But There Was an Alarm Before Hc Dis-
coyarCd What Was Loaded.


A sedate looking young man strolled In
an abstracted way into Dcimonico's the
other evening. He carried under his left
arm little square package done up In
light wrapping paper and tied with pink
sJring.~ He was apparently man OF ne
thodical habits The hotel detective men
tally noted this for future reference Me-
thodical men are sometimes as dangerous
as those who work without a purpose or
a plan" There WAS nothing about the
aspect of the young man that might lead
the casual observer to suspect him Of being
AL anarchist His hair was OF ordinaSy
length, and his linen was faultless 1t Is
on record, however, that there have been
anarchists who have defied the traditions
of their kind and have become addicted to
the bath and fine apparel
The young man set his package down
on the table with u carefulness that was
remarked by the waiter who took his or
der and did not recognize him as a steady
customer After wiping his eyeglasses and
adjusting them the young man leaned
lack In his chair and scanned the bill of
fare. He startled the waiter by remarking:
II think / will take u plate of beef
and'-
Then he realized where he was and call
ed for bottle and bird Then some
thing happened that threw the restaurant
into turmoil. The young man got up as
II he had sat on tack and examined the
seat of his chair. There was a muffied
clatter that sounded to the walters like the
electrical buzz of an internal machine.
They regarded the movements of the young
man as somewhat suspicious. The young
man himself seemed to be In almost as
much of state of mind as the walters He
could not imagine where the whir-r-r-r-f
came from. He peered under the table
after inspecting his chair. Forty persons
In the restaurant had concentrated a
startled gaze upon him. He was unaffect
ed by their scrutiny, but was much puzzled
by the muffled whir-r-r-rr.
Sixteen walters gathered around him,
looking pale and apprehensiye. The hotel
detective stalked toward the young man,
trying his best to look as If he were not
afraid. The stolid expression Of the young
man changed to one of joyful relief. He
picked up the pink corded package, and
the sound that came from it convinced
even the hotel detective that the young
man had bought an alarm clock. All tho
walters smiled and returned in hurry to
their respective places. The young man
did not know that the alarm clock was
loaded.-New York Sun.

A lady who has had considerable resi-
dence In the Sandwich Islands and who
came to know Mrs. Dominis well formed
quite different opinion of her from that
gained by the newspaper presentation of
her personality. According to this observ-
er, the ,ex-queen was sensible and high
minded, kcenly interested in the welfare
of the islanders, notably in any project for
the improve 'ent of child lifo in Hawaii,
and was mos friendly and companionable.

by its recipient, Is of heavy cardboard,

In gMndma's room, one rainy day,
Sweet Madge and Ethel, Blanche and
Mae
Talked of the waltz and redowa
In laughing chatter, all.
And grandma listened sitting straight
In high backed chair, beside the crate,
Her cheeks abloom with roses late,
AS they gossiped Of the ball
But grandma'd been a lassie, too,
And in her eyes of faded blue
The smold'ring fire famed anew
AS she heard their voices bright.
Then back her thoughts across the
space
Like homing doves, Embossed did race
To reach mem 'ry-haliowed place,
All aglow with candle-light!
She sees a barn with rafters bare;
High, bronze-hued pyramids, and
there
A lad with silky, yellow hair.
Like the ripe and tasseled corn.
She sees a double waving line
OF lads and lassies, brave and fine,
Move back and forth in lively time
To the fiddle and the horn
Her heart takes up the music's beat;
She hears the trample of their feet,
AS now they part, and now they meet,
With curt'sy staid and low
Dark eyes look straight into her own,
AS two and two advance alone,
A youth and maid; she hears tone,
And her cheeks begin TO glow.
The dance is done; the tasks begin;
The lantern light is pale and dim;
She gives a sde-long glance at him
AS he, bashful, fingers near.
The rustling husks away they strip.
A laugh and song on each young lip,
And something else?-she gives the
slip
He has found the scarlet ear!
The lights grow pale, the music dies
Before her dim and faded eyes
The vision of her girlhood flies,
AS the day melts into dusk.
The girls steal out and leave her there
In her od-fashioned, high back chair.
But, smiling still, she huns the air
OF ancient Money Musk.
