RESCUED A BABY.

Edmond p. Hawkins is in the hospital
with broken leg. That's nothing. for
there are hundreds OF people In this town
who say Eddie is a hero. Not only
that, but he has earned the everlasting
gratitude OF the father and mother of a
little child,
A nurse girl was on the pavilion OF the
Pagoda Saturday evening with the child
OF House Painter Alfred Stanley. The
child is 3 or years old. The nurse Is said
to have stood the child upon the rail that
runs around the pavilion. Whether the
nurse let go of tho child or the youngster
in its restlessness, tried to dance on tho
rail and missed its footing is not known
but at any rate the child got away from
the nurses control and fell into the waters
OF tho gulf
The pavilion platform is not high and
the water Is net deep. The child. after
disappearing once beneath the surface
1oated calmly on the waters. Edmond
Hawkins jumped overheard The shore
slopes gradually at the Pago1a and the
water is never deep. There was less than
three feet when Hawkins jumped In.
Probably he landed on the hard bottom
Just as a wave receded, At any rate he
that he broke his leg, But regardless OF
his broken leg he caught hold of the baby
ard he held on until help arrived.
Then he was taken to the hospital AMI
baby was taken home by a fearful nurse
Painter Stanley saYb he will pay all Of
young Hawkins hospital expenses aud
give him Job when he gets well. which
the doctors say will be abau. two weeks.
Hawkins lives al 2sC9 avenue p and has
hten employed by the opera house people
and occasionally by the Pagoda people.
