The guests were awakened by the
continuous ringing. despite the fact
that tho police found no evidence OF
burglars Every effort to reach the In
strumcnt and stop u failed. Employees
OF the hotel brought out n ladder and
two slender poles each story In
height. A young man In tho crowd
volunteered to mount the ladder. BY
bracing the two poles together he was
able TO poke the alarm with the end
most one. This caused the ringing
to- stop. but the moment the pole was
withdrawn the alarm began again to
ring.
Things were reaching n serious stage
at the hotel when the young man who
had first volunteered startled the spec
tators by climbing hand over hand up
the wall OF the building. He reached
the alarm and before the crowd knew
what he was about had the alarm
gagged. He had To hold onto n cor

pole In place with the other.

punishment may be just, but We would
hardly favor it, and doubt if the great

It. The tendency Of the age Is rather
to abolish capital puniahment, than to
extend it for other ofienses than MUIR

ted Is good for society, rather for its

severity. Delays and appeals on
