man again. and hence the invention OF
the celebrated time or chronOmctcr lock
This was the latest and greatest inVen-
tlon in the history of locks. The time
lock is attached TO the inside of a sale
or vault door, and, having no communi-
cation with the outside, is connected To
the bolt work on the door in such a man
ner that when the door is closed and
the bolts are thrown on by a handle or
knob, and the combination lock dials are
turned on, the. time lock goes into duty
Immediately, and no amount of work on
the door or knobs will unlock the door
until the time has arrived for which the
CLOCK was set has expired. The time
locks We're constructed so that they could
be wound to keep the door locked from
one 20 foTty-eight hours
The time locks were so made that there
were movements in each case. and il a
handspring or hairspring in one broke
or if from any cause one movement
failed to operate, the other would run

the lock and safe maker not content
with this step in advance of the burglar
have further perfected the locking ma
chimes by doing away altogether with
combination locks on the door and also
with spindles or arbors of any kind They
now make a safe or vault door of anv
thickness the banker desires, and on the
inside put on from twenty TO thirty mas
sive steel bolts. These steel bolts are cor
nected to what is termed an automatic de-
vice, which is in turn connected with a
time lock, having three movements and
can be set to run seventy-two hours. ANY
one movement will successfully opera te
the automatic device.
For instance a banker has a vault door
of solid steel. six inches thick. He wants
to go home at night. or in the afternoon
at, say o'clock; he wants the safe to
open, say, at o'clock the next morning.
This he accomplishes by simply setting
his automatic device with a wrench winds
up his time lock to No. II, which means
that the lock is to remain closed for sew
enteen hours He then shuts his vault
door and screws it in hard with wheel and
gear. When the door IS squeezed into its
proper place the automatic device shoots
the massive bolts, weighing several hun
dred pounds forward. upward down
ward, and backward. The time lock au-
tomatically locks them, aud your vault Is
securely locked for seventeen hours.
Thus we see that the safe maker Is far
ahead of the burglar, and he deserves
great credit for the ingenuity and ability
displayed in his inventions.

THERE are, in what may be
termed the immediate vicinity of
New York city, nearly five mil
lions of people who will some day
constitute one city. Many writer's
contend that an accomplishment of
this avowed purpose on the part of
New York will place her as city
so far beyond the aspiring Chicago
that she will never attempt to Sc
cure first place in the list of citjes,
but let New York rest in peace on
her high perch. That is delu-
sion. The five million mark has
no terrors for Chicago. Only a
question of two or three deca ades
and the Windy City will have
reached the goal. Her resour rces
are yet in their infancy while New

evidently, is disposed to take a
pessimist view of the census mat
ter. He characterizes the same as
"a political snap" taking the view
that the assessors could have taken
the census, and thus afforded a
means of putting "a few dollars
into the pockets of an occasional
Democrat" AS far as our knowl-
edge extends, in this part of the
State there has been no political
preferment. Men that come
within our acquaintance whom we
know to be dyed-in- -thewool D en-

have their commissions in their
possession. The Sentinel man
should try to deal fairly.

The Interstate park at Taylors
Falls is now a matter of consult lta-
ton. Gov. Clough has a good
committee appointed from this
State, and it is probable that the
badger governor has taken a sim
lar interest in the laudable work.
Citizens of Saltwater have kindly
consented to donate the land on the
Minnesota side. The Wisconsin
side is provided for by an act Of
the legislature which empowers
the commission to purchase the
site, leaving the matter of payment
to appropriations by the next leg

humane acts business always
creates a breeze. Ever since aid
was hurried forward to the suffer-

kick coming from some quarter.
Undoubtedly there have been some
who have not received a full COM
plement, but the attentions have
been of the very best on the part
of the liberal citizens who contrib
uted, and on the part of those who
distributed. A cessation of what

that a great and good work has
been performed for the unfortunate

THERE is certainly a defect in
the present methods of printing
laws which take effect on and after
their passage. The defect arises
in the fact that people do not be-
come conversant with the laws un-
til they are sent out, some of them,
as in the present year, a month or
six weeks after their enactments.
A provision should be made where
by every weekly newspaper in the
the State, should be furnished
weekly, with every act to which
the governors signature has been
attached. No better method pre-
sents itself of informing the people
throughout the State of what has
been done by their lawmakers.
Why some gifted member of the
last legislature did not introduce
something to reach this matter,
and thus win laurels for his noble
brow, surpasseth the understand
