Dash For Freedom Halted by Bullet

Boston Billy’s Spectacular Attempt to Beat Prison Rap Is Foiled. Albany, N. Y. —Boston Billy Wil limns otherwise James Francis Monaghan, ex-street corner tough boy of Worcester, Mass., almost kept his promise recently “to beat the rap.” The rap was fifty years in prison, am) the man who police say netted •I.iMMHMMf in thefts and ended up with a cash capital of a sawbuck took an other desperate chance in the series of dramatic episodes he has packed into his twenty-six years. First tie kicked down a deputy sheriff while the train in which he was being returned to prison was Being transferred here, and then, temporarily freed ot handcuffs, seized the sheriff’s pistol, smashed with it a car window in the washroom and tried to crawl out. Another guard, a Nassau county detective, drew his revolver and fired as Monaghan tried to scramble over the shattered glass. Furrows His Scalp. The bullet tore a furrow in Monaghan’s scalp and he fell back to the washroom floor with the cry, “You’ve got me this time.” The bullet, fired at an angle, sped on, drilled through the steel wall of the pullman car and flattened itself against the opposite side of ftie berth in which a woman and ner baby were sleeping. Neither was hurt. Leaping to his feet, Monaghan fought like a caged rat, in spite of his wound. As he fought the detective a third guard who had been on the platform rushed in. A blow from a blackjack ended the unequal struggle, and the handcuffs were snapped once more on the criminal’s wrists. A short time later, his head bandaged. Monaghan lay in his cell in Dannemora prison, Clinton, his dream of freedom still a dream. Boston Billy is the thief and gang leader who committed the SIOO,OOO jewelry robbery in the home of Jesse Livermore at King’s Point, L. L. in 1927. Brought to Mineola. “Boston Billy” warned the authorities they would not keep him long. The white enameled bars of the Nassau county jail kept him, however, and after J a hunger strike the thief set fire to a mattress in his cell. This also failed to lead to freedom. Brought to triak he was .convicted and sentenced to half a century in Sing Sing. In Sing Sing Monaghan repeated his threats and balked at prison discipline. Finally he was transferred to Dannemora, where it was believed his chances for escape were less. Then Monaghan’s alleged accomplice, Edgar Kane, former chauffeur for Mr. Livermore, was arrested in Wisconsin and “Boston Billy” promptly advised District Attorney Elvin N. Edwards of Nassau county and Capt. Harold R. King of the county police that he “had his” and was ready to spill everything. Police say they now realize this was merely a trick on Monaghan’s part to get out of prison and make a break for freedom. Asked on the witness stand about his confession Implicating Kane, Monaghan denied everything. Questioned as to whether he had not said Kame was involved. Monaghan smiled sweetly andT replied: “1 did not.” On his way back to his cell in the cellar of the courthouse he remarked to his guards: “Well, I don’t want to send another poor devil to jail.” Heads for Prison.

Precocious Precisian Corrects Playmates When Caught In Gram- , matical Errors. Birmingham. < Ala. —Just at the age when other children in the neighborhood are content with stories in colored pictures and Mother Goose jingles, Howard Young, four, of Birmingham, Is completing the reading of his thirtieth book. The book is a reader suitable for a fourth grade child and contains many words that would cause an older child to stumble. Howard has been reading since he was three, according to his parents. He reads aloud, pronouncing each word distinctly. When he hits an unfamiliar one be repeats it syllable by syllable until he has mastered it. When he comes to a word whose meaning he does not understand, it is explained to him with illustrations fr<»m every-day life.

mora in handcuffs. Because of his reputation and repeated threats. Sheriff William R. Strohson took unusual precautions. He had Sergt. John Smith of the Nassau county police assigned along with Detective Arthur Boyce and Deputy Sheriff Frank Davis. While the train was being switched from the upper to the lower level at Albany, Monaghan asked to be permitted to go to the washroom. Boyce was on the platform walking up and down. Smith was standing near the open door of the puilman to guard against a break, and Davis after unlocking the handcuffs walked behind Monaghan to the washroom. At the door the criminal turned suddenly. kicked Davis in the stomach, grabbed his gun, hurled it through the window and was trying to follow when Sergt. Smith rushed in. his pistol drawn, and fired twice. One shot took effect. NO KISSES WANTED *AMT TO ' "DO MOT HISS ME" Jane Knight of Newark, N.

In his father’s library Is stacked on a table a high pile of books. These are Howard’s, and each is marked with the date it was begun and finished. Examination showed that Howard averaged a book every three days. The group includes a variety of primers recommended by school authorities for first, second and thirdgrade children, and numbers of supplementary readers. Among the titles are “Reynard Fox,” “Windmill and the Wooden Shoes,” and James Baldwin’s “Fairy Readers.” Howard’s father estimates that the child has read 4,000 pages. The “word method” was used tn instructing the child. The first word in the primer was “flag,” which appeared under a picture of a flag. When he bad definitely learned the word and Its meaning he was taught the separaie tetters of the word. Aftei he had learned a number of words.

In bis conversation Howard shows evidence of his unusual mental development He seldom makes a grammatical error and he uses words that the average child of that age has not learned. When Howard hears his playmates make an error in speech he is quick to notice it. When he recently heard a small chum say “that’s a good ’un.” he informed him that he should have said “good one” instead. He even corrects his elders when necessary.

