Tom found it impossible to shake him off. Was the valedictorian of J the graduating class to be caught thus igno- miniously • v.- An open basement wmdow gave him an I inspiration. He sped past it then, doubl- iDC cleverly on his foe, sprang through it, jlam'hing to hear his pursuer's footsteps Lrowfainterin hot pursuit up the street. Upstairs Lotta Desmond was brushing out her pretty brown hair preparatory to re- Jtirinf. On her daintily-frilled toilet- Itablet looking oddly out of place, lay Cou-in's I jjjjij revolver. Her uncle and cousin had solemnly installed Lotta as the man of the house during their absence. Jim had re- luiflded her of the exploits of brave Mrs. Brown and plucky Mrs. Peters, as recorded by the Daili/ Chronicle. The first of these I i-idies had, unarmed and alone, held a burclar captive until help came. The se- Lond, under like circumstances, had com- pletely routed two desperate villains. And Lotta had demanded Jim's pistol, and declared tiiat she only longed for a chance to emulate their heroism. And Jim had pro- iiiised to watch the papers for a similar men- tion cf Miss Desmond. So Lotta smiled when her eyes fell on the pistol, for as yet no opportunity for glory had come to her, and Jim would be home to- morrow. Just then her aunt came into the room, fancying, â- "S she had fancied every nigbt since her husband's departure, that she " heard a noise, and would dear Lotta, who wr.s so fearless, mind goibg down stairs to investigate " So Lotta thrust her little bare feet into .â- clippers, threw en a wrapper, and sallied foith, pistol in hand. Aunt Lucy detained her with a last word: in case it should be any one, to " let her know iinmediately but otherwise not to disturb her, as she v.-as exceedingly fati- gued." With a dim recollectloa that the dinner- room window had been closed, the young ffirl made hrviioiseless way thither at once. the gas h::d been put out and a miserable cmdle k'l't buriiing. What Lotta saw by its dim light v;i3 a tall young man, rather roughly clad. Alas Tom, usually something of a dandy had that night donned h,s poorest array, his hair disordered, his clothes grimed with dust and soot, from which not even his face liad escaped, stood coolly examining her uncle's silver. Spirit of Mrs. Brown and Mrs.â€" tlie old lady â€" inspire her. "Drop that, or I lire " Tern tiirued with a start. What he saw « as a pretty girl in a charming negligee, whose voice and hand shook as she uttered this doughty threat, and in whose face a certain look of determination, a look of one frightened at her own daring, appealed to his sense cf humor. But it would never do to laugh at her. Besides, that pistol in her uncertain, unfamiliar hand was no joke. So he said, with dul humility "I surrender. But, for Heaven's sake, put up that revolver You are as likely to slioot yourself as me." " ^ot at all," she replied, evidently nettled 'â-  I am perfectly accufctomed to using it."' Need it be said that this was a deliberate lie, uttered with intent of striking terror to the bosom of the robber For the same purpose Lo'ta continued to level her pistol and eye him with much outward severity and not a few inward tre- mors, think, withal, that your noosebreaker is not the bold desperado that he is painted. Still keeping watch over one is weary work, heigh ho I Tom rapidly determined to see the adventure through. Time en- ough to make his escape should she call for help, or should any fresh complication arise. He hoped she was not I'oinfi' to keep him standing all .ight. Presently he ventured to suggest fiat she could mount guard over him quite as well seated. Lotta assented gladly. Her burglar was quite a model,8hethougfat. And whyshould she encumber herself with that unnecessary pistol, of which, she acknowledged to her- self, she w as much more afraid than was her prisoner. Accordingly sbelaidit carefully down with- in reach. Then, with what seemed to Tom a most amazing underrating of his strength, she announced her intention of holding him until assistance should arrive. To him the situation was not without its charm. It does not of ten happen to any of us that a pretty girl will insist on sitting uext us and holding our han a â€" and that she was pretty, exceedingly pretty, An- struther managed to satisfy himself in spite of the stingy light. Once or twice he addressed a remark to his fair captor, but she discouraged all at- tempt at conversation. And so they sat in silence, while the candle burned low and finally went out, and the cold, gray light of dawn crept into the room. Even this did not canae Ix)tta to change her position. And, looking curious- ly at her, the young man discovers that his stem guardiim was asleep. How long and dark were the lashes resting on the fair cheek, he thought, gazing down at the sweet, peaceful face framed in its wealth of nut-brown hair. Surely none of the young lady's ball-dresses could set oflf her beauty as did that old bine wrapper. Tom was strongly tempted in his charac- ter of robber to sttal a kiss, but there