Throat Is BahY's Bank

The combination of a penny and a
seventeen-month-old infant caused a
lot of excitement along the water
front near West Fifty-fourth sire ct
early last night, and almost resulted
IN the death of the child.
The baby is the son Of Louis Nc.
Mann, captain of the barge Rose
Goldrick, moored opposite the foot of
West Fifty-fourth street. A friend of
the child's father gave the baby a
penny, which he at once banked in his
mouth, and the coin became lodged in
the child's windpipe. The man who
made the unfortunate gift ran ashore
and got Policeman Flick, who called an
ambulance from the Polytechnique
hospital.
At the hospital ii seemed as if the
child's life was extinct, but after some
effort Doctor Lott dislodged the cent
and restored respiration. The child
was later removed to his home.

we had watching them through the
window was worth the punishment

Marital Troubles of the Ahearns, of Cycling Fame,
 Settled In Court

Westa P. Ahearn, wife of Charles A.. Ahearn, of Wa1Hngford, Conn, a mem Der of the Ahearn troupe of bicycle riders, and well known in this city and Walnut beach, where they have spent many summers, has secured a separation from her husband, before Justice Gavegan in the New York county court. Ahearn had sued his wife for separation alleging that she was constantly quarre1ing with him. He was much surprised man when she turned the tables on him by tes- tifying that he had coaxed her to ob- tain a divorce and that one of his woman friends had boasted:
 T have got your husband now; what are you going to doS about it?" Justice Gavegan awarded the sepa- , ration to Mrs. Ahearn and also gave her alimony of $35 8 week
 The wife was in court to defend the action of MT. Ahearn. and promptly told Justice Gavegan that she did not want divorce.
 My husband asked me to get one, but I refused" she testified. 'AIl I want to do is to work for a living. I have no intention of marrying again. 7 Mrs. Ahearn sobbed part of the time, and between gusts of tears push ed back a wealth Of auburn hair that simply refused to stay in place. She denied that she was jealous of women with whom, she said, her hus- band was friendly, altnougn Sne ad- mitted that all of their trouble was caused by other women.
 When I went abroad he refused to send me money to come home, I often pleaded with him to stop go1ng around with other women to cabarets and dances, but he paid no attention to me"
 Mr. Ahearn testified that his wife constantly accused him of being too friendly with women he knew, and he Irelated how on one occasion he had sent her to see her mother in England.
 -sI did not like the idea of my wife borrowing money to come home,'' he said, ssand I asked her to stay with her mother until I could send her money. But the first think I knew she was back in New York without any money from me"
 Simon Si1verman said he was the man who sent $250 to Mrs. Ahearn so she could return to America. .I would do the same for any other wo- man. he said. q charged the money to Ahearn's account
 It was but recently that Mrs. Ahearn played the part of sleuth in a New Jersey summer resort and secur- ed much notoriety in the news. She is 8 writer for theatrical papers.
