A MAN IN THE ROOM.

1 awoke at midnight with a start. There was a man it. the room. The shutters were closed and tho window, as 1 li.ul ieft it, was lowered for a space of probably six inches or more. He must have come in, then, through the door of my bedroom, which adjoined the sitting room.

It had been a stormy night and the monotonous drip drop of tho remaining globules of rain came from the eaves in a mournful and irregular plashing. My senses at first were in a half haze—n drowsy and bewildered stnpor was what 1 found myself in as I first waked.

Gradually my mind became clearer. The room was intensely dark so dark, in fact, that the peculiar illusionary buzzing of tho silence sang in my ears. What was to be done? It was midnight and there was a man in tho room.

There is something so grisly—so awfully suggestive of murder—in this feelof a stranger's proximity to one at the .ead of night that experience alone can give it its true effect. So, too, there is a erv strange and as yet unsolved riddle in this knowU'lge of unseen human contiguity. You stand in a streetcar clinging to a strap. Somebody behind you wishes to advance, or needs more room. You may be reading a paper and probably have not noticed his approach, yet instinctively you step forward.

Or jierhaps you are standing at the entrance of somo one of the great buildings of the city conversing on matters of importance with a friend. Your mind is presumably intensely occupied, your eyes on your companion, your lips moving Suddenly you step aside some one brushes past, his shoes incased in rubbed, aiul turns tho corner without a sound certainly there was nothing that could be heard above the rumble and rattle of the numberless vehicles which fill the streets with their jarring and clangor.

Yet you knew this person wished to pass, and that you were possibly a little his way. Yuu ul neither seen, heard, nor touched him, but you were nevertheless aware of him.

Take it even in tho solitude of the country. Sitting on a fence in some lonely tield you are all at once apprised of the fact that a man is advancing toward you and is already quite close to you. Now, you have doubtless been day dreaming before this conviction came you, watching the sheep as they grazed quietly down near the river or marking the sleepy circles of some hawk's flight and miilaerial poises. You were deeply preoccupied, to be sure, and this man came across a plowed field where his boots crushed tho dry soil and passed along as noiselessly as the underground march of a mole.

But an indefinable current of perception—a wave of intuition—had warned ou of the nearness of a human being. Evervthing else was calculated to attract our eyes and enchain your mental faculties. However, yon turned immediately and saw him standing.-fhere smiling. lie had a message for you, Yet the weird message, the certainty of the approach of a human being, who sent that? Nay, then, I can not tell you this.

It was the same feeling that had rushed upon me like an avalanclio as I woke. It was midnight and there was a man in the room.

Past that hour, was it not? Let me consider, for the question of time may have jieculiar significance. It was 10 o'clock when I retired. At 10:30 the

]M)liceman

on the Ix-at had passed. His

club had rung sullenly on the stone coping, ami I recollect picturing him to myself as he passed—a sturdy, alert bluecoat, with pistol and staff peering into the alleys looking curiously at the occasional night lights that buraed here and there with a dim and uncanny flare whistling not infrequently yawning looking up at the stars, and at intervals communing with himself. It all seemed quite ludicrous, I remember, as I lay there, but the matter is hideously serious now. What would I not give to hear his "lixnist" spurn the dull pavement with his sonorous, challenging rap. There is something menacing in that sound at night to tho wrong doer. It says authoritatively: "Who goes there?"

If it is past midnight the patrolman will come again in an hour or so. Dentil o' my life'. Sixty minutes? Sixty minutes? Can I contain my patience that long, staring into the muffled darkness? And, indeed, what will this devil be doing meanwhile—this man in tho room?

No! the plan of waiting for the officer was not feasible. What if he did come by? Would not the burglar or assassin defer his operation until the coast was clear? Undoubtedly. Let mo reason this problem out carefully, even coldly. It is, let us sav, a matter of life or death. In the first place, I had been foolish enough to lay my revolver on the dresser, •which was twenty feet from the bed.

That could only

gained by a scramble

and a spring. Again—suppose the intruder had taken the weapon from its resting place and stood doubly armed, watching me as a cat would watch a mouse?

I cannot bring myself to believe that this would bo a sensible move. This dilemma must be faced and grappled with in a wise as well as a courageous manner. This wretch in my rofxn—his life is not worth as much to himself, to the

world or to humanity as mine, lie na» the advantage of weapons he is ou the qui vivo ho knows that 1 am awake as surely as 1 know that ho is in my bedchamber.

