TOTAL CAPITAL TWO NICKELS, SHOW GIRL TAKES OWN LIFE
Long Illness Prompts Burlesque Dancer to Fatal Act
Out of work since September and nearly penniless, Sylvia HAZARD, 20 a
chorus girl and dancer, ended her life with gas in her furnished room at
the Melrose Apartments, 15 Throop Avenue, last night, according to the police.
Patrolman Ralph GALEANO, of Clymer street station, summoned to the house by
other tenants who had smelled gas, forced his way into the young woman's
room and found her lying on the floor, fully clothed, with gas escaping
from a heater. She had stuffed a turkish towel in the crack under the door
and filled up the keyhole with her powder puff to prevent escape of the
fumes from the room, police say.
PULMOTOR USED
Dr. GOLDBERG, of Beth Moses Hospital, and the emergency squad from Clymer
street station, the latter using a pulmotor, worked over the girl for some
time before Dr. GOLDBERG finally declared her dead.
Lying on a table near the body police found a note which read:
"To whom it may concern: I did what was right. I don't ever want any one
to say I was a coward, because it took more 'guts' to live than die. I
want everybody to know that I love them. Goodbye. SYLVIA."
On a sideboard in the room police found two nickels, which, apparently was
all the money the girl had.
SHOW DISBANDED
Miss HAZZARD'S last engagement was with the Mutual Burlesque Wheel circuit
in "The Girl from the Follies," early last fall. After two weeks' tour
with the road company through New England, she was let out in Bridgeport,
Conn., in September, the police were told. The show is said by the police
to have disbanded in Chicago three weeks ago.
Miss HAZZARD, an attractive young woman, with chestnut brown hair and blue
eyes, was well known among the players at the Gayety Theatre, across the
street from the Melrose Apartments, and she had been back stage at the
theatre Saturday to chat with her friends. Her body was identified by Frank
MALLAHAN, who is with a stock company now playing at the Gayety.

THRURLOW NOVEL READ BY SUICIDE
Sylvia HAZZARD, the 20-year-old actress who committed suicide in her room
at 15 Throop avenue after having been out of work for three months, read
"the Mating Cry," by John THURLOW, before deciding to end her life, it
became known today.
The book was found among her effects, by the police of Clymer street
station. One of the concluding paragraphs read:
"In the semi-light, she seized the glass and then swayed as if the poison
had already acted. Then she steadied herself. She must get back to her bed."
And the story ended:
"I say unto you, her sins are forgiven, for she loved too much."

FUNERAL RITES FOR MRS. STONE AT MAYFLOWER
Episcopal Minister to Officiate in Plymouth Congregational Branch
The closing chapter of a romance that first bloomed in Kent, England,
the old world's county of churches, will be written to-night in Brooklyn,
the new world's city of churches, when funeral services are held for
Mrs. Alice STONE, 54 years old, an Episcopalian, in the Mayflower
Branch of Plymouth Church, Congregationalist body.
Mrs. STONE, who with the surviving members of her family occupied
apartments on the second floor of the Mayflower Branch, Lawrence and
Johnson streets, met and married her husband, George, who survives her,
on the northern downs of Kent. They sought their fortunes first in
Canada and then came to Brooklyn eleven years ago.
Explaining how an Episcopal funeral service is to be held in a
Congregationalist church, Mr. STONE said; "When Alvin VOEGELE,
superintendent of the Sunday school of Plymouth Church, which now holds
forth in this church, heard of our bereavement, he insisted that we
use the chapel downstairs as ours."
And so tonight the Rev. Samuel M. DORRANCE, rector of St. Ann's
Protestant Episcopal Church, will officiate. He will also officiate
at the interment services to be held in Mt. Olivet Cemetery, Maspeth,
to-morrow. According to Mr. VOEGELE, the funeral will be the first to
be held from the church, so far as he knows. The colonial structure on
Johnson street during the more than three-quarters of a century of a
stirring history has always been used as an adjunct to the famous Plymouth
Church on Orange street.
Mr. STONE, in describing the varied journeys of his typical Anglo-Saxon
family, said that he and his wife were married thirty-one years ago in
their home in Kent. He said the cathedrals and monasteries in which the
County of Kent abounds are similar to those of Brooklyn except for the
fact that English shire's edifices are centuries older than those in this
borough. Mrs. STONE is also survived by a daughter, Doris, and a son John.

