Bedtime Stories
What Happened to Redhead
By Thornton W. Burgess
No greater gift can fortune send
Than, Just q true and loyal FRIEND
-Redhead.

1t didn't take Farmer Browns Boy
long to find out that something was
wrong, very wrong, with one of Red
heads wings. He understood then
why Redhead had been on the ground.
Very gently, he took Redhead from
the trunk Of the tree to which he was
clinging. Then he sat down and ex-
amined that poor, hurt wing.
With gentle fingers he felt that
wing all over to find out if any bones
were broken. Redhead, not under
standing, pecked at his hand once or
twice. The anxious look cleared from
the face Of Farmer Browns Boy as
he finished feeling of that wing. "It
is all whole. That is, there are no
broken bones," he declared. "The
skin is torn, and / wouldn't be sur
prised if you have strained the mus
cles little. You've broken some of
your flight feathers and that is the
reason you cannot fly. But all YOU
need is plenty of food and a safe
place in which to remain quiet. Then,
after while. you will be as good as
ever"
Then began the strangest happen
ings in all the life of Redhead the
Woodpecker. Farmer Browns Boy
took him into the house. OF course,
Redhead never had been inside that
kind of house before. 1t frightened
him. 1t frightened him very much,
But at the same time his bright eyes
didn't miss a. single thing. II ever
he should be free and we'll again,
what wonderful story he would have
to tell Mrs. Redhead and the other
birds
"They won't believe it. They won't
believe word Of it," thought he. 81
wonder what Farmer Browns Boy is
going to do to me now"
What Farmer Browns Boy did do
was to gently battle that hurt wing to
make sure that no dirt was left in the
wounds. 1t felt so good that Redhead
didn't once peck at those hands, and
somehow he gradually lost all fear.
of Farmer Browns Boy. Queer
things were happening to him, but he
couldn't help but feel that all was
for the best and would be all right
in the end
Farmer Browns Boy took him out
to the barn and put him in a box,
Then, for quite a while, Redhead
heard Farmer Browns Boy very busy
about something, saving, hammerinp
and all the time whistling. But Red
head couldn't see what was being
done.
At last the noise of the saving and
hammering ceased and Farmer
Browns Boys freckled face appeared
above the edge of the box. 1t was |
smiling, pleasant face. Gently Red |
head was lifted out Of that box and |
carried to another. 1t was one with

Wronged Husband Shields Wife
On Trial for Plot to Kill Him

he was the father of two Of her chill
dren. Her confession and that Of Rose
are attributed to the influence Of the
Rev. DR.. Burton Lee, who does mis-
sicnary work among the mountain folk
and has their confidence. He is ex-
pected to testify Monday as to condi-
sons live, which is between the Rama
pc range and the Highlands in the
neighborhood of Bear Mountain.
Johnsons endeavors to shield his
wife have the hearty cooperation Of all
his neighbors, among whom the affair
between Mrs. Johnson and Rose had
been common gossip for years. Several
of them testified to-day and the testi-
mony of all of them was as favorable
to Mrs. Johnson as the circumstance
would permit.
Johnson even went so far as to as
scrt under oath that the two children
who his wife said were Roses were his
own offspring.
A lanky mountaineer who took the
stand admitted that it was common
talk in the mountains that Ida John
son and Ed Rose were going together
He did not regard this as anything ex-
traordinary, he said
Things like that are of common
occurrence in the mountains, I sup

The mountaineer eyed his interroga-
tor coolly and replied:

tains, and from what I've heard tell
they happen in the city, too"

