BIRDS HOMEWARD BOUND,

The spring migration of birds is the
subject of a page in the st. Nicholas.
A wonderful thing is happening now,
the writer declares. A winged army
hundreds OF miles long is moving north
right over our heads. 1t travels under
cover of the night, so that, unless We
listen for the calls of the regiments,
or turn our telescopes to the moon and
see them, as black specks, crossing its
bright face, or else go to a lighthouse
tower and watch for them to come to
the light, we will know nothing about
the advance of the main army But
when we go early to the fields and
woods, we get exciting hints OF what
is happening in the dark. Squads Of
feathered soldiers, not there the even
ing before, surprise us at every turn
Some Of them are stopping only for the
day to get food and rest to enable them
go on their journey again at night;
but some of them have come to stay,
for they have got back to their old
homes where they built their nests last
year. It is so exciting to feel the
country all filing up again with life
and song, so good to see our friends
back, and to discover new ones with
them, that we want ask each bird
hundred questions. Where did this
army start from? How did the leaders
know the way home? How did they
travel the thousand of miles they had
to? 1t makes us to want to know
everything there is, to know about this
wonderful movement of the birds,
called migration. A great many of the
birds are coming back from Central
America, some as far as from southern
Brazil in South America. The ques-
ton is, How do they travel so far
without getting lost? There are 10
RAILROADS or steamship lines for them,
but they have roads that serve them
just as well. Some Of them follow the
coast-line north, others keep near to
the great ranges Of mountains and
river valleys that run generally north
ward and southwark They fly so high
from one to three miles above the
earth-that they can see as we'll as we
could from a balloon or mountain
top; better than we could, for their
eyes are sharper than ours. They can
see probably hundred miles all about.
Then the old birds lead the way for the
young to follow, and as the army
probably struggles along for hundreds
of miles, the birds are always within
hearing of each other, SO they are not
very likely to get lost. From the 1st
to the goth of May most of the birds
come back to the middle eastern states,
and you will need to go out every day
and keep a sharp lookout not to miss
any of them.

THE CAPTURE OF CHARLES
The Kings Unavailing Flight to Ca
risbrooke Castle.

The flight of Charles l. from Hamp-
ton Court to the isle of Wight. and his
arrest and transfer to Windsor castle.
are described in the Century in the
seventh of Mr.. Morley's Cromwell
papers.
We now know that Charles fed from
Hampton Court because he had been
told by the Scottish ENJOYS, as well as
from other quarters, that his life was
in danger, but without any more fixed
designs than when he had fed from
Oxford in April of the previous year.
He seems to have arranged to take
ship from Southampton Water, but the
vessel never came, and he took refuge
in Carisbrooke Castle, in the Isle of
Wight November IA, 1647).
Charles might possibly, even at the
eleventh hour, have made his escape,
but he still nursed the illusion that the
army could not crush the Parliament
without him. He had, moreover,
given his parole. When reminded that
he had given it, not to the army, but to
the Parliament, his somber pride for
once withstood sophism At break
of the winter day December 81 a body
Of officers broke into his chamber, put
him into coach, conducted him to the
coast, and then transported him across
the Solent to Hurst Castle. desolate
and narrow blockhouse standing at the
edge of a shingly spit on the Hamp-
shire shore. In these dreary quarters
he remained for a fortnight. The
last scene was now rapidly approach
ing of the desperate drama in which
every one of the actors-king, Parlia-
ment, army, CromwelI-was engaged
in a death-struggle with an implacable
necessity.
On December Is the council of
officers determined that Charles should
be brought to Windsor, and Fairfax
sent orders occordly. In the depth
of the winter night the king in the
desolate keep on the sea-shingle heard
the clanking of the drawbridge, and at
daybreak he learned that the redoubt-
able Mayor Harrison had arrived
Charles we'll knew how short a space
divides the prison of a prince from his
grave. He had often revolved in him
mind "sad stories of the death of
kings, of Henry vi, of Edward II,
murdered at Berkeley, of Richard II at
Pontetract, Of his grandmother at
Fortheringay-an he thought that the
presence of Harrison must mean that
his own hour had come for like
mysterious doom. Harrison was nc
man for these midnight deeds, though
he was fervid in his belief. and so he
| told the king, that justice was no re-
| specter of person, and great and small
alike must be submitted to the law
! Charles was relieved to find that he
was only going ito exchange the worst
of his castle for the BEST and after a
| ride of four days December 1929
| through the New Forest, Winchester,
! Farnham, Bagshot, he found himself
| once more at the noblest of the palaces
of the English sovereigns Here for
some three weeks he passed infatuated
hours in the cheerful confidenc that
| the deadlock was as immovable as
ever, that his enemies would find the
knot inextTicabIe, that he was still
| their master, and that the blessed day
would soon arrive when he should fit
round their neckS the avenging halter.
