A Queer Burglar Alarm.

The little house formerly occupied by
stephen Valentine, who committed sui
eide by hanging at West Chester on
Wednesday, was broken into by the
Coroner yesterday. 1t stands alone
about quarter Of mile from the viii
lagc Of West Chester. He had lived
there alone.
Upon entering Stephens dwelling, il
was found that the doors and windows
were not only locked and bolted in the
ordinary way, but were tied with pieces
of cord wherever hold could be obtain
cd. One long, stout cord, one end of
which was tied TO the front 6oor, was
found TO lead up stairs to Nj. Valen-
tines bedroom. His neighbo ,ay that
every night, before going to ped, he
tied the upper end of this cord TO the
great toe of one Of his feet. so that in
case any one broke open the door in the
night it would give his toe such a TUG as
to awaken him. Beneath the bed
clothes were found several heavy clubs,
a bar Of iron, and a large Colts revol-
Yer, every chamber of which was loaded.

but theresultant of bodily powers. Why,
then, is my soul themorc luminous when
my bodily powers begin to fail? Winter
is on my head, and eternal Spring is in
my heart. Then ! breathe, at this hour,
the fragrance of the Glacs, the yiOets

around me the immortal symphonies of
the worlds which invite me. 1t is mar
yclous yet simple. 1t is fairy tale, and
it is history. For half u century have
been writing my thoughts in prose,
verse, history, philosophy, drama ro-
nance, tradition. satire, ode, song-I
have tried all. But feel that have
not said the thouSandth part of what is
in me. When go down TO the grave /
