“QUITS STAGE TO "ARE FOR BABY “May Hilton's Love for the Foot- lights Vanished After She Had Taken the Little One Across Continent and Back. “NOW LOOKING FOR A HOME ‘TO SHELTER BUTH OF THEM, ———y “Her Husband, with Whom She Appeared in Vaudeville, Tried In Vain to Persuade Her to Continue Work. There !s a very pretty, rosy-cheeked young mother ‘and ‘avery small, fat baby up in the Bronx that want a home, They don't care how small or ‘how modest the home Is, so long as tt ‘Ws a hone where they can be by them- selves and live the way other folks live. ‘This young mother is an actress, Her “name is May Hilton, and with her hus- band, William Hilton, she has been for several years on the stage. They have been from one end of the country to the other, performing in vaudeville houses, and there never was a time when either she or her husband cared whether they had a home or not until that baby came. ‘They were prosperous and happy, and the glamor of the stage and thelr work was on them both, Then came the baby, It ts a-very fat, merry baby, with blue eyes and a bald head In aplto of tts nine months’ career, and It ought to have had a pettor mission in life than to make trouble between the father and mother, That tt has made trouble there {ano doubt. Then Her Ideas Changed. “Tt started in making trouble.as soon es it wasyborn by working a com- plete mo amorphosis in its mother's character, \It destroyed some of ,her Mustons about Iife. She who a year before would not have changed her lot in life with any steady, home-staying irl, who loved the jumps about the country, calling no place her abode, found that there were ideas in her head that she hadn't discovered before, She learhed very soon that she loved that baby more than she love] any other one thing In the world, and she Giscovered that she couldn't go around in the old way and give it the care and attention to which It was entitled from {ts mother, She tried it. She tried very hard to do her work on the stage with ‘hor husband’ and take care of the baby at the dame time, or three months after she was able to get up after the baby waa born she travelled dbout fran Place to place with it, leaving dt in hotels while she \ -4 on the stagow and sbending ‘most-of her earnings ‘in pay- ing women to care for it when she had to be away, Hard Life for Her and Baby, Jt waa hard lite for her, but a harder one for, the buby, 11 didn’t go! @head in \health as the young moticr thought {tought to, it stopped laughing pentirely and cried a great deal too Pinuch, Then this young mother made her mind that she and baby ought to have a home, She told her husband wo, ‘lit he wouldn't heur of it, He sald that she wax necessary to iim his stage work, that his income would ip te frais ie she fuiled to he wouldn't Gettling down, HORE SOES nr for another month the herself aroun et women dragged oe country with her baby, performing two, three and some times four times a day, And it hard work, too, for Hilton and his wife are jugglers, and they finish @ performance in a state of ale most complete exhaustion, They went clear to the Pacific coast, and on the way back Mrs, Hilton decided that it ‘was her last tour, She would make a home for the baby herself if she could not get it ORG other way, and when phe got back she went to her mother's, at No, 934 Btebbins avenue, in the Bronx, Her husband went with her. He spent three weeks trying to coax her out of her domesticity, Then, she saya, he left her. He couldn't induce her to go back on the stage, ‘because, In those three weeks ‘Tootsie (that's the baby) etoppad orying and began to laugh, stopped getting thin and vegan to get fat, Hilton hadn't a ehance tn the world of winning his point after that, Summoned Husband to Conrt, Mrs, Hilton tried to get her husband to make her an allowance as long gs je would not stay with her, but he re- used, So she was finally obliged to go to the Morrisania Police Court and have him. summoned there, He was found at No, Bedford avenue, Brooklyn, and he came to court promptly *T simply want a home, a little flat, » two room#—anything that I can call a home,” sald Mrs, Hilton to the Magis- trate, “It isn’t-much for a woman with @ baby to nak, T know It's strange for stage folks to have such ge timents, and Tnever had them before the baby came, But somehow the baby nade everything go different. T cannot risk q"inging my child up properly while T lead such a Mfe, and T will not do ft.” Hilton's defense was the very busi- Ness-like one that he had trained his wife to a class of work on the stage until she had become almost Indisnen- gable