being suffocated yesterday afternoon

pots of burning sulphur, which had
gone out. Holding his breath, DR..
Sanders rushed into the room,
where an extra amount of sulphur
was burning. Just as he picked up
the pot the door slammed to and
locked. Unable to open it he drop
ped the receptacle and rushed to the
window and jumped out. He would
have doubtless collapsed in few
seconds.

MOTHER AND BABE
UNDER WAGON TOP
ON BARE GROUND
Miss Agnes Mahony Finds
Worst Case Of Destitution
Yet.
Little Cover, Medical Atten.
ton Required.
RUSHED TO CITY HOSPITAL.

Under the shelter OF a wagon top
on the bare ground. in the woods,
the most pitiful case that has come
under the observatio of organized
charity was found yesterday. In this
hut an able bodied man with a young
wife in a delicate condition, and a
child eleven months old, were living.
exposed to the weather and with
only coarse food.
The case was reported to the Phil
anthropic department of the wom-
ans club and the district nurse, Miss
Agnes Mahony. began an investiga-
ton Immediately. She secured the
permission of Chief of Police Sing
cry for the use Of the patrol wagon,
and Patrolman Walter England ac-
companied her to the place, which
was located in the woods Just beyond
the old fair grounds on the Mayfield
road.
in TINS dismal place was Mrs.
Maud O'Neil, 10 years old, who is
III, and her young child. Until last
week her husband owned a horse and
wagon. but he disposed of them. and
kept only the wagon top which was
placed on the ground. In It was
bed spring with scanty amount of
coverings, which occupied most of
the Enclosure. A small stove at the
Opening of the hut was supposed to
keep the occupants warm. and the re-
naming small amount of floor space
was only the bare earth. /.
The mother is in a ptlful condi-
ton. and to add to her suffering she
has an abcess on her jaw and medi-
cal attention is needed. Mrs. O'Neil
was thankful for aid and stated that
she had informed her husband that
unless he provided her with better
home that 1t would be necessary for
her to return to her parents. She
was placed in the patrol wagon, and
the baby was wrapped in one of the
horse blankets TO make the trip to
Riverside hospital. where she was
admitted. Miss Mahony says that II
is the worst case of restitution that
she has been called on TO assist since
she has been in charge OF the char
ity work in Paducah.
