HIS WIFE WAS THE BURGLAR.

David Herr was awakened by an I'm
usual sound early the other morning,
and, looking out in the dim light, saw
a figure bending over the table. The
noise he made alarmed the intruder,
who at once extinguished the lamp.
Herr thought of burglars and when
the baby began to cry jumped from
his bed and grappled with the stran-
ger. They struggled up and down the
room exchanging blows, but neither
speaking until they fell together on the
baby's cot Then each cried: Don't
hurt the baby"
Herr recognized the voice, and hold
ing his painting adversary with one
hand, scrambled to the bureau and lit
match. The supposed burglar was
his wife, who had separated from him
six weeks ago. She had climbed up
the fire escape and crept into the room
through the window, intending to take
away her child.
Herr threatened If she repeated her
visit he would have her arrested as a
burglar and told her to go away. She
had been badly used up in the strug-
gle Both her eyes were blackened
and swollen, and her right arm was
temporarily useless. She will now try
to secure her child through the courts.

The examination of the twenty or
thirty men in a semicircle at the Jail
last midnight by the colored man
Jackson was
DRAMATIC IN THE EXTREME.
Walling stood near one extremity of
the arch. The negro Jackson began
his inspection at Walling's end of the
line, He examined every one. man by
man, until he got to the end of the
line. Then he turned, walked briskly
back and halted in front of WaAinS.
All this time he had not spoken a
word. Viewing Walling all around,
like man examining horse he was
about to buy, he stepped in front of
him and said: ''That is the man that
sat on the seat with me"
Jackson, the other culpr1t' was

TALLY as to the sound of his voice.
The negro's extreme caution gives
force to his evidence. He said: u
don't want to make any mistake and
then he took his time in making the
examination.

talked Hippantly to his visitors. 10

him If he found surrey in my peck

He tries to ridicule the multitude Of
clues that are followed.
Walling is more sullen and reticent.

At time when he could not be in

native language, he was yet filed with
the amb ton to become an author. Such
an ambition might seem strange enough
in the child of a cobbler of Odense,
whom his mother never obliged to attend
school regularly, who spent his childhood

attempt to acquire what would be called

way as an actor without training. inter-

be attributed to the kindly and patri-

4 CLEAR NOTE.

LONDON, Feb. 1.-THE Paris CORE
spondent of the Times telegraphs as
follows to that paper:
The cabinet has sounded a clear
note. If 1t succeeds it is nothing more
or less than a coup d'etat; If it fails
it is an act of violence to no good cd.
The setting aside of the vote of the
senate virtually upsets the constitu-
ton. IT the senate stands firm there
are only two alternatives-the resigna-
ton Of the ministers or the expulsion
OF the senate by a mob. The latter
would mean the suspending of the con
stitution by a revolutionary conven-
ton.
The chamber of deputies, which as
sembles on Thursday, after a cabinet
council on Tuesday may. however, re-
coll from a second vote, which might
prove disastrous
The situation is the most delicate we
have seen in twenty-five years.
