New-York tribune., 1922-10-13

The young Fox, who had crept into
barrel back of Farmer Browns hem
house and thought himself very
clever and smart, had sudden and
unpleasant end put to his thoughts.
Right in the midst of them a dread
full sound filled his ears. At least it
was dreadful sound to him. 1t was
the great voice Of Bowscr the Hound.
The young Fox didn't knew What
1T meant, but it struck terror to his
neart just the same. He was sure
that Bowser hadn't seen him, and so
Tor minute or two he couldn't be-
heve that all this noise Bowser was
making had anything to do with him.
You see he hadn't thought of the
scent he had left in his tracks around
Farmer Browns henyard.
Now what had happened was this:
Bowser had lazily shuffied over to
the henyard to find out if he could
why the hens had been making such
a terrible fuss. He, suspected they
had seen Hawk. They were forever
being foolishly frightened. He didn't
expect to see anybody around that
henyard, and he wasn't the least dis
appointed when he got there to see
nothing at all out of the way.
But BoVser doesn't depend much
on his eyes. He depends much more
on that wonderful nose of his. So
to make sure that all was we'll he
began to sniff about. Close to the
henyard fence that wonderful nose
was filled with scent that made
Bowser tingle with joy and excite
ment clear to the tip of his tail. II
was the scent of Fox. He knew in
stantly why those hens had squawked
and cackled SO. He knew that thew
had seen that Fox.
With his nose to the ground
Bowser leaped forward, sending his
great voice rolling far across the
Green Meadows. Every one who
knew Bowser and heard that voice
knew exactly what it meant. Thew
knew that he had found the trail of g.
Fox, and that it was very fresh trail,
a trail easy to follow. Sammy jaw.
over In the Old Orchard, screamed
with excitement. You know Sammy
had been watching all the time. II
was he who had advised the ypun~
Fox to go up there and see those
hens. He had hoped that there would
be excitement, and now he was en-
ioving it as only Sammy can. You
know there are some peopIe who
really DO enjoy seeing other people
in trouble.
Along past the l,enhouse and
around the corner raced Bowser. bay-
ing with excitement and the ioy Of
the chase. He expected a long run.
3 run that would take him far away.
New-York tribune., 1922-10-13

and IN which he would have to match
his wonderful nose against the clever
wits of Fox. That scent was so
strong that he didn't have to keep his
nose to the ground all the time. He
would put it down, sniff then raise,
his head and send his great voice
across the Green Meadows as he
raced forward. He did this Just be-
fore he reached the old barrel back
of the henheuse. The scent was
stronger than ever, and Bowser ran
faster.
But when he put his nose down
again there was no Fox scent. That
was queer. Bowser stopped abrupt
~. and began to run back and forth
ON each side with his nose to the
ground. What had happened to that
Fox! What new trick was this
There wasn't even hint of that Fox
smell.
Then Bowser, like the wise dog
that he is, turned and ran back to
the place where he had last sinelied
that scent. The instant he found it
ne once more turned and this time
ne kept his nose to the ground AZ
he followed it. 1t lead him straight
to the hole In the end Of that barre,
Bowser put his nose in and took one
good sniff. That was enough. That
Fox was in that barrel. Bowser
stopped baying and began to bark
IN great excitement. He barked as
last as he could get breath enough.
And inside that barrel a yaunp
Fox shiyered and shook and realized
the mistake he had made. He was
trapped! True, Bowser couldn't ger
INTO that barrel, but neither could
he get out.

Myers stated. He also, explained that

restrained from furnishing evidence
from the private records for criminal
prosecution.
Mr.. Myers also informed the cred

Mrs. Giberson was said to have had

IN an attempt to prove that on July 81
Mrs Giberson had led her husband to

by the bank against Giberson's account

the cashier declared had been done by

handbag after the murder. When
these letters were produced this after
noon, Mrs. Giberson, for the first time
since the trial began, showed traces of
nervousness. AT other times she main
tanned her poise, even when the pistol
found in an outbuilding of the Giber-
son home was identified as being of the
same callber as unexploded cartridges
round in the house. The testimony con-
cerning the caliber of the weapon was
by Francis .. Byrnes, formerly an am
munition inspector of the United

The courtroom was filled to capacity.
both in the morning and afternoon.
sixteen witnesses were put on the
stand by the prosecution, and much of
the evidence related to the actions of
Mrs. Giberson in the hours following
the murder. She probably will be put
on the stand to repeat the story she
told at the outset-that her husband
was slain by two robbers when he
stirred in his sleep after the intruders
had bound and gagged her.
Mrs. Nellie Bowers, Of Trenton, sis

brother disliked Hareld Ga Nun, who
