AND oBsERvER-CONsOLIDATED
THE MIGRATION OF BIRDS.

Speaking of birds coming back
from the South, let me explain, so
far as | can, where they have been,
why they went, and why they take
the trouble to come all the way
back again. Many thousands of
years ago birds didn't migrate at
all. There was no occasion for
them to do SO. All the northern
countries, even Greenland, and the
most northern parts Of Europe
were warm the year round, and the
birds and other animals which
lived there found everything they
needed close at hand. But by and
by there came great changes in the
conditions of the climate, and
gradually there began period
known as the "Ice Period when
Il large part of the northern coun-
tries became extremely cold, and
were buried under the ice, says
Ernest Seton Harold Baynes in the
Woman Home Companion.
OF course the birds which lived
in these countries could not stand
the severe change, so they had to
either go to a warmer climate or
die. The sensible ones all went
South, and made the best of it.
But they never quite forgot their
Northern home, and long after,
when the great ice cape melted
away and when the Northern
countries became warm again, the
descendants of the birds, which
were driven out by the cold, went
back to their own country. There
they found plenty Of food, SO they
stayed and made their nests and
laid their eggs. But alas the
climate was no longer as it used to
be-mild and warm the whole year
round. 1t was divided into sea-
sons, and the warm summer was
followed by a cold winter. They
had scarcely reared their young
before the air was beginning to get
cold again, SO as soon as the little
ones were strong enough to stand
the long journey they oil few away
to the South. But they never for
get where their real homes are.
Every spring there comes over
them great longing to go back
and make their nests where they
themselves were born. They can
not resist that longing. No mat
ter where they may be-down in
tho Calf States, in the West In
dian Islands, or perhaps thousands
Of miles away in the Southern part
Of South America-back they come
by tens Of thousands, and by mil
lions, to their old homes in the
North.
Many of the smaller and weaker
birds, like the fly.oatchers, vireos,
wrens, ringlets and bluebirds, in
order to avoid their enemies, the
hawks, make their long flights by
night, stopping for rest and food
in the daytime. The large and
older ones, like the hawks and
crows, and those Of extremely rapid
fight, like the swallows and hum
ming birds, migrate fearlessly by
day, and there are some, like the
Canada geese, which travel just
when they choose, by day or night
Migrating birds usually fly at a
height Of from one to three miles,
and this enables them to see the
rivers, the mountain ranges and
the coast line. By these they di.
rect their course, the old birds
remembering the way they came
before, and the young ones follow.

A labor paper declares that nine
tenths of the fourteen-year old
boys Of this land are out of schools
earning their own living. No
thoughtful man can fail to see the
wrong in imposing continuous if
not hard toll upon those SO young.
The proportion of girls of that age
and under who are to-day thrown
into the ranks of toll is probably
less, but the State that permits
children of either sex to toll is
deserving of condemnation It is
only mercenary aud selfish
spirit that would coin the health
and hope of childhood into dollars.
Toll weighs heavily on the growing
sometimes frail, bodies of children
and the iron hand of labor pressed
TOO soon upon tnem stunts their
growth and checks their mental
as well as physical development.
Coming generations-the children
of to-day-must suffer for the
wrongs imposed upon those now
budding into manhood aud woman
hood. The parent who permits or
compels child to work at a tender
age is unworthy the name of father
or mother and deserves no more
mercy from the lawmaking power
of the land than does the employer
Of child labor who considers no
moral obligation to the State or
society so long as there are more
dollars to be made in child labor.

CASE Is FLIMsY.
People at Fairmont are Beginning to
Doubt the Guilt of Siegel Parker
Arrested Here.

A special from Fairmont has the
following to say about E. S Parker
who was arrested by Chief Price
charged with murder:
The brother and cousin of John
G. Wright, who was killed last No
vember at Belington. and for whose
murder E. s. Parker was arrested
at Morgantown came to Fairmont
today. No officer has come for Par
ker vet and it is even limited around
that it is not positively known that
one will come.
Parker still declares he is not
guilty and that he can prove an
alibi that can't be got around.
Parker says he does not think
when it is made known to the officers
of the county of Barbour what flimsy
charges are made against him, that
he will be taken away.
The brother and cousin of the
dead man have no proof against Par
ker. 1t is said. except Cade's state
ment. They wanted some of the
State officers here to go to the jail
and pump" the prisoner, but they
all declined
1t appears now that very few per
sons who know the details of the
case think that Parker is guilty.

ANOTHER CRIME.
Fayette County Adds Another
Chapter to Grisly Record.

Lone Woman Terribly Assaulted and
House Robbed-She is Left for Dead
on the FIoor-She has Recovered
Enough to tell Her Story and the
william has Been Lodged in Jail.
UNIoNTowN, March 6.-Lying
across rickety old bed, in pool OF
blood from her many wounds, Miss
Anna Stephenson, a housekeeper for
Samuel Ruscofski miner living
near Brownsville, was found by
Buscofski on his return from his
days work.
The woman was unconscious and
had lain all day with cut help on the
bed where she had fallen from the
loss of blood from the wounds in
flicted by her assailant, John Alb
bot. Doctors aroused her sufficient
ly for her to tell the story of how she
had been assailed by Abbott.
She said soon after l1uscofski left
for his work, whick was at ) o'clock
Abbott walked into the house ano
demand that she tell where Buscof
skil.kept his little hoard of savings
The woman, terrorstriken, told him
she did not know. After search
which revealed only So, Abbott be
came so incensed that le beat heT
into state of semi consciousness
and then, it is further alleged by
her, assaulted her. Not satisfied
, with his fiendish work, he threw hel
on the floor OF the room and merci
lessly pounded and kicked her I'M
til she became unconscious. He
then fed and she managed TO drag
herself to the bed, where she lay al
day, too feeble to summon help.
The physician found her head lit
orally pounded to a pulp. All hel
front teeth were knocked out Sht
is not expected to live, She is abou
40 years old and is of English birth
Constable Carson arrested Abbott
at his home and brought him to thil
city. where he was lodged in the
county Jail. He stoutly maintain
his innocence and claims to be able
to prove an alibi as to his where
abouts at the time the outrage is al
legged to have been committed. H,

