A Deserter From The Army.

On January LIST young man
was arrested in this city for
peddling cigars without Ii
cense. The circumstance sur
ronding the case seemed sus-
picious other than the mere
fact of his selling the cigars, as
he was Offering them at a re-
diculously low price. That he
wasn't what he represented him
self to be was suspicioned from
the fact hat he gave two names,
that of Mitchell and Jones.
From what he could learn from
the prisoner, Sheriff Waddell
concluded he was a deSerter, and
wrote the Adjutant General Of
the Army. Monday morning he re-
ceived the gentleman's pedigree
which fits exactly. He is, Will
lam c. Henry, deserter from
Fort Morgan, Alabama, June Is,
1912.

Statue That sprane Up In Night.


In London, where one of the most
luxurlant and beautiful parks In the
world, the Kensington Gardens, Is a
vast playground for children, the fair
les own month Of May was celebrated
this year with a rare gift. A statue OF
Peter Pan, the boy who would not
grow up, prettily lifting on an ancient
tree-trunk and blowing his pipe, which
brings the birds and squirrels and
field mice out to listen, was set up In
a single night and when the little
children came next day to play they
believed that the beautiful image OF
the little boy who plays with them
at make-believe was left by the fairy
folk themselves. And who would be
so sadly grown up as to tell them any
different?