YOUTH KILLED BY PATROLMAN IN BATH BEACH
Shot in Flight From Stolen Auto-Companion Surrenders
The body of a 17-year-old boy lies unclaimed in the morgue after he was
shot and instantly killed early to-day while trying to escape from a
patrolman when he was discovered in a stolen car. His 15-year-old
companion is to appear in Children's Court.
The victim was John OLSEN, of Old Bridge, N.J. Attempts to find his parents
or other relatives have been futile.
John MESSINGER, 15, of Spotwood, N.J., was in a stolen automobile with
OLSEN shortly after 2 o'clock this morning near Highlawn avenue and West
Eighth street.
Patrolman John DOWLING, of the Bath Beach station, noticed the car parked
without lights and recognized the license number as one which had been
reported stolen during the night.
DOWLING said that, as soon as he approached the machine, young OLSEN,
jumped out and started to run. He called for him to halt, he said and then
fired several shots. One of the bullets went through OLSEN'S back,
piercing his heart and killing him immediately.
After an investigation in the Bath Beach police station, DOWLING was
exonerated by Assistant Districk Attorney Bernard BECKER and Deputy Chief
Inspector Vincent J. SWEENEY of all blame in the killing. From the stories
of DOWLING and MESINGER, the authorities decided that DOWLING was justified
in firing the shot that killed OLSEN.
Terror-stricken at the sight of his companion lying on the sidewalk, the
MESSINGER boy became hysterical in the machine. He was taken to the Bath
Beach station where, policy say, he admitted to Acting Lieutenatn Frank
BALK that he and OLSEN had stolen three machine in Brookklyn, took them to
New Jersey and then sold parts of them to garages.
The machine in which the two boys were caught was the property of William
KLENCK, of 338 Eighth street. It was reported stolen from Sixth avenue and
Fourth street at 10 P.M.

YOUTH, 18, SLAIN AND PAL SHOT ROBBINE STORE
Cop in Rear of Brownsville Grovery Surprises Two in Holdup
Another youthful bandit is dead and still another is dying to-day as police
are continuing their "shoot-to-kill" war on crime in Brooklyn.
Joseph SELEN, 18, of 306 Stone avenue, dropped dead with two police bullets
in his body when Patrolman Peter VOLBERG, of the Miller avenue station,
caught him in the act of holding up a grocery store.
Peter VENTO, his companion, only 16 years old, of 52 Watkins street, is
dying in Trinity Hospital with a bullet lodged in his shoulder after the
boy made a futile attempt to fun away from the policeman after he was
ordered to halt.
John OLSEN, only 17, was killed several days ago when he attempted to flee
from a stolen automobile.
The shooting last night started in a little grocery store owned by Max
LUBIN, at 1041 Belmont avenue. SELEN fell dead in the doorway of the store
when the boys ran into Patrolman VOLBERG. VENTO dropped to the pavement
critically wounded after VOLBERG chased him two blocks and fired three
shots at him in the dark.
COP IN REAR OF STORE
Obeying instructions from Capt. Jacob KAMINSKY, VOLBERG last night went
from store to store telling merchants that if they were held up they should
throw something through the windows of their shops to attract attention of
police. After he had given LUBIN this information he went to a room in the
rear of the store for a drink of water.
Just as he was about to return, VOLBERG noticed LUBIN backing toward the
rear of the store with his hands raised. Two men, one holding a gun, were
ordering him to the rear room. Stepping aside, VOLBERG drew his service
revolver and then ordered the boys to drop their gun.
Instead of obeying, however, they both turned and started to run from the
store. VOLBERG fired three shots, two of the bullets entering SELEN'S body
and killing him immediately. VENTO jumped
over his fallen companion and ran down Belmont avenue with VOLBERG in
pursuit. On account of the large number of pedestrians on the street,
VOLBERG was afraid to fire but when VENTO turned into Euclid avenue, which
virtually was deserted, VOLBERG fired the other three shots in his gun.
COMPANION DEAD
Then VOLBERG picked the lad up, carried him back to the store and placEd
him beside his dead companion. Dr. CUTLER, of Trinity Hospital, pronounced
SELEN dead and took VENTO to Trinity Hospital where it was said to-day no
hope was held for his recovery.
VOLBERG, who has been on the force only three years, was congratulated for
his work by Assistant Chief Inspector who came to the Miller street station
to make an investigation.

