Two burglars found In a residence
in Flatbush. N. Y.. In tho early morn
ing were cornered aa they made an at
tempt to escape. Tho son of the house
holder grappled with one ot the house
breakers, who at once shot. The bul
let grazed the young man and struck
his mother. The burglar wrenched
himself free and with his companion
ran from the house, one of tho two be
ing shot by the son as they made their
escape. The mother Is dead, one
housebreaker Is In the hospital and
the other In Jail. The one who has con
fessed that he killed the woman and
who knows that his life will be re
quired by the law In punishment has
made tho following statement: "Mr.
8taber and his sons are tho ones to
be blamed tor this killing. They were
fools to try to stop such men as we
when all we wanted was to make a
get-away. If we had been left alone
there would not have been any shoot
ing." The impulse of the average man
Is to defend bis home as did young
Staber. It It were otherwise burglary
would be more popular as a means ot
livelihood than It la, but there Is truth
In the housebreaker's statement. Tho
courage of the man who, unarmed,
attacks Intruders whom he must know
to be armed and desperate cannot be
questioned, but frequently his discre
tion can. A household awakened to
the knowledge that burglars are pack
ing off their valuables cannot be ex
pected to remember all the advice which
should govern In such emergencies, but
many tlmea It will be profitable to re
member that an Indiscreet attack may
cause more serious loss than that ot
property. The "professional" burglar.
If discovered, has but one desire. That
Is to make his escape with as much
ot the property as he can carry with
out delaying his departure and with
out hampering his movements, and to
make it with as little trouble as pos
sible. He will not add willingly to the
aerlousncaa ot bla offense by shooting.
This is not because he 'Is a humani
tarian but because he has no wish to
Increase bis crimes and the penalties.
His chanc.es of escape diminish as the
gravity of bis offense Increases. The
householder's courage will not be ques
tioned If be protects his property
without exposing himself uselessly In
an unequal conflict.

It was of the drat Importance that
Monsieur Duponceau should krp himself
well hid, and to this end he spent hla days
In the cabin ot the Ship, coming out only
when night had fallen, and then most cir
cumspectly. There were not the tame rea
sons for concealmsnt In my rase, howtvr,
so I boarded the Bhtp soon after I left
Bur tarn that day and aet up my easel as
an excuse In case any chance obrws
should took across the bench and are me.
This also gave dm the chance to keep a
careful lookout.
It was pcrhap -I o'clock when, as I
eat on the gunwale ot the Ship, sunning
myself and leisurely suioklng a pipe, 1
reiw Charles approaching with a pitcher
and claws.
"The afternoon being so warm, I
thought that you and the other gentleman
might be wanting something cool to drink.
sir," he explained, when he had come
on board: "so I nude a pitcher of claret
cup."
"Much obliged to yovi, Charles. Take it
down to the cabin, where It II keep cool
until wt want It,'
Charles disappeared with the. clinking
pitcher. When he returned I spoke again.
"What Is Monsieur lHiponeeau dclngl"
"He Is lying In oue of the bunks, sir,
with hts eyes wide open, ami when he
sees me, he says, sort of pleasant-like,
'You're trying to mnk dm think I'm lirk
In I'aree, but unfortunately the setting
Isn't the urn!"
"I don't expect to be much at liome for
some time. Charlr. I'm going to help
Monsieur Duponceau here. We may need
you suddenly, to keep an eye on the
broken mast, and it you see a lamp or a
flag come over at once, Otherwise, keep
mum."
"Yes, Mr. Felix. I've Ix-on pestered all
day with some of them skulking fellows
that wants to know my business. May I
land 'em one If they Interfere
"You man land 'em one whenever you
feel like It; only, land so hard that there
won't be any comeback."
"Yes. I will, sir;" and Charles made
so bold as to grin, I could see that tin
spirit of flgbt was taking bold of him
also.
I went back to my pip and my drowy
survey of the sea". There was little wind,
ami the oily rollers swept calmly In wllh
a curiously machine-like rhythm. I'ar
out lb funnel of a south-bound steamer
sent a black ribbon across the sky; to the
west of the Shifting Shoal a sloop was
lying to, waiting for the evening breeze.
I half doted, thinking what a peaceful
scene It was.
Half an hour later I beard Duponceau
call my name from the cabin stairs.
"It's getting Intolerably warm down
here: might It not be possible for me to
come on deck If I kept In the shadow ot
the gunwale)'
I looked the situation over, and decid
ed that no one could poailbly see a man
who hid at the skin of the ship, keeping
low down by tha rail. I advised Dupon
ceau of this, and then told hi in the mo
ment, th beach being clear, he might dart
from the hatchway, and scurry aero to
shelter. This h did, and, with a algh
of thankfulness at having reached fresh
outer air, he stretched himself in the
shadow, and I eat opposite, facing him
and watching the shore.
"I've been sleeping, Duponceau said,
'to that I could stand watch to-nlgbt.
What a beautiful world! But It'a not
like France; nothing is like France, And
o think I may not see It again I"
"Why?" I asked.
"Because " He Imitated. "Because
I have eAemle who would shut me away
from the sea and the sky and tGa sun,
and so I have to come to some lonely cor

