ROBBERS IN THE HOUSE

Different Ways of Dealing With Them
Recommended From Experience.
II had a most narrowing adventure the
other night" said young Washington matron
to writer for The STAR. my husband was
away and at about 8 o clock in the morning |
was walked up by the loud ringing Of the
burglar alarm in my bed room. or course l
was verv much frightened, but went to the
drawer in which the family pistol is kept ready
loaded for an emergency, which one never ex-
poets to occur. The two children had with
me- and they were both fast asleep in their
little cribs, undisturbed by the racket. had
turned up the light. and, assuming a desperate
courage which l feared might suddenly evanesce,
l threw open the door into the entry. Then /
stood on the threshold. revolver in hand, and
awaited developments.
Before taking this bold step, however. I
rang the electric bells for the servants, hoping
that they might be aroused. For two or three
minutes there was no further sound, and then
heard step coming up the stairs from be-
low. Instead Of running back, slamming the
door and screaming out Of the window for
help as believe most women would have done
in my place, / stood my ground and held my
pistol pointed toward the head Of the stair
way. The step came slowly up and at length
shadowy figure emerged upon the landing.
just as was on the point of firing saw that
IL WAS Ionale inquire.
"'Please. a'am, don't shoot = cried voice,
which, to my infinite relief, recognized Is
that Of the cook.
II lowered my pistol. To be more accurate,
dropped it am surprised that it did not
explode.
Maria, what on earth have you been
about? asked, with some indignation.
"Her explanation WAS that. mistaking the
time, she had got up two hours in advance of
her usual hour. Going down stairs to light the
fire she had set off the burglar alarm.
"1 heard your bell, ma'am,' she added, and
so walked up to find out what you wanted
Nevertheless, though it was not real bur-
glar. think that behaved with extraordinary
courage and presence Of mind. The only
woman I ever knew of who did better on such
an occasion was friend Of mine in Phila-
delphia. Hearing robbers moving about the
house below, she quietly dragged her basket Of
silver, which she kept in her bed room at
night to the well Of the stairway and upset it.
The spoons and forks and precious vessels Of
all sorts fell with tremendous crash to the
floor OF the lower hall and frightened the
burglars SO badly that they ran away leaving
the booty they had already collected behind
them.
THAT reminds me Of lady Of my acquaint-
ance to whom a trained nurse had been recon-
mended. She asked friend of hers, who had
employed the same woman, if the latter was
safe person to leave in charge Of the house for
brief period.
ENTIRELY So replied the friend, isonly
you will make sure first to lock up very care
fully the silver, the jewelry and the wine
Otherwise she win probably got away with

A Black Cat In a Courtroom.

n BLACK Cat IN . Courtroom.
Toward the close of the trial of NJ. f.
Kerr, of Crawfordsville, Ind, for forgery,
an incident occurred which, while anus
ing, demonstrated that the average
American Still believes in the efficacy of
"signs.n During lull IN the proceed
ings strange black cat, with fierce,
glaring eyes, appeared in the doorway,
causing solemn silence to fall over the
assembly. It paused, looked about, and
slowly swishing its tail to and fro ad-
vancedS toward the space between the
prisoner and the jury's box. The ST.
lence became oppressive, and the judge,
lawyers, jurors and prisoner craned their
necks and with open mouths gazed at

would the apparition approach the
prisoner to be touched?" IF so the man
was innocent and would be freed.
After standing as If transfxed for sec
onds it approached the prisoner, who
with superhuman effort stretched
forth his hand and touched the glossy
fur. Immediately the cat gave joyous
"meow" and disappeared. All were con-
WINGED that Kerr would go free. He was
acquitted. ed.-Cincinnat Enquirer.

A Nev Itfeboat.

