PROVOKING TO TRAIN ROBBERS.
Here Is an Invention That viii Inter
fere With Their Business.
IRON the Baltimore Sur

The death knell of another American
industry has been sounded and sounded
by a simple invention that has little of
originality about it save the purpose of
its application. The industry is train
robbing, and the invention is a new safe
lock that is expected to make the indus
try Improbable in the future and thus
compel its deyotees to give it up.
The problem is easy enough of solution
in the case of through packages between
large cities, which can be locked in a
safe that need not be opened until its des-
tination is reached. The difficulty IS to
provide for the safety Of valuable pack
ages for way stations which must be put
off here and there on the route.
These way pacl1ages are the prey of the
train rObber, and it is their safety that
must be provided for. Z. B. Hope, west
ern passenger agent of the Chesapeake
and Ohio railway, has a simple device
that seems to solve the problem. His
idea is to equip every safe with two
locks which interlOck with each other
and which he calls Clock No. 1" and
clock No 2" and to paint on the outside
of the safe the following:
NOTICE-In case of assault by robbers.
throw the combination of lock No. >. mis-
safe can then be opened ONLY by the agent
at the terminal station.
Lock No / can be either an ordinary
key lock or a combination lock. 1t is con
nected with lock No. by a small steel
bar which works in and out of the COM
bination of lock No 2 as the messenger
locks and unlocks No. l, the tumblers in
lock No. 2 when in their normal position
being always set at "open," and held in
that position by a simple mechanism to
prevent the jar of the train or an acct
dental knock throwing them out of posi-
tion and locking lock No. 2.
The messenger knows the combination
of Lock No l, or has key to unlock it,
but he does not know the combination of
lock No. 2, and if he once throws on the
combination of lock No 2, it is utterly i'm
possible for him to unlock and open the
safe, and the painted notice on the door
will apprise the train robbers Of the fact.
The number of men who are skilled
enough to blow open a safe quickly are
very few, and of that few the number
who would care to combine train robbing
with safe blowing are fewer still, and the
business having thus been made unprofit-
able for regular practitioners it is proba-
bic they would abandon it and seek some
other field of operation.
Tho likelihood of their killing the mes
senger in revenge for throwing on the
combination Of lock No 2 is not great.

important element in the atmosphere of
enjoyment that contributes to her sus-
tenance the season long
Notwithstanding she recognizes the
fact that the light fantastic toe must be
accorded a little freedom; that it must
be occasionally allowed to trip across
waxen floor of country ball room. That
is why one of conservative Newport s
latest doings was a dance where some
dainty toilettes showed themselyer for a
little space.
Almost every gown there was an ombre
Of gauze, of silk or of satin. Sometimes
a very palely tinted gauze was thrown
over satin of much deeper ombre tints
This made beautiful effect. Sometimes
the gowns were of mousseline-de-soie, of
delicate coloring, accordion-plaited, after
the manner of the favorite summer dance
gown. Sometimes they were of the IA

would be inuumerable ways Of devising

two often give such a satisfactory, broad
effect to narrow chest that we can lily
spare them. But the berthe will be
somewhat modified. 1t will be just as
broad at the shoulders; but the round
effect will be done away with. Hereafter
the berthe will always elOngate and mar
row itself, running down in a bretelle to
the belt, not full, unless its material be a
very thin one.

are needed to make a very serviceable
dance gown. Some beautiful velvet and
satin stripes, fine and of good quality,
make lovely reception gowns. 1 have
seen this material, of late, sold as low as
1926 yard. 1t is quite wide, and, there
fore, a gown of it is comparatively cheap;
for it will last so long. A dark stripe of
velvet is combined with a delicate, con-
trasting stripe of satin.
Since black and white is the fayorite
combination in early fall gowns, the early
fall hat must follow the same line Of
thought. The new fall models display a
good deal of the braided effect that was
so popular last winter White felt
worked over with thick white silk, is
braided over a shape and edged with a
roll of black velvet. Black wings. velvet
wings in black or white, small tips and
all the rest of the hat paraphernalia are
seen in plentiful profusiOn. There is but
little different about the fall hat 1t
seems to bend in quite as eccentric
a shape as did the summer hat, and is
caught up in about the same fashion Per
haps the trimming is a little lower and
quieter than it has been. Or, perhaps this

had crowned herself queen Of all with a
wreath of beautiful rosebuds, which
lay loosely over her curls. The
center bud was deep,
rich pink, and at each side they shaded
on into more delicate tinting, until the
ones near the back were all white, save
for a touch Of color at their hearts. The
single bud on her bosom matched the
browning bud of the wreath.