The stertorous pulling of a locomotive sounds far away. Those men on that engine now—they are covered with grime and soot they are risking their lives daily and nightly. Hut they are toilers. Wives and children they have, and with them the honor of women and the life of man is safe. If I were with them now out on the dreary, drizzling flats, with the moonlight straggling down on the pools by the track. I should certainly bo sjife. Hero I am surely in danger.

A largo wardrobe in the room gives out a crackling sound, as if the man had shifted his weight somewhere and tho change had caused the boatds in tho wardrobe to expand or contract. In the sitting room all at once some fragments if anthracite drop noisily down the feeder" of the tho base burning stove. The curtain flaps. Everything inanimate seems to lie on the lookout. On my hand a misty breath of night wind comes like the breath of a human being.

Action or inaction? And now, which is tho best kind of bravery? Is it the forlorn hope quality, which heeds not of danger, but hurries headlong to almost certain death? Or is it the cool and deliberate intent to carry out a purpose already carefully matured? Recklessness may be excused for example's sake, and true courage will do or die for a friend or a loved one's ]xril. But in a contest of the kind which will follow if I attempt violence against this nocturnal prowler the truest v.l'r is the deliberative and discreet kind.

I am broad awake now, and no excuse can be made for me if I yield to rash impulses against my better judgment. The situation is plain. The circle of contemplation is a small one.

As to the problem, it represents but three ini]ortnnt factors, anil they are as follows It is midnight—I am awakethere is a man in the room.

Although my ears had not caught tho sound of his entrance into my sleeping apartments I feel confident that he has been then.' but a few moments. I am of an exceedingly wakeful dis]wsition and the vicinity of any one in my room at night., or of even an animal, is almost immediately followed by my \vaking up.

The back door hail been securely fastened lie fore I went to bed, and tho windows of the house were too high to be reached except by means of a ladder. At the" front door a midnight marauder would have been too conspicuous. Besides the alley which led into two other byways afforded a dark and various mode of retreat in case of either hurried or leisurely flight. He must have entered by way of the back door. To cross the kitchen floor without arousing mo he must have walked either in his stocking feet or worn stockings over his shoes.

Now, I cannot say truthfully whether I nni what is commonly known as a brave man if you judge me by a certain standard. I have read of just such occurrences as this that 1 am experiencing, where men have leaped from their couches at dead of night, grappled with the thief and overpowered him. They were, we will say, brave men. Certainly they were reckless men. I admire their dash, but am not inclined to follow in their footsteps. They either did not think of or did not care for the questions of anus or advantage, but boldly risked their lives, regardless ot these differences.

I am. to lie perfectly frank, afraid to attempt this sort of an exploit. If this devil in my room, whom I hate with a deadly hatred, were unarmed then 1 would not hesitate to try conclusions with him, even in the darkness, reiving on my natural strength, grip, quickness !Uid the intensity of my anger at being awakened from an honest slumber to solve such a demoniacal puzzle. If by any possibility I should have found this fellow unprepared and could have killed him like a dog, without giving him the slightest opportunity, I would liavodone

instantly and without the least compunction. But the possibilities even of his venturing here at midnight unarmed are not to be thought of. Such a theory is against human experience, against reasoning, and is absolutely illogical. I refuse to entertain it.

To recur to the proposition of attacking a burglar in midnight darkness. It has sometimes proved a complete success, sometimes a partial one but often it has turned out a disastrous failure.

If you are wounded, and secure the burglar, you are a hero, and the intruder will doubtless be fitly punished. Mean while you suffer more or less pain, in convenience and trouble before yon can return to your business. However, '.h admiring comments of your friends are very sweet.

But supposing you were crippled for life. That is not pleasant to contemplate, is it? You are a liero, it is true, but cannot run, dance, skate, hunt and tho like. You are, we will venture-, not yet 30 years of age, and will live till .10. Twenty years or more of limping through life simply for an impulse

It will not do. Again, it might be death lingering or sudden. Will the fact that justice takes the life of the murderer give you any recompense? The seasons the green carpet of spring, the half blown roses of summer, autumn's mellowed glory, and the feathery signals of winter—these will come to you and find you all unresponsive-

Men and women you will heed not, for your feet shall have dipped in the tide of tho unknown, and your lips will be silent.

