wires, and then cut his way through the
rear door. All the family plate, ETC., was
in the vault, and could not be reached.
After searching the lower part
of the house, the masked robber visited the
servants quarters above and awakened two
girls who were in the room. lie held a re-
volver at their heads and made them go
down stairs and call Mrs. Ray, telling her
they were sick. When Mrs. Ray opened
the door the burglar told her if she uttered
a word he would blow her brains cut. She
was hidden to call her husband and did.
The burglar made the wolne stand in line,
under the penalty of death if they
moved. When MI. Ray came down he was
ordered to get all his cash and jewelry,
which he did, the burglar covering him with
his revolver. Jewelry and money amount
ing to nearly 81, 600 was handed the rob-
Der, which he pocketed, and then made Mr..
Ray escort him to the front door and let
him out. Then an alarm was raised, but
the thief had taken the three o'clock train
for Chicago and escaped.
While MI. Ray was going through his
pockets to get his watch, jewelry and
money, and then through his wife's bureau
for her jewelry, a little daughter, who was
sleeping in the same room, quietly left her
bed, gathered her OWL jewolry from an
cscritoire, and returning to her bed safely
placed it under her pillow. This was the
only jewelry i'll the house not locked up that

When the detectives gave up all hope of
finding MI. Libby, TWO days ago, his wife
was Frustrated with grief. The endeavors
OF her many friends and of James A.

aIolse her. The recollection that yesterday
was the anniversary of their wedding
rendered her all the more Respondent. The
family retired as usual about ten o'clock
last night. Half all hour later a Shrek
from Mrs. Libby's apartments aroused
the members Of the household. James
a. Libby hurried into her room and
foand her Oh a sofa. Beside her.

The Professional Friend of Labor and the
Politician.
Theodore Roosevelt, who is a straight
forward and incisive writer, tells a
story which 1 know to be q fact, and
tells it remarkably well. 1t is at the
expense of a prominent politician who
shall be nameless. The prominent pol
itician was chairman of an Assembly
committee. 1t gave a hearing to a
friend of laborb by profession who earned
his bread by the sweat of his jaw. He
talked work for "a living. The friend of
labor by profession found the prominent
politician in a high condition both Of
animal and ardent spirits.
This was shown when, while ad-
dressing the chair, the friend of labor
by profession said: Humble though |
am
Whereupon the Chairman, with great
dignity and tirmness, promptly inter
rupted him by saying:
"Stop, sir; l want to ask you a CUES
ton or two; Did you say Humble

The man amazedly admitted that he
did.
Are you not an American citizen,
sir?"
The man was constrained to say he
was.
"Well, then, SIR" Numbered the
aroused chairman, ''never say you are
humble. An American citizen has no
right to be humble. He is the equal of
any prince o%rpotentate on earth. Never
again call yourself humble in the pres
ence Of this committee"

"A milkman who was arraigned in
a Brooklyn court for watering his milk
admitted that he had been in the habit
OF adding three quarts of water to each
f%orty-quart can OF milk as long as he
had been in the business, which was
twenty years. The Milk Commissioner
made a calculation on this basis.
which showed that in the two score of
years the dishonest milkman had
realized $5,475 from about eight quarts
of water a day ju%diciously used. This
swindling trick is not only a fraud on
the consumer, but is a great injustice
to honest dealers, who are unable to
compete in price with their unscrupu-
