An interesting bird is the "weav-
err" 1t seems to be fond Of max
ing enormous nests merely for the
purpose of exercise in the art OF
construction. Supply these birds
with strings and straw, and they
will use them up rapidly, and their
fabric is woven with perfectness
that is astonishing. In some coun-
tries it is the custom of the weaver
birds to colonize and build one big
fiat topped platform, two or three
yards across, which is so admirably
put together as to shed the rain as
well as any roof could do. Under
this roof they make individual peck
ct shaped nests, bringing up under
this unique structure a large and
interesting family of little weavers.
There is another bird, called the
tailor" which, instead of weaving
its nest, incloses it in big leaves and
stitches the latter together with
plant fibers, just as one would sew a
piece of cloth.

WlIcHcRAFT IN ENGLAND.
The Last of the judicial Prosecutions
and Executions.

Sir Matthew Hale, il is true, had
hanged two poor women at Cam
bridge in 1864, but a few years later
Lord Chief Justice Holt set him.
self strongly against such charges
and in every case tried before him
directed the jury TO bring in a YER
diet Of acquittal. In celebrated
trial at Guildford in l70l not only
was the supposed witch found not
guilty, but her false accuser, one
John Hathaway, was condemned to
years imprisonment and to stand
in the pillory three times. Yet,
horrible 10 relate, woman named
Hicks and her daughter, child of
nine, were hanged together at
Huntingdon on July rs, 17l6, for
raising a storm of wind in league
with the devil.
The last judicial sentence for
witchcraft in England was in 1896,
one Jane Wenham being actually
found guilty, according to the in
dictment, of "conyersing familiar
" with the devil in the form of a
cat" The Judge, however, procured
reprieve for poor old Jane, and
she was ultimately released, TO end
her DAYS in peace.
Last, the witchcraft act was re-
pealed for the United Kingdom in
the same wear. 1t was quite time,
for only nine years earlier, in 1927,
woman was brought before Cap
tain David Ross, deputy sheriff Of
Sutherland, charged with causing
her daughter to be shod by the dew
H." and so making her lame both in
hands and feet. The fact having
been proved to the captains salts
faction, the old woman was put into
a tar barrel and burned at Dornoch.
The weather being cold at the time,
we are told that she "sat composed
ly warming herself by the fire pre-
pared to consume her while the 9TH
er instruments of death were get
ting ready"
The last attempt to execute q
witch in England ended disastrously
for the perpetrators. In 1881 at
Tring two old people named Os-
borne, man and wife, being suspect
ed of witchcraft, were seized by O
crowd, stripped, cross bound and
thrown into a pond. Both died OF
this brutal treatment. But the
witchcraft act had been repealed
and, verdict Of willful murder hav-
ing been returned against one Col
ley, the chief instigator Of the as
sault, he was in due course tried
and hanged.-Cornhill Magazine.

THE OBJECTION TO John.

The Gaylords and Nelson's have
always been neighbors and intimate
friends. So when John Gaylord at
twenty-four, as fine a fellow IS ever
was, began to see what an altogeth-
err charming girl Molly Nelson was

that the parents concerned were de-

knew chat it was Understood" and
evening after evening John talked
to Molly on the front porch, often
lingering after the other Nelson's
had retired.
The surprise of the two was con-
sequently great when one evening a
shutting step was heard in the hall,
and presently Mr.. Nelson appeared
in slippers and dressing gown, can
die in hand. Quite evidently he
had gone to bed and then got up
for some purpose.
"Why, father, what is the mat
ter 2"
Molly's cheeks were burning, as
her father stood there hesitating
and eying John closely. John, lean
ing against the doorpost, where he
had stood for the last fifteen min
utes saying good night to Molly,
felt decidedly uncomfortable under
Mr.. Nelson's gaze.
In fact, it was embarrassing all
around. But John is a young man
who goes straight to the point.

WILLIE WHITLA Is
SAFE WITH FATHER
Kidnapped Lad Returned In Disguise
To Hotel In Cleve-
land.

