In which she had been confined, rushed up the

edge OF the roof and dropped TO cornice, some six
or eight feet below. Upon this cornce. foot wide
and seventy-hye feet above the ground, tho wild
maniac wnlked back and forth for q quarter OF an
hour. Men rushed to the roof and passed rope to
her, and tried to persuade her To fasten It about her
body. but In vain. Below, beds were brought and
placed TO break tho fall, should she leap from her
perilous position. After remaining on the oornice
fifteen minutes, seemingly unconscious OF all dan
ger, she swung OF, and holding by the cornoe until
her feet touched cap OF the hfti story window,
she let go the cOrnico, and wonderful TO relate,
alighted erect and steady upon the cap, which was
but foot wide and four feet long. There. at that
fearful and dizzy height she stood gazing about for
4 quarter OF an hour. Then she seized firmly the
rope lowered to her, and leaped into tho air. The
strong arms above gradually lowered her aud when
she was about thirty feet from the ground she re-.
laxed her hold, and fell upon the beds below, and,
although stunned, was taken up uninjurod.
