Very well; the man came | up from New York and put in the alarm, and charged for it, and said we could sleep without uneasiness now. So we did for & while—say a month. Then one night we | smelled smoke, and I was advised to get up | and see what the matter was. I lit a candle arted toward the stairs, and met a bur- glar coming out of a room with a basket of tin- which he had mistaken for solid silver in | dark. Hewas smoking a pipe. d, we do not allow smoking in this room.” | He said he was a stranger, and could not be ex- pected to know the rules of the house: said he had been in many houses just as good as this one, and it had never been objected to before. He added that as far as his experience went, such rules had never been considered to apply to a yway. Isaid: ‘Smoke along. then, if it is the cus- tom, though I think that the conceding of a privilege to a burglar which is denied to a bish- op is a conspicuous sign of the looseness of the times. But waving all that, what business have you to be entering this house in this furtive and clandestine way, hout ringing the burg- Jar alarm?’ ‘He looked confused and ashamed and sald, with embarrassment: ‘I beg a thousand par- dons. I did not know you had a burglar alarm, else I would have rung it. I beg you wiil not mention it wlere my parents may hear of it, for they are old and feeble, and such a seemingly | Wanton breach of the hallowed conventionalities of our Christian civilization might all too rudely sunder the frail bridge which bangs darkling between the pale and evanescent present and the solemn great deeps of the eternities. May I trouble you for a match?’ “I said: ‘Your sentiments do you honor, but if you will allow me to say it, metaplior is not your best hold. Spare your thigh; this kind light only on the box, and seldom there; in tact, my experience may be trusted. But to return to business; how did you get in here?" “ “Through a second-story window.’ Tt was even so. I redeemed the tinware at wnbroker’s rates, less cost of advertising, de the burglar good-night, closed the window mis | thing, | th the coachman. in the yard beloy | but that was where the coachima | few with my gun to the room indicated, opened the kitchen door, in the way of busi- ness, and rip went that gong! The first time this happened,I thought the last day was come sure. I didn’t think it in bed—no, but out of it—for the first effect of that frigatiul gong is to hurl you across the house and slam you against the wall, and then curl you up, and squirm you like a spider on a stove lid, till somebody shuts that kitchen door. In_ solld fact, there is no clamor that is even remotely comparable to the dire clamor which that gong makes. Well, this catastrophe happened every morning regularly at 5 o’clack, and lost us three hours’ sleep; for, mind you, when that thing wakes you, it doesn’t merely wake you In spots; it wakes you all over, con- selence and all, and you are for elghteen hours of wide-awakedness subsequently—eizh- teen hours of the very most inconceivable wide- awakedness that you ever experienced in your life. Astranger died on our hands one time, and we yacated and left him in our room over- night. Did that stranger wait for the_general judgment? No, sir; he got up at 5 the next morning in the most prompt and unostentatious way. I knew he would; I knew it mighty well. He collected his life insurance, and livetl happy ever after, for there was plenty of proof as to the perfect squareness of his death. : “Well, we were gradually fading away toward a better land, on account of our dally loss of sleep; so we finally had the expert up again, and he ran a wire to the outside of our door, snd placed a switch there, whereby Thomas, the butler, could take off and put on the alarm; but Thomas always made one little mistake—he switched the alarm off at night when he went to bed, and switched it on again at daybreak in the morning, just. in time for the cook to open the kitchen door, and enable that gong to slam us across the house, sometimes breaking a window with one or the otherof us, At the end of a week we recog- nized that this switch business was a delusion andasnare. We also discovered that a band of burglars had been lodging in the house the whole time—not exactly to steal, for there wasn't much left now, but to hide from the police, for they were hot pressed, and they shrewdly judged that the detectives’ would never think of a tribe of burglars taking sanctuary in a house notoriously protected by the most imposing and elaborate purglar alarm in America. Sent down for the expert again, and this time he struck a most dazzling idea—tie fixed the thing so that opening the kitchen door would take off the alarm. It was a noble idea, and he charged accordin, But you already yoresee the result. I switched on the alarm every night at bedtime, no longer trusting to Thomas’ frail memory; and as soon as the lights were out the burglars walked in at the kitchen door, thus taking the alarm off without waiting for the cook to do it in the morning. You see how aggravatingly we were situated. For months we couldn't have any company. Not a spare bed in the house; all occupied by bur- gla I got up a cure of my own. The ex- pert answered the call, and ran another under- ground wire to the stable, and established a switch there, so that the coachman could put on and take off the alarm. That worked first-rate, and a season of peace ensued, during which we got to inviting company once more and enjoying life. But by-and-by the irrepressible alarm in- ted a new kink. One winter's night we were ng out of bed by the sudden music of that awful gong, and when we hobbled to the an- nuneciator, turned up the gas and saw the word * exposed Mrs. MeWilliams fainted dead nd T came precious near doing the same inyseif. I seized my shotgun and stood the coachman whilst that a 1g went on. Iknew that his gon x him ont, too, and that he wonld be alon with his gun as_soon as he could jump into his clothes. When I juc i that the time Was ripe rept to the room next the nursery, glanced rough the window and saw the dim outline of nding at a p ‘arms and waiting for a chance. Then I hopped into the nursery and fired, and in the same instant the coachman fired at the red flash of my gun. Both of us were successful: I crippled a nurse and he shot off ail my back hair. ve | We turned up the gas and telephoned for a sur- pon. There was not a sign of a burglar and no window had been rais One glass was absent, ns charge had come through. Mere was a fine mystery—a burglar alarm ‘going off at midnight of its own accord, and not a burglar in the neighborhood. he expert answered the usual call, and ex- plained that it was a ‘false alarm.’ Said it was asily fixed.

