such good meal made Cubby more
and more hungry. The hungrier he got
the more he thought about trying to
catch Longbill. 1T ought to be easy
said Cubby to himself. "All / need do
is to wait until he gets his head down
close to the ground. When he has
bored hole his face almost touches
the ground. He can't see me then.
That is the time to rush him."
So Cubby began to try to get little
nearer TO Longbill Every time that
Longbill was occupied with worm
Cubby would take step or two nearer.
He wouldn't appear to be watching
Longhill Sometimes he would be look
ing another way altogether as he TOOK
a step forward.
Now. Longbill is quite as smart as
Cubby Bear All the time that Cubby
thought that Longbill didn't know what
he was doing Longbill was chuckling to
himself
"That silly little Bear thinks he's
fooling me-" thought Longbill. He
thinks can't see him when my head Is
down. He doesn't know about these
handy eyes of mine He doesn't realize
that Mother Nature placed them near
the top of my head for just such a pur-
pose as this. I can see all that is 60
ing on around me. even when my head
is down in the ground. quite as we'll as
when it isn't. That silly little Bear is
going to try to catch me. Yes sir. that
is Just what he's going to try to do.
And when he does he's going to get
surprise"
So Longbill let Cubby get nearer and
nearer. Finally he was so near that 1t
wasn't safe to let him get any nearer.
Ionebill turned his back to Cubby and
started to bore a hole in the ground
Cubby grinned. Things couldn't be bet
ter. This would be his chance to catch
Lonrbill. There he was. back to him
and busy boring hole for worm.
"I'Il wait til he gets his head way
down. III wait It'll he has that hoie
finished and has got hold of the worm. ="
thought Cubby. He will be so taken
I'D with that worm that he won't think
of anything else"
So CuhNy waited until he could see
that Longbill had got the worm. Then
Cubby Ieaped forward. There was
sharp whirr and whistle and stiff wings
brushed his very nose. Longbin the
Woodcock was gone. Cubby looked up
to see Longbill disappearing over the
tops of the alders. He blinked. he
blinked and blinked.
THAT fellow acted just as II he knew
I was going to Jump for him and Ead
waited until the very last minute, NUT
tered Cubby. But how could he have
known it with his back to me?"
Cubby went of to sit down and puzzle
over that. You see, he didn't know
about those handy eyes OF Longolll.

Kings Bay. Spitzbergen, June 5
R>-Eeports from Russia that wire
less messages had been picked up
from the dirigible Italia stating
that she had landed on Franz Jo-
SET Land are meeting with much
skepticism among the searchers al
Kings Bay.
The theory supported by Lieu
tenant Luetzow Holm, Norwegian
1iier. who is now en- route to North
'spitzbergen to take up the search
from the air, is that the Italia de-
seconded on the polar ice north of
Spitzbergen and that there was very
little chance she was blown to
Franz Josef Land.
There is a possibility that dog
teams will be sent to Northeast
Land across Henlopen Straits from
West Spitzbergen to explore this
seldom visited region.
The Hobby. with Lieutenant Holm
aboard. was believed to have reach
ed Virgo Bay this forenoon and it
was thought probable that the Nor
wegian plane would make re-
connaissance since the weather was
favorable for flying.

TROLLEY CAR HIT
Twice BY AUTOS
One Man Crew Firmly Convinced
It Is His Night

Herman Levine of 81 Camp street,
employed as a motorman by the
Connecticut Co, figured in two acct
dents last night as he plotted the
Stanley street trolley car along the
line. At 9:15 O'Clock. the trolley
was sideswiped by an automobile
driven by Antoni Spoka of 276 IL
Elm street in front of 142 Hartford
avenue. and shortly after 1870. an
automobile operated by Andrew
Glenn of II Oak street struck the
trolley car a short distance north of
the junction of Hartford avenue and
Stanley street.
Officer Walter Wagner reported
that Spoka was driving south on
Hartford avenue and in trying to
avoid striking public works depart
ment sign, sideswiped the trolley
and also struck the sign. The troll
ley was proceeding north at the
time. Officer Cstaeh assisted in the
Investigation.
Glenn told Sergeant NJ. J. Flynn,
who investigated the second accl-
dent, that he was driving north on
Stanley street and in trying to pass
a sedan which was parked at the
east curb facing north. he became
excited at the approach of the troll
ley from the direction OF Francis
street, and banged into it. Levine
said he left Francis street at 1897
o'clock and was proceeding slowly
on account Of the wet condition OF
the rails. Clients car was badly
damaged but nobody was injured.

Shortly before noon, Sergeant

turned over TO Sheriff Geddes.
Transportation was by means Of a

1t was q surprise 10 those at head
quarters to see Leopold taken to

overnight inasmuch as he must be

Kings Bay, Spitzbersen. June up
The sealing vessel Hobby was
making its way toward the north
coast of Spitzbergen today bearing
a Norwegian flyer who intended to
hunt for the missing dirigible Italia
by air.
Lieut.. Luetzow-Hom with his me-
chanic- observer. Myre hoped to be
able to take off from alongside the
Hobby in seaplane to make series
OF flights in search of traces Of the
alrship. The weather was improv-
ing. but a prevailing northwest wind
might prevent an immediate start of
the flights by driving ice foes to-
ward the north coast.
Lieut.. Holm also intended to
watch the progress of some of the
Alpine troops hunting the crew of
the Italia by land. One group
headed for Mossel Bay on the
northern coast has not reached
there yet. No fear was entertained
for their safety. however, because
it was known that travel over the
route was dangerous and 1t was
thought that they might have under
estimated the time it would take
them to reach the bay.
The ice breaker Rraganza today
was approaching the northern en-
trance to Hinlopen strait. The
Italia was headed for that region
when the base crew lost contact with
her on May e5. The ice was break

Oregon. She remained there until
two years ago when, at the request
of her father. she was returned to
Alaska on the Boxer. 1t was her
first experience in her homeland af-

some question as to what reaction
she might make to an environment
wholly strange to her.
Dolly was recently married to Will

and is living at Goose bay, about 20
miles from the head of the Hanna
