HER GROANS BETRAYED HER ACT IN TIME TO SAVE. Hurried to Hospital, Where She Is Pronounced Out of Danger, | but Is Held a Prisoner on the Charge of Attempting to Take Her Life. Although only fourteen years of age, Katie Hatler thought she knew love, and when persons older and wiser sought to give her advice she determined to die. This accounts for the presence of Katle | Hatler, quite repentant and extremely uncomfortable, in the prison ward of Harlem Hospital to-day. ‘The girl is an orphan and has for years made her home with her uncle and aunt, Louls and Mary Braudt, who maintain & coffeeshouse and bakery at No. 1871 Gecond avenue, across the street from a big car-house of the Interurban Street! Rallway Company. The coffee-house 1s patronized extensively by the streot car employees. Romeo Appears, Among these is a dashing young con- @uctor, whose taste in dress {s at once the envy and pride of his xssociates, None ever saw the edges of his blouse frayed, and he would as soon think of taking his car out without the motor- man as going on duty without a crease in his trousers. It came to pass that this particular conductor paid a great deal of attention to poor Katie Hatler, who 1s a big girl for her age and. comely. ‘The conductor and Katie. went to Coney Island last Sunday. It Is a long way from Coney Island to No. 1871 Seo- ond avenue, the cars were crowded, and Progress was siow, so it was not sur- prising that It was well along toward Monday when Katle got back home. For the rest of the night her aunt and her uncle talked to her in remonstrance. Likewise they talked to her on Mon- @ay and Tuesday and Wednesday and up to yesterday evening when Katle retired to her room in the rear of the| bakeshop. So She Took Poison. Mr, Braudt heard the child groaning fm her rom early to-day. He found her almost unconseicus. Beside her on the bed was a little bottle that had con- tained carbolic acid. It happened that @ policeman wax just outside the shop, and thai this policeman secured an am- bulance in record time. Katle had swal- few days she will be as well as ever, but she cannot return to the bakeshop until she has cleared herself in Harlem Court of the charge of attempted sul- cide, The dapper young conductor is not working to-day. ee TROLLEY CAR CUTS OFF WOMAN'S FOOT.

SEARCH FOR FUN ENDS IN SUICIDE Pretty Sadie Keran, Who Left Aunt’s Home to Earn a Liv- ing, and “Have Fun,” -Is Dying in Bellevue. Sadie Kernan is dying in Bellevue Hospital, a victim of her own prettiness and wilfulness. She took carbolic acid in Central Park last night. Clutched tightly in her hand was found this note: “I am Sadie Kernan. Take my body to my mother at No, 154 East One Hun- dred and Thirteenth street.” ‘Thus the young girl's desire to return to the home she had gbandoned to pur- sue what she fancied was the path of pleasure was strong In death, She had refused to return home in life. The ‘mother’ referred to by the girl is In truth an aunt, Mrs. Edward Ke: nan, wife of a well-to-do publisher, Mrs. Kernan this morning told an Evening World reporter the girl's sad story. Left Home to Have Fun. Sadle's parents died when she was very young and Mrs, Kernan took the child and brought her up as her own. As she grew in years she gained in beauty until her young head was turned by the flattery of all the young men cf the neighborhood. ‘fhe girl was headstrong and refused to listen to her “mother’s” advice. As she reached young womanhood her desire to stay out late at night and keep up an end- less round of gayety led to strong ad- monition from Mrs, Kernan. It resulted in Miss Sadie declaring defiantly that If she could not “nave fun” living with her aunt she would go away, make ner own living, and “nave fun" herself. he left Mrs, Kernan’s home last January. The girl went to board with a friend, Mra, Duggan, at No. 334 Bast Porty- seventh street, and for a while her idea of fun was given full play, tsut even the friendship of Mrs. Duggan and that of her mother, Mrs, Olsen, could not stand for the strain of the girl's way- wardness. She was told that she would have to leave. Had Little Money, Miss Sadie had but ittle foney, as she had been too busy baving ‘fun’ to Jearn anye and her uncle and aunt had refused to give her any more, She was penniless and was Ill, too, the fast pace she had set herself not only making her loge her health, but much of her former beauty. ‘There was one young man in the vicinity to whom it was popularly supposed the gitl was engaged to be married. He was seen with her in Cen- tral Park last evening, sumed that she went to him In her ¢rou- ble after Mrs, Duggan had told her that she must go away and had asked his ald. ‘ Faded and tll, the girl's attractiveness was not enough evidently to cause the young man to agree to @ marriage at once, for @ few moments After he left diner a park policeman heard her scream in agony. ‘The policeman found the girl uncon- ‘eclous with an emptied bottle of car- jbolic acid by her side. In her hand was tie note to Mrz, Kernan, Mrs. Kerman went to Bellevue this morning to see the girl The doctors |sald that Sadie had one chance in a thousand to live. “If she does live.” said Mra, Kernan, sadly, “I will have to have her sent away to some institution. She must be kept from herself. Poor Sadie!”’ MIDWIFE IS IN TROUBLE.

