B = VOMAN SAVES ENTIRE TOWN Special Dispatch to The Call. HELENA, Mont.,, May 11.—Rimini, a small mining camp about ten miles | sm\.xh of Helena, has a candidate for| a Carnegle medal in the person of Miss Ida Mellon, a comely youngi schoolteacher, whose presence of mind | undoubtedly prevented the total de- | struction of the fifty or more houses in the place, to say nothing of the loss, of life that must have resulted. Her | claims, it is understood, will be pre- | sented to the proper commission in Washirgton, and it is believed she will be the first Montana resident thus honored. Miss Mellon’s attention was called during school hours to a volume of smoke issuing through the ceiling of the distrjet schoolhouse. In a mo- ment pandemonium reigned, but she soon established order and got the children out safely. Then an im- promptu fire brigade was organ- ized under her direction and the chil- | | dren pressed inte service, using lunch- con pails and every conceivable re- ceptacle for the carrying of water, which was taken from a near-by creek. In this way the fire was quickly con- quered. As if nothing unusual had oc- curred, school was shortly afterward resumed. The town of Rimini consists of about fifty wooden structures, built closely together, the schoolhouse being on the uu(h side, from which direction the blowing. Had the fire not T inguished the town would surely have been ‘consumed. All of the male inhabitants are employed in the mines in that vicinity, and were un- aware of the impending danger to their homes and families until they came off shift in the evening. ——————— FARMER’'S CARELESSNESS RESULTS-IN HIS DEATH !

NEW TYORK, May 11.—Caught at Broadway and Twenty-seventh street at 6 o’clock this evening by two sales- men of a jewelry establishment in West Twenty-third street after a chase of several blocks, Count Raggi Conte | Carlo of Italy, tall, handsome and‘fash- ionably dressed, fought desperately with the two policemen who placed him under arrest. His struggle attracted a crowd which blocked traffic in that busy section. Count Carlo was accused by the jew- elry salesmen of the theft of a diamond brooch valued at $1500. He was taken to the sub-station in East Twenty-sev- enth street. He was searched there and a brooch, which was identified by the salesmen, was found in his glove. Some note paper bearing the Waldort Astoria crest was found in his pocket. The insignia of a coronet was engraved on his card. A charge of grand larceny was made against him. The Count did not understand Eng- lish, and a salesman who spoke French ‘waited upon him. He asked to be shown some diamonds, and said he wanted to spend about $2000 for a gift for a young woman. He chose a de- sign and asked the salesman to accom- pany him to the Waldorf, where he said he had a deposit of 39,000 francs. As the salesman turned to get his hat the visitor left the diamond office in the rear of the store and hurried away without waiting for the salesman to accompany him. He had gone but a moment when the salesman found that a brooch was missing from the stock he had displayed to the Count. The salesmen started in pursuit of the Count and after a lively chase he was overtaken at Broadway and Twenty- seventh street. Papers found in his pockets indicate that he is well connected in Italy. —e———— Do NNy ST e £ R e Mo eI, SIS o FREE T0-DAY Speclal Dispatch to The Call.
