Brooklyn Llfo : It waa the residential part of ( he city , the hour was 2 a. ra. , and Torap- kins was carefully , If a trifle unsteadily , feeling his way homo along tbo dark and silent street. Suddenly a figure muffled in a , cloak sprang up In front of him. Tompkins - kins turned a deathly yellow , .and half fell , half staggered against the fence. "Your money or your life , " hissed the miscreant - creant , the barrel of bis revolver gleaming In front of him. "Merciful heavens , how you icared mot" gasped Tompkln * . " 1 thought It was my wife. " Rl'vri.lXI OK RIMTI.EIt * . llotr the Ronicti Rlilrr * Kr | t Their "llnnil In" nt < iintlimo. When I Joined the ItouKh Itldors In the field , writes n correspondent of Collier's Weekly , I had nothing but my oldest suit of clolhes and ft good six-shooter. "Haven't you anything of your own ! " asked Colonel Roosevelt , after a pitying plntico nt uiy blcyllo slippers and straw hit. hit."I "I tnvo some extra eyeglasses , sir" I "Well , you'll have to 'rustic' for n uni form and equlpmenta. " remarked the colonel nel , "but you'd better bo careful how you do it. " At the next Inspection 1 wag arrayed In a First Hegular cavalry hat , n xhlrt from the New York Sevcnty-flrst , Spanish trou sers , a navy revolver. In a German cav alry holster from the Prussian mlllttarr attache , a Cuban machete , a Red Cross blanket and a mulc-drlvcr'a poncho. "Where did you get the clothes ? " asked Coloccl Roosevelt adding "I ' , quickly , won't nsk. As long as you have a uniform you'll do. " With this encouragement from a high quarter r was duly started on my military career nnd It wns not my fault If I lacked for aught henceforward. Yet I learned that the thing could be overdone. That same night there was a terrific row because some Napoleonic Kcnlus succeeded In fllch- Ing the only package of sugar In the outfit , Just after the captain's orderly had for mally donated It to the troop. Every man's hand was lifted ngslnst the other and the quarrels and recriminations became BO fierce that several of the former cattlemen fondled their sis-shooters dangling at their hips , Next day I was ordered to report nt di vision headquarters across the hill. While I was Btaudlng at attention I heard the fol lowing dialogue between General Wheeler and his adjutant : "I have found your saddle horse , sir. " "Where was it ? " > "In the Rough Riders' camp. " "Well , I'll be .damned ! How did It gel there ? " "They stole It , sir. " r f t ' * "Where la It now ? " "It is still over thero. They claim It Is their own and refuse to give It up. They say they found it grazing In their trenches , four days ago. " The old general arose In his wrath , ex claiming : "Is there anything those devils won't Bteal ? Report the facts to Colqnel Boose-volt with my compliments , nnd tell htm that I must insist on having my horse returned lo me. " The adjutant departed , and General Wheeler turned to me. As he recognized the cross sabers and number one on mr array hat his face clouded and ho said : "So you are one of the Rough Riders. Well , you may be good fighters In fact you have shown yourselves to bo good fighters " ; but for downright thievery you are the worst I ever have known. Why , your camp Is known all over the army as the den of' thle\es. It Is a wonder to me how some of you ever managed ( o get out here un hanged. " "We have the sheriff of Cripple Creek to keep us straight , sir , " said I , saluting , and was promptly sent away on detail. When I got back to our camp I found the general's horse still grazing at HS place , while the general's adjutant was making excited - cited expostulations In front of Colonel Roosevelt's tent. TAKES A LONG HLEEP. An. IlUnoln Woman Mnklnic Record an u LoiiK-Dliilnnce Sleepor. Mrs. Rosaline Haven , wife of D. S. Haven of Wyoming , a village south of Kewaunee , 111. , fell asleep ten week * go and has since lain in a stupor from which nothing can arpuso her. , , Tha case has baffled all 4h physicians of the .neighborhood. ' ' Mrs. Karen , appears to be sleeping peacefully. Shoi U given nourishment thrco times day and Is' apparently gaining in flesh , but ahe Is en tirely oblivious to all surouudlngs and bap- pcnlngs. Mrs. Haven's long sleep began May 28 , ' relates the Chicago Times-Herald. Previous to its coming she had suffered from nervous prostration and at times would become un conscious for hours , during which time her body became- stiff and rigid. These attacks were frequent In the later weeks In May and Mrs. Haven complained of being ex cessively tired. She anticipated a lasting stupor and con fided her fears to her husband , who ridi culed the thought. When her presentment was fulfilled she wns removed to the homa of her aunt , Mrs. Collins , where she still remains a wonder to the residents of the village and a puzzle to the numerous phy sicians who have attempted to diagnose her ailment. As gho lies In bed she sleeps as peacefully as a child and a person might readily cwv- ' cludo the body was lifeless were It not for a breathing motion which Indicates life. Her pulse is regular and not above normal and her temperature , which has been noted by the physlclaus through long Interval * , re mains practicaly the name. She has not opened her ycs nor spoken a word since 'tho ' stupor came on and the muscles of her whole body arc completclr relaxed. It has been noticed at times that the position of her feet and hands are changed , but so slight as to be almost Imperceptible. Occasionally she groans , as If In great pain , but her expression Is one ot rest. ODD SEWING MACHINES. Same of the Mare Carlan * af the Use ! to Which They Are Pat , Hm bu to hole 611'tiip machine Is fa- ! mlllar , but.lt Is probable that the buttqn- sewlng machine U less so. Such machines , | however , have been used for years , says tbs New York Sun. The same button-sewing ' machine might servo to sew on buttons of a dozen styles and sizes , but thqy would all be buttons with the eyes at the same distances apart. There are many buttons of various sizes as to diameter whose eyes ' are punched alike. Button-sewing machines are most commonly used to aew on buttons that are placed close down to the fabric , as on underwear , and many other things. They are not used to sew on buttons as they are often sewed on clothing , where , after sewing on the button , the thread It drown with a few tight turns around be- ' twcen the button and the cloth , thus rala- ' Ing the button upon a little column. Ordinarily In the use of swing machines * the material Is fed to the machine. In sowing carpets the machine travels along the carpet. The carpet with the edges * to i bo sqwed together la stretched and held between - ' tween the supports of a frame. The car- pet-sewing machine Is placed on the double edge of the carpet , along which U travels , as It is operated , sewing as It goes. There are carpet-sowing machines that nro oper ated by band , and also machines that ore ' operated by power. Sewing machines have long been used for a great variety of leather work. Bpmo ol ' the machines used for such purposes , as , ' for example , sew-jng machines used for stitching leather or rubber belting , are powerful machines that stitch through such materials half or three-quarters of an Inch ' or more In thlckeness. Besides machines , used for stitching leather there are lso ! mode sowing machines that are used for I stitching paper in blank books and otheri , Ex-Slnvea' Hume AnioulMloM , ST. JOSEPH , Mo. .
