From Family of Famed Musicians
Engelbert Roentgen (.oii&id
ered One of ^ orld s
Greatest "Cellists.
Engelbert Roentgen, guest conduc
tor of the Omaha symphony orches
tra, who is to direct the concert at
the Auditorium Thursday night, has
had an interesting musical career.
He is a member of a noted musical
family. His grandfather was for
many years concert master of the
Owendhaus orchestra in Leipsic. His
father is a well known composer and
director of the conservatory at Am
sterdam, and his mother was a promi
nent Swedish concert violinist, while
his brother, Julius, attained promi
nence as a member of the famous
KneiscI quartet which played in
Omaha a number of years ago.
Roentgen, who is regarded as one
of the world's great cellists, began
his studies at the age of S and con
tinued for a number of years under
the best masters of Europe. As a
member of the Roentgen trio he has
toured Europe with his father and
brother, and as solo cellist with the
Tonlialle orchestra at Zurich, the
opera and the Philharmonic orches
tra In Vienna he won fame.
In 1916 lie was invited to join the
Damrosch orchestra in New York,
where he continued until 1916, when
he joined the field artillery of the
Seventy-seventh division and engaged
in several important battles in the
world war. As a valuable souvenir
of his wai service. Roentgen has a
cello, which he played in the war
camps of France, which is entirely
covered with autographs of his com
pany and of famous generals, Includ
ing Pershing. President Wilson and
Margaret Woodrow Wilson. On the
sides he carved his war diary. This
cello, which Roentgen values at 610.
000, was displayed in the Burgess

Following his release from the
army he toured Europe with the

Lad Breaks Down
at Likelihood of
Birthdav in Jail
j
Youth Convicted of Man
daughter While Speeding
Broken Hearted hy
Punishment.
A frail boy, huddled in tlie corner
of a cell in the county jail, cried
heart brokenly Tuesday at the
thought of spending Wednesday, his
birthday, in prison.
The boy, Jimmy Pecker, has been
In Jail for 107 days and recently was
found guilty of careless driving by a
jury in District Judge Fitzgerald’s
court. The accident which caused
Jimmy's imprisonment resulted in the
death of Thomas Healy, 4.
Jimmy's youth—he is only 19—and
his previous good record for Indus
triousness and faithfulness led Judge
Fitzgerald to favor a parole for the
boy. llut objections raised by the
father of the accident victim have
led him to delay the parole.
Public Defender John Baldwin's
efforts to comfort Jimmy were un
availing.
••I—i didn't mean to do anyone any
harm.” sobbed the boy.” 1 ve always
worked hard and I would do any
thing X could to help Mr. and Mrs.
Healy. I'm sorrier that the accident
happened than anyone will ever
know, and it's not because I’ve had
to suffer that I’m sorry, either. But
I'm not a criminal, an—and I can’t
stand thinking about being in jail on
my birthday.”
Baldwin is thoroughly aroused over
the case.
"The boy is breaking down under
this punishment,” said Baldwin. "He
ia frail physically and he is too sensi
tive to get a^long with other prisoners
in the Jail. They ridicule him and he
doesn't understand them.”
Even the jail attendants, hardened
by their contact with all sorts of law
violators, are touched by Jimmy's
plight, and express the hope that lie
will soon be paroled.
Baldwin Is determined to fight for
the parole of the boy, and Tuesday
morning Issued a. statement giving
reasons why he ie convinced the boy
should be paroled.

1'eter Rabbit Has a Queer Feeling.
There are some jieople w ho call au
tumn the sad time of the year. In a
way it Is a sad time, for it is the
time of parting with many friends.
But even if he had to say goodby to
so many of his neighbors, Peter Bab
bit never could be really sad. Tfie
cool, crisp air always made him feel
good. Then, too, whenever he said
boodby to an old neighbor who was
going away for the winter, he always
thought of the Joy of welcoming that
neighbor hack again in the spring.
Peter had gone over to Farmer
Brown's garden. There was .nothing
to particularly interest him there now
excepting a few old cabbage leaves.
Still he liked to go up there. Now,
as he sat munching a cabbage leaf.
It popped into his head that he hadn’t
seen Old Mr, Toad for a long time.
”t wonder where the old fellow is,”
said Peter to himself between bites.
"I wonder where he will spend the
winter. X would like to say goodby
to him before he goes to sleep for

Old Mr Toad. He hopped about oil
over Farmer Brown's garden. He
looked under everything that be
thought Old Mr. Toad could hide be
neath. Not a. trace of Old Mr. Toad
did he find. Then lie came back to
ttyat cabbage leaf and began to eat
again. But us he ate a queer feeling
took possession of Peter Rabbit, lie
couldn't get rid of II. He had the
feeling that Old Mr. Toad was very
near. Two or three times he stopped
eating to look around, half expecting
to see Old Sir. Toad sitting cloee at
hand. But he didn't.
Tile very next evening Peter Rab
bit was back In Farmer Brown's gar
den. He was after more cabbage.
The cabbages had been gathered by
Farmer Brown’s Boy, but the stalks
still stood there in rows, with the big
outer leaves clinging to them. Peter
didn't think of Old Mr. Toad until
he happened to stop by the same
cabbage stalk lie hod sat by the night
before. Then again he bad that
queer feeling tlint Old Mr. Toad was
very near him. He even peeped un
der all the old cabbage leaves. He
couldn't find Old Mr. Toad. .
Peter scratched a long ear with a
long hind tool. He was puzzled. He
|couldn't imagine why he should have
that feeling that Old Mr. Toad was
near, yet not be able to see him.
"I don't see why I have that feel
ing.-’ said he, talking to himself. ‘‘I’ve
hunted this garden all over, and Old
Mr. Toad Isn't In It. I haven’t the
least idea where he is, but he cer
tainly isn't in this garden.”
Peter was wrong. Old Mr. Toad
was in that garden. Not only was
he in that garden, but he was very
near to Peter, and that is why Peter
had that queer feeling. The truth is.
Peter was sitting right over Old Mr.
Toad. Old Mr. Toad had gene to bod
tor the winter. He had dug down
into the ground close to that very
..abbage stalk. He had dug with his
hind feet, a.** is ids funny way. Ila
huil I lacked Into the h‘>le us he dug If,
and the earth had fallen In over him
and covered him up. He had dug
down and down and down until he
had felt sure that he was deep
enough to lie beyond the danger of
freezing when Jack h t ost should
come and freeze the earth. Then he
hud gone to sleep.
So alt the time that Peter wal sit
ting there he was sitting right above
Old Mr. Toad and didn't know It.
That is how it happened that he had
that queer feeling.
