WOMAN AS 4 GUARD
First might Watchwonan" of Metrop-
oils Has Post In Vicinity of Wash
ington Square-Nct Afraid of
Thieves.

New York-"Then," said a reporter
for a New York paper to a woman in
white, accompanied by a little girl, as
she placed>a couple Of red lanterns in
position outside y Macdougal alley,
you are the only woman night watch
man in the city,"
you mean" replied Mrs Astrid
Wolfe, that l am the only night
watchwoman in the city"
When the reporter remembered that
Mrs Wolfe and her nine-year-old
daughter Lillian carried the banner
for the mothers division in the woman
suffrage parade last spring he ac-
cepted the correction. Mrs. Wolfe
wore around her neck a black ribbon,
which bore, instead of watch, a po-
lice whistle. In her strong hand was
her nightstick. Every policeman
around Washington square is alert for
any alarm from Mrs. WoIfe's post,
which is a big, dark, echoing building,
yawning upon Eighth street. 1t is the
sort a place that would scare the av-
erage woman after dark The build
ing is unoccupied, save by her, as it
is being remodeled.
''You see," explained Mrs. Wolfe,
after she had put Lillian to bed in the
echoing house, thieves don't care
about the timber; it's the plumbing
fixtures they would come for. After
putting the lights in position I sit and
read all night, except at intervals
when I make a thorough search of the
building. I usually feel lucky if 1
get to bed after breakfast. Then I
get little sleep, if the workmen don't
make too much noise.
why have I a job so strange for
woman? A year ago, after a serious
illness, I found it necessary to get
work at once. I had myself and Lii
liam to support. l had no friends. 1
was told there was a job watching at
night in an apartment house that was
being built on St. Nicholas avenue.
So 1 went to the agent and applied [
told him I was afraid of nothing. I
got the job Before that I had Oeen
probation officer for the Florence
Crittenden home on BECKER street. 1t
was there that saw my first fight.
"One evening 1 saw a man leaning
against the door of house across the
way EveFy now and then he knocked
a pane of glass out of the door with
his elbow while he pretended to lean
against it. l went over and asked
what he was doing. He struck me a
blow on my right shoulder that almost
paralyzed me. He ran, and I tainted
from the pain. As soon as recovered
I ran, calling for the police.
when 1 found a policeman and led
him back, there was the thief back 81
the job He thought he had scared
me- I made a rush at him. I wanted
to let him know that I could give
punch But the cop got him instead.
Ever since then 1 have carried a
police whistle and nightstick when on
duty. The other day I made some
buns get off the steps. They were
waiting till it was dark to steal into
the house. When I told them to move
on they defed me. l just blew my

as the Taverne Nicolas Flannel. It was
originally built as a hostelry for work
ingmen, the revenue from whose lodg
ing was used TO pay for the food they
consumed. Some years go when the
front of the house was restored in
scriptions were laid bare which re
vealed the original purposes of the
building.
