This was the last line that met my I laughed, threw the book on the table and began to undress. If any one enters my room tonight, I thought, as I folded up my vest and placed it under the pillow, "Ill clutch him, grasp him, lay hold on him, catch him, seize him, and yell for gaze. help. When I went to sleep I dreamt that I was wading up a trout stream fishing for black bass with a wad of money for bait and that as fast as I caught fish I was robbed of them by a horse. From the number of fish I had caught I judge that I must have slept two or three hours; then I found myself suddenly awake, listening intently, and anxiously snuffing the air. I was certain of two things. Some one was moving In the room, and I smelled horse. It is easy to write of this thing now in a spirit of levity, but I had no such feeling as I lay there straining my eyes to no purpose In the Inky darkness, but hearing that fellow move about the room boldly, without caution, as though it mattered nothing to him whether I slept or wakened. If I move, I thought, he is ready with his knife or club to silence me forever. I did not know whether or not he had already taken the vest from under my pillow and I did not care just then to investigate. I moved not a muscle, but when the first tumult of sudden fright had subsided I tried to think to reason. I am here for my health, I thought. Now wont It be healthier to lie still and let him take my money than to move a finger and let him take my life what little I have? How did he get In here? Ah, of course! the window. I couldnt budge It, but he Is muscular. I should have thought of that. The What was the man doing? sounds he made were exactly such as a man makes In dressing. Heavens! would he exchange clothes with me, leaving his horsey old suit In the room? He was at the washstand pouring out water washing his hands. My fright was giving way to anger at the cool impudence of the man. Doubtless he had on my clothes now, including the vest, with the wad of bills In the Inside pocket. Coward that I was to lie there and let him take my property. I hesitated no longer, but sprang from the bed and with the cry of Help! rushed with resistless fury slam bang against the partition over where I thought the man stood. Some one tried to open my door, then knocked on It for admittance. Backing toward it so as to guard myself from an attack by the burglar, I found the bolt and lock and threw the door open. A flt.od of light filled the room; the window was closed and the only persons present were myself and my visitor a gentleman fully dressed, with a lighted lamp in his hand and a trout basket slung ovpr his shoulder. There was a burglar In my room, I couldnt see the scoundrel, I began. but I heard him washing his hands and putting on my I stopped, for I saw my clothes hanging where I had left them. I think you must have heard me washing and dressing, said the gentleman, and I must ask you to pardon me for disturbing you. I should have remembered that the walls between these rooms are vuy thin. That is my burglar story. I might devise a better ending for it if my imaginative powers were equally distributed, but they seem mostly to center in my olfactory nerves. I could have sworn that I smelled horse. red-bead- ed C. H. AUGUR. The Mother of Seven Soldier. When Col. Knok, of the duke light infantry, acquainted the queen with the fact that Mrs. of Garrow, St. Bernard, Cornwall, was the mother of seven sons, all in the army, her majesty caused the following leter to be written to Col. Knox: Her majesty considers the fact of seven sons of one family serving in the army, all with exemplary characters, reflects infinite credit on themselves and the parents who have brought them up. The queen desires that you will congratulate Mrs. give her the 10 and framed print of her majesty, which I send herewith, and tell her how glad the queen Is to think of this fine example of good and honorable service to their sovereign and country from the sons of a single Cornish family.

My books were in my trunk and there was nothing at hand to read except an old newspaper which vas doing duty as a cover to the wash-stand. Glancing at this paper I saw that the page exposed to view was made up of syndicate matter and that the prominent article was by a startling coincidence the story of an adventure with i burglar. I began reading It. The narrator told how he found himself In a strange room seeking for a afe place to bestow his money for the night; how he determined to place it between the leaves of a dictionary, and wishing to remember the exact place he thought he would open the book at the word money, but behold, when he opened It the first word that he saw was murder. Here the narrative was broken by a soap dish, which adhered firmly to the paper In spite of my careful efforts to scmove it, and I read no further. Pshaw!