No this positively will not do. It is probably 1 o'clock at night. 1 am awake and vigilant. There Is a mau in the room, and he is anned.

Supposing, now, that I were anned. I have used and been familiar with firearms sij co I was a mere boy—accustomed to tho use of rifle, shot gun and revolver.

The revolver is necessarily the wea[on which appears iu these affrays between the burglar and tin householder. Now, ulthough I am not what is termed a "crack" shot with a revolver, it would be an easy thing for mo to put a !W cnlitier ball into a man if ho were sitting or standing thirty feet from me.

If I had revolver now, would it IKS advisable to begin operations? Let us see. This man is either sitting or standing in some comer of the room. He would not stand in the center of the room, for the tendency is to skulk where tho shadows lie deeiiest. Supposing my re

Xj. "W. otto.

Just the thing for Commencement.tvGo and

volver was In my nancl mm 1 urea a snoi. That would change tho aspect of this matter into an absolute question of life or dentil. The burglar would return tho shot. Ho would fire at the flash of my weapon jierhaps hold a dark lantern to one side and dispose of me at one or at tho most two shots.

As it is almost impossible to determine where a man is who is merely somewhere in your bedroom, I am led to conclude that promiscuous firing on the part of the occupant of the bed is not a wise action further, that it is suicidal.

This man in tho rixnu is doing one of two things. He either believes that 1 am fully awake and cognizant of his presence, or that I am restless without suspicion and may soon be again in dreamland.

If I adopt the first idea, he has his hand on his weapon ready at an instant's notice to fire. He may bo even anxious and a trifle startled. It is within the bounds of possibility that ho may even believe that I am similarly armed and watchful, and ho may entertain a sort of fear of mo. Ha, lin. If it were not so ghastly it might be ludicrous.

On the part of the second theory, if ho thinks me merely drowsy ho will wait for tho regular breathing that denotes sleep before ho stirs again. Failing to hear that he may proceed to stern measures—intimidation or worse. I have given up the idea of his being an assassin. is an illogical supposition, and the darkness shall not make me superstitious or childish.

What if I simply counterfeit sleep and let him go on with his scliemo of plundering? But I cannot sleep. As alert and cool :is I feel myself to be, this experience has made me wrought up and nervous. I wish it were light, or, failing that, I wish this prowler would make np his mind to do something. Tho darkness is alarming, but the knowledge that it envelops this wretch makes it tenfold more fearful. Look into a dark cave. It is not the mere gloom that makes it seem so awesome it is the thought that in this cave hides—what? You do not kuow, but observe yon rolling thunder cloud it is black, lowering and tremendous. Perhaps it is tornado charged. At least, what it may hold renders it more an object of fear than its niero outward form.

How doubly and quadruplv sickening, then, when we feel that the darkness surrounding us is hiding that most terrible of beasts, mail?

For as tho intelligence of man predominates over the craft of animals so does the ferocity of man surpass that of the tiger and shark.

I cannot go to sleep. This man must bo the first to make a move ou the chess board. Does he intend to wait? So will I—till the rumble of the early wagons shall resound along the paved street. Till the watchful stars liavo doffed their gray uniform and the faint, ashen dawn shall pry with tremulous fingers in the crevices of my window shutters.

But will he wait? Now that is a fallacious conjecture He must fulfill his object and depart. Ho must obtain something for the extreme risk taken. It is no light thing to come into a home on an errand of this nature, Slaying him under most circumstances would be perfectly justifiable even in the eyes of tho law. And in the eyes of the juror it would require extraordinary circumstances indeed to make you liable to punishment.

Besides, if convicted for burglary, the punishment is extremely severe in some states and under some statiites the death penalty may be given.

Therefore this man in my room will shortly commence operations. Where will he begin and how? Will lie first ascertain if I am asleep, or will he conclude that I am awake and proceed to the pleasing task of terrorizing me? And what, after all, will be his reward? I have no money, my watch is a key winder and a cheap one, and my other jewelry is of the plainest jxissible kind.

Why do not these fellows select a residence more likely to afford bettor opportunities for riches than my humble rooms? They usually do. Do they not always? Almost invariably.

It is long past midnight. I am awako. I appeal to logic and calm common sense. It is I, myse14 I um the man in the room. It was even so. I turned to my pillow and slept.—Ernest McGaffey in Chicago Times.
