Hunting
Cicero's Villa
By WILLIAM CHANDLER
I wus very green when I ^
Italy-that is, about lta,y America
used to goiug anywhere in
without thought of injury unless la*
nt night in certain parts of great cltlea
so I supposed I would be as safe in
itulv I have always been fond of
' walking and when in Rome instead
I of going about nuiong the environs in
a trolley or other vehicle I tramped.
* A man may walk all over Italy and
I not be injured, but there are certain
chances that he will be robbed or mur
I dered or kidnaped.
1 was bunting for one of the many
ruins of Cicero's villa. The»
ltnlv is lite what General hashing
ton's body servant was half a centui?
n.r0. The old negro expired every few
vears until he got beyond a possible
i W-then took his final leave. 1 had
1 iiea'rd of one of Cicero's dwellings be
| yond the Campagna in a southeasterly
direction ami resolved to visit It.
hrntcd all day. finally finding a few
SJTJ which might have once been
! ' rt of n villa or a wail inclosing a
I naVture. It was too late to return to
IMiue that night, so I looked about me
, P,;l> e to spend the night. Seeing
]„, .. on a hill m-ar by, I went there
ua f"';: d a stone structure that might
! imt have been a villa, but was now
I occupied by the lowest grade of ltal
i 'Twas told by a surly Italian man
; th,t 1 couldn't stay tbere-they bad no
room to spare. This surpris.nl me. for
• her were evidently %ery poor, and
on» of this class would usually sleep
out in the i old himself for a few lire.
I asked if there was any conveyance
at band, and when be said no I told
|,im ihat 1 was going to stay in the
l-oi'so whi ther uiade welcome or not.
'' ' The man. a hag and a younger worn
;m consulted angrily in Italian wit*
ncU otJier. Not understanding their
Hm* i did not kuow wbat tbey
, l.ut filially they consented to let
me remain. They gave me some black
bread-all they had for supper-aud l
smoked before going ,to bed. Two
mo'i? men tame in wbfle I was eating
..„d on seeing me looked very much
liis'Tun'1 1. it occurred to me that U
tUcv v islied to murder me they would
lu> i>,. ^ed to have me stay with them.
Cos: .■.lucntly I was in no danger. But
I could not make out why they con
sidered me an intruder.
On being shown to uiy room, not be
ing pleased with the looks of the bed,
I spread niv overcoat on it and lay
„ the coat without undressing.
1 lmdn'r lain there long before 1 heard
a tappmg ou the wall beside me. I
^ i long in understanding that
some one was rapping by the tele«Lap^
Hie lint the language was not bng
! tish' 1 had picked up the telegraph
' ode some years before while station
n~ent on a railroad, but I knew no
other language than English. 1 "nder
... „.a f,.w words of French and knew
t. it the rapper was talking in th
I language. I concluded to try English
i intf asked who was rapping.
\ replv came in English, mixed with
! a little French. The person first ask
i ed me who 1 was and on my ref1?11)*
♦hnt I was au American, stopping In
hll„s.. f >r the night, rapped back
that he was a French amateur ar
,'liat'oiogist, that be bad been hunting
to Cicero's villa and that while doing
I so' bad been surrounded by several
' men. brought to the house and held for
ransom. He had sent to Romti i for
I 10,000 lire ($2,000) and was awaiting
! the issue.
It was plain to me now why I was
' not wanted in the house. The rascals
I didn't care to tackle another man. 1
made up my mind that they were not
regular bandits—only a few persons
who wore used to the criminal meth
| ods of the country. Having a loaded
revolver, I began to think up a plan
l>y which I might get the prisoner out
j of their clutches. I was not a prison
er myself, for on reaching my room I
made bold to take the key out of the
i door before I could be locked in.
! 1 asked my correspondent If he had
a weapon and was told that it had
! been taken from him. I then asked
him about the lock on his door, and he
said it was screwed on the Inside. lie
bad an implement in his pocket that
he u eel for stone scrcping purposes
which would do for a screwdriver.
After more talk I told him that if Le
would take the lock oil: his door and
come out I would join him and we
would attempt an exit at the point of
my pistol. He seemed fearful of our
both being killed, but I convinced him
thai we were not in the hands of real
bandits, and he finally consented.
He removed the lock without much
dil&culty aud came out to meet me in
the hall, which was unlighted. He had
found a poker in his room beside the
fireplace and had armed himself with
I it. I led the way toward a dimly light
ed apartment ou tiptoe and saw a man
j asleep with a carbine In his hand. 1
j whispered to the Frenchman that
while I clasped my hands over the
fellow's mouth he should seize his
vnn. He agreed to this, and we got
the man's pun without his making the
slightest noise. With my pistol on his
temple, I drove him to the door and
motioned hi:n to unlock it He did so,
and the prisoner and I passed out.
We sptnt the night under the stars
and in the morning got back to Rome.
As soon as possible a body of cara
bineers went to the place we had left,
| but found it deserted.

