Bedtime Stories
Farmer Browns Boy Takes Pity on Black Pussy
By Thornton w. Burgess
The lesson learned IN pain and sor-
roaU
Won't be forgotten on the morroao.
Black Pussy.

Black Pussy thought that every one
was against her, and in her heart she
was growing more and more bitter.
The days slipped into a week and
the week into three weeks, and still
she was an outcast, all because she
had been in trouble with Jimmy
Skunk. You see, that scent of his got in
her fur coat and the smell of it re-
manned there for long, long time.
So Black Pussy lived under the barn
and felt that she hadn't single
friend in all the Great World.
But she was mistaken. Her mas
ter, Farmer Browns Boy, was her
friend, just as much her friend as
he ever had been. When he had first
discovered the trouble she was in he
wondered where under the sun she
had met Jimmy Skunk and how she
could have been SO foolish as to quar-
rel with him and give him reason to
use his little scent-gun. But the next
morning, when he went down to see
striped Chipmunk, his nose soon led
him to the spot where Black Pussy
had made her sad mistake.
so this is where it happened!"
exclaimed Farmer Browns Boy. az

was down here hunting. I wouldn't
be bit surprised if she was trying
20 catch Striped Chipmunk. Probably
she startled Jimmy and he promptly
used his little gun. hope it has taught
her lesson. / do SO. She has no
business to hunt anything excepting the
Mice in the barn. I've punished her
and punished her for hunting down
here in the Old Orchard and II
hasn't done bit of good. But I
guess now she will keep away from
here for while. It serves her right
When he put the milk out for her
by the barn that night he told her
just what he thought. He scolded
her roundiy. OF course. she didn't
understand word he said, but she
understood the tone of his voice, and
that WAS enough. He, like everybody
else, was against her. And so in the
days that followed she didn't notice
that there were extra nice tidbits left
for her every time he brought her
food out.
All the time Farmer Browns Boy
was keeping watch of her and noting
how day by day the smcll of Jimmy
Skunk grew less when shc was near.
Finally it was hardly to be noticed at

PREACHER KILLS
 CATHOLIC PRIEST
Marriage Of His Daughter by Father Coyle Cause of Murder

Birmingham, Ala, Aug. 12. - Be- cause he married Ruth Stephenson, Protestant to Catholic, the Rev. James E. Coyle, for many years pas tor of Ste Pauls Roman Catholic church here, was shot and fatally wounded last night by the Rev. Ed win R. Stephenson, a Methodist Epis- copal preacher and father of the girl.
 The shooting occurred in the Cath olic rectory, and was the climax of several months dissension The preacher asserted that Father Coyle and other Catholics were trying to convert Stephenson's daughter.
 After he had shot Father Coyle three times with an automatic, the preacher walked to the court house. where he surrendered to the sher1n, confessing the staying of Father Coyle. A deputy sheriff said stephen son told him of shooting Father Coyle three times, and that he did 1t be- cause the priest had married his daughter to Catholic.
 The preacher refused to make any other statement on the shooting.
 According to Fred McDuffe, dep- uty sheriff, the Rev. MT. Stephenson called at the sheriff's office about twenty minutes before the shooting and asked for search warrant for his daughter. He was informed that it was too late for issuance of search warrant and that he would have to wair until morning. He re- marked that that might be too late. MT. Stephenson was not member of the Southern Methodist church" said Rev. pr. Robert Echols, presid- ing elder of the Birmingham district ] of the Methodist Episcopal church south. He was formerly affiliated with this church but was not a reg ularly ordained minister. He preach ed frequently, but day or so ago we became dissatisfied in the manner l in which he was remaining around the court house. When I remonstrat- ed with him about 1t, he went to the Northern Methodist church and I un- derstood became affiliated" l The Rev. MT Stephenson was known at the court house as the Marrying Parson.'
 Tells of Shooting. | Birmingham, Ala, Aug. 12.-Edwir l R. Stephenson, barber and itineran preacher, who yesterday shot and killed Very Rev. James E.. Coyle, dea, of North Alabama for the catholic church and pastor of St. Pauri church, had little to say today re garding the shooting.
 T demonstrated with him for mar rying my daughter, Ruth, to a mal against whom we had lodged objec | tions," said the prisoner. T called him a dirty dog He struck me ane IT shot him."
 Father Coyle was shot on the porcf of St. Paurs rectory and died in { hospital without regaining conscious ness.
