HEIRESS-WIFE. IN WAKT.JIDES MAfilE "Mrs. Thelma Ray" Advertising for Missing Husband.
MAY BE A GARY WOMAN Te deserted yonnu wife referred to Ib The Examiner atory l thought to have lived at 451 Jefferson Gary, but at that address there Is a aewly-bullt small apartment house and the landlord says that no woman with a baby ever lived at the address.
Mystery surrounds the Identity of the 19-year-old girl-wife who, alone and
destitute, though a member or a
wealthy Indiana family, yesterday sent
out an appeal for the return of her
husband. The girl, under the name of Mrs. Thclraa Ray, Is living with her three-months-old baby boy In a rooming house at 6108 Washington avenue. They were deserted by tho husband and father two months ago.
Yesterday "Mrs. Ray" Inserted a per
sonal In The Examiner, which read:
"Mrs. F. Ray and baby boy are at
6108 Washington avenue, without mon
ey and unable to work; can't go home
on account of . trouble; husband must
come for her and telegraph immedl ately after reading this ad."
When seen at the rooming house,
"Mrs. Ray," though willing to tell her
story, carefully guarded her Identity. :-My parents," she said, "live In Indiana. I am unwilling to appeal to them for
aid for purely personal reasons, and do not want- them to learn of my con ditlon.-
"It is, to keep them from learning
of my plight that I have taken an assumed name. My husband brought me
to Chicago. He then went away and took our clothing. He left me with
but 120. Two days ago I received
letter from him in which he told me to
insert a personal in The Examiner on
July 1 if I needed him.
"I have not heard from him yet If
I do not hear from him tomorrow
will start out and try to find some way of making enough to take care of my
baby and myself."
SHOCKING ACCIDENT
TAKES PLACE
Continued from Par om
scious. Hart was operated on yesterday and the operation seems to have been successful. E. N. McCullough, proprietor of the hotel, who was playing hall with the
others, ran for water which be dashed In the faces of the two injure! players but is was five minutes before either regained consciousness. As soon as he had come to, young Hart, supported on either side by a boy companion, walked to his home. Owen was supported into the hotel Already on reaching his home a lump of great size formed on young Hart's forehead and his head pained him frightfully. A physician was summoned and Judged from the fact that patient vomited blood frequently, that nis skull was fractured. He advised his rmoval at once to a hospital so In company with his mother and father and Rev. M. M. Day he was taken to the South Shore hospital, Windsor Park, In an ambulance. It was impossible to operate until the x-ray could be put on the patient and the fracture located.

This was done yesterday morning, the
photograph resulting from the x-ray
being returned at 3 p. m. and showed
a fracture of the inner skull bone and
a slot of blood formed on the brain where the skull was splintered. An
immediate operation was advised the physicians who consulted the case
agreeing that without an operation the
boy would either die within two day
or if he did not die he would face cer

Are you suflfering from the heat these July days? 'No matter if th mercury goes up to 126 in the shade there's no excuse for it. Just learn from the children how to keep nice and cool. If you find your office oppressively hot, rush down to the nearest water main, turn it on and climb into the shower. YouHl enjoy it Just as much as the boys in the picture. Another method of keeping cool is suggested in the lower picture. Hunt up the old swimmin hole and forget business cares. YouH live longer. Of course the further method might be employed of going barefoot, but it is doubtful if this would relieve the situation very much, as the sidewalks get very hot in the middle of the day. And besides, there is some doubt as to the dignity of such a course. Take lesions from the youngsters, but don't go too far.

LIFE GUARD SAVES WHITING lilAII'S LIFE
of Public Works Shown Yesterday.
(Special to Thb Times.) Whiting. Ind., July 3. Ames Barterska, the life-guard at tho . Whiting park, had his first opportunity to du rescue work yesterday morning, when he saved John Kosln, , of 407 John street, Whiting, from drowning. Kosin was on a raft about fifty fest from shore, when he fell off, and being unable to swim, called for help. Barterska, who was on the beach, heard the man's cries, and as he saw him
go down the second time, jumped Into
the water, clothes and all. The anxious spectators on the shore waited breathlessly to see the result, and before many moments Barterska swam -shore with Kosin In his arms.
LADDIE
DRINKS POISON
Little Kalman Reppa, the young nan of Mr. and Mrs. John Reppa, cashier of the First ' Calumet Trust ar.d Saving bank, saw a saucer of fly-poison sitting in the window of his home in Calumet yesterday. There were several flies in liquid and to his infantile mind they probably resembled berries. At any rate
Kosin was practically exhausted, but f the mess looked deltclously ".ike a dish
after the usual means of resuscitation
were used he was quite himself again. It was after Ihis occurance that Barterska was -cheered, as he has proven his value without a doubt In the saving of a human life. Kosin Is a married man. about thirty years of age, and is employed at the Standard Oil Company. He. says he owes his life, without a doubt, to Barterska. Realizing the treachery of the lake this year, the beach being very dangerous, Barterska was appointed as life guard and swimming trainer by the Board of Public Works about two weeks ago. It can be readily seen that the move was a good one for had there been a life-guard at the park about three weeks ago the , life of "Casey" Jones, a popular young . man of this city, would have also been saved.

of stewed tried currents. He dipped h'S little fingers Into the liquor. Yes it wis sweet. So young Reppa turned up the saucer and drank off the contents. A.id they the . stomach-ache began. Mrs. Reppa came Into the room Just in time to see what the son and heir of the house of Reppa had accomplished, and --simultanlously -with the commencement of the stomach ache she telephoned for the doctor. Then s.te called Mr. Reppa from the bank. The doctor was pretty busy all yesterday going back and forth between his other patients and the Reppa home and little Kalman was certainly a, pretty busy baby. 'As long as it ended all right and he is much Improved this morning, everything is O. K. But Mr. Reppa says there is to be no more liquid poison around and that hereafter the flies will be allowed to live 'or to pull their legs out on stlckly fly paper.
