~rHIEF~ PROVED An ALInI.
Adroitly Turned Tables on Surprised
Woman and Saved His Dignity.

-...A Inability to identlly an as
sailant was curiously proved recently
says the New York World, when vic
tim OF circumstances that were en-
barrassing, not to say, discriminating
contrived by remarkable presence OF
mind and no less wonderful agility to
might have been the deadly conse'
quences Of an innocent adventure.
1t was in Harlem apartment
house. The young man occupies an
apartment on one of the upper floors.
While gazing from his window the
idea flashed through his brain that in
case of fire there might be some diff
ficulty in reaching the ground. He
concluded that over the roof would be
the only feasible means, and promptly
started to explore. Buttoning his coat
and pulling his hat down over his
eyes, to avoid the glare, he stepped
out on the fire escape and began to
mount.
In passing window a story or two
above he was paraiyzed to behold a
woman in deshabille standing in the
window.
She was no less startled than he.
Shouting Thieves! Murder! Police!
FIRE." she dashed into the hall. rang
every bell within reach and put the
house in an uproar.
The discounted gentleman on the
fire escape almost fell down the mar
row iron ladder into his own apart
ment. threw off his hat and coat,
rushed into the corridor and hastened
upstairs, three at time, to help the
screaming lady above.
He was one of the first on the
scene; heard her fearful story of the
burglar who had been about to climb
In her window. and breathing dire
threatenings made the most thorough
and vain-search for that bold, bad
man.
She thought him so sympathetic.
The alibi was complete.

Small Boys Question Left Mother
Small Chance of Escape. .
Robert Strange, Bishop Coadjutor
OF East Carolina, puts great faith in
the efficacy of clerical visits. He
thinks that call may often do more
good than sermon. He urges strong
ly upon young clergymen the import
ance of frequent visits to the peoples
homes.
Sometimes" said Bishop Strange
recently, "a clergyman's visit is un-
welcome. That, though, should not
discourage him. Where he is most
unwelcone. there, oftentimes, he is
most needed. So ne should take in
Good part every slight, every rebuff" !"
Bishop Strange smiled.
"a friend of NINE" he said, "a
young vicar Of Hickory, called one
day at a poor little house whose oc-
cupants never came to church.
"A small boy opened the door.
Is you mother in, my lad?' said
the vicar.
No said the boy. No. sir. oshe
airt In
What time will she be back?' the
vicar asked.
"The boy went to the foot Of the
stairs.
Ma he bawled up, what time
Will you be bGck?'"

China. overe..Ima.ed Population

W. w. Rockhill. the newly appoint.
ed American minister to China and
well.known eastern traveller and
author. says that the present popula.
tion Of China. instead OF being, as II is
usually given, nearly 450,O00.OO0, is
probably not much over $50 1000 900.
The census Of 1741. which Mr. Rock.
hill considers more Trustworthy than
any other. shows 14S.000.000. Con.
sidering the numerous devastating
famines and wars Of the succeeding
$50 years, the natural annual increase
would be small. Far from being over.
populated. many portions Of China
could support a greatly increased
population.

eenator Hoar Obliged His Colleagues
From Ohio

FROM Ohfo.
The late Senator Hoar was ever
ready and willing to indulge In q bit
of repartee with his colleagues wheth-
er they were of his political faith or
not.
One day several retorts courteous
passed between Mr.. Hoar and Senator
Foraker, who was speaking on the
Panama question.
Now, Senator Foraker dislikes moth
ing SO much as to be interrupted in
the course of his remarks. On this
occasion 1t was plainly to be seen
that he was not little impatient at
the incessant interjections, soto voce
offered by the Massachusetts, senator
who had been contending that the
Ohioan had misrepresented his-Sena-
tor Hoar's-position on the subject
of the canal
Several long colloquies had ensued
between the two senators, when Mr..
Foraker. with some feeling, ex-
claimed:
Really. wish that, when the Sen
ator from Massachusetts, is willing
that l shall resume, after each of
these Interruptions, he will be so kind
on each occasion as to tell me where
l was"
I'm this case. l will gladly do So"
rejoined Mr.. Hoar, beaming at the
opportunity afforded to "get back" at
his colleagues from Ohio; "the gem
,.tleman was making a misstatement
of my views!"
Mr.. Foraker was. for a moment
much taken back, especially as roar
of laughter at the sally came from
the senate.-Harper's Weekly.
