Curious Happenimg in a Housk in a Pensylvania Town “I think that about, as curious an experiance as I ever had,” said a re tii ed burglar to a reporter, “I had in a town in Western Pensylvania. I had gvt into a fine big house there without much trouble, and found thin s when I got inside about as I W' to find them. There was some silver in the dining rocm, aid I nipped a few little things that I could get in my overcoat pockets handily, but I had other things in mind, and I went on into the next room which turned out to bo the- li brary. As I threw my light about in this room I saw on a table in the center a magazine open and lying face downward. I picked up this magazene and turned my bull's-eye on it, and saw that it wasopen’at the begiuing of a story. The tit’e caught my eye, and I stood there a ■ moment, with the magazine in one hand and the bull’s-eye in the other, and read a few lines It seemed to be a mighty interesting story ' M ho over had been reading the magazine had been sitteng in a big leather chair, which still remained alongside the tabic. 1 sat down in this big chair, stood the bull’s-eye on the t - hie at my elbow where its light could st l ike the pages, and began to read, and became so interested that 1 forgot'that I wis there on business “I don,t know how long I had been reading maybe, 20 minutes or so, when I felt a hand on my right shoal der. I looked up and saw standing alongside me a tall man in a dressing gown. He had a lamp in his right hand; he me with his left, and that hand still remained on uiv shoulder he looked down upon m« coolly. I confet-s that as far as I was concerned I was surprised, and when he asked me what I was doing there I was at first too flabergasted to reply. But I finally told him I was reading a story in that magazine He asked me what story I was raed ing And I told him. I thought I saw the faintest flicker of a smile on his face at that but I couldn’t be cer tain about it. “‘What do you think of it?’ says he. “I had come back to myself by this time, and I told him I thought he ought to be able to see what I thought of it himself; that I was interested in it enought to let him come down and find me there reading it, but that I would’t un dertake to say what I thought about it absolutely uutil I had finished reading it.” “ ‘Well,’ says the man,‘don’t ht me interrupt you. Go ahead and finish it.’ “He was looking perfectly calm and cool, just as he had been when I first looked up at him. He set his lamp down on the table by the bull’s-eye and pulled up a big chair himself on the other side, 1 and got another chair to put hie* feet 011; he had only slippers on, and I suppose he thought his feet would be cold on the floor. He sat [ down in the big char, put ins *• up on the other, and pulled his dre- : lug gown up around his legs, making himself quite comfortable. Then he picked up a book off the table and went to reading, while he waited for me to finish the sto rv. When I had finished it the man said: “Well, what do you think of it now?” “And I told him (and that’s what I did think about it) that I thought it was immense. ‘ The man Had down his book and got up on his feet again. He picked up his lamp and stood there for a moment holding it and looking at me. He said nothing, but it was perfectly clear to me that he was politely to bow me out of the house. I laid the maga zine dowu and picked up my bulls-eye and moved toward the door just as- I might have done if I had been a guest. The tall man opened the door and calmly bowed me out. As I went down the steps I hear 1 him bolting the door after me. “You know I wondered who he could be, but when I came to find out, I wondered that I hadn’t thought of it myself before; he was the man that wrote the story.” s-AT COST?* STRICTLT JU Ali' K E r F I’R U'FM $17,000 STOCK OF SHOES £ J.LCAMP &>CO. 233 BROAD STREET have concluded to retire from business and tc morow monday morning, throws their Enoi mous stock of shoes on the market for the ben efit of the shoe buyin ? public at large at ACTUAL MARKET COST PRICE NO DKLUSIONi JfOXSIB SHOW STRICTLY STRAIGHT GOODS' yHereis their Cose mark, Study it.
