My plan was. not only to escape barm myself, but to effeot bis capture. I knew tbe po lice mi o's beat, sod be would paa in a short time. Sitting bolt upright, then as I open ed my eyea snd aaw the burglar look log very unpleassotly at me, I said, rubbing my ejei drowsilyalthough, to tell the troth, I never wss more wide awike ia my life: "Hello, John wbat are too looking for T Can't you come lo nr room without making such a eonfoaodod noise 1" Tbe fellow, taken aomewbit a bask at being addressed io this way, said in low bot menacing voice, and point log revolver at me i '8but op I wbat do yon take me a fx M1DDLEBURG "I took you for John I" I replied, with a well asHumed noeehslante.