By Dixie TIGHE
Vivian GORDON, found strangled to death in Van Cortlandt Park, previously
met violence at the hands of a man who she believed, according to her
diary, would have something to do with her death.
Sam COHEN, alias Charles HARRIS and "Chowderhead," now in the county jail
held as a State's material witness, called at Miss GORDON'S apartment,
remained all evening and then forced her into the elevator and out into a

where Vivian GORDON lived.
This occurred a few days after Miss GORDON had written to District Attorney
MC LAUGHLIN, of the Bronx, threatening to expose policemen to a vice
frameup. SEIBERS was said to have told this story to MC LAUGHLIN this
morning, but the district attorney has denied it.

POISON ALCOHOL KILLS THREE AT SHEEPSHEAD 'SMOKE' PARTY
One Man Collapses in Cellar, Others Wander, Dazed
Three men are dead and police today are searching for two others believed
to be victims of an alcohol party at which denatured alcohol, diluted with
water, was consumed in large quantities. The party was held in the cellar
at 2577 East Seventeenth street yesterday and, as a result of the tragic
end, police are planning a drive against "alky" and "canned heat" parties
which, they have learned, have been going on in the isolated section of
Sheepshead Bay, near Avenue X.
The three victims were:
Thomas MULCAHEY, 41, of 1070 Pitkin avenue
Eric STRANG, 44, who lived at the East Seventeenth street address.
At least two more men were believed to have taken part in the party and
police fear they have wandered off to one of their haunts or to some
deserted section along the beach and died. Neighbors informed detectives
that such parties have been going on for some time and all three of the
dead men were said to be known in the community as "canned heat" addicts.
Empty bottles with denatured alcohol labels on them were found in the
cellar where the fatal party had been held. There also were cans of
"canned heat." A large pan was found on a stove in which the denatured
alcohol was boiled before it was diluted with water.
Detectives James HIBBARD and John HARRINGTON, who are making an
investigation, learned that the men bought the denatured alcohol at a
nearby hardware store telling the proprietor they were doing some
painting. The detectives pointed out that if the denatured alcohol is
boiled long enough and enough water is added, the drinkers are stupefied
but in the majority of the cases it does not prove fatal.
STANG was found unconscious in the cellar where the party had been held and
was pronounced dead upon arrival at Coney Island hospital. Stupefied and
staggering about the street in their stocking feet, the other two
were picked up by a cab driver at Ocean and Emmons avenues. They died
several hours after they were taken to the hospital. All three bodies are
being held in the morgue at Kings County Hospital for autopsies.
Haigaz AMODOONI, proprietor of a hardware store at 1401 Neck road,
Sheepshead Bay, was arrested later in connection with the deaths of the
three, following the discovery of another quart of denatured alcohol in
possession of a vagrant near the scene of the deaths.

A man identified as Nicholas GUILIANO, 31, of 98 Carlton avenue, was found
unconscious, his body riddled with three bullets, by police in a three-room
apartment at 1700 Sterling place early to-day. He was alone and there was
every indication of a terrific struggle having taken place. Taken to St.
Mary's Hospital, the man died about five hours later.
Police were notified of a fight in the apartment when repeated telephone
calls from women to Atlantic avenue station shortly before midnight asked
them for assistance. Patrolman Thomas CURREN found everything quiet and
three women standing in the lower hall.
The door to the apartment was forced open with the aid of the building
superintendent and GUILIANO was found stretched on the floor in the bedroom
with bullets in his back, abdomen and right wrist.
The room furnishings were upside down and there were about twelve bullet
holes in the walls. A rear window was found open, which police believe,
the man's assailants used in making their getaway. In the rear yard was
found a 32 calibre revolver.
A woman who said she was Mrs. Sadie LARY, wife of Michael LARY, in whose

investigation and was questioned by police.

