TIRED OF HIS LITTLE SPREE
Runaway" Canary Glad to Be eack
In the Comfort and Safety
Of His Home.

Mrs. Robert Tomlinson Of Martina
Vile has a canary that answers b
the name Of Woody, relates the Ind
annapolis News. Last fall tho bird -
capped from the cage and few away.
Immediately the whole town was
asked to keep it's f1gurative eye ca
Woody. He was reported here and
there, feeding with the town sparrowA
Mrs. B. would call up and gay that she
had seen him, but by the time hfs
owner came he was gone.
For a whole month Woody cavorted
around with the pests Of the neighber-
hood. Then dark, rainy days began
to dawn. Still Woody stayed with tho
sparrows. A neighbor called up from
the other side Of the town one day
and said that Woody was sitting
around In her trees, tho very picture
Of despair. There is little doubt that
he was thinking Of his warm cage
at home. So his owner hied herself
over to the spot and hung his cage
IN one Of the trees. Then she went
in to gossip. The rain continued to
fall and presently Woody hoped into
his cage and the tragedy was sver,
for that night he had his regular warm
spot in the dining room.

Escape From Death

Last Saturday morning, shortly after
nine o'clock, the big five-ton truck OF
the Norton-Dowler Co., driven by the
junior member of the firm, Sherman
II. Dowler, was struck by the Pennsyl-
vania railroad train leaving the Crest
at $40 at the Rio Grande venue cros-
sing and completely wrecked. A short
time before the accident happened Mr..
DoWIer started from the Tourists Gar
age for a trip off-shore. Just as he
crossed the railroad, the locomotive
struck the rear of the truck, whirling
it around and ripping off the hood and
body which were carried some distance
up the track. Mr.. Dowler was hurled
violently to the bed of the truck gus
tanning some severe bruises and scratch
ers, but fortunately escaped with his
life. He was IN imminent danger of
being hurled under the train by the
force of the impact. Charles Burk,
who lives nearby, was the first person
to reach Mr.. Dowler and pulled him
out of the wreckage. Mr.. Dowler took
the matter cody, and said: "That's

year man gets about $1,000. Congress
cut down the s240 bonus to s12O,
which Is included in the 1870 that

Because of the low salaries paid
policemen In the District, there have
been wholesale designations. with
skilled mechanics making a weekly
wage Of anywhere from S45 to $40,
the policeman's salary has not kept

the actions OF several citizens who

him twice by colleges in honor OF mis-
work DR.. Van Schaick before COM

the pastor of a New York Universal

and IL was his training with that
clergyman that gave him the neces-
sary knowledge of pulpit work. Most
of DR.. Yah Schaick's enemies have
fought him on the ground that they
thought a clergyman was not the
proper person to be District Com

a graduate of a theological seminary,
it is said, will not change their
opinion.
