Michael Foley Of Twelfth
Street, a Septuagenarian,
Escapes in His Night
clothes From Home
VICTIM OF PNEUMONIA
AGED MAN OVERCOME By THE
INTENSE COLD LIES DOWN IN
A LOT At COLES AND FIF-
TENTH srREETs-HE is NOW
IN HOSPITAL.

Michael Foley. seventy years old. of
No 26S Twelfth street. who has been
seriously i'll of pneumonia for several
weeks and had become delirious, escaped
from his sick bed shortly before one
o'clock this morning. He walked through
the streets for several blocks in the in
tense cold clad only in his bed clothes
and was found lying in a vacant lot at
Coles and Fifteenth streets. He was
freezing and shouting in his delirium.
His shouting probably saved his life, as
It drew the attention of policeman on
post and people who reside in the neigh
borhood. An ambulance was summoned
and the old gentleman was taken to st.
Francis Hospital.
Foley lived with his son and the lat
ter's wife. They were worn out with
watching at his bedside and fell asleep.
The lot in which the afflicted man was
found was not far from the foot of the
Thirteenth street viaduct. A party of
young people returning from dance on
the Hill first espied the undressed man
fleeing along the street in the direction
of the meadows. They took him for
gEost. but when they saw him fall face
downward on the ice they investigated.
Patroman Kelly soon appeared upon the
scene and rang up an ambulance. The
old mans feet were frozen. He had fed
over the iee-covered pavements bare
footed.

MRS. TOLLA'S LAST HOPE

Unless the strong hand of mercy in
teryenes before the time fixed for her
hanging, Mrs. Antoinette Tolla, the
young Italian woman under sentence of
death in the Hackensack jail, has less
than two days to live.
Her only hope lies in the final decision
of the Board of Pardons at the meeting
convened to-day to hear what new evi-
dence former Prosecutor p. w. Stage
and Mrs. Mary Quackenbos have to
offer in behalf of the unfortunate
woman.
This is the woman's last resort.
Either her sentence will be commuted
or she will die. If Mrs Quackenbos.
the young New York lawyer called into
the case by Countess Frances Massiglia.
wife of the Italian Consul. is able to
convince her stern hearers that the con-
demned woman did not have fair play
in her trial, it will mean victory and
life--a professional triumph for the
woman attorney and salvation from the
hateful gallows for Mrs. Tolla
In the meanwhile Hangman Van Hise,
Jerseys professional deathsdealer. is
making preparations at the old Bergen
County jail for Fridays tragedy. Re
prieve or no reprieye, he wiIkh have his
horrid gibbet all ready. with string

THE RIVER IS RISING
VERY. RAPIDLY.
TODAY
Red River Of the North is
Breaking Up EARLY This
Spring.

The Red River OF the North is ris-
ing rapidly here and the ice is going
out quite as rapidly. While there is
absolutely no danger Of food unless
caused by the headwater sending
down a large surplus of water in the
near future, the river has been risiIi 3
very rapidly and is almost bank full
from Fargo to the boundary.
All along the river preparations are
being made against a flood but this is
merely precautionary Here at Grand
Forks the river is far from bank full
where the banks are, high but the
bottoms are being overaowed in many
places.
While the ice is quite solid yet in
some places, it has been broken loose
from the banks in many places by the
force of the rising waters and in 9TH
ers has been ground up and the chan
mel of the river is free from it.
At the present rate it will not be
long until the river will be free from
ice, and then the danger of high
waters will be very small for the next
six weeks.

BANQUET AT NJ. E. CHURCH.
Semi-Menthly Supper Of the Young
Mems Bible Class,

The Young Mems Bible class of the
First Methodist church gave their
regular semi-monthly supper in the
dining rooms of the. church Friday
night. DR.. Robertson, president of
Wesley college, was the speaker of
the evening. The doctor gave an in
teresting and encouraging report of
his recent trip to the east in the in
terests of the college.
The Young Mems Bible class under
the enthusiastic leadership of Dr..
Stewart and Mr.. Porte, is growing in
interest and in members, and the fort
nightly suppers of the class with
. their short talks and witticisms are
among the happiest social functions
of the church.
1t is the worthy ambition of the
leaders to increase the membership
of the class to one hundred at an early
date.
1t is surely an inspiration to be as
ISOLATED with this splendid body of
young men of high ideals.
The speaker for the next meeting

The order in question is due, it is
said, to the strike rumors that. are
now prevalent in coal mining circles.
Local coal men claim that until the
wage question in the east is definitely

the price Of coal to decrease. If there
is no immediate settlement Of the
wage differences 1t is possible that
the price of coal will be raised on the

The supply is as good IL not better
