A STRIIIGE EllfilENCE. :

 

 

If there are those inclined'to doubt-
the probability of the followmg story.
told to me'as the truth by an eminpnt
and trustworthy gentleman of San
.lf‘rancisco, they
comprehend some ofrthc most-
things of life. He mud to me: .

“A few summers ago my family left
town tospend some. weeks int-he coun-
1‘: ry. I gave the servants 0. vacation and
arranged to stay alone at. my house.
For aflchange I had a bed placed in the
thawing-room. which was in. the front
of the house on the lower floor. On
(me side of this room was the vestibule,

vital

' into which the outer door opened, and
' on. the other-ah exterior postage which

opened upon the street through a gate.

and which ran back alongside. the house .

in the rear of the prems'scs. Itwas
paved with board-.4. ~.:c;:ns-2 of which had
worn slightly loose. The grate was
closed with an ordinary lift-latch.

“We had lived in tire house a number
of years, but I had never slept gin that
rodm before. The front of the room
was taken up by a bay window, which
was furnished on the inside with ordi-
nary slat. blinds. My bed was placed
at the opposite‘end of the room, against.
the sliding doors. ‘

"I had arranged to take my meals
dowutown. On the first. evening of m y
solitary occupancy I returned to the
house shortly after dinner and read
in my improvised bedroom until ten
o’clock. Then I pulled down one of
the upper sashes of. the window, closed
the blinds and went to bed.

“Ordinarily, I would fall quickly

_ asleep 0n retiring, but the novelty of

my position, and perhaps some busi-
ness anxieties, kept me awake for an
hour or two. This worried me and
made me nervous. The stillness of the.
night came on, but still I. remained
awake. It was while I was lying in
this state that I heard the latch of
the gate opening into the side passage
cautiously raised. then some one. step
cautiously within, leaving the gate
Open, and then footfalls proceeding
stealthily toward theater of thehouse,
causing a loose board here and there
to squeak.

"I listened with the most eager and
strained alertness, for my immediate
conclusion was that a burglar, perhaps
having observed the departure of the
family and assuming that the house
had been temporarily deserted, had
come to plunder the ‘place. I heard
him try opd then abandon the secure-
ly barred door opening from the rear
porch upon the passage.

“A lattice extended from the lower
rear porch to the upper. Without
moving, I heard the intruder slowly but
nimbly scale the lattice and step upon
the floor of the upper porch. A hall
door and a. bed chamber window both
opened upon this porch, and I was curi-
0113 to note which the burglar would
attack, and began to Wonder if they
had been. locked.

“He chose the window. I heard the
sash lock snap under the pressure of
his old chisel. After a. pause he stepped‘
into the room and proceeded to ransack
it. It was my wife’s room, and al-
though I knew that she had provided
elsewhere for the safe care of her furs
and other more valuable clothes, I re-
flected there must have been left. a.
number of things which a burglar
might think worthy of attention. I

spread it upon the floor and proceed to
pile. upon it the plunder which he found
in the trunks, chifionnieres, closets and
the like.

ing for a- moment. ‘

"These occurrences had a surprising
effect- upon my nerves.
tween my temporary, bedroom and the
vestibule, was open for ventilation, and

i. realized that I was almost inphysical ~

hesitate to kill me should that prove'

necessary tohis safety. I knew that

sooner or later he would descend the

stairs, at the foot of which was the

open door of my room. It would not;

would have been extraordinary if an-

as 1 might to reason out some other 1705- l
sibility, there came the steady foot/-i
maps of .a thief on the boards of the ;
outer passage. I studied this step so
intently and analytically that I was
certain the intruder was not the same
as the first. Then I began towonder.
what he would do. . ' _ ,