was a certain odd chivalry in his comporition that the J«\ oTthehiiityTherS • • rJn^l^ l^esmond was not the beUe of the Golkgeba'l.itwa»beawae, itrictly OTeak! mg. there were no bdSlf^ '^Thi the iMgnaga of other yonngiidiM. she "re- ceived a great deal of atte^ti^'i^d how she did enjoy herself Alwut the eleventh hour cousin Jim SittCT "'*~*^" " fri«id, Mr. Ans- Lotta's large eyes grew larger with aston- ishment. Mr. Anstruther composedly re- quested the pleasure of a dance, and before she could collect herself sufficiently to refuse his arai encircled her, and they were gUdmg over the pohshed floor in perfect tiiie an! measare. "You have my step exactly," said Miss Desmond, when they stopped. "Have I Then it must be a direct in- spiration, for I never was known to keep time with any one before." Now did ever a man waltz to perfection without knowing it? Lotta looked at him a htth contemptuously. Her thought did him injustice. Tom was not affecting mod- esty, only making talk to keep off the ques- tion he expected. ' ' May I take you into the library There is an anxious-looking youth I should like to avoid. I suspect that I have stolen his dance." "If you have, you are only pursuing your profession of a robber," laughed Miss Des- mond. "What were you doing that night in uncle's dining-room " Then it all came out, and Tom explained and apologized, seated in an alcove of the great college library. "And how frightened you were^when I and the pistol appeared upon the scene " said the lady, maUciously. "I was not " he said, indignantly. ' ' You turned pale. " "Then we must have been a well-match- ed pair for courage. The pistol shook so in your hand that I was afraid it would go off accidentally. That was the worst feature of the caJ33, for I do not yet believe that you would have been blood-thirsty enough to shoot me." " I am sure I would not. I was immense- ly relieved to wake up and find my captive fled." "What did you do?" " Counted the spoons and went to bed." " The spoons were all right. There was but one thing stolen that night." " Mercy what was that " " Only the burglar's heart" â€" sentiment- ally. Lotta looked at him and bepan to laugh. Then she said " You might advertise for it as people do for stolen articles. You might say, ' Of no value to any one but the owner.' " " Thank you but I am not sure that I war.t it returned," said Anstruther, laugh- ing, too, but lettia? his eyes rest upon her face until the warm color surged up be- neath his gaze. " 'Thou hast a thief in either eye Would steal it back again.' " he quoted low. Lotta was a little glad as well as a good deal sorry that her ill-used partner at this moment appeared at the doorway. "Before that fellow comes, can't you promise me one more dance " murmured Anstruther. "I am engaged for all but the last. I can give you that one, if you are going to stay till the end." How Miss Desmond contrived to pacify the rightfnl claimant, and how partner suc- ceded partner until the end of the evening, need not be told. It is certain that she en- joyed no dance as she did that last one with Tom. And then Tom's worst enemy could not criticise his dancing. As he relinquished her to her cousin's care, Anstruther heaved a sigh of exagger- ated but real regret. Then Lotta put out an impulsive little hand, and said hastily "Mr. Burglar, if you can conquer your fancy for entering people's windows enough to call in a more orthodox way, I shall be pleased to see you." "Thank you," murmured Anstruther, 'pressing the soft, warm band w ith quick, unnecessary warmth. "Happy's the wooing that's not long a-doing." The acquaintance so oddly begun was prosecuted with ardor. Lotta's bu rg lar laid hot siege to her affections, and before long induced her to set up house-keepingâ€" I had almobt written house-breaking -with him. â- me Keen t Enemy of Women. Quiz says "A man's foes are tho^e of his own household, and the keenest enemy of women are women themselves. No one can inflict such humiliation on a woman as a woman can when she chooses for if the art of high 1 anded snubbing belongs to men, that of subtle wounding is pecuUarly femin- ine, and is practiced by the best bred of her B'x Women are always more or less an- taconistic to each other. They are gre^- ious in fashions and emulative in follies, but 1 hey cannot combme they never support theu- weak sisters they shrink from those who are stronger than the average and if they would speak the truth boldly thev would confess a radical contempt for each other's inteUect, which, perhaps, is the real reason why the sect of the 'emancipated commands so smaU a foUowmg. Half a dozen ordinary men advocating 'einancipa- tion' doctrines would do more towardleaven- ine the whole bulk of womankind than any number of first-class women. Where they do stand by each other it is from mstmctive or personal affection, rather than from class solSirity. And this is one of the most BtrikJng distinctions of sex, and one cause, among othm, why men have tne upper hand, and why the y are able to keep it.