just before the shooting was sent out, as he is wanted for questioning.
She said she had been requested to go out and find her husband by four men
who had appeared earlier in the evening at the apartment. She complied
with their request, and came back to find the police there.
Police said they had received numerous complaints about the
apartment. Herman KATZ, superintendent of the building was on the point of

BOY, 16, KILLED; TWO PALS HELD FOR BURGLARY
Special Cop Traps Trio in Cellar of Brownsville Store-Shot to Scare
Joseph LEVITSKY, 16, of 291 Osbor? street, died in St. Mary's Hospital
early to-day of a bullet wound inflicted by a random shot of a private
detective in an effort to scare him and another youth into surrender while
they were attempting to rob a candy store in Brownsville. LEVITSKY'S two cronies,
Alexander PAVLIUK 1, of 666 Dumont avenue and John MAZURKEWITZ, ?8, of 40
Howard avenue, were locked up in Brownsville police station on charge of burglary.
The shot that ended LEVITSKY'S life was fired by Special Officer Samuel
COHEN, of 243 Blake avenue, manager of a private detective agency which
specializes in guarding Brownsville stores. While walking along the
westerly side of Stone avenue early to-day COHEN noticed a cigarette light
in the candy store of Harry LUBIN, at 420 Stone avenue. He went around to
Christopher street, and crawled on his hands and knees to the rear of the
store where he found two bars removed from a rear window and a lock broken
off a cellar door. PAVLIUK came out into the yard and when COHEN grabbed
him, a struggle insured for several minutes until the youth was under the
officer's control.
While holding PAVLIUK, COHEN fired a shot through the open cellar door, and
ordered the others to come out. When there was no response, he walked to
an all-night restaurant at Pitkin avenue and Christopher street, where he
found Detective George MC GOWEN of Brownsville station, into whose custody
he placed PAVLIUK. Both returned to the cellar of the candy store and
found LEVITSKY lying on the cellar floor with a flashlight in his hand, and
MAZURKEWITZ hiding behind a counter.LEVITSKY was taken to ST. Mary's Hospital
by Dr. ANUNZIATA. He died an hour later.
A hacksaw and several boxes of candy tied up ready to be taken away were
found by the two detectives in the store.
COHEN came into prominence over eight years ago, when he captured one of
the two men who shot and killed Patrolman John MC MAIL in a running gun
fight. COHEN later tracked down one of the gunmen in a monument works in Brownsville.

yesterday was identified last night as that of John DOYLE, 55, of 825
Bedford avenue. James GILL, driver of the automobile, according to police,
lives in the same house. No police action was taken against him.
Henry L. SCHAFER, 41, of 28 Madison street, Lynbrook, was killed in a crash
near Mattituck.
Thomas CRONIN, employed as a chauffeur on the estate of Mrs. Charles F.
PROCTOR, at Syosset, died when his automobile struck a telephone pole at
the foot of a steep hill near Oyster Bay.
SCHAFER'S brother-in-law, Chester BARRETT, of 107 Sackville road,
Greenport, was seriously injured when the automobile driven by the former
got out of control on the State highway at Mattituck and struck a tree at
the side of the road.
BARRETT is in the Eastern Long Island Hospital, in Greenport, with a
possible fracture of the skull.
Two other men who were passengers in the car, suffered from shock but went
home after treatment at the same hospital. They were William E. MITCHELL
and Walter D. SHUCKLING, both of Lynbrook.
Another man expected to die is Patrick DEE, said to be employed as a groom
on the estate of James A. BURDEN, also at Syosset. He was with CRONIN in
the automobile driven by Samuel HARRIS, a Negro, who is a groom on the
PROCTOR estate, and who escaped with slight lacerations of the nose and lips.

steep grade of Mill Hill road when the car evidently got out of his
control. It sped down the hill, gathering great momentum, and at the foot
of the hill crashed against the telephone pole and was over-turned.

was found that both had received skull fractures. As they were being
removed to the hospital CRONIN died.

overtaken by police reporting at the scene of the accident. He was not
arrested, however.
