Frances fairly tore the chain from heLeck ani3 handed It to the thug;. On. go away go down stairs; that's Where all the silver Ja," pleaded the 1H tl sirt. "I've given you all I have." But the man with the lantern kept his seat on the frtrl's bed. Once he bnt over as If he lutended W kiss her. -Th child saw the man's face could see that it was dark and dlrtv. She smelled whiskey on his breath and his hands were cold and clammy. Ths flrl re mained perfectly still. - Kor a second -thr tJUriftar ntdtatp4i Then he passed his hands over the cover, evidently t see that there was iM.uwiy cm in im oea. let .ins iittis tremblUiB irl did not scream for help. -, , Bus-pens Is Awf nU ' 'Oh, "would -the tnari nevr go," ths firl thought. It seemed to her that he bad teen there foe hours. She had tjvurctiy moved lnc she was awnkehed from Iwr sound ercep. The sugnena was terrible, should sbs call for help? Couldn't she awaken Arnold In some way?' Should she jump up and runt Was ther Tio way In the world- to get away from this man? Would he never s-o? Theie were some of the thoughts that flashed through her mind during the time that the burglar was in the room. And still his warning "If you scream, I'll km you" was uppermost in her brain. But scream she would, in spite of everything, she thought. And she had almost made up her mind to do so it waa her only means of escape. She was there in a burglar's power a big, dark, gruff fellow, nerved to crime with liquor and some one must come to her rescue. "A scream would warn her parents," she thought, "even if he did shoot her." And then then the man arose from the bed and began a further search of the room. He found a ring set with, an amethyst in the bureau drawer, also a gold cross and 4oekefc Th TnaiTTn The dark con tinued his work, flashing his lantern now and then. To the girl the flash' lng of the light seemed a relief at times and -then again seemed only a a warning of the danger that confront ed her. . , . Finally the man groping In' the dark started toward h bed again. . "Where are' you?" he . whispered. V Then there was a loud, cleaif scream a scream filled with all the horror of a frightened chiJJ. p ' Little Frances had taken' the chance and she won. The burglar fled down stairs and out into the darkness. Mr. and Mrs. Henny, sleeping; In .an adjoining room, were In their child's room in an instant Their first thought was that Frances had screamed during a terrible dream or nightmare. "It was a burglar but I'm safe," -she said. Telia Parents Story, And then In a disconnected way the girl told her parents the story of the awful half hour she had spent. It seemed an hour to her, she said. ' Tt was nearly S o'clock In the morning; and it was late in the day before the little girl fully recovered from the suspense and agony that she had undergone. The man gained an entrance to the Henny home by cutting out a panel of glass and then turning the window catch in the library. On the walls and floor as he went through the house he made chalk marks so that he could follow his trail out when ready to take bifdepajrture. Before going upstairs to Frances5 room, the burglar took a pair of opera glasses on which Mr. Henny's name is engraved, also 25 cents from a toy bank. There had been 7 S cents In the bank several days before, but it had been given -to the relief fund for the Italian earthquake sufferer by the Henny children. That and the Jewelry waa all the burglar secured. After daylight two rubber overshoes were found outside the house. ' - Today little Frances Henny is at the Portland academy as . usual. "A half hour with a hurarlar in a dark room is my experience the other morning," she tells her friends. And then she Bighs: "I never thought X would live to tell the tale." ,But she does, and furthermore, she screamed and won and escaped, in spite of the burglar's warning "If you scream, I'll kill you."

From 1800 to 1907 each year showed an Increase In the actual number of deaths, but during the year just ended the record shows a decrease as compared with 1907. The number of people dying in 1907 was 1860. Last year there were 19 deaths, a decrease of 71. - - . - - The death rate for 1908. as estimated by City Health OfflcerPohl is 6.81. The death, rate in 1907 wfia .8. In view of the fact that there has been ex hibited In some quarters. a disposition tr doubt the correctness of Dr. Pohl's calculations. It having been said that the death rate for the year lust Dast i really higher than that for l"of it is interesting to note that the actual num b.of'eath8 ln 1908 wa less than In To aay then, that the death rate has Increased lnffJlies that the population has decreased. Dr. Pohl does not re lieve that even the sourest pexsfmlat would say that there are fewer people here now than there were a year ago. QUEEN HELENA TO y FOUND ORPHANAGE Rome , Jan. 5.
