nt 711V < st Droailvvay and lives across the
street , was awnkencd ycetcnlay morning nt
1 o'clock liy a rather violent remark from
an Ingenious burglar alarm , which he has
rigged up botvvren the store and the house.
Uartlet dressed and went over to the store ,
armed with a revolver. While he was recon-
noltcrlng around the back door a fellow getup
up from among a pile or boxes and ran
away. IJartlcU emptied his revolver In the
direction of the fugitive , but the latter out
ran the bullets and none of them took effect.
Dartlctt went back homo after more cart
ridges , but was unable to find them. He re
turned to the store , opened the front door
and went In to look for the other burglar ,
who had struck a match while Uartlett was
across the street. Uartlctt had walked some
little distance toward the back end. of the
store when he glanced around and saw the
figure of a man Just about to slide out of the
front door. He ran back and grappled with
the fellow , striking him repeatedly with his
revolver until he had him down on the floor.
The burglar was armed with a big cheese
knife , with the back of which he struck
Dartlett hard blows that drew blood. About
this time Ofllcer Martin appeared and the
fellow was taken to the c.ty Jail , where It
was found that ho was Lee Torman , a well
known character about town.
An effort was made to Induce him to name
his pal , and he Eald his name was L2d Walker.
He had been seen with Cd Uakcr , a drug
gist's son , during the evening up until 12
o'clock , and two olllcers were Immediately
sent to Baker's house to arrest him. He was
In bed , but was covered with perspiration
as though ho had had a hard run of It.
Uoth Dnrtlett and Porman were covered
with blood , most of which came from For-
man. The city physician was summoned
to care for Forman , whose condition was
such jesterelay morning that ho could not
have a preliminary hearing In police court.
A search warrant was sworn out during
the afternoon for the residence of liaker
and rormnn. 1216 Avenue C. and the search
for stolen goods was made by Constable
Baker. A bottle of morphine was found ,
which was Identified as having been stolen
from George S. Davis' drug store last week.
At the same time eight razors were stolen ,
but none of them were found. It Is also
claimed that the two men broke Into Win
chester's saloon not long ago and stole n
lot of liquors and cigars , together with a
small amount of cash.
City I'hyslc'an Macrae stated last evenIng -
Ing that Forman was badly battered up by
the repeated collisions of his head with Dart-
lett's revolver , but he hardly thought he
would prove seriously hurt.

Mrs I.jncli of Unrolii Commit * Ru'ilclo In
a Council lllufN Ilixpltiil.
Mrs. Sarah Lynch , one of the Inmates of
St. Bernard's hospital committed suicide
yesterday morning some time between
G and S o'clock. She was In a deli
cate condition when she arrived at the
hospital on April 25 from L'ncoln , Neb.
Since she arrived at the hospital she has
been in the habit of taking a walk about the
grounds each night and morning. Yesterday
morning she started out about 6 o'clock and
nothing more was tven of her for a long
time. No uneasiness was felt until 9 o'clock ,
when word was brought In that her body
was hanging to a tree In the
rear of the hospital.
Dr. Macrae , who was performing an opera
tion In the Institution at the time , went out
and cut the body down , and found life ex
tinct. Among her possessions two letters
were found , one of which was directed to the
sister superior of the hospital. It told vvhero
her burial dress was to be found and among
other things said : "Telegraph Mr. N. Ikes
of IMeasantdale , Seward county , Neb. , that
his daughter Sadie Is dead. "
The other letter was sealed ana directed
to bo delivered to whoever should como for
her remains.
While the Inquest was being held In the
afternoon at Lunkley's undertaking rooms
rather an Interesting episode took place.
Coroner Jennings was out of the city In
the morning and Justice Fox was asked by
some of the sisters at the hospital to offi
ciate In his place. The coroner came. In
shortly after the holding of the inquest had
commenced , and seeing the justice seated at
the table , remarked : "You'ro a little ahead
of the game , aren't you ? "
Justice Fox Immediately flared up and re
plied : "I'll have you understand , joung
man , that I'll not bo dictated to by any
such pup as you are. "
"And I want it understood , Mr. Fox. "
rejoined Jennings , "that If It were not for
your gray hairs I'd teach jou how to talk
like a gentleman. "
"You get out of hero and mind your own
business , " yelled Fox ; "I've a notion to
mop up the Moor with you. "
Jennings went , but ho was not In any
particular hurry about It , and Fox wna at
length left monarch of all he surveyed. The
Jury , which consisted of M. Abel , Thomas
Pilling and M. Goodwin , then proceeded to
use up three hours In ascertaining whether
Mrs. Lynch committed suicide or not. A
verdict of suicide by hanging was finally
rendered.
In talking upon the matter Coroner Jen
nings said : "No Inquest was needed In the
case , and I do not recognize this as being
an Inquest , for It was held without my ordl rs
when I was In a condition to give orders.
I shall charge up the regular fee for view
ing the body , and I hardly think the Hoard
of Supervisors will bo so foolish as to pay
Justice Fox fees for the Inquest. "
The Justice Kept no record of the testi
mony.

In the mathematics class one day at Wil
liams college , says Harper's Bazar , Prof.
S - , who was rarely made the subject of
college Jests , was excessively annoyed by
some man "squeaking" a small rubber blad
der. The noise seemed to come from near
a ceitain Jack Hollis , and after querying
each of his neighbors , and receiving a nega
tive answer , Prof. S - said sternly :
"Hollis , do jou know who Is making that
unbearable noise ? "
Hollis , who had been the guilty person all
along , assumed an air of stoical bravery and
said calmly , "I know sir , but I prefer not
to tell. "
Prof. S - 's angry face grew calmer , and
with evident pleasure he replied : "I re
spect your scruples , Hollis. They do you
credit , and should shame the guilty man ,
sir ! "
The Demure Mun.
A demure looking llttlo man approached
the haughty clerk in a grocer's shop and
meekly asked If he had any coffee to sell.
"We have ground coffee , " said the young
man.
"No other kind ? "
"None. This Is the best ground coffee on
the market. "
" 'But I don't want It , " the llttlo man
braced up. "I got some Migar here the other
day with sand In It , and I don't want coffee
with ground In It. You must think I want
the earth. "
