New Way TO Kill Burglars.

Mr.. A. l.. Stimson, for some years man
ager of the Fidelity Safe Depository, has
made two inventions which are thought
likely to'he very useful N the construction
of commercial vaults
The first is an air chamber, either entire
or III sections, for drying and ventilating
vaults. the contents of which would other
wise suffer from dampness.
The last and most important is his chem
ical armor for bank vaults Air chambers
of thin metal, either entire or sectional for
shipment, line the interior of the vault on
every side and at the top and bottom, also
the door and the safe. These metallic cham.
bers are filed with long tubes of glass. and
then lead pipes containing alternately either
sulphuric acid or bi-cal Donate of soda IN
solution.
Iu breaking into the vault, on either side,
top or bottom, a dozen or more of these
fragile receptacles must necessarily be trac
tured, and it is SO arranged that the dis
lodged contents must run into the vault
and there, uniting in the trough receiving
them, form carbOnic acid gas. This gas ex-
pels the vital atmosphere from the floor up
wards, until the vault is full of the deadly
vap0r, and no oxygen is met. Ut course,
being heavier than the atmosphere, the
carbonic acid gas can not leave the vault