“I was not surprised to hear him try ,
the door of the lower porch and find it.
strongly barred within, nor greatly toI
hear him climb the lattice as the other ,
had done. I was curious to see whether ‘
he would attack the door or the window I
after he landed on the porch. By a sin-
gular coincidence he chose the window. .
i heard him try it, and imagined that he ‘
started on discovering that the latch.
had been broken.
upon entering the room he was sur-i
prised and confused to see its disorder. l
But he drew a. sheet from the bed and ,
spread it out on the floor and proceeded :
to ransack the room. Evidently his be-
wilderment increased, and he must!
have been discouraged to find so little
worth taking. '

“He Was not long in completing the
looting of the room, and then he went
to the door and stood amoment in the.
passage, listening intently. After that
he began carefully to descend the
stairs. I-Iis conduct thenceforward was
exact! y a. repetition of his predecessor’s.
He passed my door. tink'led the plated
silverware in the dining-room, left it
alone, returned to the. vestibule, stood
a. moment listening at my open door,
cautiously retreced his steps upstairs, :
passed through the window, closed it,
dropped his parcel to the ground, clam- '
bered down the lattice and passed out,
closing the gate behind him. ‘

“It may be supposed that the coinci¥
deuce amazed me beyond measure.
This, more than anything else, seemed :
to unnerve me all the more. All this
time I realized I had been acting the
port of a coward. Merely tohavelight—
ed the gas in my room would have
cleared the houSe of the second bur-
glar, but I had not/the courage to do
that.

“My alarm and nervousness became ;
so great that. I arose from bed and was '
just about to strike a match with '
which to light the gas in the chandelier I
when I_ heard the gate latch click fori
the third time. My match remained
unstruck, and I listened with a fasci<
nated intentness to this last invasion. :
In all particulars it was identical with t
the second, down to the point when the
burglar descended the stairs and
passed my own door on his way to the
dining-room. To light the gas then
would have been to place the man in
a corner and compel him to fight. I
realized not only that it is taking one’s
life in his own hands, to cut- off a. bur-
glar‘s retreat before attacking him (as
a knowledge of a chance of escape di-
verts his attention from the necessity
for self-defense and renders h‘im
easier to overcome),th that I was now
in a condition in which I lacked both
the courage. and the strength to make
the attempt. ' ‘

“The position which I now occupied
in the room was half way between the
bed and the window. As I was so
much nearer the window than before.
I could hear sounds from without with
much _more distinct-noes. While I
stood there listening to the third bur-
glar tinkle the plated ware '31 was
startled to hear the gate latch click
again and the footfall of a. fourth bur-
glar on the board-paved passage. As
he was climbing the lattice a fifth en-
tered the gate, then a sixth, then oth-
ers,‘ until burglars in an endless pro-
cession were entering my premises and.
riding my house on one common and
unvarying plan. .

“It is useless to say that an intelliv
gent man should not have entertained
such an idea for a moment. We know
that I might have reasoned that p01"
hops that there had been only one,,or.
at most, two, burglars, after all, and
that, the fright which they gave me
caused me to conjure up the others
from a fear-deranged imagination. It
might. be profitable to indulge in a

 

subject, but the truth remains that I
could not reason atoll.

,f‘In simple desperation, - perhaps
moved by a sort of faScination,.I crept.
to the window in order to observe with
idle. curiosity the procession of bur-
glars entering the gate. I turned the
slot of a lower blind and looked out.
Not a, soul visible, and yet burglars
were still pouring through the gate!

“The explanatidn came like a. shock-
ing revelation. The wind was playing
with some loose blind slats immediate-

out- of that slight. and varying's‘ound
myuimagi-nation had constructed the
phantasy from beginning to end. "No
burglar at all had invaded my housc.‘ l

There are people imbued with a cer- :

taln love of adventure, and there are
other people abnormally curious. Ibe-
loug to the latter class, and my curiosi-
ty often gets the better of me,

My friend Wilson, who is‘a member

l Ay go now to Mcenesota to vork. Yo

of the secret service on the police force, '

the night before had been relating to
me some rather interesting remin1s~

' cences of his experience with a certain

clement of society known to us as
“confidence men,” and he was inconsid-
erate enough to arouse my curiosity.
“Curio,” he said ( that. is my nick-
name among the boys), “your desire to
investigate all phases of humanity may
lead you into trouble one of these days,
but if you have a mind to try the experi-
ment and will follow my instructions
1 think I can provide you with enough

l amusement to-morrow to last you for

several weeks.”
I couldn’t stand the pressure and

~ jumped at the chance.

