"A MISER WORTH’ $50,000.”
The Brooklyn Police Take Steps to Have
Bertha May Cared For.
A policeman on duty in Lafayette avenue, near Franklin avenue, in Brook]
early-on--Friday -morning -met an ol
woman apparently in pitiable destitution. Her feet were: bare, she had no
with a coarse piece of rope. She was
trembling with cold, was emaciated and
was altogether the most deplorable looking human object the policeman had ever
encountered.
He was about to take her to the police
station to giveher shelter when she told
him that-she was looking for a Mrs,
Townsend, who lived in the neighborhood, The policeman found Mrs, Townsend, and the latter said she would take
care of the woman, with whom she was
well acquainted.
It turned out that the woman was the
‘owner Of a fine four story brick house at
834 Bedford avenue, had s bank account
‘of $15,000 and possessed other property.
and that herentire wealth was estimated
at between $50,000 and $60,000. Her
mame is Bertha May, and she has long
‘been the solitary occupant of the big
Bedford avenue house. Not even a dog,
‘cat or bird has shared her seclusion. She
is 74 years old and has been a widow
for nearly 80 years. Her husband, Edward May, had a wig store in this city
‘when she married him, and she has carefully watched over the fortune he left
ther.
Mr. SEAS escorted the aged re‘«cluse to her home yesterday morning
‘and then went around to the Clermont
Avenue police station and called the attention of Captain Hardy to the wretchwity of providing for her. Captain Hardy
sent Detective Sergeant Fitzpatrick to
‘the house to make an investigation.
Fitzpatrick secured an entrance by representing himself as a building inspector
‘and made a tour of the premises, He repe to Captain Hardy that from celar to roof the house was in an intoler.
-ably filthy eondition, and that there were
several years’ accumulation of dust. on
So miserly is the old woman that she
‘will not even buy the food she needs and . .
would starve to death did not a benevolent family in the neighborhood supply
her daily with bread and coffee.—New
York Sun.
Don't Judge by Appearances.
., Aone legged street beggar who, rain
orshine, sits every day with outstretched
hand on the steps of. a warehouse in a
down town cross street is quite a philosas his experience gi little can be
or women by their appearance. Sometimes, he says, he will see a man approaching who seems to be the personification of charity: allied with opulence.
The beggar stre,chés forth his hand with
confidenes, but withdraws it with disap‘pointment. Then there hurries by a Mephistophelian looking creature, seedy
perhaps, with a cynical smile on his face,
‘who drops a quarter into the beseeching
‘palm. Among women, the beggar capes
the best. dressed are seldom the
‘charitable. There are tare eg to rie
that a street beggar can ‘‘size-up’’ a pedestrian by his appearance is erroneous.
—New Yerk World.
‘ Falling Eyes.
“T think the eye power of the present
generation of civilized men must have
deteriorated a good deal,’’ said_ an oculist to me the other day. ‘‘I am called . '
upon to examine so many young persons .
nowadays whose eyes show no symptoms of disease or strabismus, but are
simply unable to do the ordinary amount
of work required of schoolboys, schoolgirls, college students or moderate read‘ers without showing symptoms of overwork *
‘This weakness seems to be bustin:
tional, and glasses are required which
lessen the muscular strain on the eyes
-only. If spite of the invention of the
typewriter, which has relieved the eye
of so much work, the state of things is
almost equally as prevalent in business
circles as among students, ’’i

as distress after eating, heartburn, and occasional headaches, should not be neglected,
