Grover Cleveland Has Disgraced the
American Name

WASHINGTON, Feb. 5.-The Hawaiian
debate again occupied the attention of the
House to-day, a night session being held
TO permit speeches by those who desired to
talk, but who otherwise would not have
had an opportunity on account of the lin
tied time allowed. The debate is attract
ing much less attention in the House than
was anticipated. This is perhaps partly
due to the abandonment of the policy of
restoration by the administration, and
partly to the fact that the long tariff debate
has surfeited the House. The principal
speeches to-day were made by johnson of
Indiana, Boutelle, Patterson of Tennessee
and Black of Illinois. The debate was

GUARDING AGAINST BURGLARS.
Recent improvements Made In the Con-
struction of Vaults and Vault Doors.

The most vulnerab BILE part of vault
now is the edge of the door. 1t is al
most impossible to obtain an absolute
~ tight joint, one which will be i'm
pervious to liquid explosives. The old
method Of attack was by powder blown
into the crack OF the vault door. As
the construction of these doors became
more perfect this was made impracti-
cable. Then, says the Washington
Star. the burglar turned his attention
to other explosives and to-day he uses
nitroglycerine. Nitroglycerine when
warm runs as freely as water. If the
crack OF door is not absolutely tight
the nitroglycerine will find some small
lodging place in it. When exploded it
rips of the door, tears off it's outer lay
ers or opens a space where 2 larger
charge OF explosive can be used. If the
joint is too well fitted 20 permit the
use of nitroglycerine and the vault is
IN an isolated place where powerful
explosives can be used, dynamite
is laid against q weak spot and
makes an opening or weakens the
walls or door SO that tools or
other explosives can DE used to ad-
vantage. With guarantee of COM
parative freedom for operation set of
burglars can enter a modern vault in
one to eight hours. The shortest
process is usually by the use OF ex-
plosives, and it has been found that
the high explosives are singularly
local in effect and produce very little
sound. Hammer and sledge are often
used, though burglars prefer boring,
with the use OF blow pipe to draw
the temper OF the steel attacked. But
the modern construction renders this
sometimes extremely difficult because
of the high conductivity of iron and
the close contact of the cold steel
adjacent Burglars seldom attempt to
make holes of more than an inch in
diameter, and the heat from the small
fame which can be introduced through
such a hole Is quickly dissipated.
Sometimes the burglar bores through
the soft metal and breaks the inter-
vening sheets Of hard metal with the
blows of a hammer, removing the
metal piecemesL 1t is estimated that
an expert with finely tempered tools
will work through an inch of vaul.
wall in an hour II sometimes hap
pens, though, that an expert burglar
abandons a job after penetrating the
outer LAYER of steel because his poorly
tempered tools were all duiled in the
attempt

Sayings OF Five Centuries ago which Are

books. and it is from his version the
selections are made.

the mob numbered 5000.
Brunesu was awake when the officer
entered his cell TO tell him il was time TO
prepare for the execution. When he was
dressed, the condemned man heard mass
and received communion. He prayed for
the pardon of God and man for any faults
he might have committed, and also asked
that the clergy might pardon him for
