GOT OUT THROUGH SKYLIGHT
Brooklyn Woman, Locked in Office.
Building, Left by the Roof In
stead of the Door.

A prisoner in her ladies' tailoring
shop on the top floor of the 5-story
building at 40 East Broadway, New
York, Mrs. NJ. w. Winston, weight
1870 pounds, was eventually rescued
few days ago from her predicament
by two firemen, a policeman and a
janitor, who lowered ropes from the
roof of the building through the sky
light.
Mrs. Winston, whose home liz at
795 De Kalb avenue. Brooklyn, went
to her shop in the morning to finish
some work, and requested the janitor
to leave the front door open SO she
could get out. The janitor forgot his
instructions and Mrs. Winston found
the door on the lower floor locked
when she wanted to leave.
AS she realized there was no other
method of getting out she attracted
crowd by pounding ON the glass
panels of the door, but the spectators
were unable to understand her pre-.
dicament. She then returned to the
fifth floor, wrote note explaining
she was locked In and threw 1t out
the window.
The crowd read 1t and offered sug-
gestions, while a more thoughtful
person hurried to Engine Company

Assisted by the janitor Of the ad-
joining building, the rescuers got to
the roof of No. 40 and smashed the
skylight. Stephens was lowered into
the room and, after considerable per
suasion, Mrs Winston allowed the
rope to be tied about her waist.
The three men then pulled and fin.
ally got their burden to the roof
Stephens was pulled up later. After
thanking her rescuers Mrs. Winston
hurried home.

acids formed from the decomposing
litter, forming insoluble compounds.
Thus they are not so quickly available
to the plants as the original excre-

There are also various losses In
quantity which the constituents may
suffer before they reach the land. In
the yard much urine may run to waste.
Ammonia will disappear as gas in the
stable during decomposition of the
urine and further loss of nitrogen
may occur in the barnyard.
