Burglar Nursed The Baby.

Elsie, the infant daughter of Ed
ward Wilson, whose home is at 1887
Sarah street, Philadelphia. enjoys the
distinction of having been nursed by a
burglar.
She is too young now to appreciate
the fact that her small voice forced a
midnight marauder to carry her around
her bedroom.
Alta late hour little Elsie's brother,
Clarence, was awakened by her cries.
When his eyes opened he saw strange
man promenading up and down the
bedroom and grooming to his baby Sit Z
ter, while pal" was ransacking the
drawers of the bureau in the apart
ment. The first burglar had feared
that the baby's cries would alarm the
household.
The boy yelled for his father. The
burglar stood still moment, then he
flung the baby to the floor, and with
his "pal" rushed from the house be-
fore the father could stop him.
After Elsie, who, it was thought
was injured, had been quoted, Mr..
Wilson went in pursuit of the bur-
glars, but could find no trace of them.
He found that he had lost only go
cents, which had been taken from one
of his pockets.

The Suitan's Jewels.

The wonders ofthe Arabian Nights"
live again in three large halls which
compose the great treasury OF the Sui
tan of Turkey, says London Answers.
Priceless jewels CLEAN on every side,
rare and costly curios, coins from all
lands, and furniture studded with
precious stones.
1t is very rarely that any but royal
eyes are permitted to look upon this
magnifcence. At the entrance Of the
first hall stands throne, which was
captured from the Persians; it is
nearly covered with pearls and prec-
ious stones. An enormous emerald
adorns the center of another Jewell
studded throne. A dressing table
studded all over with pearls is among
the furniture.
In this room is also a marvellous
collection of gold and silver cups,
plates and dishes, jeweled dae e aid
knives, suits of armor, and cases con-
tanning hundreds of necklaces,
brooches and rings. In the midst of
all this splendor, ancient and modern,
are very up-to-date dressing bags,
cameras, telescopes ard even case of
razors, all with fine silver mountings,
but seemed rather out of place among
such regal surroundings.
Gold and silver ornaments and
bric-a. brac are some of the contents Of
the second hall, including a collection
of quaint little toys made of precious
metals and stones carefully arranged.

Blasts From RAMS Horn.

That which satiates cannot satisfy.
Sweet fruits grow from bitter seed.
Righteousness will not come by
rote.
His need makes another my neigh
Dor.
Lights are more important than
lamps.
The corrupt man cannot be cOur-
ageous.
A creed may be made casket for
a faith.
He loses all who is unwilling to
lose any.
Heaven does not wait for earth's
applause.
No man can run away from his own
heart.
Religion is not in US unless it goes
out from US.
Preparation is the best prayer to
Providence.
Peace i, he poise of the souls per-
feet activities.
Every blessing received creates an
obligation.
To cultivate callous heart will not
insure calm.
1t takes a small breeze to raise a
storm in puddle.
The waves are always stilled where
the Master walks.
Clutches become a curse when we
might have wings.
If christianity does not grow out, 1t
cannot be put on.
There is no virtue in the bottle with
out the medicine.
The church fair does not help the
fair name Of the church.
Some men tempt the devil more than
the devil tempts them.
The good shepherd thinks more OF
his flock than of his feeces.

Mrs. W. G. Smoke, wife of Corporal
Smoke, of the Ninth Artillery band,
stationed at Fort Riley, Kan, has
died at her home of burns received as
the result ola joke perpetrated by her
husband. Mrs. Smoke had hidden IN
an outbuilding and in spirit Of fun
locked her husband out. Smoke
poured some gasoline on the stone
steps and lit it, intending to brighten
her. The flames were drawn in under
the door and enveloped Mrs. Smoke,
who died several hours later in ter
rible agony. She was conscious to
the last and exonerated her husband,
insisting that his act was intended as
a joke.

Talked Of Murder in His Sleep.

While he was awake Henry Bragg
was On his guard. But as he slept he
framed the words that led to his being
accused of murder. Policemen are
coming from Cairo, H., to press
against him the charge of having killed
George Hartnett, mate Of river
steamboat.
1t was while Bragg was locked up
in Chicago on another charge that he
slept and uttered the self-accusing
words. As he lay in his cell at night
Detectives Nolan and Shea happened
to pass. The air of the cell room was
still. Suddenly they heard a shrek
of terror. 1t came from Braggs cell.
After it came broken, frightened SEN
fences, in which the name "Hartnett
and the word "Murder" were con-
stantly heard.
They peered through the grated
door and Bragg was sitting up in bed,
his arms shielding his face. He was
crying out that he had killed man.
The detectives stole away, and at
once the machinery of the police de-
partment was set in motion. Every
city where a murder had been COM
mitted of late was wired to and word
came that Bragg had killed George
Hartnett in Cairo.
