Plttsburg, Pa, July 1T was cost

Bessie Morris, an athletic girl who
lives in the Lawrenceville district.
Metro tonight is minus the sight of his
left eye; he is bruised from head TO

workhouse lies ahead of him.
Miss Morris drove the ferrule of
her umbrella into his left eye. Roaring
with pain, the discounted masheI
sprang at Miss Morris, but she stepped
nimbly aside and in her stead, Peter
Walters, a city fireman who was pass
ing, and had taken in the whole per-
Torrance, met the enraged masher
with a blow on the chin. Metro stag
gered backward, but recovered quickly
and came forward for more, and he
got it. By the time Walters had finish
ed with him ii was necessary to call
the patrol and cart Hansell to the pc
lice station Hansell is printer and

The STUFF REPORTERS
ARE MADE OUT OF
New York WORLDLY

Fatally injured in the Stamford
railroad wreck, the first thought and
as it proved, practically the las1
thought of Gregory, Humes, report
er for the World, was of duty. In a
moment of agony that preceded I'M
consciousness he gave urgent direc-
lions that the World should be mott
fed at once by telephone of the acct
dent: that the STORY was a big one"
but that he would not be able to COW
er it, In the very presence of death
in one of it's most hideous forms he
was faithful
With sorrowful pride in devotion so
heroically displayed and with sympa-
thetic appreciation of the many other
noble qualities possessed by Mr..
Humes, the World in paying a de-
served tribute to him would also in a
few words exalt the whole class Of
workers of which he was a fine exam
pie. In no other walk of life do we
find more truth, zeal, honor and cour-
/ age than among newspaper reporters.
They record history in the making.
On their fidelity, judgment and energy
the people of today and the genera
lions that are to come depend for the
records that must be imperishable.
Into the collection and writing Of
these chronicles of busy days, sacri-
fees of health and life itself often
enter. Injured to exhausting labor
reckless of hours or comfort, workin2
under incredible pressure and usually
with singleness of purpose that is
generally associated only with the
battlefield, the true reporter has two
mighty incentives, one being the pur-
suit of truth and the other the tri-
umph of his newspaper.
Mr.. Humes died on the job with &C
thought that he was hero, but many
towering shaft the whole eartn
around commentaries loyalty less
notable and bravery less admirable.

pected will be increased by reports of
private persons.
OF these deaths go were the direct
result of heat strokes; five persons
committed suicide as a result of the
heat and two deaths were of children
seeking relief.
This was the hottest June day re-
corded in this city since the govern
ment records began to be kept here in

Reports from Coroner Hoffman indi-
cate that few persons under forty
years old, have been seriously affected
by the heat. The average age of those
who died was fifty years.
Slight relief arrived tonight when
the effect of thunder showers along
the upper lake region was felt here.
At s o'clock the temperature fell from
50 degrees to So in a little more than
