Now Branscome was an enthusiast in
regard to antique silver. His sideboard
was laden with choice early Italian and
old English plate, which he used every
day upon his table and never locked in
the safe at night. The thought that he
was about to be robbed of these reused
him to a grim fury against the vandals
who had invaded his home to despoil
him of his possessions. He set his
teeth hard, grasped the Indian club
firmly and made his way toward the
basement stairs
The door creaked loudly as he opened
it, and for ten or fifteen seconds there
was silence, then directly below him,
apparently approaching the foot of the
stairs, he heard a sound like muf1ed
footsteps.
The burglars were frightened, he
thought, and were about to escape.
The basement hall was enwrapped in
inky blackness. Branscome had des-
cended the stairs when he heard again
an approaching sound. The miscreant
seemed about to ascend. Raising his
Indian club, Branscome sprang for
ward, striking at the same time blow
that would have killed an OK.
The blow fell-on empty air, and
Branscome fell, face first, into ice-cold
water, which dripped from his single
garment as he rose, suffering and
cursing and called to Mrs. Branseome
to bring light.
What Mrs. Branscon1e had suffered,
living silent in the darkness, expecting
any moment to hear the sound of a
struggle and the cries of the wounded,
NAV be imagined At the call of her
husband she sprang from the bed, lit
the lamp and with trembling limbs
hurried downstairs. Bridget, too, had
been aroused, and in picturesque COM
bination of red flannel and green plaid
shawl followed her mistress.
At the head of the basement stairs
Branscome, shivering and swearing,
with streams of dirty clay-colored
water streaking his features and drip
ping from his robe du NUT, dawDed upon
them.
grieve to relate it, out those two
heartless women laughed long and loud
|
Tended dignity sought the seclusion of a
dry nightgown, and the spare room,
and was seen no more that night.
The heavy rain had so overhushed
the sewer that the water had backed
up" and laid the basement floor four
teen inches under water. The move
ment of this miniature flood had pro-
duced the sounds resembling footsteps,
and the overturned chairs and light
tables, floating on the surface of the
water, humping against each other and
coming in contact with the walls had
been mistaken for the movements of a
| burglar,
Branscome likes to tell a good story,
but he never relates this nights expert
ence, and 1 venture to say that when
next he goes on a still hunt for bur-
glar he will take Mrs. BIS advice and
first strike light.-Lou V. Chaplin, in