TB $19. “At length a perfectly natural thing caine about—after we had answered three or four hundred false alarms—to wit, we stopped answer- ing them. Yes, I simply rose up calmly, when slammed across the house by the alarm, calmly inspected the annunciator, took note of the room indicated, and then calmly disconnected that roou trom the alarm, and went back to bed as ifnothing had happened. Moreover, I left that room off permanently, and did not send for the expert. Well, t goes without saying, that in the course of time all the rooms were taken off, and the entire machinery was out of service. “It was at this unprotected time that the heaviest calamity of all happened. The burglars walked in one night and carried off the burglar alarm! yes, sir; every hide and hair of it; ripped it out, tooth and toe-nail; springs, bells, gongs, battery and all; they took a hundred and fifty I said, “My | miles of copper wire; they just cleaned her out, bag and baggage, and never left us a vestige of her to swear at—swear by, I mean. “We had a time of it to get her back, but we accomplished it finally, for money. Then the alarm firm said that what we needed now was to have her put in right—with their new patent springs in the windows to make false alarms impossible, and their new patent clock attach- ment to take off and put on the alarm morning and night without human assistance. That seemed a goodscheme. They promised to have the whole thing finished in ten days. phey be gan work, and we left for the summer. ‘hey worked a couple of days; then they left for the summer. After which the burglars moved in and began their summer vacation. When we returned in the tall the house was as empty as @ beer closet in premises where painters have been at work. We refurnished and then sent down to hurry up the expert. He came up and finished the Job, and said: ‘Now this clock is set to put on the alarm every night at 10, and take it off every morning at 5:45. All you've got to do is to wind her up every week, and then leave ae alone—she will take care of the alarm her- self.” fter that we had a most tranquil season during three months. The bill was prodigio of course, und I had said I would not pay { until the new machinery had proved itself to be flawless. The time stipulated was three months. So I paid th> bill, and the very next day the alarm went to bazzing like 10,000 bee-swarms at 10 o'clock in the morning. I turned the hands around twelve hours, according to in- structions, and this took off the alarm; but there was another hitch at night, and I had to iter him and retired to headquarters to report. Next morning we sent for the burglar-alarm man, and he caine up and explained that the reason the alarm did not ‘go off’ was that no part of the house but the first floor was attached to the alarm. This was simply idiotic; one might as well have no armor at all in battleas to have it only on his legs. The expert now put the whole second story on the alarm, charged $300 for it, and went his way. B -and-by, one night, I found a burglarin the third story, about to start down a ladder with a lot of misceilane- ous property. My first impulse was to crack his with a billiard cue; but my second was to refrain from this he was — rapes? og es ap Lear im- pulse was plainly 80 I refrained, and proceeded to compromise.

That sort of non- Sense went ona week or two; then the expert came up and put in anew clock. He came every three months during the next three years and put ina new clock. But it was always a failure. His clocks all had the same perverse defect: They would put the ararm onin the daytime, and they would not put it on at nights and if you forced it on yourself, they wo eee off again the minute your back was yarn “Now there is the history alarm—everything just as extenuated, Sanur and alarm the whole mine, could I ever to Mrs. Mc’ kind of whole shot the about ft sf af i iis Mr. A NOTED BUT UNTITLED WOMAN. t ¥ [From the Boston Giobe.} Mesars.
