RESCUED FROM RIVER.
Policeman Henderson With Others Pulls John Norton Out at Chelsea Dock

Policeman Frank E. Henderson was in time with the assistance of several other men to rescue John Norton from the Thames river on Sunday after noon near the Chelsea dock. Norton, while evidently intoxicated, had fallen off the dock. By the use of a ladder which was secured he was brought on to dry land again and brought by Po- Hcemen Henderson and Smith to the police station in an automobile. In the auto also they brought a companion of lessly intoxicated on the dock.
 During the early part of the even ing Captain Twomey contributed as far as possible to Norton's comfort in the cell by wrapping him up in an old blanket after he had taken off the soaked clothing. The other man was entered on the blotter without a name, as he was too dead to the world to give any information about himself.