CLEVELAND, March 22.-Littl'
Willie Whitla, who has caused th'
police OF the entire country endless
worry since he was kidnapped from
school in Sharon, Pa, last Thursday
was returned to his father at The
Hollenden Hotel here at $3.50 O'CLOCK
this evening.
In compliance with the agreement
entered into between the boys father
and an agent of the kidnapers here
today, the boy was placed on a
streetcar on the outskirts Of the city
and started to the hotel shortly after
O'Clock.
Two boys, J. w. Ramsey and Ed
ward Mahoney, recognized the lad on
the car and, taking him in charge,
conducted him to his father, who
was In waiting according to pre-
arranged plan which he had followed
at the dlctation OF the kidnapers.
The boy wandered about the hotel
lobby unannounced for several min
utes, asking bellboys for his father,
before the latter knew his son was In
the big foyer The moment the
anxious parent heard that a strange
boy was in the hotel he rushed
across the lobby, grasped the boy in
his arms and smothered his face
with kisses
Willie is In perfect health. He
says he has been well treated, and
ever since his capture has been con-
stantly indoors. He belives he was
taken from Sharon to Warren and
thence to Newcastle, Pa. It is his
opinion, exhibited in a happy school
boy way, that he was in Ashtabula
Saturday night at the time his father
was to leave his $4,000 In Flat
Iron Park.
Before retiring for the night Mr..
Whitla admitted that ne had paid
$4,000 TO the woman In the con-
fectionery store. II was In currency
The woman did not count the money
Mr.. Whitla believes the woman was
an Italian, but refuses to disclose
her Identity.
He said he received a letter yes
terday from the kidnapers at his
home in Sharon saying that II he
called at a confectionery store in the
East End OF Cleveland he would be
told how to secure his boy unharm-
cd and well fed"
Shortly after noon he left Sharon
for Cleveland. He was unaccom-
panied. His immediate family and
private detectives he apprised OF the
proposed secret meeting, but insisted
that he make the trip alone. Every
one OF them was warned that he
must be allowed to go alone, and no
attempt at capture OF the kidnapers
be made.
At o'clock In the afternoon he
went to candy store in the East
End. With him he carried the $1O,-
900, expecting that II would be de-
manded OF him there. He was met
by woman who detailed to him
the terms Of the kldnapers, With
all the eagerness OF u distracted
parent, Whltla agreed to them i'm
mediately.
His entrance to the hotel was
shroudod In secrecy. BY n pre-
vious arrangement made with the
hotel management he did not regis

has superntended the search for the
boy In behalf OF his father, was In

and detectives were beating anxious
ly.

expect the boy will be back tonight
but | cannot state positively whether
he will be returned safe and sound
Do not ask me to reveal the settle
ment. That might ruin all Of th'
plans"
For more than an hour Whitls
waited in the lobby smoking cigars
and mutterlng to himself In the
meantime Willie Whitla, the kid
naped boy, feeling comparatively
safe in the hands OF his kidnapers
was being prepared for his return 10
his father. The woman at the candy
store had done her duty. She com
municated with the captors OF the
boy and told them that the father
had hade no attempt to trace them.
The kidnapers were satisfied.
A few rods from the carlinc the
man stopped the boy. Pulling n
pair OF smoked glasses from his
pocket he adjusted them to the lads
head with the remark:
You'll look better in these"
The sides OF the black yarn cap
was pulled over the boys ears, and a
slip which Willie was to hand to the
conductor was put In the boys pock-
ct. It read:
Send this boy to the Hollenden
Hotel double quick"
With all arrangements made, and
his tracks apparently well covered,
the kidnaper took the boys right
hand in his brawny one, and they
continued briskly along toward the
carline. The lad skipped gaily
enough with his companion, the
promise OF seeing his dad and his
ma" urging him forward. They
chatted with each other. Willie
says the man told him that II any
asked him who took him to the car
line to tell them that It was "Mr.
Jones'"
Just tell them your name is
Jones, too. II you want to-" said the
kidnaper.
"All right. Mr.. Jones'" answered
Willie.
Presently car came into view,
and the mysterious Mr.. Jones drew
the the boy closer to him.
well, Willie, you're going down
town now, and you will see your pa
pretty soon" he said.
This delighted Willie. He swung
onto the car quickly, according to
the conductor. Mr.. Jones paid the
boys fare and then got off the car
and disappeared, after waving a
friendly adieu. This farewell salute
was continued until the car had dis
appeared into the inky darkness OF
the night.
The boy gazed about the car for
familiar face. He saw no one he
knew. Presently Edward Mahoney,
17-year-old boy, OF Jolly visage,
came into the car. He sat down In
the seat with the boy. Mahoney,
like most every other person in
Cleveland, had seen the lads pic
ture and recognized him,
whats your name?" he asked.
Jones'" answered Willie. true to
his kidnaper friend.
But Mahoney was not to be fooled
He called his friend Ramsey over
from another part OF the car and
showed him Willie. He suggested
that he might be the missing child.
Then Willie showed him his trans.
fer slip, saying that he would be put
off at the Hollenden Hotel, and they
were soon convinced that they had
accomplished more than all the
slcuths In the country.
The boys, now willing companions,
took Willie to the hotel, He skipped
