Early yes- terday Miss Mimi, aged nineteen, the only. daughter in a household of six sons, and the widowed mother thought she saw her brother Russell in her room seeking matches at her dressing table. She toid him to hurry off to bed, but as he kept his derby hat ou and stood quite still for a moment, apparently Joking intently at her she spoke more sharply: “Russell, go to bed at once.” At tits he moved siowiy around the foot of the bed and Into the hall, “She would scarcely ‘admit 1 ex- plained her mother to-day. “but ste had a terrible fear her brother migtt have been drinking. which of course is _ Honsense, So she followed iim into the hal. When he started down Instead of up stairs she was more alarmed, than before. But when he reached the first Janding the Mght from a street lamp fell: upon him. and she saw it was a stranger. At that she rushed in to me, crying: “ ‘Mother, there is a burgler tn the Laughed at Her. “‘Nonsense, { replied, and then | Jaughed and said, ‘remember the ten dollars.’ ‘That ten dollars {8 a way we have of joking her if we think she is tenagining things, because one day she | P ohided my for giving my youngest son! = ten doilars to spend about town in an evening.” It made me laugh. since a good mother does net give a boy money to wpend fovlishly, and, finally, she figured out that she nad had a very vivid dream.

Loomis, a trusted employer of the Riker Drug Company {a thotr Brooklyn branch, at No. 456 Bulton street, committed suicide in Cincinnatt, O., by throwing himself Into the Ohio River from the Suspension Bridge. He left his place of business last Tues- day to consult experts at Johns Hop- kins University, Baltimore, and make arrangements for an operation for can- cer of the stomach. Nothing more was heard from him until to-day, when a telogram wag reccived from the Cincin- nat! police telling of the suicide and forwarding the following letter, written by Loomis and left in his hat before he leaped from the bridge. Please notify Mary P. Luomis, No. When the grocery store of William Goldstein, at Madison avenue and One Hundred and Second street, caught fire early to-day there was panic among the twenty-five families that live in the five-story fiat house overhead. The smoke filled the halls and half a dozen women were overcome. They were cared for by the reserves from the East One Hundred and Fourth street station. On the second floor lives the familly of Samuel Cohen. Ail of them were asleep when the flames broke out and all were dazed by the smoke, They were car- ried down by Roundsmen Hoffman and Coyle. A Japanese named Renna was #0 poundly asleep that the door had to be broken down and his head pounded before he woke up. ‘Two men, Hecht and Beck, who live 43 East Bleventh street, Parkors- burg, W.
