Village of Vinal Haven Unites to Help ITnfortunate Parent Send Her to Hospital Where She Will Be Cured. VINAL. HAVEN. July 19- Ttie nsher women of ths lttle hamlet off the coast of Maine are occupied Just now holding a sewing bee at which the sole inter eat is the making of clothes for a lit tle hunchback girl named Jennie, now at the Maine General Hospital in Port land. The sun-tanned men who. live by their lobster pots and the meager ex istence which the sea affords are all contributing their scant savings toward the return of little Jennie, and all because one day recently the man who had been robbing the lobster pots and nets of the fishermen was caught red-handed and forced to confess to his deed, and the man was the girl's father. All along the Maine coast the story of how the little crooked-backed girl came to be sent to the hospital, where she might be made straight and well, has become the sole topic of interest. Just as the news of the capture of the mysterious man who plundered the fishermen of Vinal Haven for two weeks went broadcast along the coast. These sturdy New Englanders watch over their fish pots like eagles hover ing over their prey, and woe to the man wha dares to filch from their pre serves. Thus It was that the entire hamlet was thrown into a state of high excitement when it was discovered that the pots had all been drawn In the night and their contents stolen. The sensation intensified In the vil lage when two days later the pots were again found robbed. Sudden Happiness Dawns. Meantime there was one person in the village, little Jennie, known as the hunchback, whose happiness had sud denly dawned like the bursting of a beautiful flower, for her father had told her that she was soon to be sent to the great hospital in the city where she would be made straight and well again. Little Jennie Is motherless. Left alone with her father when she was an Infant, she had never known what it was to run and play with the bare legged, tough, wiry little children of tlia hamlet. Her misfortune, since she cSld first reason, had always been to remain propped up In a chair at home or to go crawling about on crutches to- attend to the household affairs while her father was away fishing. Her round, blue eyes, sunny hair and the pathetic little smile that somehow always lingered about her lips, had long endeared her to th women of the village, who sometimes dropped In to see the little invalid, but the simple fisher folks, strong in their belief in the dispensations of God, had accepted l.er misfortune as -a decree of heaven, and never dreamed that it was pos sible for the child to be cured. That Is, none save the one man who loved her more dearly than the breath of life Itself her father. Each night when he returned with his companions in the little 20-foot sloop, which, with the bumble cottage sitting back from' the village, were his only possessions, his sole Joy was to purchase a bit - of rib bon or fine y at the village store and hasten to place it in her lap that she might f o-et for the moment her mis fortune.j Through the years of her chldhoo.d the day was always ap proaching in his mindwhen he might have her placed in the hands of some great specialist who would straighten out that little back and restore her to the naanrs tVint hft mnmatimeta alrYinat blamed God for having deprived her of. '. Pondered Problem Long. One day. not long ago, he heard of the Maine General Hospital at Portland where Jennie. It was related, might be restored For weeks after the knowledge first came to him he pondered over the problem of jetting the little cripple there. The thought grew upon him until often while surrounded by his neighbors upon the fishing grounds, he spoke scarcely a word during the entire day. All his meager earnings he now began to store covetous ly In a locker in his house. But his sav ings grew so slowly. These fishermen of Vlnal Haven are al ways hard up to gather sufficient to keep Ihem through the long Winters when the fish are scarce and the lobster pots yield little or nothing. When Spring arrives there, is usually nothing left. The man whose thoughts were all ror the little un fortunate daughter knew this, and the conviction soon settled upon him that if the girl were to be sent where a cure rould be effected some other source of Income must be obtained. And then, one day. In the early morn ing, the thought came to him like a specter the obsession of taking fish from the other men'-, pots. For days the suggestion haunted him. He grew hollow-eyed, brooding and silent. His mellow laugh turned to a grim, haunting echo of a something unpresaged. His companions shied away from little Jennie's father be cause of the melancholy Hiat seemed to. haVe suddenly possessed the man, and there were many boding words as to the cause of his taciturnity. One morning the fishermen discov ered that someone had stolen their lob sters. This was followed by further pilferlngs. Finally, after two weeks of continued robberies, a secret meeting was held in the village at which only a few men wen summoned, and it was decided to keep night and day, watch over the traps. Silent and Unrepentant. In the gray dawn of one recent morn ing two giant men in their boats dis covered the man who was stripping the Tillage of Its means of existence. It was ltttle Jennie, the hunchback's father. He was bound in ms boat and taken to the village. During the ride from the Ashing ground he remained with his eyes staring, upward, silent, grim, unrepentant. They gathered around the man a hundred fishermen, and for a few mo ments; as he stood unbound In the cen ter of the crowd of angry men. with a score of women and children hanging upon the outskirts. It seemed as if sum mary punishment would be meted out to him. But the spokesman of the crowd sud denly looked at the culprit and asked: "Man. why did ye do it? Didn't ye know that ye was taken' the bread out'n the mouths of every woman and child in the villager' "H wa for little Jennie." The cry like that of an animal at bay. escaped from the sticken man's lips. "Aye, men. and ye all: ye don't know howl wanted to have her helped! Ever since I heard of-the great cures at the hospital In Portland my heart has been set on havin' my Jennie go there. I was poor like the rest of ye. God knows I fought agin It. God knows how I would rather died than do it for myself but it was fer her. fer that little girl all crooked, a-sittin' thar in her mother's place waitin' and smilin" and hopln' and ye can punish me as much as ye like but I tell ye all that I would do it agin ten times over for little Jennie's sake!" And then but the story of the do ings in that little fishing hamlet is the reply to the confession of the man who robbed the villagers and a tribute of glorification to the fishermen of Maine. They escorted him the thief to his home, the tears of gratitude flowing down his bronzed cheeks. They as sured him that little Jennie should go to the hospital if everyone in the ham let went hungry. They took up a sub scription that same day; hoardings were brought out, and the boat fare to Portland was promptly raised and taken up to the cottage and placed in the hands of the father. Little Jennie was Immediately pre sented new clothes and a cloak for her Journey to Portland, and one day last week, when the sun was Just beginning to top the hills of the village, a group of fishermen and women gathered at the little cottage and escorted father and daughter to the landing, whence they were to sail for Rockland, where the steamer was to take the little crip ple to the great hospital at Portland, And today in Vinal Haven they are preparing further happiness for the father and the little girl when she re turns restored and happy again. A sewing bee has already resulted in a complete wardrobe of new clothes for the little Jennie. The little cottage back from the village had been Invaded by the mothers and a general cleaning renovating and patching is going on there. Vlnal Haven means that little Jen nie's happiness shall prove a child's crowning triumph of Joy, and as for her lather s sin in robbing his neigh bors, the glorification of the act has been set on the credit side of his ac count, and every man. woman and child In the village is sworn never to let tire fair little Jennie know.