“You have all the natural require-
ments," said W'ilson. “You look very
green and unsophisticated, and you
will at‘once become an object of inter-
est to the confidence ‘steercr.’_ The part
you will play is a simple one. All you

. have got to do is to make the oppor-

tunity and the ‘stcerer' will do the rest.
Remember one things—under no cir-
cumstances bet or loan mono to any-
one you chance to meet,”

Then Wilson gave me my lesson. A
suitable wardrobe was arranged for me
to impersonate a green country youth,
and bright and early the next morning
I alighted from a. train at the X0111:-
western depot. I was looking foracon-
fidence mamand though Wilson assured

’ me I would not meet. with any serious

injury or serious trouble so long as I
kept my eyes open, still I must confess
I felt a certain sense of nervous uncer-
tainty which in a. timid man might be
attributed to fear.

My instructions were limited. When
I reached the depot in the" garb of a.
country youth, all that was required
was to conduct myself as a stranger
naturally would; stand around the
waiting-room for a. few moments, and
if no one approached me to go to the
street and gaze up and down as if un-
certain which way to proceed.

I first waited in the depot until the
passengers had all left, but as no one
approached me I decided to try the
street. Here I met with no danger sig-
nals other than a lotof cab drivers, who.
tried to persuade me they knew more
of my‘business than I did myself, and
insisted that I wanted to take a ride.
But. I was looking for a confidence man,
and I gave these fellows to understand.
that. I was a very positive-minded conn-
lry boy- .

Between Erie and Huron streets on
Wells there is a. small dry goods store
\t ith rather an 'odd display in the wind

dew, and as I came along there were .

several people standing in froht in-
specting the wares. As I always want
to see everything that. anybody else
considers worth looking at I stopped.
also. Among the spectators wasa man
who looked to me to be a Swedish emi-
grant, and as his curiosity was appar-
ently as abnormal as mine we were‘
both Standing there when the rest had
gone. .- .

As I was about to move on the Swed-
ish emigrant- turned to me and in
broken English Said:

“Mecster, yo can tell me var Ay fint-
State street?”

It would have been just; as easyfor
me to tell the truth, and there was no
apparent reason why I should do oilrer-
wise, but. it was my mission that morn-
in g to appear in the light of a stranger,

the city myseu and could not tell him'
where to find State strcct. 'l‘lu‘rc seems ,
to be an affinity of soul between stran-
gers in a strange land, and the Swede
warmed towards me. Ordinarily the
Swedish emigrant is not my choice of -
companion,but I had been disappointed
in my. morning escapade. and when he
asked me which way I came from and.
where I was going I allowed myself to
gradually drift into cbnversation. " I
informed him I had just come in lrom
Dakota, where I “had been working on
a farm,- and was on my way to my home '

' \

 

- the Swede said I had paid for one drink

' money, whereupon the stranger be-

know det place?”.

No, I did not know much about Minne-
sota, only having pasSed through the
state on my way to Dakota.

The conversation drifted from onel
thing to another as we walked alongl
Wells street, until, passing by one of '
those institutions calculated to cheer;
the inner man,‘ my new acquaintance .
asked me to have something warm. I

 

or was cool, and I decided a stimulant
would not. be bad, so I accepted his
invitation.

As we were about to order some-
thing a well-dressed, genteel-looking
man came in and spoke to us.

“Going to have a. drink?” ,

I answered that we were. 3

“Well, I thought I’d have something
myself. Won’t you join me ‘9”

“Yo can’t do dot,” said the Swede.

