NO STEAM HEAT? | TELL THE POLICE That’s What One Harlem Wom- an Did, and a Big Patrolman Was Sent to Order the Janitor to Whoop Up the Fires. HALL OF FAME AWAITS _ HER, BUT SHE DECLINES. It May Be Modesty, and, Again, It May Be the Ominous Gleam in the Eyes of the Dusky Mon- arch of the Basement. There {s a shrinking heroine in Har- being the woman who went to st One Hundred and Twenty- et station and got a policeman the janitor to butld a fire in the furnace of the-flat-house at No. 502 ‘West One Hundred and Thirtleth streét. All New York would like to know the name of the woman who has established PLATTE VALENCIENNES LACES AND INSERTIONS, 11g to 5 inches wide; sold elsewhere from 8c. to 22c. a yard; special at Main F., centre, Anticipating April Showers With a Sale of Silk Umbrellas. ~.

The negro janitor, Rufus kins, also would Ike to know her name. 'd lke to know huh name,” said | Rufus to-day. “Ef I know huh name | fone shoo huh away f'm dissher house. j Dat Iady she imposin’ on me a insult dat cain't be wiped out nohow.” Perhaps it is because the janitor Is so anxious to know her name that the heroine in question prefers to remain unknown. Even her spasmodic and suc- cessful rebellion against the boss-of the flat-house evidently has not served to wipe out her fear of the dingy man with headquarters in the cellar, No Hall of Fame for Mer. When vening Wortd reporter went to the e to-day to Invite the heroine to have her statue cast for the Hall of Fame he couldn't’ find hc, There are Seven women in the house—all married and all under the brunette suspicion of uufus Atkins. RiIudeed. 1 didn’t go to the police sta- tion.” said Mrs, A. J. Journoud. “All T gid’ was to go down to the cellar and tell the janitor that we were freezing to death, Maybe it was Mrs, Gibson ‘on the ground floor.” “Certainly not,” sala Mrs, Gibson. “All I did was to telephone the agent, Mr. Rosenberg. and tell him that if he didn’t make his janitor start a fire in ¢ the furnace s0 we could have some steam heat to keep warm, probably the tenants would set the house on fire if they couldn't keep warm any other way, but as for going to the police station and complaining against the janitor it must have been some other woman, because after I telephoned to the agent I didn’t say another word—only sat in my rooms and shivered until late last night, when there was a fire started and the steam was turned on. From what I have heard people say maybe , st was Mrs. Ellis on the third floor.” Ridiculous, Says Mrs, Ellis. f “Me go to the police station and com- plain about the heat? queried Mrs. Ellis. “Why how perfectly ridiculous! All I Aid was to go down to the cellar and give the janitor a piece of my mind. He sajd he was cleaning the boitrs, but why he picked out a day when {t snowed to clean the bollers is a mystery to me. I'd ffeeze,stiff before I would go to a police station and make @ spectacle of myself. Maybe {t Mrs, Maxwell on the top floor.” . “If anybody says I went to the po- lice station.” remarked Mrs. Maxwell, ‘it is a falsehood, All I did was go down to the basement and ask the jan- {tor as quietly as I could why we were was (reezjng to death, Ho said he was cleaning the boliers. When 1 went out to the grocery this morning I heard that it was a lady on the second floor,” Janitor Smiled Grimly. ‘This lady Was Interviewed, as were all the other ladies in the house, and . Sno and all dented that they had’ gone to the station-house, When the result of the quest was reported to Rufus Aucina ne smiled a ead smile, rathor a cynical smile.
