zone of my most painful experiences"
Sald nc Eettrei burglar, according 10 the
New York sun, y had IN a town in
Western Pennsylvania. In the course Of
my customary preliminary walk 7 had
hNed my eye upon sman-but trim-look-
ing Queen Anne cottage which stood upon
a little bit Of knoll IN quite a good-sized
lot, with grass plot all around it. The
cellar windows were good and high and
easy, and | selected one at the rear of the
house 50 as to be as far as POSSIBLE secure
from observation, though that seemed on
such night an almost unnecessary pre-
caution. It was one of the darkest nights
ever knew and nobody could have seen
you ten Ieet OFT; but then there was the
oanger Of being heard, and so IL was sen
SlDles OF course, to so in at a rear win
dow. 1t Is always foolish to take any I'M
necessary risk.
We'll / found I couldn't unfasten this
window from the outside, SO ] waited for
the next thunder Clap-there was a thun-
ger storm coming up, that's what made
II 50 dark-and then broke hole in the
glass and reached in for the catch. The in
slant my hand sot through TIA hCle II vas
grabbed by dog that I knew would hold
on till he died. There could be no possible
doubt about that; the vigor and dash
and power OF the grip and the absolutely
H Ii,l ana rigid ho-d were unmlstakaDle.
Win the next flash of lightning / saw
him, white bun dog, standing ou the
head of a barrel under the window with
my hand in his mouth. He'd been roam
ing around that eel ar, on the alert and
he'd heard me from the start he was on
the barrel, no doubt when | was working
dI tllGl WINDOW Oh the ONLSlGGs ana al ne
wanted was to have me get in.
1T was bad to have to do it, but had
to. l couldn't pull away from him any
more than / could have pulled my hand
out from under pile driver. SO reached
around as we'll as ] could with my left
hand and got my gun, and when the next
flash of lightning came I fired. / knew |
must have hit him, too but not much
more than that, for he didn't let 90. He
just shut his teeth together tighter
though l wouldn't have thought he could
do that but he did-till / thought the
teeth must have come together though
my hand. 1t makes me vince, now, Just
to think of it. When the next flash came
! saw him again. There was blood trick
ling down the side of his head from
where I'd hit him, but his teeth were set
in a hold that | knew ] couldn't have
broken with a jimmy, There are times
when circumstances are agin a man, and
this was one of EN-.
II could hear EN- in the house already.
They'd heard the pistol as 1 knew they
would, ana they were coming. The door
at the head of the cellar stairs opened
and two young men with a light came tum-
bling down. Well, one of them came out
for me, and | was easy, dead easy; he tied
me up without any more trouble than if
I'd been a bundle of rags. and the man in
side got the dog off somehow, / don't
know how. Then they took me into the
house ana sent for a doctor, and ! needed
one; and then they sent me to a hospital
TO stay until l was tried. He cost me
three years and six months, that dog"
