City Marshal Drake is in favor OF

such an organization was in existence
the many burglaries that have OF late
happened in the State would not have

OF them know that State police force
is in Maine they will shun the state to
remarkable extent My idea OF such
force is this: Let the Legislature
choose chief and have him appoint
agents in every county in the state.
making Is in all Whenever robbery
occures, let the detective in the county
with the aid of the local officers chase
the guilty parties from one town to
another and place them in the tolls.
Then it can readily be determined
whether the job is done by local or pro-
fessional gangs. Burglars i'm this part
OF the State have been very frequent
of late and it is hard work TO appre-
bend the parties. / hope that at the

 As a matter of fact, the method pur- sued by irresponsible bidders differed i'll no essential particular from that fol- lowed by the Morgan and the Stewart syndicates.
 For example, Pierpont Morgan in bidding for the whole issue had previ- ously made himself the representative of others who were prepared to furnish the gold, either all at once or ill the in stallments required by the treasury cir cular Now that about $33, 900, 900 has been allotted to Mr. Morgan, he will promptly dispose of his option in almost exactly the same manner as have the irresponsible adventurers who have sue ceeded in procuring small allotments Perhaps it will be at an even higher figure.
 The only difference is that Morgan was dealing with an absolute certainty and with a complete sense of responsl. bility.
 But it all illustrates what gigantic speculation this last sale of United States bonds has been. New York Re corder.

ANOTHER GREAT DISCOVERY
The Eye Enabled to See Anything Tha,
 Roentgen Rays Can Pierce.

1no Eye EnaDISu to Seo AhyAhAuB AAa'
 ROentgen Rays Can Pierce.
 A most remarkable discovery has been made, according to dispatch from Rome. in connection with the investiga- tion of Professor Roentgen's s new force in photography. Professor Salyioni ot Perugia read a paper before the Rome Medical academy on Saturday, in which he describes an optical instrument of his invention which enables the human eye, by means of the Roentgen rays, to see through anything which those rays can penetrate. It is said that Professor Sal Yioni produced his wonderful invention, and by its means physicians present were enabled to see the contents of a closed aluminium box.
 Unfortunately no explanation is given of the means used to make the hitherto invisible rays perceptible by mans s optic nerve.
 A London photographer has found that q convenient substitute for a Crookes tube is an ordinary incandescent electric lamp, i'll which the filament has beer broken. This improvised Crookes tube and an ordinary house to house electric light current will enable any photog. rapher to make Roentgen photographs on small scale. New York Sun Spe. cial Cable Dispatch
