Between 1865 and 1901, three American Presidents (Lincoln, Garfield, McKinley) were assassinated. In 20th century terms, that would be equivalent to Kennedy, Reagan, and Clinton dying by assassination. That would cause 20th century people to freak out. What was the feeling toward this in the 1800s?

We all know that public pools do not put a chemical in the water as an indicator that someone is peeing in the pool. If they did, what do you think could be the mechanism that would trigger the color change? The chemical reaction? A thermal reaction? A hydraulic reaction? How would it work?