Four or five weeks ago a woman with an undecided look on her face entered a Detroit hardware store, threaded her way for sixty feet among coal stoves of every pattern, and timidly inquired " Do you keep stoves here " "Yes'm." " Coal stoves " " Yes'm." She said she had been thinking of getting a coal stove for the winter, and the clerk took her in hand. He showed her how the doors worked and how the dampers were arranged, and the flues situated, and he talked of double draughts, great savings, increased cheerfulness, reduction in price, and all that, and she said she'd think it over and drop in again. In about three days the woman reappear- ed and inquired of the very same clerk if they sold coal stoves. He replied that tbey did sell one n3W and then, and he cleared his voice and began his usual thirty minute lecture on the Michigan, the Detroit and the Peninsular base-burners. The beautiful nickle-plate, the place for the tea-kettle, the ornamented legs â€" the anti-clinker shakerâ€" rail pwjints wpre touched upon and praised and explained, and the woman said she wouldn't take one along -under her arm just then, but would call again. She called again that same week, heard the same lec- ture from the same clerk, and started for the bank to draw the money to pay for a base-burner. That was the last seen of her for a week. Then she walked softly in and innocently inquired "I suppose you keep coal stoves " "No ma'am." " Not any kind " "Not a one. We used to, but went out of the business a year ago." There were twenty coal stoves on the floor, but if she saw them she didn't let on. She heaved a sigh of disappointment, glanced around her, and went slowly out with the remark "Well, I don't know as I want to buy one, but I thought it wouldn't do any harm to look at some of the late.-t makes." A Speed in War Vessels. The French have lately launched a new turreted ironclad, the Arethuse, carrying foar steel guns in her turrets, besides a bat- tery of twelve smaller guns. Her engines are intended to develop as high as 4,200 horse-power, giving her an average sea speed of 16 knots an hour. Her length is 296 feet 8 inches between perpendiculars, and her displacement about 3,380 tons. It is but a few years since our Naval Ad- visory Board recom trended the building of unarmored cruisers to have a speed of 15 knots. The inability of such cruisers to cope in speed with nnarmored vessels like the Arizona and the Alaska, which would be promptly converted into cruisers in c-uio of war with a commercial power, was point- ed out the moment the recommendation of the Advisory Board was submitted. In the Arethuse the proposed cruisers would meet an antagonist which they could as little fight as run away from with any hope of success and the naval constructors of other nations are not likely to rest until still higher speeds are attained by ironclads, as they have already been by Ughter vessels. It would be consistent with the general conduct of the naval affairs to go on with the building of 12 knot cruisers, admirably appointed to secure the comfort of officers on official picnics and practically useless ia time of war but it may be questioned whether the people, who have to foot the bills, will be at all pleased to have it done. If the navy department cannot design or get designed a cruiser capable of making or approaching twenty knots, the reconstruc- tion of our antiquated naey had better be postponed until the department itself has been reconatmctfd. -â€"I â-  1 1^ I iii^ Preneli NUiUlata.

So it isn't to be wondered at that when my wife got up the other morning at three o'clock and told me to turn out, for the comet was rising, I objected I said that I didn't take any interest in comets at three o'clock in the morning that I had seen comets of various kinds â€" long-tailed, short- tailed and bob-tailed in asso.ted sizes, and I didn't want any comet on my plate She said the tail of this one was 75,000,000 miles Ion?, and I said that I didn't care if it was a million or more miles longer and had just come out of curl papers and had insects in it. Sbe said that Prof. Barnard had noticed a split in its head and that it was 2,000 miles across the split, and I said if the head was as long as reported â€" 34,000 milesâ€" the tired thing was just gaping and that the split would close as soon as it had yawned enough. Finally I told her that if she would come back to bed I would buy her a small comet to wear on her winter hat.

Railway Pliotography. Instantaneous photography, in its more familiar aspect, supposes mo. ion of the ob- jects photographed but another form of it is that in which it is the camera, more especially, that has motion ai translation, as in photographing from balloons or trains. The practicability of photographing land- scapes fron^ the window of a train running at a rate of even forty miles an hour has been recently proved by Dr. Candeze, who uses what he otlls a gyrograph for the pur- pose. The apparatus comprises a copper tube similar to that which carries the lenses in ordinary cameras, but the lenses are placed on opposite sides parallel to the axis. Within is a shntter similar to the box of a stopcock it presoits two quadrangular apertures, which, according to the position ot the shntter, do or dja not let pass the light ray« in making a quarter of a turn. This rotatory movement is obtained by means of a spring liberated from a catch. An exposure of only one one-hundredth of a Sfoond maybe had.
