GIRL RISKS LIFE
IN THEATRE FIRE
With Burning Embers Falling
About Her, Heroine Guards
Employers Money.

Like the Roman soldier who stood at
his post when Vesuvius destroyed Her.
culaneum, Miss Leah Weisberger. of 361
South Seventh street, cashier in the
Crystal Theatre, 261 Springfield avenue,
remained in her cage, guarding her en-
ployer's money while sparks rained
about her last night. Several times
burning embers fell on her dress, but
she calmly brushed them away. other
employees called to her to flee, but she
courageously stuck to her post until
the money was removed to a safe place.
Miss Weissberger's cage is directly
underneath the booth in which the
moving. picture machine is operated. A
fuse blew out in the machine-room, set
ting fire to q roll of film. Instantly
dense columes of smoke filled the thea
tire which was crowded at the time.
The burning embers fell through the
ceiling into the cage of Miss Weissber-
ger.
Only for the presence of mind of Pa
trolman John Laubenstein, jr., of the
Fourth Precinct, there would have been
a panic. IauDenSteln, WHO wal stand
ing in the front, saw the danger of a
panic and rushed into the building and

tainted, but was soon revived.
The operator of the machine, Louis
Wenorsky, of 105 Broome street, fell
from the booth while trying to eXtin-
guish the blaze. He was badly burned
and was taken to the City Hospital.
The fire did damage amounting to $100.
II never saw a Drawer girl than Miss
W~eissberger." said the proprietor of
the theatre today. she stood in the
cage when any other girl, or man
either, would have fed. She certainly
deserves all the credit that EAR be
given her for the way in which she
acted"

AER0NAUT, IN FALL,
LANDS IN WIRES
Thousands Witness Drew's Mar
row Escape from Death-Made
Flights in Jersey.

NEW YORK, Sept. George b..
balloon has made scores of sensational
ascensions in New Jersey, had a very
narrow escape from death last night.
He assembled from Palisades Park, N.
j., at $50 o'clock.
Nearing the earth" he said, Il shall
slip from the trapeze bar of the first
parachute and reach the ground by
means of a second parachute
He had done this frequently. some
times dropping into the Hudson river.
He wears a bathing suit on all his
trips OF this kind.
Spectators cheered the man when he
shot into the air, but held their breath
a few moments later when they saw
him struggling with his parachutes, on
of which had become ~entangled.
Suddenly, when at a height of nearly
1000 feet, a gust of wind struck the
balloon, and like a streak, at the rate
of more than forty-ive miles an hour,
1t was whisked across the river.
Drew, as he said later, managed TO
'-eep cool. His second parachute rope
had been ~disentangled by him with a
few deft twists, and, tucking 1t under
his arm, he sat on the bar of para
chute No. / and cast free.
The stiff breeze caught the balloon
and whirled it, a quivering, bizarre
shaped mass. to the east, and swung
the daring aeronaut clear over the park
and yer Riverside drive.
More than a thousand persons. on the
Manhattan shore saw the man descend
ing rapidly, saw him discard the first
parachute and nimbly swing on to the
bar of the second parachute rapeze.
While the crowd of people in the
streets watched breathlessly. Drew
went smashing against a network of
wires. The rope of his parachute be-
came entangled, and there he hung for
a moment. until the win and the slope
of the wires downward caused the
parachute to slide to within ten feet of
the side of the Lincoln apartment
house. The man was more than -four
stories above the ground. To drop
meant death,
Policemen got a rope. They lower d
it, n Drew tied it about his waist.
But he had become entangled in the
cords of the parachute and could not
get free.
The bluecoats lowered a knife to him
at the end of the other rope, and he
cut himself free. He slammed against
the side of the building and was
stunned for a second after swinging
clear from the network of wires.
Slowly the aeronaut was then dragged
along the side of the wall to the other
side of the Lincoln. He was gotten
through a window in safety.

new IDEA TICKET
IS NOW COMPLETE
Asher Lambert Named for Board
Of W0rks-COlby Wakes Am=
bilious for Future.

With the Endorsement of Asher
Lambert, of the Ninth ward, for Re-
publican candidate for the Board of
works by the advisory committee of
the Republican League for Limited
franchises n Equal Taxation, at its
meeting last night, the Ne Idea
ticket is complete, unless at the last
moment Colonel Austen Colgate, who
was also Endorsed for county chairman
at the meeting, withdraWs from the
Assembly race. That. however, ac-
cording to the talk last night, is a re-
mote possibility.
The talk of the evening was made
by former Senator Everett Colby, who
was one of the few of the acknowl-
edged leaders present at the meeting.
lie was not disposed to say anything
when twice called on by those pres
ent, after Colgate had been decided
upon for the championship candidacy,
but consented after a while. He
urged greater efforts to further plans
of the New Idea wing, and was loud
In his praises of Colonel Colgate.
Colonel Colgate" he said, SIS so
close a friend of mine that l didn't
want to go into a discussion of him
for chairman before his name had
been considered by you. / believe we
have in him ar ideal candidate. The
time has come when we want a
straight, able, long-headed, sympa-
thetic man for the job, and | believe
we have got him in Colonel Colgate"
Mr.. Colby went on to say that the
New Idea movement was only just
beginning to get up speed, in spite of
the statements to the effect that it
was dying out. He would not enter
tain the idea of consolidating with the
Regulars for a moment, he declared.
In my opinion" he said later, the
time has arrived when we should en-
ter national politics. There isn't a
Republican in this room, or a decent
Republican In the whole State, who
wasn't ashamed of the conditions at
Washington last winter. People tell
us that our fight is local; that we
should centre our activities right here,
but I believe that we should put our
selves in touch and in line with other
organizations of this character through
out the country. 1t is my suggestion
that we add the word Progressive
to our name, making it the Progress
i've Republican League"
In the absence of William Fellowes
Morgan, former A~ssemblyman Ulysses
B.. Brewer, of the Eighth ward, acted
as chairman.
The big mass-meeting. planned for
next week to start things with a rush,
is still uncertain. Work will be be-
gun tonight. however, with a meeting
at Roever's Hall, in the Ninth ward.