LEAD PENCILS

threatening increase in the prices of

The devastation of the American
cedar and cynrus forests, together
with areas now set aside to which

BURIED UNDER PAPERS.
Between Litter and Fires Ufa In D»
Quincey's Home Was Lively.
De Quincey's greatest extravagance
grew out of the uiorbid value he set
upon papers and their not being dis
turbed. lie was in the habit of accu
mulating these until, in liis own
words, he was "snowed up." which
meant that when matters reached such
an extremity that there was not a
square Inch of room on the table to
set a cup upon and no possibility of
making his bed for the weight of pa
pers gathered there; no chair which
could be used for its legitimate pur
pose, and the track from the door to
the fireplace, always kept open until
the last, was completely obliterated so
that he had not even place iu which
to set his foot—then De Quincey iocK
ed the door upon his prtper treasures
and turned elsewhere. At his death
there were ut ieast a half dozen such
places "papered" by him and being
maintained at no small expense.
Such a thing had been experienced
its his actually "papering" his family
out of house, but in later years his
daughters learned bow to guard
against such a contingency.
De Qulncey usual!}' spent the even
ings with bis family, who looted for
ward to tlieso hours with much pleas
ure. Upon the arrival of the newspa
per be would reuder the news in his
own quaint manner, questioning Lbo
various members of the group about
him and Illuminating the various sub
jects touched upon with a wealth of
memories, good stories or human ex
periences until the happiest Dow of
real conversation sprang from the cir
cumstances of the moment
He was not a tranquilislng compan
ion for nervous persons to live with,
as those nights were the exceptions on
which he did not set Ore to something.
It was a common occurrence for one
of his daughters to look up from her
work and to say casually, "Papa, your
hair la on fire!" to which he would re
spond casually, "Is it, my love?" and a
hand rubbing out the blaze was all the
notice taken.
On one occasion, when the maid
rushed in to announce that Mr. de
Qulncey's room was on fire, he hasten
ed to the rescue of bis already "snow
ed up" apartment, refusing all sug
gestions that water be poured upon his
treasured papers. Armed with a
heavy rug he disappeared into the
burning room determined to conquer
without water or perish in the attempt,
while the members of his affrighted
household trembled for his safety out
side the door, locked to prevent the
abhorred water from being- poured in.
Presently, after occasional bursts of
Bmoke and a very strong smell of fire.
| all were assured that the danger was
over, the victor emerged triumphant
ly from his fight with tho dames, and
the dreaded element having been sub
dued for the evening all retired in a
state of thankfulness.—From Caroline
Ticknor'a "Hawthorne and His Pub
lisher."

The carnival season a< Nice, the

which are a feature of the occasion,
some huge bouquets o£ blossoms,
and some so mirth provoking that
their progress through tap streets
is marked by waves oC laughter.
One of the most curious, of those
funny lloats at the last ci'inival is
shown in an illustration in me May
Popular Mechanics Magazine. It
represents an unusual collision be
tween a street >■ ir and a horse cart,
with tha horse and cart poised up
on the roof of the car, the fright

plunging to dis- n^ugo liiaself from

end of the car, as if to release the
horse. The horse is staffed, the
figures of the passengers mostly
"dummies'' from some clr.Uiin0 store
