Blake Out Very Well.. " '
Copyrighted byLeovA Bbepard, Boston, and
published by special arrangement with them.1
There are men who dispute what they1
do n understand. Mr. Coville is such
n mail. When ho heard a carpenter say
that there were so many shingles on the
roof.of his houso, because the roof con
tained so many square feet, Colville
doubted tho figures, nnd when the car
penter went away lie. determined to test
the matter by going np on the roof nnd
counting them..- Aid he went np there.
He squeezed throngh the scuttle Col
ville weighs 830 and then sat down on
the roof nnd worked his way carefully
nnd deliberately toward the gutter.
When he got part way down he heard a
sound between hitn' and the shingles,
and became aware that there was an In
terference some way in his. further loco
motion, He tritd to turn over and crawl
back bnt the obstruction held him. '
Then he tried to move along a little in
hopes that the trouble would prove but
temporary, but an increased sound con.
viticed him that either a nail or a slivei
had hold of his cloth, and that if
would save any of it he must use caution
His folks were In the house, but he could
not mane tneni hear, and, besides,
didn't want to nttract the. attention of
the neighbors. So bo st' there, until
after dark nnd thought It would have
been an excellent opportunity to hav
counted the shingles, but he neglected
to use it. His mind appeared to run in
to other channels. He sat there an houi
after dark, Feeing no one bo could notify
or his position.
Then. ho. 6a w, two .boys, approach the
gate rrom me nonse nnd, reaching there,
stop. . It was light enough for him to se
that one of the two was his son, and al
though he objected to having the other
boy know of his misfortune, yet be had
grown tired of holding onto the roof,
and concluded he could bribe the strange
ooy into silence. With this arrange
ment mapped ont he took out his knife
and threw it so that it would strike neai
to the boys and nttract their attention
It struck nearer tlwn he anticipated! in
xact u sirucic so clcee as to hit the strange

As soon as the boy recovered his enni

no was connuent, had attempted to kill
him, and Introduced some astonishment
and bruises into his face. Then ho threw
him down, and kicked him in tho side
nnd banged him on the head, and drow
him over into the gutter, and pounded

against the gate. And nil the while the
elder Covillo sat on tho roof and
screamed for. the police, but couldn't get
away;'' ..J,'"f , ' '
And then Mrs. Coville dashed out with
a broom and contributed a few novel
features to the affair at the gate, nnd
ono of the boarders dashed out with a
double barreled gun, and, .bearing the
cries from tho roof, looked up there, and,
espying it figure wfiicb va3 undoubtedly

freed himself from tbo nail, lor,t his hold
on the roof and went sailing down the
shingles with awful velocity, both legs
spread out, his hair on end and hit
hands making deporato but fruitiest
efforts to save himself. He tried to
swear, but was so frightened that he
lost his power of speech, and when he
passed over the edge of the roof with
twenty feet of tin gutter hitched to him,
the boarder gave him tho contmits of the
other barrel and then doveintothe liouse
to load np again.

cherry tree and thence bounded to the
ground, where he was recognized, picket!
