Through Bridge

Somerville. n. j., Nov. 4.-Miss Bes-
sic Mcneil is Frustrated at her home
here following her tragic experience
when the automobile in which she was
driving with Solomon K. Jacobs. a
broker, of 90 Riverside drive, New
York. crashed through a wooden bridge
at Bound Brook, N. j.. and before help
could be summoned by the frantic
young woman MIR. Jacobs was drowned.
Miss Mcneil. too. plunged into the
sluggish little stream, but she was able
to clutch at overhang1ng branches that
lined the banks and drag herself to a
spot where she could get a firm foot
hold. There she hung suspended until
her screams were heard by persons in
the vicinity. They dragged her, faint
ing. from the water.
Mr.. Jacobs. hampered by his position
behind the steering wheel. was thrown
SO that the car pinned him beneath it,
n although rescuers worked quickly
and got him to the bank while still
alive. he died within Il few minutes.

after making a wide turn from Union
avenue in a manner calculated to
further weaken the frail structure.

bridge had reached a condition in which
any weight would wreck it. Mr.. Jacobs,

Hunters Dilemma Reve 4
the Secret Wedding.

When some of his married men
friends asked John A. Legro, OF
Huguenot Park, Staten Island, yes
teruay to go upstate with them and
their wives on a hunting trip, the
young man was in a dilemma.
I'D sure like to CO." he said, but
along. I'd be the only bachelor in
the crowd"
"Oh, that's all right. What Diff
ference does that make?"
well, | wouldn't-that Is, l
couldn't go as a bachelor" said
Legro.
why not?"
because I'm not a bachelor"
His friends gasped, then %gurgled,
then threatened to thrash him, and
finally congratulated him.
Legro went to a telephone and
called up Mrs. Legro, whom all her
friends believed to be simply Mabel
Sprague.
The announcement took the West
field section Of Staten Island by sur
prise. Although the young couple
had been seen often together, acne
of their most intimate friends had
suspected that they were married.
Mrs. Legro is a beautiful girl, the
daughter of Mr.. and Mrs. David
Sprague, of Amboy Road, Huguenot.
She first met Legro when he was
agent for the Staten Island Rapid
Transit railroad at the Huguenot
Park station.
Early In the spring Legro inherit
ed a comfortable fortune and left
his position to live on his income,
1t was a few days after his resigna-
ton that he and Miss Sprague went
over to New Jersey and were mar
.leo. They returned to their former
homes. Their eason for keeping
the marriage a secret has not ye'
been revealed. Miss S%prague's pa
rents. who heard of the wedding fol
the first time yesterday, had no
been opposed to it at Il time.
The young couple were busily pre-
pairing yesterday for the hunting triI
that will be their honeymoon.
Mrs. Legro is a graduate of Train
er's private school, of Perth Amboy
and is we'll known in this city an
the lower section of Staten Island
where she has resided all her life.

BEST ASSET POOR MEMORY

BY the Inhabitants Of His
Boarding House.

James is a very popular negro in a
boarding house and Is accounted un.
usually reliable. He receives, there
FORE, frequent gratuities and is exceed
ingly prosperous.
This In spite of the fact that he has
one OF the greatest capacities for for
getting OF any one to be met with
even among the employees of a board.
Ing house.
What, then. Is the secret of his repu.
tation for being a reliable man? One
boarder has studied the problem and
gives the answer:
H never refuses to execute a COM
mission. Is always apparently atten-
tive to any order given him. and when
the angry boarder blows him up for
his failure to do what he was told he
takes 1t meekly and s~toically.
He seems such an easy mark that
the boarder goes on and on with his
abuse until he feels that he has gone
too far. Then he grows ashamed of
himself and slips James q quarter.
"'Thsnk you. sir says James, and
they both feel better. and the boarder
remarks. James Is = pretty good boy
