THE HUSTLER OF ROME, TUESDAY OCTOBER, 16 1894. THE BURGLAR. Scared Away by Shouts For Help From the Room Across the Hall. “After ft good deal of trouble,’’ eaid the retired burglar, “I hud worked my way into the cellar of a house up the river, and had g< t up into the dining room. There wasn’t much of anything there; n fact, it was a disappointment— stuff all plated except a few spoons —and 1 went on up. I struck into a room on the next floor that had a table in the mid dle of it and some chairs around it; looked as though somebody*d been having a little game or draw. There was a bed over in the left hand corner, with nobody in it, and straight across on the other side of the room, with the table between me and it, was a bureau. “I turned on my light long enough to notice all these things and I thought I had ’em photo graphed on my mind, but when I was going past the table on the way over to the bureau I shared it a. little too close and kicked cna of the chairs; just a little bit of a kick, in fact, but the next minute I heard somebody in the room over on the other side of the hall door, right opposite the door of the room I was in, hollerin’: ‘Fire! mur der! mur—der! Jim! Jane! John! thieves I burglars ! robbers! mur— der!’’and then he began to swear. I thought I’d heard people swear: I swear myself sometimes, but I knew when I heard this man that I'd never heard anybody swear be fore. “1 knew he must be a tough old chap, not afraid of anything, tak ing his time about getting around, sitting up in bed now and hollerin’ bloody murder and yelling forth e help, and getting ready to come and eat me up wnen he got ready. It wouldn’t have surprised me a bit to see him push a Gatling gun through his door and open on me with itfbutl didn’t wait. “I went past the house the next day, and when I was going past the front yard I heard the same manyvllin’ ‘Fire! murder!’ and the whole business from end to end. The old villain watj hangin* up a big cage on the varanda, a parrot, you understand. I would have liked very much to wring its neck.’’ “HE LEADETH ME*” ' A Voice That Had Been Still For Years Joins in the Singing. Indianapolis, Ind., October 15.• The first Baptist Church congrega tion was surprised and gratified yesterday morning by seeing one of their members who has been dumb for five years, suddenly re. cover her voice and join in the closing hymn.
