FORTUNE FOR LOST HEIRESS
100000 Left to Harriet RIinn, 30
Years Old, Whose Relatives Last
Heard of Her in Hospital

Special to The Herald.
PHILADELPHIA, Pa, Nov 10.-Mrs.
Charles Havens of 226 Pine street, this
city, is seeking an heiress who is lost
and probably suffering from illness and
poverty while a fortune of 100000 is
awaiting her.
The heiress is Miss Harriet Blinn, an
S0-ye ar-old woman, who formerly lived
at sos Market street, Camden. Re-
Gently a sister of Miss Blinn died in
Chicago and left an estate of which the
Camden woman was left 100000
share.
In order that she might apprise Miss
Blinn of her good fortune, Miss Ha-
vens, whose husband is a nephew of
Miss Blinn and also an heir of the
estate, went to Camden yesterday.
1t was then that she learned that
the aged woman is missing. At the
request of Mrs Iavens the Camden
police began a search for Miss Blinn
and found that she had been taken
from the house at 505 Market street
on June 27 to the Cooper hospital to
be treated for senile dementia and that
she had left the institution on July Z.
Where she went to at that time IL
not known by the hospital authori-
ties.
While the Camden police will con-
tinue the search they have little hope
of finding Miss Blinn. They believe
that she may have wandered away
after leaving the hospital and fallen
into the hands of strangers.
Mrs. Havens also has asked the po-
lice of this city to make search foi
the aged woman, as she thinks there
is a possibility that she may have
wandered over here.

MOToRMAN SHOWS STUPIDITY
Serious Accident Narrowly AVerted
When Wires Fall on Pasadena
Short Line

The irresponsible action of a motor
man ON the Pasadena Short Line last
evening we'll nigh involved him and his
passengers in a serious accident. In
some unexplained manner the wires
became broken at Tourmaline street
and for fifty feet dangled on the
ground. delaying traffic for half an
hour.
A man with a lantern was sent back
to warn the car crews, but when
the motorman saw the waving signal
he went ahead, unconcerned as to
what it meant. Fortunately the wav-
ing of another lantern nearer the
broken wire stopped him before the car
was seriously entangled In the meshes,
but it was not due to any superior in
telligence on the part of the car en-
ploye that a serious accident was
aVerted.

Thirty years ago doctors carried a
lancet in their vest pocket and bled
people for all sorts of diseases and

PLAYMATES SEE
GIRL RUN DOWN
CHILD DASHES IN FRONT OF
CoLEGR0vE CAR
Only Child Of Eastern Widow Fatally
Crushed at Sunset Boulevard
and Bunker Hill Avenue.
Brakes at Fault

Sadie Cooper, the 7-year-old girl who
was struck by an inbound Colegrove car
at 1880 last night, died at the emergency
hospital at 1880. She had been re-
moved from the receiving hospital,
where she was taken soon after the ac-
cident to the emergency hospital, for
the reason that facilities were better
for treating her there. Her brain was
crushed and she was otherwise injured,
No thought of impending danger was
IN the little girls mind as she gaily
sang and romped with playmates at
Sunset and Bunker Hill last night. No
idea of the horrible fate she was soon
to meet caused her to look up from
her play; but instead her mind was
all on the pleasure of the moment, and
she sang the loudest of any and tried
to think of new games to play before
the time came for her to leave her COM
panions and make ready for her little
trundle bed.
Starts to Run
"You can't catch me-" she cried and
started to run from her little friends
across the street with several in hot
pursuit. But her followers stopped.
for they saw the great street car rush
ing toward them and bearing down
upon the little leader.
"Sadie! Sadie!" they called, en-
deavoring to shout warnings to her,
but they were too late and the little
body of the girl was crushed beneath
the wheels.
In horror the children witnessed the
crushing of their small companion,
while the motorman, who had done all
in his power to stop the car, stood at
his post, horror stricken. The wheels
stopped at last and gentle hands lifted
the mangled body of the child from
beneath the wheels and bore 1t tenderly
to it's mothers home at 6111s North
Bunker Hill.
From there the girl was taken to the
receiving hospital and physicians are
doing all in their power to keep the
spark of life aflame, although little
hope for her recovery is held out, and
they cannot tell the extent of her in
juries.
Sadie is the only child of Mrs. Coop
er. Her father died in Boston nearly
a year ago and nine months later the
family left the eastern city for Los
Angeles.
The car which crushed the little girl
was inbound Colegrove car No. 209 of
the Los Angeles-Pacific.
According to spectators it was run
ming at high speed and had no fend-
er. Recently the running time of the
cars on this line was cut down ten
minutes between Colegrove and Los
A9ngeles.
1t is stated by patrons that the cars
are frequently improperly equipped,
the brakes not being in working order,
and the men who run them are
green"
Since the running time of the cars
was decreased there has been narrow
escapes and one serious accident. in
which Mrs. Walter Wexford of Cole
grove was struck by a car. She now
lies at her home at the point of death.
In this accident the car was running
at high rate of speed. The woman
was deaf and did not hear it approach
ing or hear the sounding of the gong
by the motorman. The latter admitted
he saw the woman, but stated he
thought she would get off the tracks
before the car reached her.

Too Many Smiths for Him
Woman with the Hoe

When 1.-THE Man with the Hoe was
first printed one of the most widely
heard comments as to it's fitness to con-
ditions of American rural life was that
we had no such conditions in this coun-
try as inspired Millet's well-known
painting. Every one who went out from
New York to Nassau county in the last
fortnight to see the automobile racers
do their "tryouts" had occasion to
change his mind, If he held that opin-
women who work in the fields in that
at Z o'clock one could see groups of
these women on their way to work in
the fields with their skirts kirtled up
to their knees, their feet and legs in
nocent OF shoes and stockings. Many
OF them trundled baby wagons with
them, and all day long the babies would
lie out in the fields while their moth
ers. or temporary nurses, would be
hard at work In the fields hoeing or
wedding the crops. Although most of
these women We're of foreign birth. they
did not resemble the animal-like
women I'm Millet's canvases. for the
simple reason that they had already
absorbed some of the brightness of our
country folk and always had time to
show a keen interest, not only In the
flying racing machines, but also In
those OF a more leisurely speed, the
touring cars, and more particularly I'm
their occupants. for whom they had

LUCKY JACK

In the crosscut of the Lucky Jack
Shoshone on the northeastern extern
sion of the Montgomery-Sheshone, a
mass of stringers has been encountered
which run from So to ST.. They con-
sist of rhyolite, quartz and tale, mixed.
Some of these stringers are from Is to
20 inches in width and resemble in APP
p~earance the similar %stringers which
were found on the Montgomery-Sho-
shone which lead down to the famous
ore body in that mine. The crosscut Is
being run at the 100-foot level and IS
now in about los feet. The workings
of the Lucky Jack are but 1000 fees
from the shaft on Montgomery-Sho-
shone, for the extension of whose ledge
they are drifting.
