Twelve Are Overcome Trying to
Reach" Cash in Darby Be
fore Two Succeed
DAMAGE REACHES $6000j
Twelve firemen risked tliclr Uvea Inst
night in nn efTnrt to save a widow's
$2000 in n fire at 504 Main street,
Darby, but Vicrc overcome by smoke.
Tint when they dropped the work was
taken up by Cnptain William H. Ayrcs,
of the Drby Fire (Department, and Ray
mond Iliitts, of Darby Compnny No. 2,
and the money van at last saved from
the flamei and handed to the wailing
woman, Mrs. I'va Orocnbaum, widow of
nthan Orernbaum.
The firemen overcome were Ilarrv E.
Welsh, Oliver N. Smith. Jr., and M. II.
MnRnin. Jr., of Dnrby Fire Co., No. 1,
Tomes Dempster. James McDcvltt, Wil
liam, Ttrooks. Charles Johnson, Karl

All Hack on Duty
All were able to return to duty
after they had received treatment.
Mrs. (trcenbaum conducts n grocery
store at 504 Main street, Darby. About
7 o'clock Inst night she kindled n fire
in the heater. A few minutes later
smoke indicated that something was
wrong in the cellar.
A spark may hnva leaped from the
furnace door. At any rate, Mrs. Green
baum found the Cellar afire. After
vainlv trjing to put out the flames, she
ran back upstairs and carried out her
three-j ear-old son, Jacob. Then she
turned in an alarm.
Firemen from Darby and Colwyu
were soon there. While they were fight
ing the blaze. Mrs. Grccnbaum remem
bered that she had left her savings,
$2000, in u bureau drawer. She tried
to re-enter the building, but was re
strained. Smoke Fills Building
When the firemen learned the cause
of the widow's distress, they made a
heroic effort to get the money for her,
But by that time the fire hnd mounted
from the cellar and the building was
filled with choking smoke. One after
another twelve of the .firemen dropped,
gasping.
Then Captnin Ayres nnd Firemnn
Butts took hold of the task. Using
sponges to protect themselves from the
smoke, they managed to get into the
loom where the money was hidden.
Finding the money, nftcr groping about
in the smoke and darkness, they re
turned to the street.
Woman Is Grateful
Mrs. Grccnbaum is a delighted
u oinnn today, despite the fact that the
fire did about $0000 damage, chiefly to
the stock. She thinks every fireman in
Darby and Colwyn is n hero and should
hare a Carnegie medal.
After the money had been found, sev
eral persons appeared with army gas
imtjin Tliaan nrnvnrl ,,nful In PniTI
pleting the work of putting out the
flames.
Members of the ladies auxiliary of
Tire Company No. !: gave their help at
the fire. They served hot coffee to the
firemen while they fought the flames.
While the store was burning, several
airplanes from the aviation field at
('learvlcw passed overhend nnd circled
about, observing the spectacle from the
air.

WAR RISK BUREAU ASKS
Remarkable Case of Dual Iddntity Which Proves Hard Nut
for Investigator
By the Associated Press
Dnnbury, Conn., Nov. 10. A re
mnrknblo caso of dual identity was
mealed when a man arrested iu Nor
walk was brought here by O. J. Wnltc,
an investigator of the war risk insur
ance bureau. Waite arrested the man
ns Private Henry Bromley, Jr., of
Bethel, but he has decided to report to
Washington that the prisoner Is Snin
ucl Itcddy, of New Canaan, and that
Bromley is dead.
The case hns features which make
it one of the most uulipic developed
by the great war. It goes back to No
vember 20, Inst year, when Mr. and
Mrs. Henry Bromlcj, of Bethel, re
ceived word that their son hnd been
killed in notion in France. Mrs. Brom
ley committed suicide a few hours later.
I.nst May a soldier arrived In Bethel
nnd was greeted as Private Bromley.
The young ninn went to the Bromley
home where the elder Bromley welcomed
li 1 in as his son. After remaining in
Bethel several days, during which his
identity as young Bromley was not
questioned, the young man disappeared,
leaving word that he was not Private
Bromley, but Samuel Heddy.
The war risk insurance bureau rep
resentative appeared soon after to
straighten out the tangle over the in
surance money which hnd been paid
to Bromley after his son's death wns
reported. It was not until n few dnjs

late Theodore P. Shonts, in nn nppli
cation filed on behalf of the executors.
In which the removal of Mrs. Shouts
ns temporary .administrator nnd the
nppolntment of the executors in her
stead is demanded.
Mrs. Shouts wns ditected in nn order
signed by Surrogate Fowler to show
cause on Tuesday why the application
for her removal should not be granted.
She wns served wjith the order nt her
residence, but declined later to mnkc
anv stntement relntive to the case.
The alleged deceit with which Mrs
Shonts wns charged consisted of having
asked to bo appointed temporary ad

she had been unublc to find nny will,
whereas the executors under the will,
which made Mrs. Amnndn C. Thomas,
"the other woman," chief beneficiary
of the $474,000 estate, say Mrs.
Shonts's application was "a violation
of nn understanding between the attor

