her brief little story between dry sobs.
He took her to small hotel which
the cabman, with a leer, suggested
The character Of the place troubled
Sullivan no whit. He wanted to see
the girl comfortable, and fed, and
more than all, mentally normal again.
There was no lift. He and a PORTER
assisted her up the stairs, and laid
her on bed in a tawdy little room.
Although it was after two in the
morning, the PORTER brought some
hot soup, and Sullivan, drawing up
chair, fed her by spoonfuls.
lilly lay back with closed eyes
and open, childish mouth. When
the soup was done, she looked at
Sullivan gratefully.
81 didn't know there were men like
you in the world" She held out her
hand to him, and he took it between
both of his.

lilly met his eyes.
''I'I starve to DEATH" she said sim
ply.
She went to sleep almost imme-
diately after that, one arm thrown up
over her head, the other across her
childish breast Sullivan lowered the
light, creaking around on his ties to
avoid waking her Then he drew a
chair close beside the bed, and sat
looking at her, at her eye-lids, blue
veined and black-lashed, at the purity
of her mouth, the sweetness and
character Of her chin, at the swollen
foot, lying on pillow, with the fine
scratches on the sole. And, with the
intuition that comes to man so
surely because so seldom, Sullivan
knew that the scratches were all of
evil that lilly had carried away from
the Bal Tabarin.
Heavy footsteps outside on the
tiled corridor threatened to rouse the
girl from her sleep. He rose and
stood looking down at her He had
an impulse to Stoop and KISS her on
the forehead, but he did not. Instead,
he carried his chair into the hall and
sat down, sentinel fashion, just out
side the door.
The light from gas lamp wavered
in the draft, family Illuminating the
stone stairs, with their twisted iron
balusteF. Laughter and music came
up the staircase well, but ne heard
neither. His thoughts had gone
ahead to future in which this girl,
this waif he had gathered from the
streets, should have her part; to take
her back to the homeland, to care
for her and cherish her, to see her
growing into that purity of woman
hood that was her birthright, and
then, perhaps, some day to go to her
and ask for her love

srre was rendered by jury before Judge
Little in the Court Of oyer and Termuer
today in the case Of Thomas Burns "a
year-old peddler charged with killing
Rabbi Louis Erchansky in front Of his
nome, G48 North Marshall street. on June
& The court sentenced Burns to an In

had rehuffed him. sought 10 kill her on
the evening OF June S he called at Mrs.
Eisenbaum's home and Was told by her
lu-yesr-old son that she had gone TO
visit AIRS Eebecca Erchansky, wife of
tne rabbi, at Gag North Marshall street.
Burns came upon the women as they
were sitting in front or the rabbits home,
aud Guickly drew his revolver
Tie first shot struck Mrs. EisenJaurn
behind the ear, causing a wound which
required her confinement IN the hospital
for seven weeks. A second shot narrowly

his revolver on the rabbi and inflicted a
mortal wound.
Assistant District Attorney Taulane. IN
summing mp the Commemorative case
before the jury, asserted that the tisti-
mony addaced Yesterday proved concIu-
aiyely that Burns had murder in his
heart when he sought out Mrs Eisen-
baum, and that the prisoner did not
hesitate IN turning his revolver against
any one whom hs thought was trying 10
protect the woman. The prosecuting at
tOrney declared the efforts OF the defense
10 prove that Burns was In weakened
mental condition at tie time OF the crime
were without substance. The jury was
also told that Its verdict should not be
influenced by the advanced age OF the
prisoner.
One Of the chief arguments OF c, Stuart
Patterson, JT. counsel Tor tho prisoner,
was Burns age. II was ConteHded that a
man ~ Burns advanced years might
have suffered "A temporary mental sfiiG-

Patterson directed his efforts not so much

OF SPECTATORS
Two Men Tell Board In
vestigating Ticket Scandal
That Policeman Johnston
Gave Scalpers Privileges.

