SCARED MOTHER SUPERIoR.-When
the Mother Superior of the Episcopal
Sisters Home. in New York, went to
bed Friday night, she hoped for good
and refreshing nights sleep. By
eleven o'clock the Mother Superior was
in deep sleep. Her sleep was so deep
and regular that when the door of the
room was quietly opened and tall
dark form entered stealthily and closed
the door behind him she had no know
ledge of the fact. Only a nervous
movement in her sleep showed that her
senses had been touched and her brain
aroused.
The burglar stood still beside the
window. Then he crossed the floor on
tiptoe. His boots were off, and his
stockinged feet made no noise. He ap-
preached the bureau, by which lay a
heap of Mother Superior's clothing. He
stretched out his hands, and was about
to grab. when, suddenly, movement
in the bed scared him.
The occupant was restless. The burg
lar hesitated moment, and then dived
under the bed. He was almost scared
to death. The noise he made getting
under the bed partially awoke the
Mother Superior. As the noise had
ceased then, the Mother Superior sank
aeain into sleep.
The next thing she knew was at two o'clock,
when she awoke again, and heard awful
sounds proceeding from under the bed. Some
one was snoring. 1t was man, and he was
under the bed. She sprang out of bed and
gave an alarm.
Manager James J.. Kelly. of the American
District Telegraph Company's burglar alarm,
was notified, and an officer was sent up. The
man was pulled from under the bed where
he had slept peacefully the whole time, and
Policeman Reid locked him up. He gave his
name as John Hackman. He said he was an
upholsterer, and added that he was drunk,
and did not know what he was doing. There
were two silver knives in his pockets and his
boots had been left in the hallway. He had
made and entrance through one of the win
dows down stairs.
When the case was called Saturday morn
ing Justice Hogan called for the complainant.
"There is none," said Policeman Reid.
''The Mother Superior refuses TO make COM
plaintn
James ]. Kelly was not in court, either.
Hickman was held, nevertheless, to await
further examination. The police refused to
give the name of the Mother Superior.
There are about fifty young girls and sew
eral sisters in the home under the care OF the
Mother Superior.

THE FUSS the northern republicans
are making about the manifestation OF
President Cleveland's favorable dispo-
sition toward doing simple justice to
the friendly Hawaiian nation, and the
urgency with which they press the con-
sideration of their opposition to such
Justice upon Congress, naturally sug-
gest the idea that they are endeavor-
Ing to make the Hawaiian affair blind
behind which to fight the new tariff
bill, by consuming time that should be
devoted to that bill, and thereby delay
ing the passage thereof. This sugges-
ton should not be lost sight of by the
friends of tarinreform. They shouldper-
init nothing to come between them and
the object for the accomplishment OF
which they were elected-the reduc-
ton of the cost of living,
