Virginia last fall. Rockne's teaching is never vague, and he stresses the theory of modern foot ball into the minds of his students as easily as he drills his tactics into his flying backfields at home. Rockne ill spend two weeks at the Oregon Agricultural college summer sessions. Lift Off-No Pain! "Doesn't hurt one bit! .
