WOMAN JAILED FOR BEATING MAD Hired Girl at $1.25 Per Week Had Rough Time London.--Described as the wife of an officer in the Royal Navy, Mrs. Helen Malet Warden was sent to prison for a month at Ro- chester for beating her servant. It was stated that the servant, Eva Pittilla, who was 17, came to Mrs. Warden from Sunderland last No- vember. She was to have been paid $1.25 a week, but alleged that ome payment of $1.10 was all that she had received. The girl said that she was fre- quently beaten with sticks, and de- clared that Mrs. Warden had broken two hair brushes over her. Every washing day, because she could not lift the sheets, she was thrashed. She wrote to her father at Sund- erland asking for money to pay her fare home, but Mrs. Warden heard of this and she threatened to take her into the basement and give her the worst thrashing she had had in her life. Collapse In April, said rva, Mrs. Warden cut her hair off without her consent. Mrs. Warden's children were unkind to her and had occasionally assisted their mother in thrashing her. She was not alowed to go out alone and her life became so intoler- able that she eventually put a note under the gate to the servant next door, THE OSHAWA DAILY.
