How Three Syracusans Enjoyed Them-

Three newspaper men, having ex-

A HEROINE.

Hnree Persons Saved from Drowning by
an English College Girl
The plucky conduct of an English
giri fortnight ago is of the sort that
makes the whole world kin. Miss Mario
Louise Evans belongs as much to Amer
ica as 10 england, and as much to South
AFRICA as to both. 1t was on Sunday
and at Southampton that Miss Evans
and a friend were walking on Hythe
Pier after church. AS they approached
one of the landing places they noticed
a boat holding one man and two girls
nearing the stairs. They had been out
for row, and were evidently all mex
perienced water travellers, for as the
boat came alongside the three stood
upon one side. and naturally the craft
promptly tipped over, and In less time
than the writing Of It the three were
struggling in the water. Instantly
Miss Evans threw down the prayer
book she was carrying. and pulling of
one glove as she went, ran down the
stairs, and, leaning over, pulled In one
OF the women, who was near. The
other was clinging to the man and
struggling desperately thus prevent
ing him, although a good swimmer,
from rescuing her, and both were being
rapidly carried away on q strong tide.
Seeing the crisis, Miss Evans hesitated
not moment, but jumped In and swan
rapidly to the aid OF the pair. The
girl was nearly insensible when she
reached her, and, selling her with one
hand, she swan back to the pier.
mot for an instant" writes corre-
spondent, describing the scene, "did
Miss Evans lose her head, and yet there
were some twenty men looking on, who
did absolutely nothing, with one excep-
ton. An old gentleman threw a rope,
and, after the rescue. rushed OF for
brandy for the girl who had been in
the water longest. Miss Evans went
in with all her clothes on, removing
only one glove, and she laughinly told
me she did exactly what she would Have
done If she had had years TO contem-
plate the action, except that she should
have worn bathing dress for f1ereex-

NUMBERING OF HOUSES.
Berlin Began 1t just One Hundred
Years ACO.

Berlin Began 1t just One Hundred
Years Ago.
At present there Is some talk in Ber-
lin OF, celebrating a somewhat angular
centenary-that of the origin Of the
numbering of houses. According to q
German contemporary this convenient
method of indication was quite I'M
known, even In London or Paris, until
a century ago. In 1875 the practice OF
numbering private houses was begun
In Berlin. The method employed, how
ever, was then exceedingly imperfect.
The Brandenburg Gate was taken as
the point Of departure, and the mum.
bers went on successfully throughout
the whole town, without any distinction
as regards streets. Even to-day the sys-
tenn of numbering generally employed
In the German capital leaves much to
be desired, as the numbers run con-
secutively UP one side Of the street and
back again on the other. Vienna
claims the honor of having inaugurated
in 1903 the method Of placing the odd
numbers on one side Of the street and
the even ones on the other.
