The bi spring business here marks a
new era In tailoring. As the. knowledge
that it is best and cheapest In the end
to have your clothes made to measure
becomes more widely disseminated the
demand increases. A couple of years
ago the amount 01' busmess I am now
doing appeared almost unobtainable.
and yet as large as it is it has had the
effect of whettmg my appetite for
more, which accounts for the extra

Three-Year-Old Carrie Hertl Loses
Her Life. ‘ '

HER DOLLY IN HER ARMS.

In Her Endeavor to “Wash the Smoke
Stains from a Toy She Meets Death.
Sad Sequence to the Burning
of Her Father’s House.

BROOKLYN, May 25.—-An unusually sad
case of accidental drowning occurred in
Williamsburg, although the body of the
victim, fair haired three-year-old Carrie
Hertl, was not found until early Saturday
morning. The body of the little girl lay
all day in an upper room of the frame and
fire charred wooden shop, 369 Broadway.

The Drowned Child.
Joseph Hertl kept up to two weeks ago

i little hair goods store at the number

mentioned. He is a widower and has been
married twice. Three little girls, of whom
Carrie was the youngest, lived with him.
They were the fruit of his second marriage.
Their mother died a year ago. A seventeen-
year-old half sister, Emily, cared for the
little girls while Hertl attended to the lit-
tle business. . '

The house is a. frame one, with a brick
wing at the rear, and it was in the base—
ment of this L that the catastrophe hap-
pened. Fire broke out on the premises
about two weeks ago and Hertl suffered
heavily, much of his stock and household
effects being ruined. He has been getting
his effects together during the last week
preparatory to moving, and the little girls
have been allowed to wander about Where
they chose.

Her Only Toy.

Almost the only toy which Carrie saved
from the fire was a China. doll. It was
blackened by the flames, though, and
Carrie had been. haunted with the idea
ever since that it was her chief duty to
wash 0E the blackened spots. She had
been given the doll baths each day when-
ever and wherever she could find enough
water collected in one place. -.On.-.Friday
Mr. Hertl saw the little one washing her
doll in a mud puddle, and reproved her
slrarply.

Her Disappearance.

Carrie disappeared at about 6 o’clock
and all efforts to find her proved unavail-
ing during that night. Mr. Hertl was ex-
cited over the disappearance and sent word
to the police twice during the night. A
general alarm was sent out, but nothing
was heard of the missing child.

At 0:30 in the morning the father, who
had not ceased searching for his baby for
twelve hours, stepped into the low cellar
under the brick addition and almost fell
over a barrel which had been set in the
middle of the open space. Just at its side
was an empty soap box, turned over so as
to form a platform or step beside the bar-
rel. As the alarmed father looked more
closely he saw two tiny shoes projecting
To take hold of the
chubby legs and remove the lifeless body
of his child was an instant’s work, and
then Hertl knew the sad truth.

How She Lost Her Life.

It is supposed that Carrie went to the
cellar to wash her “baby” in the water
with which the barrel was half full. She
placed the box at the side, climbed on it
and bent over to reach the water inside.
She must have toppled over and suffocated
without being able to help herself or make
any outcry. The china doll, with its smoke
stained features, was clasped close to her.

One of the saddest features of the case
is the fact that up to .a. late hour Saturday
night no word had been received "from a
half—brother who resides in New York.
His sister said she had written to him, but
he had not replied.

A NOTED DESPEnADO GONE.

Joe Dye, After Many Close Calls, ‘Meetsv

His Fate in Los Angeles. .

SAN FRANCISCO, May 25.-—The killing of
Joe Dye in Los Angeles by a bullet from a
pistol fired by Nate Bradfield ends a. life
which will live in the history of this state
as a. parallel to those Of “Wild Bill,” “Jack
Harvey” and “Billy the Kid.” ~ Dye had
probably killed a dozen men, some in fair
fight and others in cold blood. He went
to Los Angeles about twenty-one years ago
from which place it was currently reported
he had been driven by the vigilantes after
he had killed three men. Los Angeles at
that time was infested with many tough
characters, and his reputation as a “bad
man” readily secured him an appointment
to the police force.

The circumstance which brought him
most prominently before the Los Angeles
public as a fighter and man killer was his
fight with and killing of Billy Warren,
the town marshal. The trouble arose over
the reward offered by a. Chinaman for the
recovery of his reputed wife. Dye was a
large powerful man, nearly six feet, tall.

BRIEF- MENTION.

' Influenza in the house of commons is
charged to bad ventilation and sewer-gas.
Efforts are being constantly made to
effect peace between the Parnellite fac-
tions, but with little hope of success.

Satterlee, the insolvent New York in-
surance broker, has not gone to Canada,
his nephew says, but is broken down by
worry and has gone to a quiet place to re.
cuperate.

Father Ignatius, the,Episcopal monk,
does not think Rev. Dr. Phillips Brooks
should be confirmed as bishop.

More rottenness has been found in the
pension bureau by Acting Secretary Chand-
ler, and this time William H. Barker,
formerly of Brooklyn and brother-in—law
of Assistant Secretary Bussey, is involved.

Esther Herschel, a sixteen-year-old girl,
was abducted from her home, 90 Attorney
street, New York, and after being drugged
at Union park was taken to a. house in
Newark, N. J ., where she claims she was
detained for ten days.

In a quarrel which followed a dispute as
to the pay for a room in the lodging house
at 154 Thompson street, near Houston,
New York, Emil Grob, the night clerk of
the house, was dangerously stabbed by
Walter Jones, a negro. Jones escaped.
He hired a room at the place Friday, and
as he slept-in it. Friday afternoon and
again Friday night Grob demanded
double pay. Grob was taken to St. Vin-
cent’s hospital, where it was said the.
chem ccs were against his recovery.

Mrs. J times G. Blaine, Jr., who went to
South Dakota. for the purpose of acquiring
a residence there and. getting a divorce
from her husband, has returned to New
York and is consulting herlawyers about
hercase. .
