FIRE HEROINE
SAVES LIVES

For daring bravery In the rescue OF
her husband and her 7year-oid daugh-
ter from death in a fire early today,
Mrs. Maggie Taylor, a negress, earned
her right to place on the honor roll
of Newark fire heroines.
Her husband, Abraham Taylor,
awoke in their -ree-room apartment
on the third floor of the house at 1872
Barclay street, at 3:15 a. M, to find
the room filled with smoke. He dashed
to the door. opened it, and was driven
back by an overpowering draught OF
sitting air.
Mrs Taylor. wide-awake In an in.
stant, saw that their escape was cut
off. She ran to the window. which
overlooked the street. threw UP the
sash and called FOR help.
The flames were at her back, her lit
tie daughter Annie was crying piteous
ly, and her husband, beside her, was
paralyzed with fear.
Then she coolly climbed out Of the
window and let herself over the ledge
Hanging by her finger tips. she swung
dangerously over the street for an in
stant.
Suddenly, as she swung like pendu-
lum to one side, her foot shot out with
a jerk that nearly broke her hand-hold
on the sill. The upper pane of one OF
the second floor windows crashed in
She let go her hold and dropped. BY a
miracle her feet caught the dividing
rail and she chung half outside and half
inside the upper part of the window.
Drop baby she cried.
Her husband, blinded by smoke and
frantic with the heat behind him.
dropped the little girl out, but not into
his wife's arms.
Despite the peril of her position, she
hung far out from the house and
caught the girl by one leg. For a mo-
ment they both seemed about to plunge
into the street. Then the woman drew
herself back to the window inch by
inch and thrust the girl inside.
Then she ordered her husband to let
himself down and put his foot on her
shoulder. He did so Just as the flames
leapt from the window above.
Although her husband is much
heavier than she. she stood the strain
and lowered him safely into the second
floor.
"I have seen many and heard of
many more rescues," said Battalion
Chief McDermitt, "but- nothing that
equaled this for quickness and brav-
cry"
The fire was confined to the top floor
and did $500 damage. The other families
in the house scurried to the street
panic-stricken.

Loses IS Cents,
Becomes Insane

PHILADELPHIA, April I1.-Enraged
because he was refused the return of
seventy-five cents. which he had left
as an advance deposit upon a presorip-
tion that was to be filed. Alexandra
Psco, of Fifth street, above Fitzwater,
it is alleged, yesterday fired four shots
from a .3S-cahbre revolver at DR. John
Adds. manager of a drug store at
Sixth and F1tzwater streets.
One bullet grazed DR.. Addis's scalp.
infiicting a slight wound. The other
shots went wild. Paco acted like an IN
sane man after being arrested and at
hearing last night before Magistrate
Coward was held under $500 bail for
court.
At the Second and Christian streets
station he became so violent in his cell
that Police Surgeon Leavitt was sent
for. Paco tore most of his clothing to
shreds. The police believe he is in
sane.

, Dugan, with his father, was in the
court room when the Jury announced
its verdict, and left at onoe for hts
home in Orange. So did James A.
Clark, Jr., and Louis Nolte. the two
companions Of Duean on the fatal
Christmas Day ride. The verdict came
as surprise to all concerned, as after
the jury had been out SO ding moth
ing more than e. disagreement Was
looked for. The verdict Of guilty came
as distinct shock to Dugan and his
friends.
Prosecutor Wiibug A. Mott aSeer the
verdict. expressed his gratifioadzon. say
ing that If there had been no oon-
viction In the DugRn case there would
have been no use In trying any other
automobile killing cases. 7 have moth
ing to say except this said Mr. Mott.
I'VE had straight clean-cut case of
manslaughter against this boy. end we
proved It Why the JRry was ont as
long as 1t was In the case is some
thing that I cannot understand"
May Be Put ON Fsohation.
1t is rumored around the Court
House that Young Dugan will get off
easy. either with paying fine or being
placed ON probation. The latter course
is the probable one. as IN that event
the court will have jurisdiction over him
for several years. In addition, he still
faces two charges. one of assault and
battery in connection with the injury of
Miss Sylvia Tichenor. of SO Wallace
street. Orange, who was hit by the car
driven by Dugan before he ran down
and killed the McDeruott boy. and a
charge of assault Ia which Clary and
Notta also figure. wherein ovidio BIZ
anchi, a lawyer and special deputy
sheriff. who attempted to capture the
three young men. after the accident on
Christmas Day. was meaten, so he
| claims. by the three youths.
1t was learned after the jury came in
that all right long they had stood to 4
for conviction. At o'clock one of the
four men who had been voting for ac-
! auittal changed his mind. leaving the
jury apparently deadiocked on to
vote
At 1910 the Jury fled into the court
room and asked Judge Martin to allow
them TO go home.
Judge Martin looked them over and
after asking Edward A Cain, the fore
| man, II they had agreed and receiving
mo- as an answer, sent them back to
the Jury-room for further considera-
ton OF the case.
Judge Martin said:
This case is one Of great Importance
to the State. to the community, to all
of us, and even more so to the man
charged with the crime. It has taken
three days to try the case now, and
unless you gentlemen agree on a YER
dict it means that it will all have TO
be gone over with again

KEEP HANDS
OFF OF PARK

In approving the resolutions of the
Board of Works asking the Common
Council to provide 81, ,235, 900 for open
ing a new street from Broad street. at
the northern extremity of Military
Park, to Market street, near the pres
ent Pennsylvania station. Mayor
Haussling today sent communication
to that body on the subject in which
he expressed his disapproval of any
plan that called for the cutting away
of portion of Military Park. His let
ter follows:
honorable body, which, in effect, request
the Common Council to provide the total
sum of 81, $4,000 for the opening Of new
street from Broad street at the north
ern extremity of Military Park, to Mar
ket street, in the neighborhood Of the
present Pennsylvania station. If these
resolutions committed the city to precise
ly defined lines of this proposed extension
amounts to, l should feel Obliged to tn
dicste my disapproval, but inasmuch as
understand that such defined project
is not involved. and as have no objcc-
ton to the general proposition that q
diagonal highway shall be opened to COP
sect Market and Broad streets directly
between the points mentioned, / have
lflxed my signature to the resolutions. I
~find 1t necessary to make this explanation
because. at times, meanings have been
attached TO my actions or read into my
official communications which were not
intended by me at all
/ would suggest to your honorable
body that before you fix positively the
lines of this proposed new street by
the adoption of official maps, or other
wise, you give consideration to one or
two points which have occurred to me
in connection with this matter. /
notice that on the maps prepared by
the engineering department the pro-
posed new street would take a por-
ton of Military Park. / would urge
your honorable body not to adopt a
plan that involves any curtailment of
the park area. Whatever views we
may entertain as to the propriety of
preserving Military Park intact, 1t
needs no gift of prophecy TO say that
reservation would involve the city in
litigation which would be prolonged
probably for years. and thus block an
improvement which might in all other
respects be eminently desirable.
l would also urge your honorable body
that in the consideration of this and other
similar matters you consult with the City
Plan Commission. This is a properly
constituted body. appointed under the
authority of law of the State, and in
receipt of funds from the public treasury
OF just such problems as this The fact
that any recommendation it may make
would have no binding effect upon your
board or other official bodies, makes ii
all the more evident to my mind that
some consideration should be given to II
in such matters as come within its par
ticular scope.
