A farmer named johnson, living near
Clinton, Wis, the other Sunday morn
ing, when preparing to leave for church
with his family, noticed rough-looking
customer lying under some currant-
bushes. Mr.. johnson suspected from
the fellows caution that he was far more
dangerous than the ordinary tramp, and
gave Instructions to his SON Calvin, who
i 10 years old, to fasten the doors, pull
down the curtains. and watch for de-
velopments. After the family had gone
a short time, young johnson heard a
noise in his bedroom, and, going inside
the room, waited at the foot of his bed,
with revolver in hand, and, when the
thief was climbing into the room through
the window, told him to 60 away, or he
would blow out his brains, but the dar-
ing burglar ran to and grappled with
Calvin, grabbing hold Of the weapon.
johnson pulled the trigger, and shot the
prowler through the left hand, the bull
let nearly coming out at the top Of his
wrist. When this was done, he cried
for mercy, and Calvin tied him to the
bedstead with ropes. He was taken to
town, and DIR. James extracted the bull
let. The trial took place Monday morn
ing before Justice SlossoL, in crowd
ed courtroom, when it was learned that
the Villains name was Lewis Hansen,
and that he was of Norwegian parent
age. The Judge sent him up for 80
days. Chicago Tribune.

Most people know That light colors
make rooms look larger than dark ones,
though il is probable that few can en-
tirely realize the wonderful difference
between them until they have seen walls
painted dark or the reverse. A light
picture by the same law makes room
look larger, and a picture darker than
the wall II is hung upon will reduce the
size of the room, unless the lightness Of
the frame is sufficient TO compensate for
the difference. Perhaps the present de-
cided taste for light pictures is partly
due TO this. A rule in the arrangement
Of interiors may be deduced from these
observations, which is, that when room
Is smaller than we should like It TO be,
we ought to hang very light pictures in
it, and when ii Is uncomfortably large
we should reduce it with dark ones.
But there are other things to be consid-
cred. Pictures which represent narrow
interiors do not enlarge rooms much,
because they convey feeling Of con-
finement; but landscapes with vast dis
tances enlarge rooms immensely. In
engravings and water-colors the margin
has an important effect. The Wilderness
Of II may be ample compensation for the
darkness Of the print itself Hamerto''.
