ASTOR DISCUSSES
AND SAVES BOY

New York, April 2O.-A fine act of
heroism is narrated by George A.
Hardy of Brooklyn who survived the
disaster.
when Colonel Astor had assisted
his fearful young wife and her maid
into life boat he tried to put in a
boy, but the sailors refused to let the
boy in, saying that the room then was
only for girl children. Colonel Astor
then picked up a woman's hat from
the deck and placed it on the boys
head and brought him back to the
boat. He said:
Here, little girl, climb in," and
the officers of the ship let the boy
through. AS the boat was lowered
away, Colonel Astor stood on the deck
waving goodbye"
The following statement was issued
today at the offices of the Astor es-
tate:
Mrs. Astor is very i'll and under
the care of a physician. 1t will be
impossible for her to be interviewed
or to give out any statement"

The frightened wife ran out of the
house and began calling wildly for
help. Joe Tanity and thre compan-
ions, all acquainted with Bladu, re-
soponded and were told that Bladu
had gone to die in the icy waters OF
the lake. The quartet started on a
run for the water front and son es-
pied the nude man in the waves.
They shouted and begged the bath
er to return to the shore, assuring him
that his wife was at peace with him
and that any differences would be
adjusted to his entire satisfaction if
he would only return with them.
He refused to come out and Tanity
and his companions entered the water,
finally succeeding in capturing the
man and dragging him to the shore.
Then began the march to the Bladu
home with the kicking man on the
shoulders of the four captors.
Scarcely had the party started
down the street before women, at
tracted by the noise, caught sight of
the burden and scampered screaming
into their respective houses. This
scene was re-enacted as each blosk
was passed. even policemen turning
their backs on the group as it pass
ed by, until the Bladu home was
reached and the unwilling load de-
posted on his own doorstep, amid
the Thanksgiving walls of the almost
distracted wife.
As soon as Bladu could don some
clothes he hurried before a justice
of the peace and swore out warrants
for the arrest of his rescuers on the
charge of assault. The men were ar
rested but when the officers went to
summon Mrs. Bladu and the children
as witnesses they found the house
empty They had fled, and since then
no trace Of them has been found.

the elimination of what at first was

1t seems that John Bladu, after
some alteration with Mrs. Bladu in
which he threatened to make away
with himself, carefully removed every
vestige OF clothing and announced oil
the family threshold as he opened the
door that he was going to jump into
Lake Michigan and die. Then he
rushed madly off in the direction OF
