been acquainted years before The visit passed on
pleasantly, but its close the host calamity. but
the less to her surprise and chagrtn. kissed

elderly man. but nevertheless 1t was liberty.
and she was not asronished TO hear her husband
calculate why. 1 never heard Of such Cheek

think of him. After two three remarks of a
similar tenor. in which the note of anger was

what does IL really matter? What does kiss

the county Jail. and had recovered
damages from the county. 1 reminded by IL OF
legend that exists In Bedford. in State, of the
escape of burglar from the jail there The jaier,
going to look for him morning. found his
cell empty. The county was searched over. but no
trace of the fugitive could be found. Some weeks
afterward, however. the jailer, happening to go
into the loft Of the jail. thought he heard a noise
the roof. Quietly raising the scuttle, he looked
carefully around From behind the cupOla project
ed mans foot. The jailer seized IL and pulled
hard, and out came his missing burglar; 1t seems
that that worthy, on breaking out OF his cell nag
proceeded further toward liberty than the roof,
rightly arguing that in about the Jail itself was
the last place they would think of looking for him.
There he had quietly remained throughout all the
weeks during which the officers OF the law had
secured the surrounding country in search or him.
He had a rope, by which. after nightfall, he used
to descend to the ground and obtain provender. he
cooked his meals in a chatting dish and stayed on
the roof except when II stormed- Then he used TO
descend into the loft below, the roar of the storm
concealing all noise he himself made An accident
only revealed his whereabouts. He had IL IN for
the tailer. and intended robbng his strong box be-
fore he made his final escape. He had taken an
impression of the lock of the box, and had lived
on the roof while he fashioned the key He had
intended using II that very night, but you know

about Is knots. Between 10 a. m. and noon yester-
day the guns were tested. The forward and after

DAVID BELAsCo's THEATRE

Vague reports have divided themselves from the
mists now and then and stood palpably out TO the
effect that David Belasco. a man not unknown
locally as a dramatic author and stage manager
was to have theatre in town for the production
of his own plays and such other plays as he might
find convenient from time to time. 1t was an
nounced yesterday that a site had been selected
Professionally at least for this theatre. The site
is on the north side OF Forty-sxth-st. a little way
west or Broadway. and is lot about 100 by 40
feet in size. with another lot connecting it with
Broadway, that there can be a Broadway
entrance TO the theatre. Mr.. Belasco is said TO
have options these lots. The theatre If built
here will thus be diagonally Longacre Square
from the New-YOrk and Criterion theatres.
