BABE ASLEEP IN TENT

Three-year-o John w. Wilson, jr.,
of 119 Watching avenue, Montclair,
is mighty lucky little boy.
Asleep In tent on the front lawn
of his home, Johnny received a 3s-
calibre bullet in his side, and all the
harm that was done was the forma-
ton of a tiny black and blue spot to
mark an almost painless wound.
There is little mystery connected
with the shooting. Nobody was try
ing to murder the little boy or any
thing of that sort. 1t was only u
careless marksman who fired the shot
that struck Johnny. The ball was
spent before 1t hit the boy.

Refrigerator CARS.
Tho First One, Running From Ogdens.
burg, N. ", to Boston, Was
Voted a Great Success.

The refrigerator car was never in
vented, but just fixed up" 1t was
the idea of a New England railway
man who needed some such thing as
far back as 1851.
In June Of that year the first refrig-
orator car is said to have made its
trip from Ogdensburg, N. Y, to Bos-
ton. The car owed its origin princt
pally to the fact that the farmers near
Ogdensburg, who made great deal
of butter, were unable to ship it ex-
cept in cold weather.
A railroad man named Wilder, at
that time in charge Of the through
freight, thought it would be a good
idea to rig up IAN icebox on Wheels"
and he told this to the president of the
read, who gave orders that the mas
ter mechanic should plan several of
them,
At this time farmers were receiving
only II cents pound for their butter.
The iced car was loaded with eight
tons Of it, sent through and allowed
to stand in Boston till the product was
sold. It brought II cents a pound
after paying all expenses and COM
missions, and the plan was voted
success. In short time the road had
regular service on, using a number
Of cars, and the idea spread rapidly.
Wilder did not patent his idea, but
allowed it to be used by whoever so
desired.-St. Louis Republic.