The Housesmiths and Bridgemen’s Union, tor which Sam Parks is the walk- ing delegate, 1s the most important or- gantzation which hay not yet accepted the arbitratton plan. Parks has an- nounced that Ms union will not accept, either. Nearly all of the men of Parks's union are now working for either the Fuller Company or the American Bridge Company, #o their refusal to get in line for the Employers’ Association does not keep the men from working. Samuel B. Donnelly, one of the Concil- Jation Committee of the Civio Federa- ton, gald to-day that, In his opinion, if definite and afMfirmativa steps are not takeh quickly by the recalcitrant unions. he would not be surprised to see non- union men put to work on the big con- tracts. When Sam Parks nesrd of Donnelly's statement he ceclared that the Presl- dent of the Housesmiths’ Union, Rob- ert E, Neldig, must resign from se Civic Federation at once. He said that {i would not do for a union man to ne @ member of such an organization. This means that Parks and Neldig are to fight it out again, TOILERS DRAW ON BANK SAVINGS Great Building Trade Tie-Up and Other Labor Troubles Re- sponsible for Rush to Get Out Hoardings.

In 1901 the Sheldon House was burned, the fire starting near Woods's apartments, and he made a claim for $1,600. The insurance com- panies finally forced a compromise for $800. About that time Ocean Grove, N. J., Was ..6 scene of a series of re- markable robberies. Woods claimed to have been one of the victims. in ls¥ or 1892 a storage place in Passaic was) destroyed by fire and Woods lost a lot of surgical Instruments. Woods claimed Insurance, but the com- antes fought him on the ground that his property had been told under a chattel mortgage. He beat them finally and they had to pay. San Franciaco Chief Here.

Ne Time fer Mirth. For several years the members of the local Board of Health laughed at the efforts that were being made in Sum- mit, South Orange and other muniolpall- ties in this part of New Jersey to anni- hilate the mosquitoes by draining the stagnant pools and covering the water in the larger ponds with kerbsene oll. The health commissioners have come to @ realization, however, of the fact that the matter is not a joke. Prof. Smith and his assistant, H. M. Brehm, of No. 88 Hunterdon street, Newark, have been conducting expert- ments on the Newark meadows at the foot of Hamburg place. Large cages have been doped to determine the longevity of the mosquito and Ue conditions under which the insects thrive, and to learn aigo any~ thing about the habits of the pests that may be useful to know In the efforts to | exterminate them. | Prof. Smith went over the situation thoroughly with a special committee of the Board and the latter Visited the meadows;- were the work of extermination ts being pi sued, and Prof, Smith's experiment sta tion’ on the Newark meadows. ‘Th committee reported favorably on th popes and the Board appropnated $1 0 in an effort to destroy some | of the breeding places of the peste, and to demonstrate the practicability of ta ditching method as a mosquito eradl- cator, §00-Acre Moi The investiguts Tbe that the princi within the olty to Incubator, committee found ceding areas lying ver, The worat Js that part of the mea- dowa lying at the foot of Hamburg place and including approximately 300 acres.
