Instruction in the final move- ments in the Iand drill, prelimin- ary to awimming drill in the water, im given in this, the third swim- ming lesson, by Dr. J. M. Voorheen for Evening World reade: BY DR. J. M. VOORHEES, The reader who has followed the ‘two preceding lessons has been prac- ticing the arm and leg movements and is now ready to combine them. Many instructors omit this third les- son, but it is of value, as in the action of arms and legs lies the secret of easy and rapid ewimming. LESSON III. In our lessons at the Battery baths it | fe not always practicable to give as much attention to the combination of leg and arm movements in the land rill as may be practiced to advantage dy those who are learning by them- selves. The combination of the two movements is really the crucial point In successful swimming. This may be learned In the water, but I advise careful attention to the follow- ing lesson: The first lesson gave the arm move- ment, which consists of three parts— shooting the hands forward from the breast to the full extent of the arms, swinging them in an arc backward till they are almost at right angles to the body, and then bringing them again to the first position. The leg mcvement consists in drawing NOW ACCUSES JEROME'S. MEN, “Missing Witness” Min- nie Kurtz Makes Re-| markable Statement in the Tombs. Minnie Kurtz, known during the Ward- tnan Bissert and Capt. Diamond trials @s “the missing witness,” made a re- markable statement in the Tombs to- @ay to an Byening World reporter. he declared that when she goes on the witness stand next Monday she will name two attaches of District-Attorney Jerome's staff who allowed her to escape arrest after taking from her a diamond locket and gold necklace. “T have told my story to Justice Mc- she said. ‘When I am placed; on trial Monday for keeping a disorderly place I will name these men. I was never a fugitive from justice. I -have been living at No. z/ Stuyvesant street right along. I used to go occasionally to visi: friends in Jersey, but I was never out of the city more than two weeks at a time. “The warrant against me was issued | June 21 of last year. Three weeks ago | two of Jerome's men, one a policeman | and the other a coufity detective, came to my home and said they had a war- rant for me, “What are you going bail?’ one of them asked. “Well, you people have kept me poor,’ I sald. ‘This time I am going to Jail. “Come along,’ he said, and I put on my het and went with them, In the treet the detective noticed my locket. ‘Mighty pretty locket,’ he said. It m| have cost you something,’ ‘Nothing ! than a thousand,’ I answered. “*¥ou can go to Jersey for that,’ he paid. I'm ready to talk business all right,’ I waid, and we went into a saloon, "ide chaseu my friend, the pollceman, back to the house, and Mr. Detective got the chain and locket. We went back to the house, The two remained about the place for several hours, and then they told me I could pack up at iny leisure and go to Jersey. I didn't leave ‘the city, but went to a hotel in Fourth avenue. Ten days ago 1 was arrested by Detective Toomey, of the Centre Street Court squad, 1 understand the night after the detectives got my braco- Jet Jerome and two of his men were around looking for me.

Mr. Newey told the Coroner here that the party of four had started in the launch on Monday for Dividing Croek for a cruise to Centre Moriches, L.

Three Pickpockets Took Mr. O’Hanlon’s Pocket-Book at “L" Station, but Returned It Through Post Office. Willlam O'Hanlon, a Justice of the Peace in Bowdon, England, who left for England on the steamship Etruria to- day, told a rather humorous story of how he was robbed of a pocketbook while in New York. It was afterward returned to him, minus $2 Mr. O'Hanlon, accompanied by his son, is makink a trip around the world, and came from Montreal, Can., to New York last Wednesday. On Thursday he went to Coney Island. Returning by boat early In the evening, Mr. O'Hanlon mounted the stalrmdeading to the up- town platform of the Battery place "LL railway station. Three rather roug.- looking characters jostled the Judge as he trled to board a train and blocked the gate entrance. After a little scuf- fle they went away and Mr. O'Hanlon remarked to the conductor that the men were very drunk. “Oh, no,,they were not,’ Mr. O'Han- jon says the conductor replied, “they were pickpockets.” Then the Judge found that his wallet had idsappeared fro mhis inside pocket. He reported the matter to the polic and the next day heard that a pocket- book had been found by a latter-carrier 1 na mail box. When the applied to the post-office authorities he was asked; “Who Is the woman whose name and address is In the wallet,” and the inscription, "Miss Annie Wilson, Clinton ' street, Bridgeport, Conn.,"" was shown to him written on'a email plece of paper Mr, O'Hanlon felt tempted to say that the young woman was 4 relation his, but Instead told the truth and sald that he had never heard of her before. “Then the wallet 1a yours,” replied the post-office clerk, "for we put the paper in there oursely: » of Gently Howl and your Hotel will serve Grape-Nuts Some hotels refuse to put on Menu because it Is not given free.

Many Rescued from a Crowded Tenement When Blaze Starts at Early Hour To-Day. Three policemen rescued an uncon- sclous family from a’ burning tenement at Nos, 32-28 East One Hundred and Ninth street before daybreak. The fire victims were Nicholas Aboleno, his wife and three-year-old child. Policeman Hugh Brady disrovered fre in the basement of the tenement and sounded an alarm. With Policeman Mo- Bornle he went through the house, a double five-story tenement, arousing the occupants, The tenants were mostly foreigners and they made frantic efforts \to save their household belongings, bom- barding the police as they passed along the hallways with a shower of vallses, bedding and furniture, Before a dozen families had escaped the halls were choked with smoke and flames cut off exit by the stairs, Capt. Doherty, of Engine Company No. 53, ordered the building covered with scal- ing and extension ladders, On them the firemen carried more than a hundred people to the street. Meanwhile Policeman Lawlor learned that Nicholas Aboleno was sick in the rear of & ground floor flat. By break- Ing into an adjoining flat Lawlor, with his companions, Brady and McBornie, got into a rear yard and scaled a seven- foot fence to the rear of the burning tenement. ‘Lawlor broke through a window Into the Aboleno apartment and found the family unconsclous {n bed, The flames had not reached them but their bedroom was filled with smoke. He carried the three {n turn to the window, swung them to Brady, who] Sat astride the fence and passed them down to McBornle in the adjoining yard, A Harlem Hospital ambulance sur- geon revived the victims, The fire did $1,000 damage. ——— FUSILLADE AT BARN FIRE.
