A man in South Hiram, Me-, sat

over the 800 TO the twirler for safe

An Ingenious burglar Alarm,

M. Brain, a Paris bootmaker, has
an ingenious fashion Of catching per-
sons who manifest an intention TO
appropriate any Of the goods exposed
for sale outside of his shop. When
ever he goes to his dinning room for
meals he ties the out of door selection
of boots and shoes to an electric wire,
which communicates with an alarm.
Recently an intending thief was
caught in the act of trying to annex
q pair Of "elastio sides" The alarm
sounded and the bootmaker was on
the alert in time to point out the
fast disappearing culprit to a police
man. NJ Brain lost several pairs Of
shoes before he tried the electric
bell arrangement. Chicago Herald.

SHOOT THE ROBBERS,

The proposition to arm railway op-
eratives is good one. The way to pre-
vent the robbery of express trains is to
shoot the robbers. Every train crew
should be taught that it is part of
their duty to shoot on sight any ma
rauder that attempts to board an en-
CINE or express car at night. The sue.
cess that is attending the train-ro bbiug
business recently is drawing quite
large number into the business, and the
only way to arrest the growth of the in
dustry is to cultivate the fashion of
shooting the miscreants who 20 into 1t.
The Burlington road has set an ex-
ample worthy of close imitation. The
probability is that had the fellows who
met their death at St. Joseph recently
dreamed that they were likely to meet
with the slightest resistance, no rope
could have been found strong enough to
lead them to the scene of the attempted
robbery. They had read of train rob-
berries, and the business seemed to offer
such large profits and such smooth sail
ing that they never thought OF serious
opposition to their demand for an I'M
conditional surrender. They expected
to blow open an express car with dy-
Mantle and to stand over the messenger
gun in hand, and compel him to open
the safe. This done, they could take
possession of its contents, fire few
shots at the windows of the coaches to
intimidate the passengers, and from
there on the worst danger they could
reasonably expect was a race with the
sheriff.
Such had been the history of nearly
all the train robbers they had ever read
o., and so they expected this expedi-
ton to terminate. They did not expect
to have to fight for the booty, or not
one of them could have been persuaded
to undertake Its capture. They had
no doubt of winning an easy victory.
But things turned out at variance with
the rosy experince of the train robbers
they had read about. Instead of enioy-
ing the terror of the passengers and
triumph over the trainmen, they met
with reception the wide publication
OF which will have a tendency to cool
the ardor of the gentry in all parts of
the country. Instead of sacks filled
with money, two of them got their
hides filled with lead, and the others
are in Jail. A clean sweep would have
been better. 1t is to be regretted that
a single member of the gang escaped,

THE GATES SWING OUT NOW.

THE GATES SWING OUT NOW.
The election of Democratic presi-
dent and congress last November and
the uncertainty and depression in bust
ness affairs since last March have de-
termined the immigration problem, at
least for some time to come.
The gates of Castle Garden swing in
ward, d" said ex-President Harrison, less
than twelve months ago, in describing
the unprecedented prosperity which the
country was then enjoying under Re-
publican administration and the invit-
ing character which it offered to the
foreigner.
Now the tide is ebbing.
For the first time in the history of
the nation, emigration has taken the
place of immigration. The Italians,
Hungarlans, Polanders, Scandina VANS
anu otner foreigners, who came to this
side simply to take advantage of the op-
portunity of earning American wages
rather than for the purpose of becom-
ing American citizens, are returning
home.
The absence of these visitors who are
now returning to their native soils will
relieve the pressure of unemployed la
borers during the coming winter, some
what.
If this were the only effect of Demo.
cratic ascendency it would be an un-
mixed blessing. But, unfortunately,
the same depression that sends these
aliens back to Europe affects those who
are permanent citizens of this country
and has thrown million of them out of
work.
