HOW TO MANAGE A BURGLAR.
Young W oman Who Has Done So Gives
IDEAS on the Subject, -...4--.


Miss Lena Burns knows how to manage a
burglar. With revolver held against her
head Miss Burns had sufficient courage to
resist a burglar who entered her room at
night, and who has since been arrested for
his pains. '-'-. --s-.-.
The young woman was asked by reporter
to give few general instructions on the
treatment of burglars to women readers.
Tersely put, this is her advice:
Think quickly.
Never lose your presence Of mind.
Use all the weapons nature has kindly
given you.
Hold your breath when you are being ehIo-
reformed.
Don't let little thing like being gagged
divert your mind.
If you can't scream throw things at the
window to attract attention.
Remember that while you may not be as
strong as he is, ten to one you are much
brighter.

Christmas Church News.

The Church News has donned a verv
gay holiday attire. The Christmas number
is a fine illustration of what an energetic
newspaper can do. The title page is a
beautiful illustration of a child examining
in the window with a most delighted
couiftenance. Sixteen pages of good health-
full holiday reading and all the late Catholic
news is the best feature or this remarkably
fine Christmas edition.

pie to engage more extensively in
their culture, and next year a very

last winter Arizona oranges were
kept in boxes four months without

The Manchester Guardian's Article

Manchester, July 3.-The Guardian in it's commercial article says: In some cases business has been moderate and the tone steady, but the volume of trans actions has been generally dsappolnt- ing. There has been little fresh inquiry and in several districts q good percent age of the looms are stopped The slack ness f the demand from India was partly due to the expected change in the government. which may lead a repeal of the import duties on cotton. There has been an occasional increase in the China demand, and transactions for various kinds of the better grades of shirtings have been booked There has also been a moderate business with Japan in staples and finishing goods, and a moderate trade also with the minor eastern and nearer outlets. The position of the Burnly manufacturers is unsettled by the strike of the twisters.
 Yarns have been quiet. Spnners have frequently advanced their quotations, thereby checking the volume of business.

THE NEW "PR0BS. :"
Something of Professor Moore, Who May Be Chief of the Weather Bureau-Hs
 Remarkable Record.

Washington, July 3-Prof w A Moore of Chicago. who has been recom- mended by Secretary Morton as the new chief of the weather bureau, is regarded as one of the best forecasters in the ser vice. and has a reputation for accuracy second to none in the department. He first came to the notice of Secretary Morton about a year ago, when the sec retary began a thorough investigation of the work being done by the weather bureau, with the end in view of materi- ally improving the service and causing it to issue practical information for the farmer. merchant and sailor, and every other line of business in which the con- dition of the weather and the approach of storms had anything to do.
 Circulars were issued to the better class of forecasters, asking for. essays on the practical forecasting of the weather bu- reau. About thirty of the men replied These essays were numbered. but their authors were unknown. and were turned over to a board consisting of Chief Har- rington. Professor Mendenhall and Major Dunwoody: This board selected the best of he essays, less than ten, and the writers were ordered to Washington to make reports.
 This was done for month, and Moore receiving the highest percentage, almost 100, was given the position of professor of meteorology at a salary of $2500. He was, prior to this. forecaster at Mil waukee. but after his promotion was transferred ito Chicago. During last win ter he made a wonderful record consid- erlng the character of the weather. There were numerous cold waves during that season. some of them of unusual severity, sand 1t was his marvellous accuracy in predicting their coming that again att tracted the attention of Secretary MoT- or.
 Che thing that pleased the secretary was Moores fashion Of making state ments about which there could be no doubt. He avoided all ambiguous predic- tions and rislxed a positive statement or frankly said in his report that it was im5 possible to accurately judge the forth coming conditions, following this with the best judgment he could command. He rarely missed the mark and his fore casts were the best made in that very trying kind of weather.
 In politics MT. Moore is said to be a re- publican He is a man about 40 years of age and has grown up in the service.
