GIRL SAVES CHILDREN
CONQUERS MAN WITH PISTOL
IN Observation-Disclosures
DISPLAY OF COURAGE
BY YOUNG WOMAN.

Chicago. In struggle with Rob-
ert Braun, in which girl braved a
magazine pistol and was beaten about
the face until she was all but UNI
conscious, the victim worsted her OPP
ponent and by remarkable display
of courage probably saved the lives
of four children.
The unequal fight occurred in the
parlor of the home of George Eich-
ner, on East Illinois street, and Miss
Emma Eichner, 18 years old, was
the heroines 1t began the instant
that Braun, who was nursing fancied
wrongs against Eichner, knocked at
the door early in the evening and
asked to be admitted.
# No. you'd better come around to-
morrow said the girl.
I'm here now and I'm here to
stay" exclaimed Braun, pulling the
magazine pistol from his pocket and
forcing his way into the hall.
Miss Eichner seized his arms and
with all her strength tried to push
the intruder back. Together they
struggled until reaching the parlor
door. Braun noticed the four chill
dren. Then he leveled his pistol at
the children, who huddled under a
davenport in corner and was about
to fire. But the girl released her
grip on his other arm and, with both
hands, forced the muzzle of the
weapon toward the ceiling as Braun
firedsS Unable to bring the pistol in
to play, Braun beat the girl until
blood flowed from half a dozen
wounds in her face, but she stubborn
ly chung to him.
Again and again he fred, but to
no purpose. Finally the gun clogged
and while he was examining it Miss
Eichner pushed him out Of the front
door and closed and locked it. Braun
then rushed to the tailor shop of
an acquaintance, Joseph Stumpf, shot
him in the shoulder and in the hand
and was about to IRE third time.
when once more the gun clogged. He
drew another weapon from his pocket
but missed fire. While examining it
he shot one of his own fingers of.
He then abandoned his attack, vis-
tied doctors Office and was arrest

condition.
