PlTTsBURC'S FERRY MAID.
How Girl OF Sixteen Supports Her Mother,
Sister and Brother.

How Girl OF Sixteen Supports Her Mother,
Sister and Brother
Young in years, but full Of yigor
and buoyancy Of youth, pretty Bertha
Walz, q girl Of 16, has q career as a
ferry maid on the Ohio river that for
the novelty of its features is rarely
surpassed.
For months the young girl has been
the sole support Of her mother, young.
er sister and brother. Week in and
week out, unaided and alone, she has
piled her big ferry skiff back and forth
across the Ohio to secure means for
providing for her helpless mother and
sister.
Bertha lives with her mother in m
old, but neat-appearing houseboat, on
the banks of the Ohio river, near the
Pressed Steel Car Company's works,
in lower Allegheny. This boat has
been her home for the past six years.
The idea Of running q regular ferry
came to her through the suggestions
of mill men who cross the river at this
point to the McIlea's Rocks side to and
from their work in the big mills.
Partly through the efforts Of gener-
Gus contributors a skif' was procured
and the girl entered upon q new career.
She found her task rather arduous at
hrst, and her fair young hands were
covered with many blister at the
end of q days toll. But soon tho
muscles of her arms bade fair to rival
those of the crack oarsmen Of q
varsity crew. Now she thinks nothing
of rowing six or eight stalwart men
over the river on a single trip. Some
days she makes rs many as forty
trips, and has been known to take in
as muc: as So dly as result Of her
toll.
The widespread popularity Of her
ferry, however, aroused the ire Of less
favored ferrymen living in shanty
boats near by. First, her best skff
!, was stolen, and later new one was,
turned loose on the river. Finally, she
was not permitted to land her sskiff on
the McKee's Rocks shore at the large.
landing, but was made to run her boat
in at some obscure point. Consider
able trouble arose over the ownership
and use of q pair Of wooden steps
leading down the river embankment
to the shore. The climax was reached
one night last week. Richard Grif-
feths, fcrryman, tried to lay violent
hands on her Only the timely appear
ance of mill man and the presence of
her faithful dog, which usually accom-
panies her for protection, saved her
from serious injury at his hands. AS q
result, suit was promptly entered
against Griffeths on charge Of disor-
derly conduct before Alderman Lynch.
At the hearing Griffeths was fined SIG
and costs, or 20 days In Jail. The steps
claimed by Griffeths as personal prop
erty were declared to be government
property, and it was directed that the
fair prosecutor was fully entitled to
their use.-Pittsburg Chronicle-Tele.

AS to Vaccination.

The small wire cages now used to
protect the vaccinated arm from rub
bing against people, clothes and cor.
ners of houses would have been highly
appreciated years ago. In the young
days of the century we boys and girls
had no sort of protection. In not
few cases re-inoculation was constant:
" occurring, because we would persist
in scratching the sore and transferring
nm atom of the virus to some other part
of the body by means Of the finger
nail Then we liked q big scar. 1t
meant that the vaccination took"
well.-Victor Smith, in New York
Press.

Short Bolero Coats.

All the new coat costumes for win

coat, but the prettiest have some fash

or breaking up the plain edge in some
manner. Even the holero which
reaches to the waist at the back runs
down into tabs or points in front, and
the sack coat terminating on the hips
shows slightly elongated scallops ut
the front.
Many boleros are single breasted.
