Nearly 1000 in Cash is Saved
by WOman'S Presence
of Mind.

BUFFALO, July S.-Presence OF
mind OF Miss Fannie Sullivan, 23-ycar-
old cashier at the Loyal Order Of
Moose lodge-rooms, Court and Frank
lin streets, and who lives at 1855 Davey
street, prevented masked gunman
from stealing $1,000 in currency BEING
counted at desk within glass in
closure.
Shortly after lO;3O o'clock Miss
Sullivan, who was counting the money,
was surprised to hear the command:
Hands up"
She looked into the muzzle OF a
.3S-caliber revolver held by masked
man at the other side of the cashiers
window.
At first Miss Sullivan believed the
man to be one OF the employees of the
lodge, enjoying himself at her ex-
pense. His command to hurry and to
admit him to the Office, emphasized by
a movement Of the revolver, convinced
her he was serious
Rings Alarm Bell.
"Just a moment" she answered, but
instead Of going to the door she drop
ped suddenly to the floor and rolled
under the desk. Lying on her back
she reached up and pressed an electric
button, used to ring an alarm bell in
the stewards quarters.
The robber heard the bell and start
ed for the stairs to descend to the
street, as the steward, Stanley Dogul-
ski, 28 years old, Of 1O7 Rooms avenue,
entered the room, Suspicious of some
wrong-dolng, Dogulskl carried with
him a small metal container Of cracked
Ice, which he had been filling at the
bar.
DogulskI ran down the stairs in
pursuit Of the gunner and raised the
metal box to throw as the masked
man turned and with drawn revolver
ordered him back. The steward hest
tated and the gunman approached him,
Dogulskl turned back but found the
spring lock on the door had caught,
Still threatening with the revolver the
gunman forced Dogulski to climb
through tranSOme into the lodge
room. The steward then ran to a
Franklin street window in time to see
the gunman tear the mask from his
face and disappear into Court street
Nervous, but Does Not Faint.
Dogulskl called the police and ply
siclan and then turned Ills attention
to Miss Sullivan, who had not tainted
but was extremely nervous. A glass
of water revived her and she told her
story to detectives and gave them a
good description Of the gunman.
The masked man was about 81 years
old and of medium build. He was
clean shaver and had rather full
face. Dressed in blue serge suit and
wearing n light checked automobile
cap, the robber presented prosperous
appearance.

MfantiLe Paralysis, Newest
And Most Terrible Disease,
Battling Study for Surgeons

AT one time we thought the dis
ease was transmitted by the bite OF
the stable fly. DR.. Rosenau Of Har-
ward was able to transmit polimy-
letic from a sick to a we'll monkey
through the bites Of flies. and these
experiments were confirmed by Drs
Anderson and Frost in our own lab
oratory here. DR.. Flexner apparent
ly found that other domestic insects
transmitted 1t by bites. Apparently
then the simple prevention was in
dicated-by getting rid of flies.
But subsequent experience has
caused our scientists to abandon the
theory OF insect carriers in this dis
ease. Dr. Flexncr has now discov-
cred the germ causing the disease. 1t
Is found in the secreti0ns Of the nose
and throat of affected persons and

that all cases of the sickness be in

is the fact that some individuals have
cases of infantile paralysis so mild in

persons act as carriers Of the germs,
spreading them in the community.
THE mortality ranges from five to
fifteen per cent of the cases. Medical
treatment is highly important to the
afflicted. There is considerable pain
in the sickness, and good doctoring
can do much to alleviate this. The
physician, too, can do much to pre-
vent deformitIes resulting from the
paralysis, and by electrical treatment
and hydrotherapy can do much to re-
store the convalescent to normal con-
dltlon. The operating surgeons have
been able to do wonders in restoring
sound bodies to those crippled by in

HUSBAND GIVES
RECEPTION FOR
OTHER MAN"
And He is Therefore Denied a
Divorce by a Court in
California.

LOS ANGELES, July S.-The after
math Of the $4,000 alienation Of affec-
ton suit brought by Frank G. Gegoux
against Edward G. Brazier, local capt
talist, was heard in the divorce court
and proved to be an anti-climaX OF a
strange and sensational love drama.
That the husband gave birthday
party to the other man" after he had
discovered the relations existing be-
tween his wife, Clara NJ. Gegoux and
the man he named as correspondent
was one OF the revelations OF the
tangled story. 1t was brought out by
Judge Wood during his examination
of Gegoux and was contained in the
findings Of the court.
Refused Divorce
Judge Wood held that Gegoux had
condoned the act OF his wife and re-
fused to give the husband decree.
Mrs Gegoux was not in court to de-
fend the action, and it developed from
the testimony that one Of the consider
ations Of the settlement OF the altena-
10 nor AUCClIOH suit W 4ISH Woo SAN''
ed out Of court last February, was that
Mrs. Gegoux should not contest her
husbands suit for divorce.
In his finding Judge Wood held the
following to be true:
That Gegoux had received a con-
siderable sum OF money from BTazier
at various times to reimburse him for
money spent for detectives in securing
evidence and also that he had received
money under threat Of prosecution.
Left Them Together.
That Brazier and Mrs, GegOux we're
together at the PalmCrest Apartments
April ., 1915. That subsequently Bra
zier visited Gegoux and his wife while
they were stopping at Balboa and that
Gegoux left the other man and his
wife alone on numerous occasions.
That after he had secured informa-
ton as TO the association Of his wife
and the other man he invited Brazier
for an automobile trip and gave him a
dinner party.
Among the allegations set forth in
the alienation Of affection suit, which
was never tried, was the statement
that Brazier and Mrs, Gegoux made a
trip to San Francisco.

tIons and ministerial associations.
For twelve years Mr.. stelzle attended