A new kind of lifeboat has been con.
gtyucted to the order of the Boulogne
Humane society on model designed by
one of its members. The construction
of the new boat is-simple and econom-
ical, and could be adapted to any sea-
going rowing boat The invention con-
sists in the introduction of air tight cop
per chambers, broad at the gunwale
and diminishing at the bilge, placed on
the outside of the boat, where they are
equally distributed, so as not to interfere
with the sweep Of the oars. The tops of
the chambers shelve down outward,
forming smooth gunwale, ten inches
broad amidships and tapering away fore
and aft
These compartments are protected
from injury by casing forming double
bulwarks, inasmuch as the shape Of the
hull preserves perfectly its boatlike ap-
pearances. It means really little
more beam and consequently more sta
bility. The proposed new feature does
not at all affect the speed of the vessel.
In addition to these compartments cham
bers can be fitted fore and aft. It has
been usual to place the air or cork lined
chambers inside ifeboats, especially on
board of ships ifeboats.
The outward application Of these air
cases gives greater solidity to the boats
side in the event of being STAYED in, and
win tend to prevent accidents such as
happen through people bringing their
weight to bear on one side of boat when
pulling person out Of the water. a
boat fitted as described has been tested
with the combined weight of six persons
assembled on one side
All this weight failed to oyerturn the
boat, the water tight compartments
brought into contact with the water
resulting only in giving the boat par.
tial list and SO far proving its resisting
power and buoyancy. The new boat is
1719 feet long, is built of elm and cosi

Real Babes I'm the wood.

The two pretty little children of David
Wismer, of Quakertown, figured in the
role of the "Babes in the Wood" a few
days ago, but were rescued before the
birds had occasion to cover them up
with leaves. They suddenly took it in
their heads, while playing in the street,
to make pilgrimage, and set out with
no further prelminaries than the prince
IN the fairy tales. They came at last to
the road at Perkasie, several miles
away, but still were unweary, and kept
on their journey over the hills. Wonder
ing farmers gaped at them as they
passed.
The little ones soon struck the woods
and wandered around among the trees
until dusk deepened into evening, when
they composed themselves complacently
for slumber beneath the overhanging
branches. Meanwhile the frightened
father had spread the alarm and was
fast on their heels. He traced his babes
to the woods, where he awoke them,
and took them home with him hale
frozen. Philadelphia Record.

A Curious Clock.

A novel clock is now being exhibited
by the Watchmakers' union in London.
1t is of wood, beautifully carved and
stands six feet in height. The case is a
perfect fort in miniature, and instead of
a bell and striking hammer the hours
are announced by a bugler, who emerges
from door at one side of the fort and
blows the call to assemble and march.
Almost instantly doors open on ali
sides. A regiment of automatic sol
diers, six abreast, march out, wheel to
the left, stop few seconds to mark
time." and then march through another
part Of the fortress to the barracks
These marches and countermarches oc-
cur each hour. If they come out to an
nounce the hour of o'clock, one soldier
fires his tiny gun. At o'clock two SOL
diers fire their pieces, increasing with
the hour until the twelve leaders fire
their gums, the rear ranks bowling their
heads and pointing with their bayonets
toward the dial Of the clock. Chicago

The fifth attempt to elect seven repre-
sentatives to the Rhode Island state
legislature, who failed of election at
previous trials, was held Saturday and
resulted in choice of six. All are

The Utah democratic territorial con-
vention last Saturday elected delegates

Miss Jessie Keene, daughter of James
r. Keene, was married on Saturday to
Talbot j. Taylor, of Baltimore, in New
York. The bridegroom is a well-to-do
Baltimore man. The wedding was a
modest one, and there were no brides
maids. A number of well-known society
people were present.
A deal was closed at Sault Ste Marie
Saturday, by whichl the Perry lumber
company obtains possession of nineteen
square miles of pine, spruce and cedar
lands on the Canadian Indian reserva-
ton, forty miles north of the 500. The
deal involves millions, and will result in
logging operations on a vast scale.
According to Saturdays primary cleo
tions, Kentucky will probably send an
uninstructed delegation to the national
convention. The result is believed to be
due to the position taken by Henry
Watterson in regard to Cleveland. The
instructed counties are about evenly
divided between Carlisle and Cleveland.
Thirty out of the fifty-nine counties go
far reported have Endorsed Watterson's
suggestion.