I HOW TO LIVE | | LONGER | JOHN CLARENCE FUNK | TRY IT HAVE yon ever tried a winter va- j cation? Some of you have prob- I ■ ably “gone South.” or taken a • I ‘cruise.” or eyen “followed spring I around the world” tn the winter. In I ’ which case you have been extremely | fortunate and doubtless have had a ■ wonderful time. But the present dis- | ■ eussion concerns a winter vacation. | i not a vacation in the winter season. i The two things can be entirely dis- i ; ferent. Each year winter resorts are be- i coming more and more fashionable. I I Tohoganning, skiing, skating and : snow-shoeing tn the northern woods ■ are quite the things to do these r ' days. But aside from the so- ■ Lcial gesture Involved in such a pilgrimage. it is one of the most mag- i nificent opportunities you can give to ■ your laxly. Fortunately one does not have to 1 spend any more, and often not as much, on a vacation of this kind as he is compelled to spend on the more I conventional journey to the shore or ’ mountains in the hot season. For the greater proportion of the ’ population in the United States and for practically all of the people in Canada, winter is either at ones back door or at most only a few hundred miles distant. Therefore, instead of grumbling about it. step out into it and put it to use. The winter vacation is one of the best ways to do this. Those who have not spent days in the winter woods plowing through glistening snow, or are ignorant of the thrills of winter sports have something to live for on the score of amusement alone. It is not possilje even to suggest the genuine delights that are con nected with an outing of a week or ten days in the December or January woods. And. as a matter of fact, one does not need the background of a formal winter playground to experience the joys of wintertime. AU one really requires is a good companion and the will to make the most out of the beauty and life-building quali- ; ties that winter offers. I To the many who are looking for a new thrill, try a real winter va<-ation. The physical benefits from an outing of this character will have to be experienced in order to be appreciated. ! So. no matter how healthy you are. put, the winter vacation on your schedule. And see what happens “You’ll be surprised!” * * • BEAUTY THE desire for personal beauty <s almost as deep-seated as for life itself. Women and men fortunately take tite biblical statement that “God made man in his own image” as a literal fact It follows, that to develop personal attractiveness or to keep that which nature bountitully bestowed is a most natural objective. In these days of “service” beauty has not been overlooked. And this is as it should be. Beauty salons and barbc, shops abound. And millions of dollars annually, through them, are taken from our pockets and given to those whom we believe can make us more pleasing to our mirrors and to the rest of the world. Who would ■ have It otherwise? Nevertheless, when it comes to buy- ! ing beauty, humanity is very prone to i be gullible. One causes a phantom j but with no more effort than to reach I into the pocket and take out money. It is here that a fair objection may be raised. A very misleading statement is this one: “Beauty is only skin deep.” Don’t believe IM Not even for a moment Beauty is much deeper than that. In fact, beauty goes into the very heart of one. Certainly, the set ot your features, the cut or condition of your hair and the style of your clothes all play their part in your general appearance. But one can have the best of all these things and still lack that essential attractiveness that is only to be found in abounding good health. Dull eyes, sluggish blood and brain, an ! lastingly tired body, are not the ■things that make for beauty. And i this, no matter how beautiful you I may happen to be. Incidentally, no amount ot rouge or hair-waving for the women, and no amount of shaving and massaging for the men can give you what you tack. As auxiliaries to beauty? Yes. But as a foundation for it? Positively no! Red cheeks and lips, sparkling eyes, a sprightly step and a keen brain are not to be got from beauty specialists i or the lotions they offer for sale. The only things that count in this connection are fresh air, a proper amount ot wholesome f<x>d. plenty ot rest, sufficient exercise, regular alimentary habits and a cheerful state | of mind. Patronize beauty parlors and bar- ! ber shops *y all means. Indeed if i you don’t vou will be halt dead, tor . your conceit will be gone. But “patronize” the rules of health more. Therein lies beauty.

Height of Cloud Banks Shown by New Device An Improved ceiling height indicator that has just been developed simplifies the problem of ascertaining just how high cloud banks are hanging, and therefore how high airplanes may tly and still be able to see the ground. It consists of a triangular-shaped scale mounted on a galvanized pole with a manually operated pointer. Some 500 feet from this scale is the ceiling projector spot light, which is thrown on the clouds above. To find the ceiling height, the observer sights along the graduated scale, adjusting the pointer on the spot of light above, and when this is done, the pointer indicates the height of the ceiling. This instrument, which eliminates paper and pencil calculations and possible errors, at the same time speeding up the operation, has been brought out by the Graybar Electric company. Mother Tells How Milks Emulsion Saved Her Son's Life “Tn November, 191 S. I wrote you in reference to my son’s condition at that time. He had just gotten over the flu and double pneumonia and it looked as if he would never be a well boy again. His lungs were very weak and he had an awful cough. We thought he was going into consumption. He had pneumonia four times. This had taken all of his vitality and left his lungs in a very bad shape. “I saw Milks Emulsion advert'ised in the Birmingham News, got a large bottle and gave it to my son. It did him so much good that I kept on giving him Milks Emulsion until he had j taken 125 bottles and now I am very proud to tell you that my boy is a i well, strong young man, 18 years old. and in excellent health.
