WAKENS WITH NECK IN MOOSE
Huge Man in Adamlc Costume lr,-
vades New York Girls Room
at Dawn


Special to The Herald.
NEW YORK, Aug 2S.--A nude man,
six feet tall, armed with clothes line,
one end OF 1t shaped into running
moose, and wearing a linen mask and a
ribbon about his neck, crawled through
the open window of the sleeping apart
ment occupied by Miss Henrietta Wein-
berg at 1740 Madison avenue early to-
day. Miss Weinberg, who Is an ex-
tremely pretty woman, is engaged to be
married. The story comes from her
and is borne out by the neighbors, who
saw the intruder.
Miss Weinberg was awakened by
feeling hands upon her. When she
tried to relieve herself of the mans
embrace, crying out hysterically, she
discovered that her neck was caught In
rope. The man had managed, with
out disturbing the young woman, to
place the moose about her neck, fasten-
ing one end of the rope to the bedpost
and drawing it almost taut. Miss Wein-
berg struggled in the grasp of the
man, but was prevented from effective
ly graphing with him because of the
rope. At the same time her struggles
brought a stronger tension on the
moose, causing 1t to close tight around
her neck, almost strangling her. This
prevented the young woman from cry
ing out.
She was almost on the point of faint
ing when, with renewed effort, she sue
ceeding in reaching the cord and reliev-
ing the tension. This enabled her to
scream, and she screamed with good
effect. Her cries frightened the man,
who sprang through window leading
into the yard and scrambled over the
fence.
Miss Weinberg released herself from
the rope and rushed to the window,
screaming. She aroused the neighbor-
hood and several persons saw the nude
man, who was armed with a pair of
shears, but he escaped

FROG SCAREs SNAKE CHARMER
Harmless Little Reptile Causes Fond
ler of Cobra to Flee in
Abject Terror


Special to The Herald.
WASHINGTON, Aug. 2S.-The COM
plexity of woman's nature was illus
trated several nights ago in an amusing
incident at the Elks' flower carnival.
Among the attractions is Miss What
ever-her-name-is,' who sits in canvas
pit and plays with bunch of snakes,
that would give near-soak fits, just as
child would play with doll baby.
The night in question the woman had
an unusually large audience, composed
principally of ladies, who spent most of
their time turning their heads away
from the "horrible Spectacle" but who
were 10th to leave until they had gotten
the worth of their dimes. and the
snake charmer'' was allowing a coal
black reptile, about six feet in length,
to explore her dental cavity, when a
youngster tossed harmless little frog
into the snake den.
Contrary to the expectations of the
kid, the snakes failed to sit up and take
notice-in fact, they gave every indi-
cation of having just left hearty meal
but not so with the "charmer." She
let out scream that startled every
body in the garden, and her wild
scramble to avoid the frightened frog
aroused even the snakes from their
lethargy. The frog was finally removed
by an attendant, and in a few minutes
the "charmer'' was sitting calmly in
one corner of the den with a cobra
coiled about her neck and a black snake
wrapped around one arm.
