Woe

NEW YORK. July 25.-An Illicit
still was raided by Internal Revenue
Agent Thompson. at No. So Scanned
street last night, and Mary Grossman,
who was found operating the plant,
was placed under arrest.
The woman told pathetic tale OF
destitution. and admitted she had made
''schnapps" to support herself and l3-
year-od daughter, Sadie, victim OF
epilepsy. The woman said she was a
cigar maker, but that her daughters s
affection was such that she could not
leave her alone. Some months ago a
man came and offered to pay her rent
II she would permit him to make
"schnapps" in her rooms. A couple
of months ago a stranger called during
the mans absence and inquired for
him. When told of the visit Mrs.
Grossmans tenant hurried away and
never returned. She finally started in
to make the "schnapps" herself.
In view of Ter daughters condition
Commissioner Shields permitted the
woman to go home Hpon her promising
to make no more "schnapps."

Starch Saved Him
BOu'S Fight With RdttI6r

LEXINGTON. Ky, July 25.-Shelby
Mitchell, aged twelve years. had a
terrible encounterr with a snake in
his fathers corn crib att East Hick-
man yesterday. When the boy en-
tered the crib he saw a rattler about
four feet In leng&. coiled and ready
for an attack The boy attempted to
secure a pitchfork, which lay near by,
but the snake sprang at him and
fastened his fangs In his shirt front.
The boy seized hold OF the reptiles
body and. pulling 1t loosa, threw 1t
across the corn crib. He then Sc
cured the pitchfork and before the
snake could make another coil he
h.. killed 1t. The boy had on
starched shirt preparatory to visiting
a neighbor. and to this fact probably
owes his life.
