where he Iay apparently stunned by the fail:
AIR. Maude seeing his condition, got pistol
and went down stairs for another engage
ment, but when he arrived at the spot the
thief was nowhere to be seen.
The lady's presence of mind under the
trying ordeal was something marvellous. She
seemed to appreciate the whole situation be-
tween an armed robber on the alert and her
unarmed husband suddenly awakened out OF
a deep sleep. She was not willing to risk the
chances until a fright might drive the roDber
towards the window. This bad precisely
the effect she must have calculated, without
being aware of it. In any other position the
robher would have been forced to cut MS
way out, as he doubtless would have done;
She knew there was nothing lying around
loose for him to steal, and quietly awaited
the proper time to make charge. Ii was
bravcly done. A woman's strategy won
that battle handsomely. The ncighborhood
has engaged a private watchman to guard
against s,ici, visitatons in the future.

Tho sc,cace Of Probabilities.

Dear Dispatch: Pray why treat so s''she.
ingly the doctrine Of chances? We 40 not
reject the principles governing ordinary
mathematics because tyro sometimes biuh-
dcrs in demonstration; and, certcs, inc
law of probabilities is an exact science. Az
Stunning the letters Of the alphabet 10 occur
in their initial character with e4ttu !ie-
ouency, the chances against the noinsnacioh
of three named letters, or rather the ulpIe
nomination of named letter, Will OF course
he 1876 to ]. But the case I'D point Is
simply the triple nomination of an unnamed
letter. the chances against which would ne
but G7G to I. The letter G, however,
occurs ms the initial Of American family
names once In about seventeen times,
which would reduce the practical probability
10 in 442. Events, my dear sir, are con-
stantly transpiring, and out Of every az
there will occur a coincidence rs remarknbie
in It's nature as the denomination OF Greeley,
Grant, and Grocsbeck. But you say, "Ihese
two candidates having been nominated, WHAT
was the chance that third should be MONT
mated whose name begins with the letter y !!
Let us say as one to thousand" :,
Now, do beg that we may not DE required
to say any such thing, since the chance woula
be precisely one in twenty-six. An accom-
yrished ercnt does not influence future
PROBABILITIES.

A DISCOVERY FIVE YEARS LATER.
But last month, five years after the inter
view with the mysterious Stranger at
mont. it was discovered who he was. Al
one III the leading hotels in Ems, the fashion
able ,yaterinc-place in Western Germany,
there had stopped for some time an elderly
gentleman, who had registered bis name as
Lord Chichester, and who had borrowed q
considerable sum OF money from his landlord
ON q check on the Westminster Bank, OF
London The check came back protested.
the officers of the London bank reporting
that they knew no such person as Lord
Chichester. .s .s,rs ,.u,
Asa matter, of course the elderly gentle
man was arrested, and an examination of his
trunks showed at once conclusivcly that he
was a swindler. He had with him thou
sands of new visiting cards, bearing the
names of distinguished statesmen and diplo-
mats. About one hundred of them bore the
name of the Hon. George Bancroft. A large
number of letters, too, were found in the
trunks, and they established Enthusiastically
the fact that he had used the aliases Of dis
tinguished public men for the purpose OF
obtaining money from persons easily duped.
Among these letters was the one which
Madame MuhIbach had written for the stran'
ger at Pyrmont, and which had evidently