frankness of the man cleared away all
barriers.
Huddeuty looking up, I caught sight of
Barbara coming toward us by the path
behind the cliff. Hhe carried a package
under her arm. As I watched her descend
carefully, I saw the two men that I had
met In the morning come out of the pine
and approach her. As alio saw them ap
pear, Barbara involuntarily glanced over
to the Khlp, and the men Instantly turn
ed their eye In (ha Mine direction, t.nd
so caught tight of me,
"Hit still and keep -very low," I whis
pered to Duponceau, under cover of my
pipe.
Barbara took a step forward.
"Not so font. Where aro jou going)"
demanded the surly faced chap.
"I am going where I choose," she an
awered, and took another step.
"You're not going out to that fihlp,"
he stated. 'There' some one hiding here
we mean to find."
'I caught his words and Jumped to my
feet.

'Well,1 said I, "suppose "
"Come on," said the leader to Bar
bara I "you were very anxious before."
II sUpped forward.
"Hold op!" I cried, pretending to get
angry. "I didn't k you to com over
here. It happens that I'm painting, and
don't wish to lx disturb!,"
The other man laughtd. "We won't

I (.wild scarcely keep Duponceau
crouching longer; I could feel that hit
linger were Itching for one of his re
volvers, "Stop!" called a olce from the cliff,
and I saw Rodney Isllp standing titer.
He took In at a lhh that Barbara waa
In trouble, and ramo leaping to hrr nld.
"What the devil's this) Take jour hand
away I" and h raited his walking-slick In
the man's face. The latter, startled at
Nllp's violence, dropped Barbara's arm
and fell lurk.
"Now, what do you fellows want here)"
demsndnl Itllp. "I've a mind to thrash
you both for touching a lady."
"We're going nu hoard that lal," said
the man; then h Imitated. "Od we'll

"Yes," said (he leader, his luunMence

Rodney nud h squared. Th fight
would be two lo one; Barbara waa trem

leveled pistol, "If It'a com to lighting,
we'll all be In the light. Isllp, bring
Miss (Iraham on th boat. There' a bul
let waiting for th man who stop you."
Th men fell back, hesitating, and seis
ing advantage of th tnomtnt, Rodney
took Barbara'a hand and Id her over
th causeway. They cam up the Udder
and on board.
"That's all!" I cried to th men on
shore, "You can gel"
I hid th drop on thrm, and their
hands did not vru swk their pocket as
they turned and wnt Into tha woods.
But I knew that they were as sure ot
Duponceau'a presence as It Ibey hsd -n
him on (ward.
"Well," said Isllp, aa be aaw th
strange flgur of the Frenchman hidden
txhlnd th bulwark, "litre's a pretty ket
tle of fish I Ho there It a mystery, and
we're carrying runs,"
"My dear lady," aald Duponceau, ris
ing, "I shall never forgive myself for
causing you such distress,"
But Barbara wa not distressed; In
stead, ah looked very much pleased.
I motioned Duponceau to go below to
th cabin, and tliw other followed him
tlier. 1 sat at the top of tb steps,
where I could both Join In the conversa
tion and watch the ahore.
Barbara placed her inckage on the ta
bic. "I thought I waa only bringing you
provisions," said she, "but Instead I've
brought you a recruit. Mr. Isllp, this Is
Monsieur Duponceau," and she added
lightly, "th pirate of Alastalr."
Isllp shook hands. "Ko you're In on
this, too, Aro you, flelden)" he called up
to in. "All arrayed against I lis blood

"I pledge in) self In the defense of Mon

she cried. "Drink with inol"
Wo drained our glasses.
"That's the oath of fidelity," alio said,
looking at Isllp and me, and I think alio
knew she could trust us both to the end
of the adventure,
The aim waa dropping low, and Bar
bara prepared to leave the Hhlp. Itllp
started to Join her,
"No," she saldi "I'd rather go alone.
No one will stop me now. You must stay