and two children on farm nea
Whitsett.
Miss Stephenson's story is sub
stantiated by the testimony of sew
eral neighbors, who swear Abbot
was seen by them entering the Bus
cofaki home at the time. The towns
people are very much excited owe
the affair and for a time there wa
talk OF taking the prisoner from tn

GLASS PEOPLE EXCITED
Threat that Machine will put
Blowers out of Business.
Meeting Being Held at Columbus to
Settle this Matter as well rs Others
Which may come up-MarilIa don't
want to Quit When Rest Shut down.

want to Quit When Rest Shut down.
H. A. Limpert Of the Marilla Glass
Comany has gone to Columbus to at
tend an important meeting Of the
window glass manufacturers. This
meeting has been called to consider a
serious hitch In the trade.
Some 10 days ago the window glass
manufacturers held meeting at the
same place. The American Window
Glass company has been threatening
to introduce machines in the making
of window glass next year. For the
past year the machines have been ex-
perimented with at the plant Of the
American Window Glass company at
Alexandria, Ind. What the machine
would do or not do has been kept an
absolute secret. There are just about
| 10000 people in the window glass
making business who are almost beg
ging to know what the machine can
accomplish
But the belief is current that the
American will next year introduce
the machine generally. At the Co.
lumbus meeting ten days ago. Presi-
dent j. A. Chambers, OF the American
company, apparently taking the bull
by the hornes, admitted that his COM
pany was getting ready to use ma
chimes. But President Chambers
then offered compromise. His ma
chimes, he said, would not make more
than the usual quota OF glass turned
out by his company by hand next year
| II the manufactures would agree 10
put out their fires by May. President
Chambers combine controls the out
put practically, Of the Independent
Window Glass Company, and that of
the Federation Window Glass COM
paDy-the three concerns being con-
sidered as constituent parts Of the
same combine. But there are other,
independent manufacturers, that
must be reckoned with.
These independent manufacturers
insist on running their plantsup TO
June Is. Moreover, the independent
manufacturers assert that the ma
chine threat of President Chambers is
but bluff, and that he is merely cal
ling a halt on the manufacture of
glass and Of 100000 boxes held In
stock by associated companies that he
can control Thus the Columbus
meeting, simmered down, will simply
mean whether the Independent win
dow glass manufactures Of the coun-
try are afraid or not Of the Chambers
machine.
Mr.. Limpert will also protest
against closing when the rest Of the
factories do. His factory is co-opera-
tive. The shareholders have a vote
as to when they shut down. The
Federation wants to close early. They
promised the Marills when 1t went
into the Federation that 1T might
run for seven months. 1t Is to insist
on this that Mr.. Limpert is in Colum-
bus. He is vice president of the
Mar lila.

LAW CLASS DEFIANT
Will Not Submit to Verdict of
University Council.
Talk of a Lawyer and Court Proceed.
ings-The Verdict Which was Re-
turned In Misconduct Cases-Meet-
ing of the Glass Being Held this AT.
ternOon.

The action of the Uuiversit,
Council in regard to students which
were before it has been announced
The six students who were before
the council were not convicted OF the
offenses with which they we're charg
ed but by the fiLding of the council
the entire class is culpable.
IL is required that the class pay
$50 for repairs to the furniture
which was broken, that they sign
an apology to Judge johnson, the
faculty and Col. Frazer. The find.
ing was presented to the students
this morning They were given
twenty four hours to take the re.
CURED action.
The council held a meeting last
night TO consider the findings and
the announcement was made this
morning of what they had done.
The resolutions which the class
have to sign we're presented to them
for their signature. They were pre-
pared by the council.
A meeting of the class was held
shortly before noon but adjourned
before anything definite was deter
mined upon. They appointed a
committee which reports this after
noon.
The class is now in session. they
are expected to adjourn before very
long when their decision will be an
nounced
A talk with some Of the members
of the class reveals the fact that
they intend to fight the decision OF
the council. They say that they
will not sign the resolutions as pre-
sented to them. A lawyer is talked
of and they will take steps to right
their alleged wrongs in the courts.
One member OF the class, it is stated
dug up 800 this morning as a nucleus
of defense fund and more is TO fol-
low. The students are very much
stirred up over the matter, and will
fight to the last.
They assert that the entire class
has been held responsible for the &C
tions of few, that they are to be re-
quired TO pay damages for all the
breaking of furniture done In the last
ten years by former classes, aud that
they are required to apologize to a
man to whom they will not apologize.
Col. Frazer when asked about the
matter refused TO make any statement
but smiled at the mention of punish
ment which had been imposed on the
men against whom he had preferred
charges.
One of his friends stated that the
finding was ridiculous in view OF the
gravity of the charges, and that the
council would have done better to
have dismissed the charges entirely
rather than have brought in such a
verdict.
The case is not yet settled, and it
may be that there will be some doings
before it is over
