William Wahle, the former Brooklyn
singer, who was a candidate for king
of the Mardi Gras at Coney Island last
fall. pleaded guilty to bigamy before

Wahle obtained more than $1,000 from
him by forging his name to indorse-
ments IN checks and cashing them.

Twenty-three years ago today the

and meat couldn't be had for any price
whatsoever; for today is the twenty
third anniversary of the day after Big
Blizzard, the like of which never struck
Newark or n other part of the
United States before or since.
Twas a hne contrast that old resi-
dents drew yesterday between that
blizzard and It's anniversary. Yester-

shot IF rain at eventide, was far dis

day in 'sS, when not a Single wheel

Snow. fallen and falling, reared 1T
self in ten-foot drifts and hummocks

cars were stalled in the DIR its, and
were left deserted while their passen-
gers fled for shelter; stores couldn't
open because their owners were Unable
to tunnel their way through the noun
tains of snow that lowered far aooye
the doors.
Twas a Draw day in Newark, but II
pretty nearly made Little Rocky's''
fortune.
He was the newsboy. He used to sell
New York papers to the big men of
this town. That morning he got a cart
man to haul him as far toward Jersey
City as the horse would hold out, and
when the horse gave up he got down
and ploughed his way through the
drifts afoot to Jersey City and then
ploughed his way afoot back again. II
took the stamina and endurance of a
couple of Northwestern Indians to
make that trip, but Little Rocky did
1t, and when he carted his papers
around to the snowed-in rich folk late
that afternoon several paid him
$40 apiece for the first live thing they'd
seen to read since the storm struck.
Little Rocky admitted he made $50
clear on that days sales.

BURGLAR FLEES
As WOMAN RISES;
GAS JETS OPEN
BelIevilIe Woman Escapes Loss
from Bold Thief and Pur.
sues Him Outdoors.

To be aroused from her sleep and
TO find a burglar standing directly ovet
her in her room was the thrilling ex-
p~erience early today of Mrs. Samuel
W. Haas, of ia Joralomen street, Belle
vile. Mrs. Haas and the rest of her
family also had a narrow escape from
death by asphyxiation. as the would
be robber had turned on several gas
Jets In full, and the woman was slightly
i'll today from the effects.
Mrs. Haas, who is near-sighted, mis-
took the burglar for her daughter
Laila, a 17-year-old schoolgirl, and at
one time she also thought the in
truder was her husband, and she was
about TO place her hand on the shout
der Of the intruder when the latter
eoolly remarked, "Oh. that's all right, 2"
and escaped.
Sees Burglar in Room.
Mrs. Haas was awakened at 2 o'clock
by what she thought was a noise by
Laila in the next room. She looked
about her and saw the tail figure of a
man standing still close to the bed.
She raised herself to a half-sitting po-
sition, and owing to the fact that she
Is near-sighted she was in doubt as to
what the object was, as the room was
completely dark.
us that you, Laila?" called Mrs.
Haas.
There was no response, and Mrs.
Haas then chided "Laila'' for falling
to answer her. Mrs. Haas says that
she stood up and was going to place
her hand upon the shoulder of the
man, when he walked into Laila's
room. which is adjoining.
The girl by this time was aroused
by the remarks made by her mother
and she jumped up and all but colllded
with the unwelcome visitor.
Why, that is apa," declared the
girl.
Papa nothing" fairly screamed her
mother; that Is a stranger. Is that You.
SAM" followed up the frightened
woman.
"oh, that's all right" was the
strangers rejoinder.
The thief then hurried OFF and
walked down the real stairs and
escaped by way of the kitchen door
into the yard.
Mrs. Haas then went to the front
window and screamed: stop thief"
This brought several residents Of
Joralo1nen street and some from Wash
ington avenue to the Haas home,
Patrolman William Sullivan vas also
attracted.
When Mrs. Haas returned TO her
home she found that at least two gas
Jets there were turned on and that the
place was nearly flooded with gas. The
fact that a window in the room was
partly opened proved to be the means
which saved the Haas family from
death.
Two valuable coats, one belonging to
Mrs Haas and the other to Laila were
put in the oom and apparently were
about to be taken by the thief.
Mrs. Haas said that, Judging from
the voice of the man, he was a youth.
The woman's husband, who Is a travel
ing salesman, is in Maine.