“Why not?” , .

“Vel, 'dar ben two of us und yust but.
von of yo; yo drink vid us.”

“No, but I’ll shake you the dice tosee
who pays the bill.” '

The Swede consented, but said he
only knew how to shake one kind of. '
dice. He explained his way of shaking,
and the slick-looking man agreed that ,
it. would save time, so we proceeded.

One of the party was to turn the dice '
box, containing three dice, upside down,
and We were all to make a guess at the
number the tOps and bottoms of the -
three dice added together would make,
and the one farthest. from the mark was
to pay for the drinks. Our slick friend
guessed 17. I guessed 23. and the Swede
20. “’9. turned the liti over, counted the
tops and bottoms, added them together,
and found the number to be 21.

The new gentleman became inter-
ested and wanted to try it again, but.

and he would pay for the next. No, the
stranger wouldn’t have that, so my
Swedish friend said he would play if we
would allow him to pay for the drinks
in case he failed to call the exact num-
ber. We both demurred, but the Swede
insisted and chose 21. Sure enough,
that was the number again. The slick-
looking friend became. more interested
at this, and volunteered that the Swede
could not do it again, and that he would
bet any amount of money that he
couldn’t. I said nothing, and the
Swede said he never gambled,"but was
sure he could guess the correct num-
ber. ' . .

Our friend excused himself for a mo-
ment to run across to the drugstore;
but asked us to wait for him. Now
this fellow looked to me thoroughly like
a sharper, and when the Swede ex-
plained the dice. tripk to me during his
absence I could scarcely contain my-
self. '

“Ay don’t vantcn vin his money from
him,” said the SWede, “but I can do det-
ever time. Ay learn dot in N00 York.
Her been de vay todoot’.” '

You see one side of the dice added to .
. the one. just opposite will always make

seven, and the three added together will
always make 21. Much as 1 have
shaken dice this never occurred .to me.
When our friend returncd and offered
to wager $20 that the Swede could not
guess the number again I was forced to
turn my head-to conceal my laughter.
The Swede said he was sure he could,
and did not. want to win' the man’s

He courteously bought the cigars, and
bid us good morning.

The poor Swede, his heart was
broken. He had lost all the money he
had in the world and had a long jour-
ney before him. He said he had a
railroad ticket, but not even money
to provide himself with a meal. Al-l
though he caused me to lose ten dol- ‘
lars, I really felt sorry for him and
gave him another dollar to get some-
thing to eat. That seemed to cheer him
up a. little. He gave me his name and
the place where he was going to work, I

“To the letter.”

“That’s strange. You must. try it.
again. So your venture was fruit- '
less?”

“Well, no, it was not altogether fruit;
less. A rather peculiar circumstance
happened,” and I explained all that had
taken place from the time 1 left. the
depot. When I had finished Wilson
looked at me in blank amazement for,
a moment and then lapsed into a con-3
vulsive fit of laughter. 3

Now I don’t like being ridiculed and i
never did, and as I could not see where l
the joke came in insisted upon an ex-.
planation.

“Curio, my boy,” said Wilson, “you
are an object of pity.” That made me
mad, but I kept quiet. “How it is pos-
sible for, a man of your apparent in-
telligence to know so little I can’t con- _
ceivc.” '

I muttered something about people,
who were not fond of my style not be- .
ing compelled to cultivate me, but Wil- .
son only laughed. '

“I suppose you have been wonder-z
ing ever since how it happened.” i

To be perfectly honest I had, but Ix
wouldn‘t tell him so. . l

“You see, Curio, you ran up against

“That sounds well. but you haven’t;
told me yethow it happened.”

“Well. you see, while you were turned
away trying to conceal your laughter
from the slick man your Swedish friend '
was substituting dice made to order,

together Will not make sown.”

Perhaps Wilson was right, but tow
morrow I’m going to see if I can’t find
a confidence man that I’ll recognize as
soon as I meet hum—Chicago Tribune. '