NEW CHIEF AT PORTLAND Country Divided Into Three Dis tricts, With PhiHips In Charge or Oregon and Washington. Service to Be Improved. SAN FRANCISCO, July 25. (Special.) The -greatest shake-up In the history of the Pacific Telephone & Telegraph Com pany is now in progress, consisting of reorganization of the operative and con structive departments, and the re-dts-trlctlng of the large field covered by the company will greatly improve its general service. It is expected that the arrange ments for the proposed improvements and official' changes will have been com pleted by August 1. Two Officials Dropped. 4 . When the roster of the officers of the company is made public, the name of Thom-as E. Sherwln, auditor, will be missing. His place is to be taken by F. C. Phelps.

Robinson, general superintendent, will also be miss ing. His position, for the present at least, will not be filled.

The southern division will extend from San Diego, which really means the Mexi can line, to San Luis Obispo on the north. Then comes the central division, extend ing from San Luis Obispo to the' Oregon state line. Xew Northern Superintendent. The northern or third district will in clude Washington and Oregon. W. J. Phillips is to be placed in charge of the northern district, with headquarters in Portland. He has been superintendent of the home or central division, with head quarters in this city. His change of ter ritory Is taken in some quarters to mean a slight relegation to the . rear in power and voice in the general management of the company.' He is to be succeeded by John Kerns, who has for some time oeen superintendent of the branch offices In Oakland. DEATH RATHER THAN WANT PATHETIC SUICIDE . OF WIDOW IX XEW YORK. Roomers Gone, Rent Due, Xone to Give Her Aid, She Turns on Gas and Succumbs. NEW YORK. July 19. (Special.) An honest little widow, possessing youth and good looks and health, sat down In her flat on the ground floor at. 229 West Eighty-third street and looked Into her future. She was alone in the world and that future was to be what she made it. Her rent. $35, was due, and she had but. $2.75 to apply on the payment of It. Her earnings as a dressmaker had not been sufficient in six months to defray her expenses. Two roomers, who had shared her flat with her, had left, and she had been unable to get others. Early In the evening she had talked about her troubles to a sympathetic ac quaintance a woman who had always accosted the little widow In the hall and sent her dainties and kindly re membrances when life seemed hardest and dreariest. This "woman had, in a Joking way, advised the widow to mar ry again. "I couldn't do that." the widow had said. "No other man could take the place of my husband." Sitting alone In her flat she thought over the situation in all its aspects. Womanlike, she saw only the clouds and could not penetrate to the silver lining. Alhln Anderson, the Janitor of the house, passing through the hallway on of gas. It proceeded from, the apart ment of Mrs. Anna Muller. the little widow on the ground floor, who had the ground floor, detected the odor a dressmakers' sign in her front win dow. Anderson knocked and received no response. He climbed up the fire es cape and forced the kitchen window. Lying on the floor, dead, was the lit tle widow and a kitten was playing about the body, and rubbing his nose against her cold hands. Although she had lived in the house for six months no one she met knows anything about her people. At one time she told the Janitor that a nephew of her husband lived on Staten Island. She had never received visitors and she left no messages behind. Another pathetic case Is that of Mrs. Samuel Kaufman, a bride of one year, who is in Williamsburg Hospital suf fering from hunger, after having caused the arrest of her husband on a charge of abandonment. The Kaufmans were married in the Spring of 1907. In Louisville. Mrs. Kaufman was one of the prettiest girls in jier home city. and Is said to be the daughter of wealthy parents. Kaufman, who is 22 years old. brought his wife East and installed her in an apartment at 12 Guernsey street Williamsburg. Everything went well for a time, but when the new ness of It all began to-wear off there came little quarrels. Then Mrs. Kauf man went to the Manhattan-avenue police court and asked Magistrate Doo ley for a warrant for her husband. She was no longer fresh and girlish- looking. She had aged ten years in appearance in one year of married life, and her cheeks were sunken and blood less. Mrs. Kaufman told the magistrate her husband often absented himself for weeks at a time. She said it was not unusual for her to go without food. She said also that Kaufman had beaten her and compelled her to work for him. As Mrs. Kaufman signed the com plaint she fainted from weakness, and Dr. Barnes said she needed food. She was then taken to the hospital. Mrs. Kaufman was too weak to appear against Kaufman when he was ar- ON PAG FIG N ralgned In court. He denied his wife's allegations and was held in $300 bail pending & hearing.
