VIII Probably Resign from the
United States Senate.
At Least So Says The New
York Mail and Express.

1t 10 His Ambition to Remain the Leader
of the New York Democracy, Something
He Can Better Do At Home Practicing
Law Than in washington-Now, Wonder
Who win BE His successor7
NEW YORK, Nov. 25.-The Mail and
Express in long ar ticle says in brief:
''There is strong probability that
David B. Hill will not return to his seat
in the United States senate. II the de-
cision rested wholly with Mr.. Hill there
is no doubt that he would resign shortly
after the session Of the legislature Is be-
gun in January.
"There are many reasons for the &C
ton now credited to the junior senator
from New York. 1t is very well known
to many that it was not the desire of
Mr.. Hill to go to the United States SEN
ate as successor to the Hon. William
Maxwell Evarts. The legislature had
such close Democratic majority at the
time of the senatorial election that
there was every probability the senator
ship would go to the highest bidder
among the candidates, unless Hill, who
was then governor, would step in and
take the place, 1t was partly to avoid
scandal and partly to unite all the mem
bers of the legislature that Hill became
the candidate.
another particular reason, no doubt,
rests largely in the fact that Mr.. Hills
aim in life is that of politics and 1t is
his ambition to remain as the leader Of
the New York Democracy, something
he can best do by remaining Altogether
in the state and pursuing the practice of
law"

NEW YORK, Nov. 2S.-William G.
Ford, Jr., Is a very plucky man, and hii
young and pretty wife is as cool and

greet and sorrow to Burglar John Buck
Icy, for the pluck and GOODNESS Of the
Ford's were exercised to the burglars
great discomfort, and landed him, sorely
wounded in the New Utrecht town
Jail.
Mr.. Ford. who lie . civil engineer
lives in handsome house at Benson

ago he was awakened by some one
walking in the sitting room adjoining
the second-foor bedroom, where he
slept. Thinking it might be one Of the

voice trying to initiate woman's.
When Mr.. Ford went to the door,
carrying 32-caliber pistol, he was con.
fronted by man, also carrying pistol,
who turned from his occupation OF
rifiing bureau drawer, rushed out in
the dark hall, and down the stairs. Mr..
Ford followed and fired as he ran. Fol.
lowing close behind, Mr.. Ford fired
again, and the fash from the pistol set
fire to the portieres.
Mrs. Ford held the lamp while her
husband covered the burglar with his
pistol.
Finding himself confronted by cool
woman holding lamp for the better
ment of her husbands aim, and tn at
husband prepared to take advantage OF
his improved position, the burglar
dropped his pistol and threw up his
hands.
Then be sank to the floor. Mrs. Ford
assisted her husband to take the burglar
upstairs. All four of Mr.. Fords shots
had taken effect. The burglar was
wounded in the left hand, in the calf of
his right leg, one bullet had grazed his
abdomen and one was lodged in his hip.
None of the injuries are dangerous.
His name he gave as John Buckley.
He said he is aprinter, and lives with his
father, tailor, at 633 East Twelfth
street, New York. He is nineteen years
old. A companion, named John Rear
don, O professional crook, had induced
him to go on the expedition.
Buckley had climbed from Reardon's
shoulder through a kitchen window into
the Ford house. Both took off their
shoes and left them outside the door.
Reardon made his escape when the
shooting started, and took with him q
few silver knives and Buckley's shoes.
Mrs. Ford gave Buckley pair of shoes
to go to Jail in.
The dwelling of Mrs. Lucky. in Ben
sonhurst, was burglarized on Saturday
night, and some clothing and $40 in
money taken. The local police think
both jobs were done by the same men.
Buckley Is smooth-faced, dark
haired, good-looking young man. He
feels very badly about his companion
having stolen his shoes, while he Buck
ley was being shot full of bullets by
Mr.. Ford. He is very grateful to Mrs
Ford for the gift of pair of her hus-
bands slippers.

silken sash hid its two big eyes as the
neck was barred beneath the thick grow

ME and Alice Evans, of BE aver Brook,
aged respectively fifteen, seventeen and
twenty, had an exciting experience q
night or two ago with burglar. They
were alone in the house, their father
having been called away. To dispel
each others fears the three decided upon
occupying the same room. After a care
full inspection of the doors and rooms
the three girls retired. Nothing oo-
Cured to disturb the placidity of their
slumbers until along towards morning.
1t was about o'clock when Jennie, the
youngest, thought she heard a noise in
the lower room. She listened moment
and became convinced.
She awoke Lottie and Alice The
wise became more distinct, and was ev
identity near the top of the stairs. All
teree jumped to the floor. They became
terribly alarmed, but did not cry out. A
hurried council was held and it was de-
cided to turn out the lights and remain
perfectly quiet. The scheme did not
work, however. The noise without ap-
preached the door, and the next moment
a hand was on the knob. Jennie could
control herself no longer. She rushed
for the door. AT the same moment it
was forced open and strange man con-
fronted her.
A bright moon was shining through
the window and the williams form could
be plainly outlined. One of the girls
recognized him as an Hungarian named
Bousch, who lived on the outskirts Of
the village. The man was about to
grasp Jennie when the other two rushed
from their hiding places. He was taken
by surprise and reiterated toward the
stairs. In doing so he tripped and fell
headlong to the bottom. The girls were
now nerved to desperation, and follow
ing him pinioned him in the corner and
belabored him numerically.
A succession of screams attracted the
attention Of neighbors, and William
Lloyd, followed by a number Of others
fastened to the rescue. Many of the
neighbors favored beating the man to
death. and it might have resulted so but
for the timely arrival of Constable Early.
He succeeded In taking the man from
the angry citizens. The man fell ex-
hausted when he reached his boarding
house, and his condition Wednesday
