London, July 22.—English scien
tific circles were startled today by the
tragic death of Sir William Herdman,
world famous biologist, a few hours
before the wedding of his daughter.
,He came to London from Liverpool
to attend the wedding, stopping at a
Euston hotel.
After dinner he took a stroll, meet
ing a woman who accompanied him
to a back street hotel, a place con
taining only eight bedrooms.
“A gentleman came in with a lady
and asked for a room about 10:45 last
night," said the manager. "A few
minutes after 11 the woman rushed
downstairs and announced that her
companion had collapsed. We found
his partly dressed body lifeless.”
A few hours later, while the news
Lockjaw Takes
Second Victim
Pin Injury Fatal to Youngster
Who Loses Brave
Fight.
v —-,
James May. the 14-year-old boy who
has been lying critically ill in the
University hospital with lockjaw for
a week, died Monday night at mid
night, after his mother and father
had left the hospital.
For several days doctors did not
expect him to live, and express sur
prise that he fought it off as long
as he did. His family was with him
earlier in the evening, but he was
alone when the end came.
The boy stepped on a pin July 11.
He paid no attention to the small
wound and infection set in, finally
developing Into lockjaw. The body
wa;s taken to the N. P. Swanson
funeral home.
Young May's is the second death in
Omaha from lockjaw within a week,

» There ought to be
another name for
i such a vinegar
Til as Heinz.
It is so different from what gener
ally poses as vinegar.
Vinegars vary just as teas, coffees,
and spices vary.
The difference between Heinz Vin
egars and the ordinary kinds is so great
they seem to belong to different classes.
And the average family uses so little,
that the difference in cost is negligible.
You will never again use
vinegars that arc "just
sour” once you learn that
vinegar can be as rich,
mellow and delicious as
Heinz Vinegars.

The Home in the Big Maple Tree.
There was no doubt about it; Hap
py Jack Squirrel and Mrs. Happy
Jack had come over to the big maple
tree by Farmer Brown’s house to live.
They were making their new home
in a big, dead, hollow branch half
way up in the tree. Farmer Brown's
boy was delighted.
Of course, the new home didn't re
main a secret very long. Some of
the little people of the Green Forest
i»nd the Green Meadows manage to
keep their homes secret, but others
do not, and do not even try. It

wasn’t long before sharp eyes dis
covered that Happy Jack and Mrs.
Happy Jack were spending all their
time in or near that big maple tree.
Most of the feathered people knew
about that hollow branch, and right
away some ot them guessed that
Happy Jack and Mrs. Happy Jack
had taken it for their home. It took
only a little spying to make sure of
this. Then it was only a little while
before everybody knew about It.
Perhaps I shouldn't have said that
everybody knew about It. Shadow the
Weasel didn’t know about it. No one
ever tells Shadow news of this kind.
No one is mean enough for that. He
has to find out such things for him
self. But everybody else knew about
It, and It caused a lot of talk. You
see, before this. Happy Jack had al
ways lived In the Green Forest.
Chatterer the Red Squirrel turned
up his nose. You know. Chatterer
and Happy Jack do not get along to
gether at all. "It’s the most foolish
thing I ever heard ot,” declared Chat
terer. "I’ve always said that Happy
Jack has very little common sense.
He was born In the Green Forest and
has always lived In the Green Forest.
That Is where he belongs. You mark
my words, no good will come of mak
ing his home outside the Green For
est.”
Sammy Jay chuckled. "The trouble
with you. Chatterer, Is that you are
envious. Right this minute you are
wishing that you had thought of that
hollow branch In the big maple tree
for your own home.”
Chatterer flow Into a rage right
away. He declared that It was no
such thing, and said a lot of unpleas
ant things, too. to Sammy Jay. But
Sammy only chuckled the more. He
knew by Chatterer's bad temper that
he had touched very close to the
truth. And go he had. Chatterer
really and truly waa wishing that he
had thought of that hollow branch.
Happy Jack and Mrs. Happy Jack
paid no attention to the remarks,
which they couldn’t help but hear.
They were more than satisfied with
their new home. Mrs. Happy Jack
soon had a snug, comfortable bed,
and declared it was the nicest home
she had ever known. She spent a
great deal of time in it. She came
out only long enought to eat her
meals and to get a little exercise.
You see, though that home was no
secret, there was a secret In it.

BIG 42-INCH FISH
Fremont, Neb., July 22.—L. C.
Gunderson, secretary of the board of
regents of the University of Nebraska,
suffered the shock of his life last
Saturday when he hauled in a fish
from the waters of the Elkhorn river
measuring 42H Inches in length.
Mr. and Mrs. Gunderson were camp
ing south of West Point and the
usual haul was made on a set line.
The specimen had a snout that meas
ured 12 H inches. Its pecular shape
and "shovel mouth" completely puz
zled Mr. Ounderson, and for a time
was somewhat in doubt whether the
catch was fish or beast.
Research disclosed the specimen ts
a member of the “paddler" family,
found usually In the waters of the
Mississippi. For some reason or
other, probably due to the high
waters, the fish left native haunts
and Journeyed northwest via the Mis
souri and Elkhorn.
