WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 2, 1007. 0 THE MORNING ASTOIUAN, ASTORIA, OHKGON. STARVE IN BIG CITY Woman and Three Children Wan der Without Food. TURNED INTO THE STREETS Husband Had Sailed for Italy in Search of Them While They Were Left to Struggle in Strange Country, NEW YORK, Jan. l.Th'nty clad and emaciated from starvation, a wo man and hor three little children were found In Second avenue, between Ninth and Tenth streets, last night, crouched In a doorway, shivering from the cold. In the Butler street court today. Magistrate Tlghe sent the woman to the almshouse and the children were placed In care of the Children's So ciety. The story the mother told was piti ful. She said that her name was Sta llone Ralno, and that she came to this country last September. Her hus band. Carmine, had sent for her and with the three little Ralnos, Donata, 10 years old; Ernina, 5 and Andrea ! years. Carmine was to meet them at Ellis Island, but after hours of waiting and watching the husband did not come, and the mother and three little ones were alone In a strange land with little money and no friends. After hours of wandering they reached the Italian quarter about Mul berry Bend and there found shelter for a time. Constant Inquiry for Carmine re sulted In the report that In August he had left New Tork for his home In Italy to get his wife and children. In some manner some mistake was evidently made and the two ships bearing the divided family probably passed In mid-ocean. The woman was told that she could live more economically In Brooklyn and after a month In Manhattan she again packed her belongings for the trip across the bridge and started a little news stand in South Brooklyn. Her "home" was in a basement room In Columbia street But the cold wave of the last week took the last of the money and when the landlord came there was nothing to give him. With hardly any clothes to protect them they were put out into the street and wandered for hours until, at last, worn and weary, they huddled to gether in the doorway, where Clancy, of the Fifth avenue station, found them. I CURIOUS RECOVERY. Wonderful Properties of Radium Were Means of Regaining Metal. NEW TORK. Jan. 1. The wonder ful properties of radium have enabled George B. Pegram, instructor in phys ics at Columbia University, to recov er almost $0,000 worth of the element which Dr. Robert Abbe of St. Luke's Hospital, this city, believed he had APPEARANCES Often a person is sized up by his appear ance; by the tone that surrounds him. And more often a business house is sized up by the stationary it uses. A cheap letter head or a poor bill head gives a mighty poor first impression and makes business harder to transact. Good printing costs no more than poor printing. The first im pression is half the battle in business. You wouldn't employ a "sloppy" sales man; why put up with "sloppy" station ery, that gives a wrong impression of the importance of your business. Let us do your printing and help you to make that ten strike. The J.$. Bellinger Go. Inst, Dr. Alilio was using radium In treating n patient nnd dropped a lube containing 0 milligrammes of It m the Hour. The radium salt spread over the carpet and became Invisible. Dr. Abbe sounht the help of Mr, IV grant, who islted the hospital with several photographic plates covered with black paper. The? he placed on the carpet where the radium was thought to be. Development of the plates showed him the exact posl'loii of the radium on ttv carpet. He Ih n had that part of the carpet taken tip and with the dust under It conveyed to his laboratory. In the laboratory Mr. Pogrom shook all the dust out of the piece of carpet and then by sim ple chemical process recovered about 60 milligrammes of a mixture of bar ium and radium bromide, which he be lieves contained most of the salt that was lost. The whole nmuont lost was only about a grain. THE TURBULENT LATIN. SAN ANTONIO, Texas, Jan. 1 Juan Jose Arredondo, one of the de fendants and leader of the Jimlnea uprising, was placed on the stand yes terday In the extradition proceedings against the alleged Mexican revolu tionists. In a straight-forward man ner he told of the JImlnei uprising. C. Marques, the star witness of the past four days, was on the stand al most all day. Over Sunday Commis sioner Orell considered the contents of the programme of the liberal party. It was Introduced as evidence yes terday. A SPLENDID EXAMPLE. SAX FRANCISCO, Jan. 1. With the aid and co-operation of the labor un ions, a tenants' union numbering near ly 50,000 has been formed here and landlords who are charging exorbitant rents will b? blacklisted. A clause In the resolution which was adopted binds the members to move Into va cant lots in tents when the weather gets warm. The members of the or ganization believe that the cause for the high prices in the city for food stuffs and other commodities are pro hibitive rents demanded by owners of stores and that the merchant who Is compelled to pay high rent marks up his goods correspondingly and that the worklngman shoulders the burden of high prices. Why Suffer from Rheumatism Do you know that rheumatic pains can be relieved? If you doubt this, Just try one application of Chamber lain's Pain Balm.

The Lacka wanna has adopted for use In freight yards a standard concrete humping po-t l hat Is giving more satisfactory service than any of the bumpers that heretofore have been tried by the com pany at the ends of freight storage and team tracks. The bumpers ate monolithic, either for single track or for two tracks, and are title I with a granite block having a face of I'.'xll Inches, s 't to Inches into the con crete at a height of nine Inches from the top of the mass, or In the proper position to receive the blow front the buffer of the tar. The rails of the Voadbed project Into and are Imbedded In the concrete which Is carried to a solid foundation, so that the tendency of the forces resulting from the Im pact of a car would be to raise the track. The energy, therefore, would bo largely overcome, In the case of n severe shock, by the weight of the ear Itself. The Lackawanna also has perfected a bumping post of unusual strength for use In Its new passenger terminal at Hoboken, where any failure -of a bum pins I'ost In the case of impact from a heavy car or engine would have a most disastrous result. It Is com posed of structural steel shapes, rest ing upon a concrete foundation, two feet eight Inches deep, to which It Is tied by 20 one and a half Inch author bolts, through plates on- and a half Inches thick and six Inches wide at the bottom of the concrete work, which plates in turn are stiffened by plates of similar thickness three Inches wide The bottom channels are very heavy, belns 15 inches high and weighing ".: pounds a foot. The forces to be ov ercome are necessarily calculated with difficulty, but the post has he n tied down with stiffening angles. Th cost ot tnis material is uuum .-. ., teen of these posts have been Installed at the Hoboken terminal. WALL KILLS LABORER. Masonry Loosened by Jar of Passing Train Falls on Worker. SAN FRANCISCO, Jan. 1. A wall of masonry, which fell shortly before noon today killed one man and man gled another, so severely that he will probably die. The accident occurred in the ruins of the oM California Can Company's building at Seventh and Townsend streets. Laborers were en gaged In razing a wall about 12 feet high. They had und rmined It, preparatory to pulling It down with ropes when a Southern Pacific pas senger train came thundering by. The shock of the train causal the wall to totter and fall. MINERS' STRIKE STILL ON. SAN FRANCIS" ' . Jan. 1.- -Geo. Winfield, the Nevada mining magtiat" said today that he had 1 1 -t ree.dvd any word from Goldfleld to Indicate that a settlement of the miners "trlke was near. He thought the situation still serious. So far as the Mohawk and other merged mines were concern ed, they would all be closed down when the leases expire in a few days and not reopened until conditions were satisfactory. Then the merger mines would build their own mills. WRESTLERS TIE. CHICAGO, Jan. 1. Carl Pons, the Frf-nch hf-avywflght champion wrest ler, and William Df-metral, a local Greek wrestler, divided honors today. Demetral took the first fall and Pons took the Rpcond. The third bout was decided a draw. FROM THE ANTILLES. Chamberlain's Cough Remedy Bene fits a City Councilman at King ston, Jamaica.
