Ho wished to bo of eomo help and probably thought ho could assist in removing tho old lady from tho building. But she did not want to bo removed. At least she did not want to bo taken down tho ladder. Tho policeman, who had just come up the stairs, expostulated with her and tried to persuado horto intrust horsolf to the fireman and bo taken down tho ladder. Tho old lady shook bar hoad. 8 ho didn't want to go down tho loader. Tho firoirmn uBed his oloquonco, too, Thero was no dangor in getting down tho laddor.

But no t tho nice old lady calmly refused to bo rosouod by means of the ladder. The policeman chimed in with his cloquont appeals. Tho fireman astride the window sill reiterated his. All tho arguments thoy could think of they brought to bear. But they could not couviuco the old lady, who hung back and shook her white-haired head I with renewed resolution. tM VlnllUN ABTMDB TI1E WINDOW BILL. It was rathor a comical sight. Then thero was really no firo. Plenty of smoko, and a daugorous air of tilings being in flomos, but really nothing worso going on than the olouds of smoko that tho burning fat Bont ou. when tho sorvant girl had spilt it into tho raugo in the kitchen. Thou the police man, gesticulating and talking to tho old lady, trying to prevail on hor to be rescued, and quite forgetful of the fact that sho could walk down the stairs which ho had just como up, and get comfortably and safoly down to tho stroot in that way without any need of the laddor. Then tho firoman on tho ladder and tho window-sill, eager to take tho old lady down tho laddor and score a rescuo, gontly pulling at hor and trying to coax her to como down With him. And tho citizen, mid-way up the ladder, hanging on to it with his face upturned, not knowing what to do, having nothing to do, and simply sticking there as on adjunot to the relief party. Finally, tho rospoctable, serene old lady, with her whito hair, persistently refusing the aid that was offered, and holding baok, and pulling away from tho policeman and the fire man It was certainly a littlo amusing. A CITIZEN IULT WAT OP THE XUSDEB. At last the foreman, who had taken in the thing pretty woll, came to the relief of the old lndv and rescued her from the siego she was undorgoing. He sont up ono of tho mon to toll tho old lady to come down tho stairs, that thero was tory littlo dangor.aud thomun would accompany hor. Also, to tell tho men not to bothor tho old lady by trying to get Iter down tho ladder. It only took auother moment for the man to roach the lady, and she at once disappeared from tho window and alter a minute or two emorged from tho door with a sigh of relief, giving her dross a little shake as if to get the emoko out of it, and drying her eyos with her handkerchief, to brush away the water which the smoke had drawn from them. The citizen regretfully climbed down the ladder, tho firoman, seeing there was nobody to be found in the room, followod suit, and tho policeman toddled down the stairs as be had ascended thorn. No harm had been done to the old lady, beyond being worried by the prospect of having to doscend to the street over the lad der, which sho was disinclined to do, as she had very clearly shown. It was only a little indiscreet zeal on the part of the would-bo resouers, and really was to their credit. Thoy knew the old lady could be brought down the ladder with safety, and it seemed the piofesslonal way of getting her out of the smoky room. It was not as bad as to be misled by the ana to stops about In o room tmder the fifi-' pression that a human creature was there and had to bo relieved. That bos somoiimes happened and real danger has been encoun tered. It is always good to havo a mlstako made, if any is mode at all, on the sldo whloh shows discipline and a wish to do one's duty rather than on the aids whloh would indioate negleot or too easy a way of settling a point. When they are mads thay are generally on that side. This should redound to the credit of tho dopartmont and its willing, activo members. RAZ01MI0NINGA FINE AET.

The notions of on elderly couple evidently from tho country in n. Third avenue elevated road car this morning woro tho souroo of omusomont to the othor passengers. Tho pair wore first brought into prominent notice at Twenty-third street, where they were awaiting the train's arrival. When it stopped thoy found themselves midway be tween two car gates. After casting a rapid glanoo up and down tho platform, the old man concluded that tho furthor gate from him was tho most desirable entrance, and shouting " This way, Mar," he made a wild rush in its direction, the tails of his duster flying in the air, a brand-new grip-sack surg ing in his bona and " Mar '' following In close pursuit. A broad smilo spread over his face as he entered the car, boing evidently under the impression that ho had done something re markably olever in getting aboard bo quickly. 'Ihe couple seated themselves in tho centre of tho car, " Par " depositing his valise and umbrella on tho seat in front " so 'b to be handy when we get out," as he explained to his wifo. The ride was fraught with great pleasure to the old lady, who was continually calling "Par's" attention to objects of interest in the street. Evory horse car that was passed was an apt illustration to hor of tho superiority of steam travol. " Par," however, was plainly nervous, and kept his ear stralnod to catch the nomos of tho stations, which the guard shouted in the customary Volauilk. Finally ho left his seut, and, planting himself boside tho door.waited until the uoxt station was reached. When tho guard emitted his usual whoop " Par " seized him by the arm and inquired what tho station was. " Fifty-third street " was the answer. Thanking him effusivelv, " Par" resumed his Beat near the door, and as the guard called out the stations which he did intelligibly, out of regard for tho rustio oouplo " Par " courteously thanked him. At Sovcnty-sixth suoet he bado "tfar" bring the things and sit boside him, Baying 1 " You know, John told us to get out at Eighty-ninth street, and I reckon wo'rs near there now, and we want to be ready to jump right out. 'cause these cars don'i wait no time at all." " Eighty-ninth street," called the guard a few minutes later, and before the train had arrived at the station the couple had rushed to tho platform and "Par" had started to open the gate, only to be repulsed by the guard. When they finally managed to get out, the pent-up feelings of the passengers found vent in a roar of laughtor.