The board appointed by Director q,
Public Safety George d. Porter to in.
vestigate the baseball ticket scandal n.
day summoned Reserve Policeman ed.
ward Johnston, accused of aiding specu.
lators in obtaining tickets.
Two men appeared before the Tnves,,.
eating Committee this morning to tel,
why they did not obtain tickets and how
they were hindered by spectators and
the police. They both accused johnston
of aiding spectators
The accusers are Julian Haugwitz q,
Sharon Hill, representative of stollwe,z
& Co., of New York, stock brokers. and
J. William Chew, of Ga Market street
Chester, a manufacturer.
Both were sure that Johnston. who
stands at l1th and Market streets, but
who was detailed during the ticket sala
before Gimbers store, was a CRATER. They
testified to seeing him wave a number NJ
bills in his hands and say WHO is next?"
The witnesses also say he was in cons
versaton with men who entered Gimbel,a
before the doors were open. One carried
camera.
j. William Chew said that he paid
Negro 50 for his place. A few minutes
later he saw the same Negro three places
ahead of him. He said he demonstrated,
but when n policeman spoke grufhy he
suosided. He got his tickets and he did
not use them They were offered as
Exhibit A. He intends to cash them in.
Chew also thinks that he would NOT
have been detained in line so long II IL
was not for Johnston thrusting men
ahead of him.
He said men who were in front of him
after leaving Gimbcls' came back to of
fer sale of seats at eXorbitant prices
Haugwitz also condemned Johnston. He
said police sergeant closed the side door
of saloon where ticket spectators coll
lected and got places in line by going out
the side door and crowding out soma
other person.
1t was not far in the fan line that Mr.,
HauRwitz Travelled. lie said that he got
to restaurant and then out for lunch.
When he returned the sale was over
lie testified while he was in line that
three young men were taken out of the
crowd during a dispute The young men
were accused OF being interlopers by those
behind them. The sergeant heard the
testimony of all concerned but sent the
young men away, the witness said
Mr.. Chew, who knows Johnston as No.
1jO says that he saw him accept several
bills from a Negro. Mr.. Haugwitz saws
that No. $50 was very officious The
policeman was also accused of talking to
pittsburgh LoOey,' who is known to be
a speculator.
Johnson made no defense. He is drilling
at the ball park in preparation for the

Loves Juvenile dream, younger than

and Lehlgh avenues station by COM
bination OF a school principal and the
majesty OF the law. represented by po-
Hceman and Magistrate Emely. who held
three 16-year-old boys in 500 bail each

was sent to the House OF Detention to
be dealt with for flagrantly disregardins
the rules OF the Board OF Education by
falling in love. This lad is the real
culprit, The three others who should
have known better. each being month
older simply accompanied him on
mission to his charmer.
The older boys are William Boffe. Of
1884 Almond street BENJAMIN Tuuis. Of
2514 East Allegheny avenuc. and Max
Rosen Of 29G, Richmond street The love
lorn youth is James Passolano, OF 1856
Edgemont street. All are pupils at the
Northeast High school
Little Miss Dorothy Somebody IS the
innocent cause OF all the trouble Not
even the grim visa ged Magistrate with
his retinue Of oluecoats could induce any
OF the four lads to reveal her last name.
They stood mute today when questioned,
in their youthful eyes the light Of an
unalterable intention to die Mt the stake
or on the rack rather than tell.
The four boys went to the Cambria
Grammar School at 18th and William
streets yesterday in the recess hour.
Passolano had written out note for
Miss Dorothy and he gave it to another
girl. The note read:
Dear Dorothy:
Meet me at Germantown and Lehish
avenues at o'clock this afternoon
As the bearer Of the message was
speeding on her way to Dorothy, David
Il stout principal OF the school, inter-
cepted her.
What have you there?" he asked, in
approved schoolmaster tone.
Coincident with the request. he took
the note and read IT, Then he had the
four boys arrested by the bIuecoat on
duty near the school.
At the hearing this morning stout de-
clared, apropos Of nothing, that the
principal OF the high school where the
boys are pupils had commended him for
his action in having them arrested. And
as a parting shot he declared the same
principal had promised TO deal with the
lads when the law gets through with
them. Then the Magistrate imposed tho
500 keep the-peace sentence
Magistrate Eme.y declared after the
hearing the case against the boys was
really serious He said they had heeu
annoying girls at the school for months
and the principal had to take some ao-
tlon to protect them.
Parents Of the boys looked upon their
arrest somewhat in the light " Joke
and also seemed TO think II would b.
lesson to them They declared they had
no objection to make about the arrest.