After n nine-day respite from the

Last week theic was a lush in nil

TT7-HENEVER I hear an exqui
yy site piece of music on the
New Edison phonograph I am
reminded of the old saying, "Fine
feathers make fine birds," for the ar
tistic period cases are quite worthy
of inclosing such a marvelous instru
ment. The mechanism of the New
Edison has been so perfected that it
re-creates exactly the sound of the
human voice and of all musical in
struments. Actual tests have been
made throughout the country, and
this fact has been proved without a
doubt to large audiences of music
lovers. Hear "Coming Home," a re
creation of Anna Case, of the Metro
politan Opera Company, at the
Steinway Warerooms, 1111 Chestnut
street. They will welcome you and
be glad to play it for you in one of
their comfortable and quiet booths.
OF ALL lovely gifts for Christ
mas, I have seen nothing quite
so lovely as the gold mesh batrs
at the store of Bailey, Banks & Biddlc
Company, Theie are small, plain
gold bags, with their tops exquisitely
chased, and others with tops of gold
and platinum. Some are set with
diamonds, and others with combina
tions of sapphires and diamonds and
emeralds and diamonds. Gold vanity
cases, beautifully chased and jew
eled, are worthy of accompanying
the most gorgeous of furs nnd the
richest of velvets to luncheon or tea.
Both the gold mesh bags and the
gold vanity cases are' to enjoy a sea
son of unusual popularity; and you
can be sure that cither of these gifts
will be accorded a cracious recep
tion, and especially when it bears the
name of Bailey, Banks & Biddle.
THERE is something in the air
at this time of year that brings
apples to mind something in
the wind that twirls the autumn
leaves and stings your cheeks that
makes you long to sink your teeth
into one of those big, juicy Delicious
Apples from Haliowell's. The De
licious is a fine-flavored apple, and
has become a great favorite. The
Jonathan is a more spicy apple, and
is at its best now. The crisp, snappy
Stayman Wine Sap an apple that
every one likes can now bo found
at Ity best nt the store of Henry R,
Hallo.vell & Son, Broad street be
low Chestnut. The most economical
way to buy apples is by the box.
They run from five dozen to eight
dozen ill a box n convenient quan
tity for the average family and
every apple is perfect.
IF YOU have never used an elcc
Jtric iron, you really can't begin
v$ appreciate its time and labor
savjng qualities. When you use an
electric iron you have no tiresome
trips to the stove, no bother with the
iron-holders and no trouble keeping
the ironine- surface smooth. One I
discovered the other day, the Ameri
can Beauty Electric Iron, sold by J.
Franklin ' Miller, iota Chestnut
street, has an extra-large ironing
surface and a cutaway nose that al
lows you a good view of your work.
A switch plug that is always cool
enough fo handle enables you to reg
ulate the heat of the iron, and w non
kink spring protects -the cord and
keeps it out of your way. ,Jn points

One if iron, white enameled, was
very atti active and, of couise a

DESPITE the scarcity of Om
ental rugs in the country at
the present time, an assoit
ment that is truly wonderful in de
sign and coloring is on display at the
store of Fritz & LaRue, Inc., 1124
Chestnut street. One exquisite Kcr
manshah lug that I saw showed rich
colorings of bulberry, ivoiy and
jade. Such a rug as this might well
be the keynote of any scheme of dec
oration. Another Kermanshah
showed faint pastel colorings of blue
and njauvo and yellow, reminiscent
of the paintings of Puvis de Chav
annes. Fritz & LaRue have assembled
these rugs in sizes to fit the rooms
in Philadelphia's suburban homes.
They range from 8 feet by 10 feet
to 20 feet by 28 feet, thiough a
great variety of in-between sizes.
A GIFT that is suie of a warm
reception on Christmas morn
ing is a hand-tinted nictuie by
such an artist as Nutting, Thompson
or Davidson. Theie aie at Fiank J.
Curry's, 812 Chestnut sheet, many
interesting subjects from which to
choose a row of tiees against an
autumn sky, or an apple tree in full
bloom nre two most attiactive ones.
There are delightfully quaint Colon
ial interiors, too, which would mnkc
acceptable gifts for the friend who
delights in furnishing her house with
things Colonial. If you contem
plate having prints of your own
framed, it is Dest not to delay in
placing your older, for the labor
question enters materially into this
vcrk and makes it impossible to
promise Christmas deliveries on
orders placed later than the end of
this month.
IN YOUR search for the unusual

A collection of articles which it
