BLIND MOTHER
SAVED BY SONS
Mrs. Aronson Was In a Burn
ing Tenement When Her Four
Boys Seized Her and Carried
Her to Street.

Eighteen families living in the six
story tenement at No. 81 Pike street
were panic-stricken by q fire which
started in the drug store run on the
ground floor by George Pollock to-day.
The only thing that prevented the
entire building from being destroyed
and perhaps the loss OF several lives
was the metal ceiling in the drug store.
This prevented the flames breaking
through to the floor above.
In an apartment on the rear Of the
second floor lived Mrs. Aronson. fifty
years old and blind, and her four sons
They were among the first to discover
the fire. and the four sons carried their
mother down the smoke-filled stairway
to the street.
Policeman John Howard of the Madi-
son street station, had also discovered
the fire and turned in an alarm. To-
gether with Policeman Haynes he then
ran to the building and helped get the
frightened tenants out.
The drug store was completely guttcd
and the damage was estimated at 5000.

Was Jealous.
CALMLY CONFESSED
THAT SHE WAS GUILTY.
When Taunted by Victim She
Became Bind with Fury and
Stabbed Her to Death, In
flicting Seventeen Wounds.

Jersey Justice made Q new record for

hours and four minutes from. the time
she was brought into the courtroom

Without so much as culver of her
| lip she told how she had stabbed Rosa
Salza seventeen times because Rosa

said that after living for that length

cADs AND PHOTOGRAPHY.

An evening local contemporary asks: May a cad photograph a presidents daughter without her permfssion?" This is hysterically vague. President of what? Of the United States, bank. or a gasfitters' union? No, a cad should not be allowed to photograph any woman without her permission, be her name Roosevelt, Jones or Ferguson (with the accent either on the first or on the second syllable). A cad should not be trusted with any lethal weapon. But this particular emphasis of rro- test against an unwarrantable libel ty befits court journal rather than re- publican newspaper. Our contempor- ary should remember that the fierce light which beats upon throne serves the purpose of the irTeverent photo- grapher A certain publicity Is neces- sary to continuous success, and al- though a daughter may naturally be as shrinking as Sheliey's sensitive plant she should be willing to sacrifice shyness on the family altar.
 We do not approve the suggestion that such prominent" persons as Miss Roosevelt should go about with "a stout walking stick" to smash the cameras of offensive photographers" {; the violence of Carrie Naticn, is enough for one country.

A SOP TO cERBERUS.

The report that Russia would de- clare all ports in her Asiatic posses sions free is confirmed. The object of the concession is to remove the cause of the objections of the United States and Great Britain to Russian occupation of Manchuria. It is to be regretted that the Russian government did not make the concession before the commencement of hostilities-in which event 1t is very possible that war might not have been declared.
 The interest of the United States in the conflict between Russia and Japan is based upon the hope that the out come will make for the greater freedom of commerce We are not engaged through the sympathies ordinarily .n- voked by ties of race, language or in- spiration. We have nothing in com mon with either the Japanese or the Russians. although there has been some superficial evidence of sympathy with Japan. based upon the presump- tion that. as a progressive people, the Japanese might be depended upon to encourage commerce with the whCle world instead of attempting to restrict lt in their own interests-thc policy of Russia.
 The government of the czar has given plenty Of evidence Cf its reac- tiOnary tendencies. It is known that the czar himself is a gloomy and at times fanatical reactionary-diferin greatly from his father. The policy of St. Petersburg has been 10 disregard the claims or other nations and to ex- tend the territories of the empire with . view to bringing strange peoples within the reach of the Russian tax gatherer. Ire far east. in the pos session Of Russia would remain as ef- fectively closed to the advances of oc- cidental civilization as though it re- malned under control of the yellow peoples. In fact it might be even more effectively sealed by the strength Of the wall that Russia would erect.
