noise made by a burglar. and think

sick wife was in the room sat up and
inquired what was wrong.

Waitneight asked the intruder IL ne

and that he had entered a house
in which death had Just recently oc-
Cured.

CUT OFF THEIR EARS.
Act Of RObber Struck Terror to The
Hearts Of Women.

The latest exploit of the hooligans
OF Marseiiles has struck terror into
the hearts of every woman In that
city. A few nights ago a woman on
her way home was suddenly ep-
preached on the DUAL du Vieux Port
by a stranger and asked to hand
over her gold earrings. She started
back In alarm, and a minute later
screamed and fell fainting to the
pavement. When she was picked
up by policeman Ii was found that
the lobe In her left ear had been cut
Off, and the earrings with ii.
A lady wearing pair of pearl ear
rings was accosted by a well dressed
man in a quiet street and asked to
give up her earrings. She offered
resistance and screamed. In an In
stant her left ear was cut entirely
of. and the thief ran away with the
ear. Another woman lost both earf

SLEEPLESS WONDER
Man Claims hs Has Not Slept
For Thirty Years.
He Rests In Bed at Night But Spend,

He Rests in Bed at Night but Spend,
The Time In Reading Books and
Papers.
Most men find It difficult to get the
required eight hours sleep in every
twenty-four. Few are able to live
and work on less than the allotted
number OF hours that should be Civ
en- TO rest. One man, however, Will
liam warner, who resides q few
miles from Great Barrington, Mass.
comes forward with the STARTLING
statement that during the past 80
years he has not closed his eyes to
sleep. He Is sixty years Of age and
In robust health. His physicians can
assign no reason for his long period
OF insomnia. Mr.. Warner insists
that his statement Is true and is
willing to have any and all comers
Investigate and see for themselves.
Mr.. Warner was born In New Marl-
boro. Mass, q few miles from the
place where he now resides. He is
farmer and spends his days work.
Ing In the fields. At night he goes
to bed about midnight. taking books
and papers with him. There he reads
and rests until dawn appears, when
he arises and goes about his duties
on the farm. He never sleeps, but
goes to bed for the purpose of rest
ing his body. Mr.. Warner is a veter-
an OF the Civil war. having served in
Company F, Second artillery.
In his younger days he had one
romance. The day for his wedding
was set and all was in readiness for
his marriage, when the bride-to- be
fed by night and nothing since has
been heard of her. For years Mr.
Warner lived in the hopes Of her re-
turn and often sat at the window
watching for the coming Of his sweet
heart. He is still a bachelor. About
80 years ago he suffered a severe i'll
ness and since that time he has not
been able to sleep. He was in the
grove near his home when he became
unconscious. He remained In this
state for days. When he recovered
the past was blank to him. He
had forgotten everything that had
gone before, but he could not sleep.
He Is as young and active as a man
of 40 years. He stands six feet in
his stockings. Warner has made q
success of farming and has a large
trade vegetables and other produce.
Within q short distance of his
home Is a cemetary where his ances-
tors for several generations are bur-
led. During the past few years War
ner has become a believer in spirit
ualism. His bed stands at a place
he can see the gravestones in the
cemetary. He declares that he often
converses with the spirit OF his dead
father.
Anything associated with sleep
seems to have terrors to Warner. He
says he would try hypnotism to see
II that would cause him to sleep, but
he fears that once he closes his eyes
in slumber he may never awake.
Warner is a man who has never tas-
ted intoxicating liquors. He buys
tea by the case. He keeps his own
house. In referring to his trouble
Mr. Warner calls it "a scientific man

CAUGHT ON THE FLY.
Sheriff Captures Man From Window
Of a Flying Engine.

One OF the most sensational cap
lures of an escaped jail breaker ever
effected occurred early Thursday
morning alont the Delaware, Lacka-
wanna and Western railroad, near
Milton, Pa. when Chief OF Police
MincemOver, of Danville, leaning far
out OF speeding locomotive. seized
Charles Sutton by the collar and
swung him on board, a prisoner.
Sutton had broken out of the Mon
tour county jail several hours be-
fore and believing that he would try
to escape along the railroad, Sheriff
Williams and the chief Of police got
a locomotive crew together and start
ed in pursuit. While running about
20 miles an hour they suddenly es-
pied in the glare Of the headlight
Sutton leaning back against a box
car on the adjoining track to let the
locomotive pass him. He did not
suspect such speedy pursuit, and did
not realize his danger until Mince-
moyer's strong arm shot out and
seized him.

Such Is the case Of Jack Wilcox. n
Quiniault brave, who lives on the

was the faithful wife of Smell. bring
ing him up family OF six children.
Then the dashing young brave ap-
peared and his stories turned her
head. She eloped with him. after he
pursuaded her that the first marriage
was not legal.
1t was not long before the brave
and his bride returned to the reser-
walton and Billy Smell won her back
again. much to the chagrin OF Jack
Wilcox. The first marriage was per-
formed by an Indian agent. If the
contracting parties thought the first
ceremony legal It would be binding.
If the woman did not thing 1t legal
when she eloped with Wilcox she
would not be guilty Of bigamy
