Selden Believing that she was slightly
demented, the police had her removed
to the Union county Jail pending an
examination of her story.

she was or had been wealthy and that
she was familiar with society life.
DR. ]. Henry Clark reported late yes
terday that slightly demented woman
about 40 years old had escaped from
Dr. Luther's private sanitArium, 151
Scotland road, South Orange, in the
morning. She was wearing at the time
blue silk dress and long gray pony
coat
The Evening STAR found out that
she had come to Newark from South
Orange and had then gone to Eliza
beth. Although she had been picked
up by the police she had given no clue
to her identity.
Instead Of being fancifdl fhsl5relt~--
told by Mrs. Lines were true to a.
large extent. She has lived both at the
Hotel Bartholdi and the Hotel Imperial
in New York.
Her husband was seized with the.
gold fever at the time of the Klondykes
stampede. He had gone to Alaska,
lured by the thought of the fortunes
that could be had in that land of adj
venture. Efe never returned. No word
of the fate that had befallen him ever
reached Mrs. Lines.
When the Evening STAR communi-
Gated with the sanitarium officials and
informed them of the finding of Mrs.
Lines, immediate steps were taken for
her return to South Orange.

Rescued by Her Mo her

Miss Rose Booker, daughter of Mr.
and Mrs. Perry r. Booker, residing
in the north part of the city, came
very near being roasted alive in the
family fireplace last Tuesday. The
unfortunate young woman is subject
to fainting spells. From what we
can learn, she was standing IN front
of the fire, place when she had an
attack of her trouble, falling into the
fire, but was rescued by her mother
we are told. The hair on her head
was burned off, besides other seri-
GUS burns, none of which, it is
thought, will prove fatal.
Ii was indeed a narrow escape
from a horrible death. The unfor-
tunate girl, as well as the family. can
congratulate themselves that it was
NJ worse. The Enterprise extends to
the family its deepest sympathies

Nashville Thursday morning on
schedule time. 1t arrived at S:27,
in charge of Capt. J. A. J. Hender-

Under the present arrangement
the train will stop at the intersec-
ton of the public road directly in
