z OFFER BLOOD
TO SAVE CHILD

NEW YORK, June 2s-An ad-
vertisement in newspaper yes
terday morning asked if any one
would help to save a little girls life
by giving her blood that her wasted
body lacked. Before the day was over
twelve responses to the appeal had
come to Mrs. Jennie Blumenthal OF
3 Jackson street, Manhattan, the child s
mother.
Three of those who answered were
women, and last night Mrs. Blumen-
thai wept in her joy over the goodness
of heart she had come to know in the
day. She will not be able to pay the
reward that such sacrifices usually
command, yet none of those who Wis
tied her yesterday seemed to care
because of that.
Dora Blumenthal is the child for
whom the gift of blood is asked. She
is 10 years old, and since April 20 has
been a patient in the New York hos
pital In West Fifteenth street. A week
ago her right foot was amputated be-
cause of an affection of one of Its
bones, and she has grown weaker so
steadily since that time that only blood
TRANSMISSION can save her, the ply
sicians say.
Mrs. Blumenthal wanted to give her
own blood. but the physicians were
compelled to reject her. She was in de-
spair. Every visit to the hospital
showed her that Dora was growing
weaker. other complications were set
ting In, among them a swelling that
spread all over the child's body.
Then Mrs. Blumenthal was urged TO
ask through an advertisement II some
one would not do for Dora what the
mother could not do.
"Oh, the news is so goodi" she said
last night to reporter for The Herald.
my little one has suffered so much.
Three months she has been so: three
months she has suffered so that
should die If I went through 1t. And
now there are so many who ask me
IL their blood really will save her, so
many want to know If a little thing
like that will make her we'll again. A
little thing!? oh, 1t is so big. so big!
Twelve have asked me this today.
Three of them were women. 1t Is too
good to be true!"
And the timeworn phrase sounded
fresh with the strength the motneI
gave to 1t.
Dora Blumenthal Is the second OF six
children. She is remarkably bright,
even for the east side quarter In which
she lives. She was as healthy as she
was happy until one day early IN
February, when she came home from
school complaining that her right lot
hurt her.
Her mother rubbed It with alcohol
and Dora thought it felt better. The
next day. however, 1t hurt still more
and a doctor gave her liniment: Still
the foot continued to hurt, and Mrs
Blumenthal took the child to. Mt. sinai
hospital. There DR.. Burke found that
one of the bones in the instep was
diseased, and informed the mother tna1
1t would have to be scraped.
The operation for that purpose wa Was
the first of four. Dora bore them
bravely, and even when the surgeons
found that her foot would have to be
cut off If her life was to be saved she
smiled. A week ago this operation was
carried out.

PASADENA, June so.-Pasadena's retiring
millionaire city commissioner, DR.. r. Schin-
man, and Pasadena's remaining millionaire
commissioner, John V. Eliot, both make
statements denying in toto intimations in a

posed to the municipal light plant. DR..

was being groomed for mayor. Il am not
now nor ever will be candidate he said.

CONSIDER BUILDING PLANS
OF ARROYO SEC0 BRIDGE

PASADENA, June sO.-That the bridge 'corn-
mittee of the board of trade considers 1t has
about solved the problem of bridging the
Arroyo Seco at the west end of Colorado
street In the new plans which have been
submitted by williams & Nlskian, local firm,
for a structure of intermediate height, be-
tween the high and low bridges proposed Is
indicated by special executive meeting or
the city council this evening to talk over
plans for submitting a bond issue for the city s
share of the COST This meeting was called by
Mayor Farley, it is said at the suggestion OF
Councilman Hotaling, who is also a member
Of the bridge committee.
The executive committee is said to have
power to act in negotiations with c. B. SEQ
Vile for a right Of way for the approach
over his land.
Mayor Earloy stated after the council ses-
sion that no conclusion was reached as to a
bond issued owing to the fact that the council
did not have the plans and does not know
what would be the proportionate share of the
city and county in constructing the bridge.
He also said that the cost of the right OF way
through the scoville property is still an un-
certain quantity. The cost Of the bridge Itself
may not be more than 100000. 1t is now esu-
mated owing to the fact that 1t has been
lowered to a level of fifty-hve feet below the
proposed high structure SO as not to obsuuct
the view Of nearby property owners.

To HOLD ELECTION ON
HIGH SCHOOL MAT TER
Pasadena, for Second Time, to
Take Up Question of
Bonds and Site

PASADENA June 90.-The popular clamor
for another high school bond election was met
today by the board of education with a de-
cision to call an election for half a million
dollars July 22.
In so. doing the board has attempted to meet
one of the objections raised at the last cleo
tion, that as to the site proposed, by sug-
gesting four sites from which the voters are
to choose. The site having the largest num-
ber of votes will be that selected for the new
high school. In order to do this there will be
two ballots and two ballot boxes. The election
will be held at the Wilson school building the
polls being open from o'clock until sundown.
Even under this arrangement the poard
seems to have antagonized some Of the resi-
dents of the northwest district, where high
school site far out OF the beaten pain was
offered free Among the four best sites chosen
this does not appear, and, since the north
westerners were first to suggest the popular
vote proposition to select site some OF them
express disappointment at the decision OF the
school board today.
FOUR SITES OFFERED
At the last election there were two distinct
grounds of opposition to the bonds. One was
that the proper site was not selected, and one
was that the board OF education did not Sc
cure detailed plans in advance OF calling the
election and inform the voters just how the
money was to be spent. This has not been
done for the second election. the board stating
that the district is in no position to secure
such plans before the money is voted.
1t is provided In the resolution passed today
that agents or owners for the sites selected
submit to the board by July 20 satisfactory
prices, options and acreage Descriptions and
prices will then be printed upon the ballots
for the sites
The four sites to be submitted include the
Villa street site, which was before proposed
the Colorado street site, which was its great
est rival; the Hardness ranch site, which is
favorably spoken of except that 1t is rather
far out, and a new site, which was not ready
for submission before and which is closer in
than any OF the others. 1t lies at the corner
of Herkimer street and Hudson avenue and
includes ten acres.
7. d. Allin Is named as inspector and Mar
Gus Mercer and o. g. Wood as judges of the
election.