The Mystery of an Arizona Ruin.

u.
Arizona is plentifully sprinkled with
the ruins of strange habitations Most
Of them are constructed of concrete or
adobe, and the mystery about them is the
identity OF the people who designed them.
How they could be built is not a matter
of conjecture, as the materials are close
at hand. But there is one ruin. although
still in a good state of preservation,
which is mystery, no matter in what
light it is considered.
1t is in the Huachuca mountains. not far
from the military reservation, in a north
eaSterly direction. Nothing is known of
its origin, and the wonderful part is the
material OF which it is constructed 1t is
about 200 miles from the ocean and sur
rounded on all sides by hills of sand and
rocks covered with cacti. There is no
water for miles, except the excuses for
rivers tat run during the rainy season.
There is not even the suggestion of wa
ter and yet the house is built of sea-
shells laid in a sort Of cement. Where the
shells were obtained is mystery that
may never be solved. 1t does not seemipos-
sible that the builder of the house would
carry the material over hundreds of miles
OF desert when there were plenty of rocks
near by that would answer the purpose
just as well, even though they were NOT
so unique. The house is built in the shane
of the straw huts of the Pagago Indians.

and one over the door is of extraordinary

had not proceeded far when Miss Hamil-
ton, under full sail, came suddenly upon
him. The guard held out his hands much
after the fashion of men who seek to stop
runaway horses, but Miss Hamilton,
swerving neither to the right or the left,
smashed into the blue coat and Col Rice's
man bit the dust An Algerian named
Salad Rassin leaped into the street and
caught Miss Hamilton about the neck,
which insult was promptly avenged by a
swift kick which laid out the dusky son
OF the desert. AT the entrance of the
German village the enraged Miss Hamil-
ton suddenly turned and swept through
the passage. Frank p. johnson of Brock
port, n. Y, and Whitney j. Hill of Pea
body, Kas., had just purchased tickets
and had stepped into the entrance when
the angry bride rushed in. Miss Ham
iltOn did not stop, but rushed
full tilt against the two visitors.
Mr. Johnson, by great good luck, avoided
a vicious blow from the big
birds foot, but Mr.. Hill received a
wallop he will remember to his dying
day. 1t was q great sight to see the
walters and mattresses Ieaping over
chairs and tables to escape the big white
biped. Around the village she went, and
not discovering the object Of her search,
tore out the gate and started westward

about her right leg. She managed to

CHASE AFTER MR.. BLAINE.

The hunt was then taken up for Mr..
Blaine. Inquiry developed the fact that
he had been seen running toward Wash
ington Park an hour before. The two
cowboys galloped over the big playground,
and after half hours search discovered
the truant Mr.. Blaine lying contentedly
beneath a towering bush. The bird dis
covered his pursuers as quickly as he
himself was discovered. He arose to his
feet took a loDg1ook at the horsenen
and then shot across the open prairie like
the wind. Esquival and Hammet entered
into the sport with quite as much zest
as did Mr.. Blaine. They circled about the
field again and again, each time drawing
nearer and nearer to the runaway. 1t
was too late when Mr., Blaine realized the
meaning of the queer riding of his would
be captors. He was forced TO make a
straight run for it and the two horsemen
bore down upon him from opposite direc-
tons and We're within thirty feet of him
when their lariats went whizzing through
the sunshine. Esquival's moose caught
the left leg of the bird and Hammet's cut
over its head and eneircled itsneck Then
Mr.. Blaine was returned to his home in
disgrace. The chase was witnessed by
hundreds of highly excited people.
