Cow Takes Tumble, There was plenty of excitement Wednesday evening at the corner of Berlin street and I"armington avenue, when a cow which was being trans- ported in a small auto truck, either jumped or fell from the rear of the vehicle. The animal was unhurt, but refused to walk a small plank back into the truch. ’ The driver received many sugeg tions from passershy and bystanders | regarding the best way to get the cow back into the car but the question was | finally seltled when the animal was lifted bodily and placed where it be- longed.

Ste "'s act has won expressions of admiration from the entire postal servico as well as that of many in- dividvals throughout the country. He | was sent to Atlantic City to recuperate from his wounds with funds con- tributed by numerous postal employes, and a special extension of his leave of absence has been granted by the postmaster general to permit his re- covery, delayed by the frail condi- tion of his health, which, six months before the attempted robbery, had caused his transfer from the service in New York to East Orange. Postmaster General New listened to Stack tell how he recelved several sacks of valuable registered mail from New York on the Lackawanna rail- road train on the morning of July 3f, at the East Orange statlon. Two men | the other on his right thumb, swung off the train as it pulled out, Stack said he was susplcious and reached for his pistol. As he did the | men opened fire on him and he felt two bullets strike, one on the thigh, Nev- crtheless he returned the fire, and the men turned to flee. Stack's aim was true and one bandit fell. The other escaped in an automobile, In the presence of his official fam- ily Postmaster General New told Stack that the army and navy decorated their men for conspicuous acts of bravery but the post office department had no way of doing that other than to place in an employe's record a cita- tion for such acts. He handed Stack a check for $2,000, saying that was the limit which congress had provided for such rewards. General New read |to Stack the citation which recorded conspicuous loyalty to the sefvice at the peril of his life.
