She thrust Into the hands of two po
licemen In the hallway of the Blltmoro
Apartment. No. 263 West 129th street, sep
arated from tho burning houso by a six
foot airshaft, an Ironing board.
They used tho board as a bridge from a
fltth-story window of tho Ulltmora to tho
roof bf the burning building, where
women and children were screaming In
panic or kneeling In prayer, heavy clouds
of smoke sweeping upon tnam ana names
retting hearsr and nearer., ,. , ,.
One policeman crawled across tne iron
ing board and, steadying It on the c"dgo of
the burning building's. roof, guided women
nnd children over It to the policeman In
tho Dlltmore window. It wasn't many
minutes after nil wero safa when tho roof,
with a, great spout of flro and sparks,

escapes. Chlof Kenton said last night ho believed

The reserves of three station houses
were called out to pollco tho crowd of
several thousands watching the fires nnd
rescues. Policeman Martin Delano and
Morris Mnnnlsof manned the Ironing
board bridge, and tremendous cheering
went up when they were seen carrying
to safety women, a man and a little
boy, too daxed to walk the bridge,
i One of the women, Miss Knthcrlne
Lewis,, 23, nnd her nged mother, Anna,
were only half-conscious. Miss Lewis was

und York streets that lie went to the
rescue. The boys managed to get the cat
to the top of tho pole before CInrenco
reached the scone. P.ussy took n grip on
the cross anus and then managed to
shake from her head the noose with
which she had been raised. Foiled In their
attempt to have a lynching party, the
young desperadoes then brought a 'bull
dog, which they knew was an avowed
enemy of the cat. to wplt for her when
she slid to the bottom of tho pole.
Clarence told tho dog there was ".nothln'
doln'," but the bull only gave him a de
fiant yowl. Ho kicked the animal Into
the street. The cat. which had been
watching from Its safety first perch, -then
took a daredevil slide to the ground. The
dost made a flank movement nnd got a
neck hold on the cat, There was a Hurry
of legs and tails mingled with unearthly
jells. Mullen made matters worse by
rooting for the cat. When the feline got
Its second wind It clawed the bull un
mercifully and the latter ran off ln-dls.

to depart he became defiant and was
taken before Magistrate Glenn at the th
