I knew the hunters-that you had told of this morning-had come. and had shot my foot.
 For a while I feared I would not be able to walk another step, but fear of the hunters, who I knew would come after me if I stopped, made me run along on my three good feet But oh, the pain!
 Well, hid here and there, resting few minutes at time. But every step I took carried me towards home and you, Mamma dear. And at last after a race for life-I reached here to find you gone. An. how lonely it was without you. But I could go no farther, and crept into the house and waited for you. And soon you came just as you always do. Can you for give me, Mamma?"
 After you have fully forgiven your self, my son, for your past disobedi- ence, and made up your mind to be good and obedient like your sister and brother, then you have my forgive ness. But this lesson has taught you to listen to your elders in future. The next time you might not get off so easily, for you might receive the shot in a vital place."
 There will be no next time, Mamma" sighed Naughtie, who from that day became such a good little fox that he was called by his right name.
 And his good mother and the good neighbors nursed the wounded Naugh- tie till he was sound and well again. And then the foxes moved still farther into the forest where hunters and dogs would not molest them. Had not God given them the right to live?

ARRESTED FOR
PETTY THEFTS
Edward MacFarlans Accused
OF Recent Rebberies.

Edward MacFarlane, a fourteen
year-old youth, of 81 Smith street,
was arrested today by Detective Ser
geant Huff as being responsible for
three recent robberies of a petty
nature. These are that of the Eagle
Athletic Club house, in King street,
which occurred last night; the enter
ing of the newsstand at High and
Smith streets Monday night, and
that of the Fleischmann Company in
King street last week.
When arrested young MacFarlane
had the keys to the club house and
the newsstand in his pockets. He
does not admit the ~robberies. His
alleged venture into the Eagle club
house Melted him a few cigars. His
method of entering these places Is
said to be through transoms If the
doors Of inner rooms are locked after
he has gained egress to premises.
His reputed Fleischmann company
experiment Melted him nothing and
at the newsstand he is said to have
secured some candy, cigarettes, etc.
The boy has been picked up by the
police before on similar charges.

and in the center the large pennant
given by the EVENING NEWS to

the center of the hall around which
American and Italian flags were fes-
TONED.
The crowd numbering nearly five
hundred, began to arrive early In the
evening and enjoyed dancing until
nearly 1870 O'Clock, when a supper
march to the balcony was held. Sam
uel D'Angelo and Miss Lund led the

fifty couples. The affair was con-
coded to be n of the finest ever

of an Italian society. 1t is estimated
that nearly $500 was realized from
the event.

COMMISSION
BILL SIGNED
Governor Wilson Finds No
Flaws in the Measure.

Trenton, April 26:-Governor
Wilson signed only one bill yester-
day, the bill authorizing cities to
adopt the commission form of gov
eminent.
The Gvernor's time was taken up
with other matters, among which
was his meeting with the State Court
of Pardone, of which he Isl e-officio
the president.
Governor Wilson announced yes
terday, however, that his interpreta-
ton of the constitution is that the
Governor is entitled to all the time
he desires after the close Of the Leg
islature for the consideration of bills.
This will give him unity the Fourth
of July to dispose of the immense
amount of work that the Legislature
left on his desk.
The signing of the commission gov
eminent bill was witnessed by quite
a number of the friends of the meas
ure. The pen with which the bill
was signed was presented to Owen
Moon, Jr., who announced that he
would in turn present it to the yren-
ton Chamber of Commerce.
No Flaw In Bill.
The report that there was a flaw
in the bill relating to the number of
votes required to secure the adop-
ton Of the new form of government
by any municipality was found to be
incorrect, The official copy of the
bill, designating thirty per cent. as
the required number, was found to
be just as everybody understood it
to be.
Governor Wilson has announced
that he will set aside one day for
public hearings on measures where
hearings are requested. About thir-
ty such requests have been received.
These hearings will probably be held
in June after the governor returns
from his western trip.
Program For the Week.
Governor Wilson has a busy week
ahead of him. This afternoon he
will go to New York, where he will
be a guest at the dinner to be given
by President Alderman to the mem
bers of the Senate. On Friday Gov
ernor Wilson will leave for Column
bia, S. c., where he will deliver an
address to the Southern Press Asso-
citation.
He will return to Trenton on the
following Monday, and will start on
his far west trip on the following
Wednesday.

considered and the matter of member
ship in the Brotherhood was taken
up. The missionary committee will
begin active work toward raising the
$25 which the Brotherhood pledged to-
ward the building fund of the State

RECORDER HAS
A NEW COURT
Taking Care of Juvenile
ICases--Go0d Results.

Since assuming the duties of
recorder on January 1 Henry w.
Kehoe has been conducting a sort of
subsidiary or Juvenile court In cor
nection with the usual criminal cases
which come before him. In most
cases the lads, for there have been
few If any girls, to come before him
have been released on the charges
which have been preferred against
them and have been instructed to re-
port at his law Office at 338 State
street every Saturday night.
Over Twenty Cases.
He has had twenty-five of these
cases SO far. Most of them have
been petty larceny affairs. A num-
Der of children are now reporting to
him every Saturday night. When
he becomes satisfied that the child
Is resolved to do right in the future
he discharges him. In making the
petty thefts the boys usually have a
desire to get hold of something
which they can sell for a few pen
MES to buy candy or similar petty
articles. Recorder Kehoe has ex-
planned to them his willingness to
give them small amounts of money
for things that they might need If
they will come to him rather than
go somewhere and steal some wire
or other junk and sell 1t for q few
pennies, as many of them have done.
Wanted to Make Touch
He draws the line in some cases
as the following incident. One of
his young proteges, If they can be
called such, came into his office re-
Gently and asked for a loan of
fifteen cents. He was asked what
he wanted the money for and told
the recorder that "Me and two
friends want to go to the th~e-ater."
1t is needless to say that he didn't
get the money.
One Proved I~ncorrigibIe.
Out Of the twenty-five cases which
he has handled in this manner Re-
corder Kehoe states that he has had
only II boy who proved incorrigi-
BILE. This boy, about fourteen years
old, the recorder took so much inter-
est in that he even went to the ex-
tent Of buying him a new suit of
clothes and shoes. Later the boy
came and told him that he wanted to
see some relatives In Jersey City.
The recorder gave him carfare which
the boy took and spent for candy
and similar articles, stncidently sell
ing the new clothes which the re-
corder had given him. Later he left
for parts unknown and is now under
stood to be in Chicago, where he is
supposed to have beaten his way on
a freight car.
Recorder Kehoe regards his exper-
iment with the boys as a success,
however, and will continue to handle
similar cases In the same way.
