Baby Plunges 20 Feet Into
Sewer and Escapes Injury
Katie Henig Tumbles Into Manhole, Walks IS Feet
Underground Through Water Waist-peep
and Is Rescued by Fireman

Katie Henig, two years old, crowded
more excitement into two and one-half
hours of her hitherto uneventful life
yesterday than most persons experience
in lifetime. and last night she was
none the worse for it.
Katie plunged twenty feet into a
sewer in Tompkns Square Park,
walked seventy-five feet underground
through swiftly running stream more
than foot deep toward possible death
at huge intersecting sewer under
Avenue aud was rescued by a big
fireman. The only i'll effect on Katie
was somewhat of a shock induced by
the wild cheering of the more than
5000 persons who saw her brought
from the sewer alive.
Katie was taken to the park with
her four-year- brother, Isdore, by
her mother, Mrs. Pauline Henig, of 1872
st. Marks Place, and her grandmother,
Mrs. Celia Henig, to bathe in the sun
shine. The children began playing
while their elders crocheted on a bench
nearby.
A manhole had been fenced off to
guard the entrance. to the sewer, but
somehow Katie managed to crawl un-
derneath the lower strand of wire, less
than half foot above ground She
turned and chuckled at Isidore, who
had been unable to squeeze through,
then rested her hands on the manhole

view.
The amazed Isidore ran and told his
mother and grandmother Of the acci-
dent, and Park Foreman William Law
renee and his assistants, attracted by
the screams of the mother, rushed to
the rescue. None of the ladders would
60 through the manhole, however, and
call was sent for Hook and Ladder
II. at Avenue D and Fifth Street.
The fireman opened the sewer at
Avenue B. A swift examination proved
the child had not been at that point,
so First Grade Fireman Frank Ely, of
1o5 East Ninety-second Street, was
lowered by rope into the swift-run-
ming water. Crawling on hands and
knees. Ely headed back toward the
hole through which Katie had fallen
fighting to get his breath in the sewer
gas.
Finally, as Ely had about given up
hope, he saw pale disk about seventy
five feet away. 1t was the babys face,
When Ely reached her she was stand
ing waist deep in the water and appar-
emily enjoying the adventure. But
sight of the strange man crawling
toward her was too much and she set
up wall that made the cavern ring.
Katie had calmed again by the time
she and her rescuer reached the sur
face, but when the crowd broke into
cheers for the fireman the baby be-

Blaze in Early Morning Is
Witnessed by Hundreds;
Loss Placed at $14O,OOO

The lives of thirty-five families, Of
more than 100 persons, we're endangered
by fire which broke out before daybreak
IN the fouv-story apartment house at
10 Rose Street, New Rochelle, to-day.
Perilous escapes and thrilling rescues
followed the arrival of firemen.
Hundreds who had gathered in the
street cheered as eight hysterical per-
sons were carried down fire ladders
to safety, while others jumped into
fire nets or escaped over roofs.
The excitement was intense when
Harry Banderbogart climbed to the
roof from the top floor, where shoot
ing flames had trapped him. A scaling
ladder lifted to him was round to be
too short by five tee.. AS the crowd
held its breath he was seen to leap i'll
the direction of the ladder. Wild ap-
plause followed when it was observed
that his hands had grasped the rungs.
He slid sixty feet to the ground.
The Women Rescued
Shortly after this spectacular escape
the crowd was again awed by the sight
of two weeping women clinging des-
perately to = chimney which seemed in
imminent danger Of topping over.
Their hands were burned and their hair
scerched, while their bodies, clad only
in night robes, dangled perilously near
the edge of the roof.
Attracted by their cries, Firemen
Frank Kelley and James FRESHMAN
raised scaling ladders to the roof and

Another rescue was made by volun-
teer fireman, Harry Allen, New Ro-
chelle business man, who stood at the
top of an aerial ladder and caught a
falling tenant in a manner which would
have done credit to an experienced
gymnast.
Allen laced one leg in the rounds
OF the ladder and urged the tenant to
jump. He was hanging from a window
ledge and q great burst of flame seemed
to envelope MIN. AS Allen shouted, the
tenant, whose name was not obtained,
jumped, striking the fourth floor win
dow ledge and bounding off into his
arms. Allen swayed under the impact,
but held to the ladder.
Blaze Starts in Store
The blaze is believed to have started
in store on the ground floor. 1t spread
rapidly. On one side of the build
ing, where there are no fire escapes,
five families were cut off from the
stairs. Police Sergeant Birmingham
and Patrolmen Specht, Harvard and
Lewis, aided by civilians and firemen n,
fought their way up flame-swcpt stairs
and carried the fifteen men, women and
children to the street Neighbors fur
nished clothes and hurried the victims
into their homes, where doctors gave
first aid.
Although sparks were blown for a
mile, Fire Chief Walter Jones, recently
battalion chief in New York City,
and his men succeeded in con6ning
the flames to the one building
The origin of the fire is unknown.
The estimated loss is $14O,OOO

Bedtime Stories
Buster Bears Bad Dream
By Thornton W. Burgess
Pray haze hoao much you cat,
Especially Of food that's sweet
Buster Bear.

Buster Bear is the last one in the
world 20 give advice Of that kind, for
he never has been known to be in the
least careful of his own eating. But
you will find frequently that people
who give tho very best advice never
practice what they preach. Now, that
advice Of Busters is good very good
Buster needed it in the past he would
have been saved from many dreadful
stomachaches and many bad dreams.
his stomach. He wouldn't admit that
but it is true The greater part of his
time is spent in looking for good
things to put in his stomach. The
funny thing is that, though he thinks
SO much Of his stomach, he abuses it
shamefully. When he finds food that
he is especially fond of he stufrs that
pecr stomach until it is stretched to
several times its natural size and can
not be stretched another bit.
He had done just this with the honey
from that bee tree he had pulled over
and broken open. Then, because NOV
ing about with such a swollen stomach
was uncomfortable, and also because it
made him sleepy he had crept into a
thieket near by, and in no time at all
was sound asleep.
Did you ever wonder where dreams
come from? Let me tell you. More
often than not they come from the
stomach. Yes, sir, that is a fact. If
you doubt it, just eat too much rich
food and then go to sleep. You'll soon
find out where dreams come from, bad
dreams, anyway.
Buster Bear had not been asleep
long before he began to dream. OF
course, he didn't know he was dream
ing One never. does know one is
dreaming. 1t was all real to Buster.
At first it was very pleasant He was
sitting with his back to Big tree, with
just in front of him, where he could
reach out and help himself, great
pile of honeycomb filled with the
sweetest, most delicious honey that
ever he had tasted.
Although he ate and ate as fast as he
could, that pile grew no smaller. In
stead it grew larger. You see, oil the
Bees in the Green Forest were making
honey right there for Buster. They
made i faster than he could eat it, and
they seemed very glad to have him
eat it.
Suddenly that dream changed The