Mr.. Rockefeller looked the picture Of
health. He wore gray cutaway suit
of light material, tan shoes, and was so
comfortably dressed that he did not
appear to mind the heat.
Mr.. Rockefeller greeted the band and
insisted on shaking each member by
the hand. Then he invited them to sit
near the Temple of Love, where seats
had been arranged for them, while he
and his guests sat in the shade Of the
massive grape arbor. Mr.. Rockefeller
enjoyed the band concert for two
hours. At his special request the band
played medley of Southern airs, in
Guiding "Old Folks at Home" "Old
Black joe" "My Old Kentucky Home"
and others.
Applauds Enthusiastically
Mr.. Rockefeller was delighted, and
he applauded warmly. The band also
played the Barcarolle from "Tales Of
Hoffman," at his request.
"A musician is the gift Of God" re-
marked Mr.. Rockefeller, after Ernest
F. Williams had given cornet solo,
playing a fantasia by Rogers called
''The Volunteer"
Mr.. Rockefeller was so pleased that
he demanded two encores.
After the concert, which ended short
ly before five o'clock, Mr.. Rockefeller
said:
"Now boys I'm going to cut my
birthday cake" It was brought out
from the house on . tea wagon. It
was huge affair and on the top on
the mountains Of icing were eight
large candles, each representing ten
years and two small candles. In the

Gang Attacks Despite Three
Protecting the Treasures;
Used Stolen Automobile

Five bandits were foiled in their at.
tempt to hold up heavily guarded
wagon of the American Express Com
pany on Park Avenue, Weehawken
N. D., yesterday, when the driver Of
the wagon, ignoring the commands OF
an armed member OF the band who had
shot him twice, whipped up his horses
and escaped. After emptying a revol.
Yer at the driver, the robbers fled ir
a stolen car.
The wagon was driven by Jacob Frey
of Sherman Avenue, and guarded by
5ssHenry Cantrill, of $50 Mercer Street
and Arthur Batho, of 366 York Street
all Of Jersey City. Il was en- route
from Hudson Terminal in Jersey city
to the First National Bank of Gutten-
berg with 1900 in currency.
Drawn by two powerful horses who
were in slow walk as they went ur
the steep incline on Park Avenue, op.
posite Hauxhurst Avenue, the wagon
was less than quarter way up the hill
when an automobile, containing the five
men shot past, and after going a
short way, stopped. One of its occu-
pants, revolver in hand, got out of the
machine, and as the wagon came slowly
up the hill shouted to the driver and
the guards, "Hold up your hands and
get out of that wagon"
Frey responded to his command hy
bringing his whip down sharply on the
TANKS of the two horses. AS the horses
sprang forward the man who had left
the automobile lowered his revolver
and fired twice. Two bullets struck
Frey, one just below the left knee, the
other above it. The man pulled the
trigger of his weapon a third time, but
it snapped on a defective she'll.
The wagon continued on up the hill.
The armed bandit continued to fire
after it as he backed rapidly to the
waiting automobile.
AS soon as Frey had brought the
wagon to stop Cantrill jumped out,
embarrassed one of the horses and rode
to the Weehawken Police Station and
reported the attempted robbery Frey
was taken from the wagon to the North
Hudson Hospital
Detectives summoned by Cantrill
found the automobile used by the ban
dts abandoned on Palisade Avenue, in
Hackensack. 1t bore license plate No.

been used to convert the nine into an

Michael Paluso, Of 533 Adams Street,
Hoboken, the owner Of the machine, re-
ported to the police that it had been
stolen from his yard sometime before
o'clock yesterday morning.

The most democratic and the most
wonderful man we ever met" said the
members of the band as they returned
to New York. Lemonade, orangeade and
ginger ale and sandwiches were also
served. AS the band was leaving Mr..
Rockefeller insisted on shaking hands
with the men again. They congratu-
lated him on looking so we'll, and he
replied:
"Well, you know people are learning
now and what to eat, and it won't be
long before doctors will tell us how to
prolong life by many years. Why, I

years old, and he goes down to his

This evening Mr.. Rockefeller had a
small dinner party, and afterward Ar

To one of his guests to-day he said:
eff it wasn't for the passing of my

There wasn't any one that knew, and

old mountains, still stand, though.
They were beautiful in my boyhood,
and they are still beautiful"
Mr.. Rockefeller received hundreds Of
kilograms of congratulations. His
brother William also came over from
lockwood Hall to visit him.
Mr.. Rockefeller gave out shiny, new
nickels to every one he met to-day,
following his custom of late, but he
didn't give any to the band or his
guests. Possibly the supply ran out
before they arrived.
