WOMAN, HOPING TO SEE DAUGHTER IS MURDERED (CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONE) er had kidnaped his daughter Dorothy Monday. Mrs. Flener, anxious over the fate of her child, begged him to ’ bring the little girl back but he refused, his brother said. Yesterday Flener appeared at his brother's home wheYe Mrs. Flener was staying and after an apparent reconciliation, the husband and wife drove toward West Chicago. Roy Flener said his brother had mistreated Mrs. Flener for three years, refusing to work and depending on his wife’s earnings for his support . “I tried to stop her from going away with Clarence,” Roy said, “but he had promised to take her to Dorothy and she said to me ‘l'll do anything in the world to see my baby’." ' Flener drew a drab picture of his brother's married life and expressed no sympathy for him. He said C’arelict! had beaten his wife for three years and finally climaxed his terrorizing by kidnaping the child. Roy said Mrs. Flener had sworn out a warrant for the arrest of her bus-

— hand on kidnaping charges but Hie warrant had not yet bbeen served. In the pocket of Mrs. Flener's coal was found a bank book showing deposits of $931 hi the name of her child. Her brother-in-law said fthe had saved it, from her meager earnings so she might provide an education for the little girl. ——oWhokiale Bird Slaughter The skylark, so famous in song and story, Is a bird about two-thirds the sire of our robin. Millions of them are shot, netted nnd trapped annually and are sold In the markets of Naples for four cents apiece; In France the cost is slightly higher. Game birds are sold In markets everywhere in Europe, and In the hotels boiled birds’ eggs are passed from table to table in baskets. Bag limits are virtually unknown. 0 Natural Wonder The St. John river, draining nn area of 20,000 square miles, discharges its flood into the St. John harbor through a rocky gorge, famous in Indian lore. The famous “Reversing falls” are so called because at high tide the water of the harbor is above the level of the river and has a perceptible drop upstream. The Occurrence is unique and Is considered one of the natural wonders of the world. Advance in Photography Daylight screens have been developed to a point where it is possible to project pictures on them in the diffused daylight of a room with thoroughly satisfactory results. To do this requires projection from the rear of the screen. Darkness is required back of the screen between tlie projector and screen.
