Found by Police with Infant in \ Her Arms Standing in Smoke- ~ Filled Hali—Had to Be Over- powered to Be Saved. Flames and smoke in the tenement fhouse at No. 73 Henry street drove twenty-two families to the atreet early to-day and caused a panic which would “undoubtedly have resulted in the death for the activity of the police and fire- men. ' : The fire was discovered by Badle iwein, a tittle child who lives on the first floor of the house with her father ind mother. The child became hungry and awakened her mother, She said that she smelled smoke and Dean to cry, declaring that she was suffocating. The mother then awakened the father and asked that he go Into the front of the apartments. It was found that the whole front of the house was (in flames and the hallways were filled ‘with smoke. ‘The cry of “Fire! was rained and the families in the upper floors attempted to get to the street. They could not reach wafety through the halls and climbed to ‘the fire-escapes and to the roof. Policemen James Davis, Timothy Crimmins and William Dunn ran through the bullding and prevented a ‘mumber of persons from jumping to the street. When the firemen arrived Ind- ers were raised and a score or more ‘ef persons were carried to safety. ‘When every one was thought to have ‘been saved Kiwein yelled that his wife was missing. Firemen and the three ‘policemen rushed into the smoke-filled halis and there found the woman with the child in her arms, It was the samo ehild that had discovered the fire. The mother was crazed from fright and fought her rescuers off. She had to be (overpowered to be taken to the street. Mrs, Ktwein's condition was such that @n ambulance was called from Gouv- erneur Hospital. The ambulance was tn charge of Miss Emily Dunning, the ‘woman surgeon. Dr. Dunning had dim- eulty ‘in restraining the crazed mother on the way to the hospital.

(Spectal to The Evening World. BOSTON, Mass., April 6.—Persistent work on the part of the horde bearing fruit. New evidence has been found and the authorities are be- ginning to have hope that they may solve the mystery. It is reported that an insane woman who recently escaped from an asylum at Halifax, N. S., and formerly lived on the Page estate, was seen in Weston on the day after the murder. The police are looking for her, but they have not much confidence in the theory that she committed the crime. There was too much calculation about it to warrant the belief woman is said to be. A Perplexing evidence {s given by Joseph Gallant, @ driver for a dairy, who passed the Page homestead in his wagon between 3 and 3.15 o'clock in the afternoon on the day of the murder. Suddenly, he says, Mr. Edwin Page rushed out of the house and asked him if he had seen two men down the road. MR. PAGE STOPPED THE STRANGERS. Gallant says that he replied in the affirmative and pointed out the men to Mr. Page, who halled them. They stopped and hurried to them and him while the other kept on toward Cutter Corner, ‘This encounter, as described by Gallant, seems not to coincide with the stories told by Mr. Page of the finding of the body and his subsequent jactions, A blood-stained handkerchief found outside the Page house may prove to be the clue needed for the solution of the mystery. It is said that the detectives have traced this handkerchief to the Boston woman who owned It, and that they have found that she was a woman sus- pected from the first of knowing something about the crime. The handkerchiet was found outside the window of the room tn which Miss Page was murdered. Its finding was not thought significant at the time, It appeared that the murderer had taken the handkerchief and wiped the blood from the blade of the double-edged dagger after stabbing Miss Page and had then thrown the handkerchief from the window. The most sensational incident of the day was the announcement of Em- balmer Bruce, who sald he had found evidence in the house—he would not say what—that strongly pointed to a certain person. He asserts that there was a motive for the crime, and that it was a rational one. The woman was kilNed for the purpose of removing her from some one’s path. “he bloody handkerchief is said to be the evidence found. Mr. Bruce gave a detailed account of how he found the body and the nature of the wounds, and proved conclusively that Mabel Page had been murdered, In giving further detatls of his dimooveries Mr. Bruce said: “The note which was found downstairs was not written by Mabel Page, but by the murderer. She wrote a regular hand that was easy to imitate, and the murderer had plenty of Mabel’s handwriting. The note was simply left to gain time, the murderer thinking the girl's father would not go in search of his, daughter after reading it. POWERFUL, MOTIVE FOR THE CRIME. “As to the personality of. the murderer, the girl believed this person to be her friend and had not the slightest suspicion that the person who committed the crime bore her any Ill will. The murderer was admitted to without the slightest question or suspicion. 6 @ matter of fact, there existed a powerful motive for the crime, and the murderer, in the guise of @ friend, followed the programme unre- lentingly.

IN OLD JAPAN. a tired and worn-out nervous syetem is becoming very com- mon in these days of competition and exhausting business pursuits. The woman, tired out by a day’s shopping and “just ready to fly” finds imme- diate relief in a hot cup of tea, as the man seeks his cigar for solace after a hard day’s work. So common has the use of tea become that hardly a family is without it, and some years we import over 100 ‘million pounds. Its use 1s largely confined to the gentler sex, the men preferring to- bacco and alcoholic stimulants, Tea in itself, unless drunk to excess, is a harmless beverage, its first effect be- ing a slight stimulation of the ner- vous system. Its excessive use, how- ever, disturbs the digestive function, causing catarrh, indigestion, biliour- ness and constipation, The craving for stimulants, however, in every case indicates a condition of lowered vitality of the nervous system, duc either to over-work or lack of nour- ishment.
