Three Young Women Narrowly Es-

1t takes lot of pluck and good amount
of common sense to rescue three young
women from death by drowning but pluck
and common sense were not wanting during
a recent accident on Long island. 1t was
matter of seconds only, at least so far as
Mrs Minnie Hiddink was concerned, and
the others were nearer death than they are
evor likely to be again and escape.
PatchCgue mill pond. one of the largest
| on Long island, was crowded with skaters.
They had been warned to keep away fron
the east shore, where ice cutters had BEEN
at work.
Agnes and Minnie Grundy and Minnie
Hiddink neglected the warning So long as
they skated singly the ice was strong
enough to bear their weight, but when they
glided along three abreast, their arms in
| terlocked, it gave way under them and they
were plunged into the water.
VIII Stllman realized conditions. He Or
dered the skaters to keep back and almost
in the same breath called for volunteers
to form a human lifeline.
! Men and boys threw off their coats, threw
themselves fiat on the ice and grasped each
others heels Stillman found he could not
reach the young women and the ice was
sinking under his weight. He called to
| George Homan, who is light and strong
The latter pulled himself along the chain
until he was at the end.

| paralyzed her mind She not only kept
aioat herself, but grasped her sisters hair
| and kept her above the water. She told
Minnie Hddink to hold onto the ice.
But the wits had been frightened out of
| Miss Hiddink. She was unconscious be-
fore Homan could reach her. Twice she
| had gone down.
Take out Minnie first" said Agnes
Grundy. Eve are all right for little
| time"
! Homan grasped Miss Hiddink's dress just
as she was disappearing Stlllman called
to Agnes Grundy to take hold of Miss Hid
! dink's dress
Haul away on the line" he shouted.
Then those behind, where the ice was
strong, tugged with all their might. The
| human chain started backward. The strain
on Homan was terrific, but he never let
go, nor did any one else.
When the ice grew frmer Agnes Grundy
held onto it, still supporting her sister,
while the line was drawn back with Miss
| Hiddinl in Homan's arms. She was wrap

Numerous Instances OF Feminine Ac-
tiNity in that Line.
One of the first women in this country to
make experiments in chemistry collected
gases in bottles and used a WATERFALL as
a trough, teaching the district school be-
tween times. Later, as "a special favor she
was admitted to tho laboratory of a pro-
fessor, who favored her appeal in order that
she might rehearse his lessons, step by
step. for the advantage Of a brother, who
was blind. This brother was Edward Liv-
ingston Youmans, the eminent writer, lee
turer and simplifer of science for the people.
He attributed much of his success to his
sisters apt explanations and untiring de-
votion.
This was all more than forty years ago.
Since that time scores of women have mas
tered chemistry in it's various branches
and put that knowledge to use for their
own benefit and not their brothers. Some
have taken special university courses, it
being fifteen years now since the more
literally constituted universities extended
their privileges to women. Other women
chemists picked up their information by
hand-to- hand contact with the work in
chemists shops and professors laboratories,
having no diploma other than efficiency and
practical service.
Some women are chemists by association,

identified with business founded on chemical