to him, Tt was her duty to stand by him, he sald, and not ruin his ca- GHOST SMOKES lyn, Says Watchman. MEN WITH: CROWBARS cf Workingman and Has Ap- peared Three Times Recently, In the vaulted, shadow-swept cellar of the great Brooklyn: Rapid ‘Transit car barns at Fifty-eighth street and Third avenue a ghost has ,come on nightly haunt, A one-armed spectre, garbed as a workingman and carrying a dim and ghéstly lantern, has made three appear: ances to Thomas Coopey, the night watchman, and Mr. Coopey has become nerve-shaken over the incident that he ts to-day confined to his home, Just after the bells of a nearby church had tolled midnight to-day the wrath was again on the works, but when by & preconcerted plan Coopey warned the men on the main floor of the presence It dissolved into a thin ribbon of vapor, Nevertheless the men came down to the cellar armed with crowbars and switch sticks, and searched throughout Its dark passages and black pits and corners, ‘They could find absolutely no thread or fibre of the spirit, nor even a drop of oll from the ghostly lantern, Watchman Doew Not Drink, Coopey first saw the ghost on Chris mas Eve, Now it may not be con- Jectured that the venerable watchman was in a receptive ‘mood for uncanny visitations, He Js a man of stolid make- tp, A man Of absolutely sober habits, who has a spotiess recont of the longest service of any employee of the Brooklyn Rapld Transit Company or any of Its constituent companies, ‘The watchman 18 looked up to by his fellow-employees as the doyen of the profession, having begun railroading as a tow-boy on the old horse-car lines many years ago, Now Nelleves in the Banshee, The car barns occupy the entire area bounded by Third avenue, Fifty-elghth street, Second avenue and Fifty-ninth sireet, It ls a one-story brick structure with two sub-cellars, Part of Coopey's fob Is to make a nightly Inspection of the sub-cellars to see that no tramp gets lodgment there and inadvertently or otherwise sets the place on fire, He went on duty as usual on Christ- mas Eve with his mind entirely free from. ultra-suggestion, though he did not put it that way, He simply said that he was cold-sgber, clear-eyed' and with every nerve In his body strung taught, ‘There are several cars undergoing re balrs stored In the cellar, among them car No, 14%, which Is known through- out Brooklyn as the hoodoo, It is a sort of juggernaut for the company, having crushed out many lives. The men hate to ride In It and the com- pany has ordered that the number bo taken off it. As Coopey passed the car he noticed a slender jicker of lg penctrating, @ shadow behind it, Walking around he was astonished to se a lanteyn stand- ing beside a tonl pit a dozen yards from him, The lantern should not have been there and the watchman could not Imagine who left it there, He stood waaing abstractedly at it, cogitating on its presence, when # figure rove out of the pit, Ghont Has Only One Arm, It made not the slightest sound In Ascending to the floor of the’ cellar and selzed the handle of the lamp ind walked off with It, It was a one-armed ghost, Coopey says, the stump having the appearance of having just been cut off, ‘The clothing worn by the figure was of the usual sort worn by working- men, consisting of overalls and ere: In the half ght Coopey could make out @ scar extending from the man's right ear across his cheek and under the chin, ending at the throat, He could also desery that the left ear was mi: ing and that the nose had been broken, The ghost, if tt was one, and the watchman {8 now sure that It was no living creature from his subsequent ex- periences, started to walk down tween the aisles of cars, swinging the lantern back and forth, For a few moments Coopey watched It with bulg- Ing eyes and drooping jaw. Then when he realized that it might be some un- welcome Invader of his precinct ho shouted: “What the blazes aro you around here?’ Spook Smokes Pipe, Too, No answer or reply came from the silently moving figure, nor did {t turn at the command, Continuing its walk toward an excavation in the front of the cellar the wralth sat down on a | pile of lumber, took out a short Dipe and began to smoke, This roused the watchman’s tre, ven he was forbidden to smoke in the Dullding and if there was any new | employee on the work he intended to | kive him a lecture on the fitness of | things: With vigorous stride he ap-| broached the calmly smoking man, | mopping a few fect from it and clear: doing “SPECTRAL PIPE One-Armed Spook, with Scarred Face and Ear Missing, Haunts Cellar of Car Barns in Brook- VAINLY CHASE SPIRIT.
