Joe Ridley has Just heard from the
little girl whose lite he saved from the
swirhn2 eddjes Of the East River off pier
No. 81 nine years ago, where John Young,
her demen,ed father, had thrown her.
Mr.. Ridley jumped into the water on that
summer night in 1900 and rlskod his life
to save that of the four-year-old child.
For tins act of bravery he received u gold
medal from the Humane Society and was
made u member Of the American Cross Of
Honor.
Cherry Hill soon forgot about the INCL
dent, and uobooy thought again Of little
Marguerite Young OF what had become of
her, But Whereabouts everybody knows
that Joe" Ridley has received SIX medals
for saving drowning persons FROM the river.
In his home, at No. 800 Front street, Mr.
Ridley has Just been pleasantly surprised
by hearing from Marguerite, who is now a
petty grl of Thirteen, a high school student
and the Adopted daughter of AIR. and Mrs.
Janes H. Wells, OF South Berlin, N. X. MIR.
W els is q farmer.
3lr. and Mrs. Wells several days ago
red in a New York paper u story Of the
IIe saving exploits Of Mr.. Ridley in which
his star performance, the rescuing Of Mar
gueiite Young, was commenced upon
Tins was the FIRST authentic account they
had ever obtained Of the affair.

MIR. Ridley several days later received q

My Dear MIR. Rdley:-I am delighted
to heor about YOU, and So are my mamma
and papa. | am sending you a picture
OF myself, and hope 10 have yours soon.
This is where l attend school. The win

This was accompanied 10y the following
letter from Mrs. Wtis:-
''South New Berlin, ~.
"AIy Dear Mir. Ridley We have received
a newspaper clipping OF your twenty-ffth
Wedding anniversary, which also spoke Of
the number of persons You had rescued from
drowning. 1t also said thot the most noted
rescue was that Of little Marguerite Young.
Now, l thought you would be pleased to
know what had become Of her. Well, in the
fall, or late in the summer Of 1901 a party Of
Fresh Air children came to South New Ber-
lH4, and among them were Ruby and Mar
guerlte Young, of Cherry street.
Il took them for two weeks, and little
Maggie, rs we call her, was such a bright
pretty child that we kept her and love her
dearly. She is aow thirteen years old and a
student in the high school at GiIbertsyille,
having completed the studies Of the pre-aoa-
demic department this fall. We think she
is doing well for so young Il child.

THE AUSTRIAN MILITARY BALLOON.

The Parsoval dirigjble balloon recently
bought for the Austro -Hungarian army made a
successful trial ascent on November 26,h at
FIschameud, a village on the Danube near
Vienna. The balloon, which Is so metrrs
long, carried four passengers, and was pro-
PEELED by four-cyIinder Austrian Daimler
70-h. p, motor.
The talloon made a successful circular trip,
which lasted about seven hours, on Wednes-
day. Starting from Fischamend, it passed
rapidly over Venua, descended to within a
few Yards of the ground at Schonbrunn,
where it executed some neat evolutions be-
fore the Emperor, and, rising again, passed

ing point Of order made by Mr.. Fitz-
gerald of New York, who contended
that there was no law authorizing such
an appropriation.
In order to meet the objection to the
tariff board on the part OF many demo
Gratis and some republicans, Mr.. Taw-
ney proposed another amendment
which appropriated $250,0O0 practically
for the same purpose, with the added
provision that it was "to enable the
president to give to congress informa-
ton of the states of the union and
recommend to their consideration such
measures as he shall judge necessary
and expedient," etc.
Under this wording of the measure
it is understood that the president
should send to congress any informa-
tion which may be collected under the
proposed appropriation.
Representative Fitzgerald promptly
made point of order against the new
amendment and ending his argument
upon it the house adjourned until to-
morrow.

LORIMER SPEAKS
Not to the Senate, but to News
papers and Says He Hasn't
Made Up Mind.
MAY ASK AN INVESTIGATION
Has Really Been Too Busy Opening
His Banks to Take Much Inter-
est in Bribery Matter.

Washington, May Ex-senator Lori
mer talked last night. After "a hours
of seclusion, following his arrival in
Washington, he received few newspa-
per correspondents. He had just fin
ished a late dinner with his son and
| his daughter-in-law in their suite,
where he had been behind locked doors
since his arrival He talked briefly,
and practically for the first time, about
the charges of bribery in connection
with his election to the senate.
81 have not decided just what / am
going to do,'' said Mr.. Lorimer in reply
to questions. 81 was busily engaged
in an effort to launch my bank and
l am so constituted that can only at
tend to one matter at time.
Gets His Banks started.
Getting bank started is a pretty
big job for any man under the most
favorable circumstances. / have sue
ceeded notwithstanding the obstacles
thrown in my way in getting the banks
started. They are now open for busi-
ness. and have been organized in such
way that they can-talNez zeaFe-of them
selves.
Relieved of further necessity to give
them my undivided attention, am free
to take up the matter. 1t has only been
within the last few days that 1 have
been able to consider other affairs. My
clerks have accumulated for me a vast
mass of material relating to the
charges that have been made. have
brought it along with me, and am now
digesting it.
Wants Little Air.
"As I have stated, l do not know
what will do. l have been busy since
my arrival in debating. In fact, am
feeling that l want a little free air,
and for that reason I am about to go
out with the children for an automo-
bile ride.
81 am preparing to make speech
in case l should decide to present the
matter to the senate. That is matter
which 1 must decide for myself. 1 am
not seeking and do not intend to ac-
