Beware of Imita-
tons of our Six Step
Steel Flange made in
Cast Iron.

The Door Frames and Jams of these safes
are made of NJ LLEABLE ROLLED STEEL,
into six offsets or fiang,s, for which the Com
pany holds exclusive patent. The advantage
of our methods are as follows:
The thnness of the metal which connects
the outside box with the inside box, The
toughness ofthis metal which forms the door
frames and jams; the close fitting of the door
frame to the jamb; The position OF the bolt
work on the inner f1ange OF the door; The
round corners of the safe. All other safes
made i'm the United States have Cast Iron
door frames and jambs, which metal must be
strength, thus furnishing direct avenue for
the introduction of heat to the inside of the
safe, while, thick as IL is, IL Is constantly
cracking, especially when exposed TO fire,
owing to iii well-known briltleness.
BY the use of this thin steel, we have solved
the problem ofhow to make the front Of safe
as invulnerable to fire as its other walls. The
unequal contraction CT cast iron in cooling
renders il impossible to tit the door casting to
the jamb casting with eloseness and regulari
ty-a glaring evil which our system obviates
easy to keep both in order, while at the same
time they are far more difficult to be tambered
with when the safe is lock. The filling, by
this sy stem. begins at the extreme outside of
the door. while by the old SYSTEM OF placing
the lock- and boltwork Immediately under the
outer plate of the door, the heat was allowed
unobstructed about half through the door.
The fire-prooi filling is OF such nature that
the contents of u safe are surely protected
through any fire to which a burning building
can expose 1t. The round corners give double
the protection against the bursting of a safe
by heavy fall, AS the full strength of the
welded hoops Is thus preserved, while in safe
with square corners the rectangular bend in
the hoops is a constant source of weakness
and danger. These safes are in use through
out the length and breadth of our land, as
well as in the couBtries If the Eastern Hemis-
phcre; they have been everywhere exposed
to fires of all kinds incident to human expert
ence, but there has never been single case
where they have failed to protect their con-
tents against loss or damaI from heat hence
we do nor fear to assert tia they are the best
fire-prOof safes In use, and while they are fin
ished in ali their appointments with great
oroughness and beauty, we arc able: on ac-
count of gre at facilities for manufacturing,
to offer them at price so reasonable that we
think no one who has books. papers or valua-
bles to protect should he without one.I

SOCIAL AND RALL.

One OF the leading and most pleasant
social events of the season took place at
the EighthAvenue rink Wednesday, 1t
was the annual social and ball given by
the A. o. U. w. These entertainments
have come to be regular yearly occur
rences, and much pleasant antici
patton attends their approach,
and last night the expected
good time was fully realized. Brief
and fitting addresses were delivered on
various features of the order by Messrs
E. NJ. Forde, j. r Graham and DR.. ]. j
Wright. After this interesting part of
the program came the elegant banquet,
which was served from beautifully sup
piled tables in the west part OF the
hall. The preparations for the feast
were elaborate 10 every particu-
lar, and those having hand
in them must have been graft
fed with the destruction aud havoc
made among the lands. After this
pleasant repsst had been served the II X
orchestra tuned their instruments aud
discoursed lively airs for the dancing
which followed, and which was merrily
continued until far into the night. Aside
from addresses, usic, feRsting and dane
ing, the affair was g gratifying social sue

flew by. The A. o. U. W. are to be

Balloons That Fight Like Drilled Sol
6iers

The country of the Upper Nile was,
par excellence, the wonderland of the
Roman world, it is still the grandest
outdoor museum of natural curiosities.
Zoologically there is no more density
populated country. All the wild beasts
and birds, made homeless by the dew
astation of North Africa, seem to have
taken refuge in the Nubian highlands.
In the terrace-land of the Nubian and
Abyssinian Alps there roam herds of
elephants, buffalos, wild goats, wild
sheep, and fourteen or fifteen different
species of antelopes. Further below
the hippotamus and white rhinoceros
haunt the river swamps. Professor
Blanford enumerates go species of
water birds. With these harmless set
tiers less desirable guests have crowded
in, the spotted hyena, the jackal, the
black and yellow lion, four species of
smaller cats, wild dogs and, above all,
the cynocephalus, the willy and mis-
chievous baboon. Three varieties of
these Darwinian pets inhabit the rocks
of Southern Nubia; the little babuin,
the cynocephalus proper, and the celia
da, or mantle baboon, q fierce and pow
erful fellow, whose shaggy name pro-
tects his body like a cloak, and enables
him to brave the climate of the upper
highlands. Professors Kupple and
Hotton agree that n troop of these
brutes, in ravaging a corn-field, will
not only hold their ground against all
corners, but on the slightest provoca-
ton take the offensive in a way not
likely TO be forgotten by the unarmod
natives Dogs have no chance what
ever against full-grown baboon. The
old males do not wait to be attacked,
but charge them at once with an ener-
~ and skill and cooperation that
would do credit to troop of well-irill-
ed soldiers. The hyrax, a queer pachy-
derm, allied to the European badger,
coinhabits the rocks with alternating
marmOt, and the coast jungles swarm
with wild hogs that multiply undis-
