coming alarming; that such were act
ing as detriment to the legitima te
liquor dealers who were required 10

1er.of such places was the cause of the

ness. particularly in the residence dis

POLICEMAN A REAL HERO.
Extinguishes Bomb in Puddle, Saw
ing 200 From Harm.

NEW YORK, June Policeman
Edward Mahoney risked his life to-
day by seizing bomb with light
ed fuse and dipping it into a puddle
of water in the street. His act saw
ed about 200 men from possible
death or injury.
When Salvatore Maculaso, bar
ber who works in a shop on the first
floor of a Bowery lodging house,
went to the place to open 1t this
morning he saw the bomb. He knew
that Tony Geroli, owner of the bar
ber shop. had been receiving Black
Hand letters, and he stood petrified
with fright.
Mahoney noticed the man and
went to him. Maculaso could not
speak, but pointed at the sputtering
thing under the basement door. Ma
loney ran for it and tried to stamp
out the fuse, but failed. Then he
picked up the bomb and ran to the
puddle.
The police believe that the bomb,
which was in the form of box
about a foot square, was intended to
wreck the building. In the restau-
rant on the second floor large num-
ber of men were eating, and on the
upper floors 1S5 others were asleep.
Examination of the bomb showed

ton She Loved.

BOSTON. June 1.-The Massa-
chusetts General Hospital houses one
OF the strangest cases of its career
in that of Miss Mary kearney, ageo
IT, who was brought to the hospital
last week after taking a dose of poi
son. After proper antidotes had
been administered and she had re-
gained consciousness, the hospital
officials asked her reason for at
tempting her life.
The girl told them that she hao
been an inmate of the institution be-
fore and SO loved the place and its
work that she long debated how she
could enter again. She thought of
poison and procured solution,
which she had taken when she was
found suffering from its effects on a
street in Dorchester.
The hospital officials talk of adopt
ing the girl and making ner the hos
pital mascot. Her one ambition is
TO learn TO be nurse and live In the
hospital her lifetime.
