The modern burglar is scientist and

era in safe breaking and other branches
Of the cracksman's art has opened. and
the famous jimmy. SO long rampant on
the successful burglars coat Of arms. is
to be superseded by more convenient Ia
Dor saving tools
In Marseilles the other day gang Of
ingenious cracksmen entered q bankers
Office armed with q steel saw Of the
newest construction and q handy little
gas engine. There was no need for the
exercise Of muscle, nor was there any
necessity for good strong wrist at the
saw, as there was at one time in the
annals Of famous robberiea
The little engine was started. the
saw put in the proper place and the
connections made. Seating themselves
serenely upon couple of chairs near at
hand, these modern burglars watched
the true and rapid work Of their appli-
ances.
The big safe might have resisted for
hours the force of human hands, but
the saw. impelled by the engine. it could
not stand against. The stout iron safe
promptly yielded mp its contents Of
over $500 worth of gold and bonds, and
in quarter Of the time it would have

THE SEA OF SAND.
Marco Poio's Account OF the Great Deser
OF GobI.

Marco Polo's Account Of the Great Desert
OF Gobi.
Lop is a large town mt the edge Of
the desert which is called the desert
Of Lop and is situated between east
and northeast. 1t belongs to the great
khan, and the people worship NOLAN.
med. Now, such persons as propose to
cross the desert take weeks rest in
this town TO refresh themselves and
their cattle, and then they make ready
for the journey, taking with them a
months supply for man and beast On
quitting this city they enter the desert.
The length Of this desert is SO great
that it is said it would take year and
more TO ride from one end of it to the
other. And here, where its breadth is
least. it takes month to cross IL. IT'S
all composed of hills and valleys Of
sand, and not thing to eat is to be
found on it. But after riding for day
and night you find fresh water,
enough mayhap for some 80 or 100 per-
sons with their beasts, but not for more.
And all across the desert you will find
water in like manner-that is to say, in
some 80 places altogether you will find
good water, but in no great quantity,
and in four places also you find brack-
ish water
Beasts there are none, for there is
naught for them to eat. But there is
marvellous thing related of this desert,
which is that when travellers are on the
move by night and one of them chances
to lag behind or TO fall asleep or the
like. when he tries to gain his company
again, he will hear spirits talking and
will suppose them to be his comrades.
Sometimes the spirits will call him by
name, and thus shall traveller ofttimes
be led astray, so that he never finds his
party. And in this way many have per-
ished. Sometimes the stray travellers
Will hear. as il were, the tramp and hum
Of great cavalcade of people away
from the real line of road, and, taking
this to be their own company, they will
follow the sound, and when day breaks
they find that q cheat has been put on
them and that they are in an i'll plight.
Even in the daytime one hears those
spirits talking. And sometimes you
shall hear the sound of variety of
musical instruments and still more
commonly the sound Of drums. Hence
in making this journey it is customary
for travellers to keep close together. All
the animals, too, have bells at their
necks, so that they cannot easily get
astray. And at sleeping time signal
is put up to show the direction Of the
next march.
So thus it is that the desert is Cross

Trees That whistle.

The musical or whistling tree is found
in the West Indian islands, in Nubia
and the Sudan. 1t has peculiar shaped
leaf and pods with split or open edge.
The wind passing through these sends
out the sound which gives the tree its
peculiar name. In Barbados there is a
valley filled with these trees, and when
the trade winds blow across the islands
o constant moaning, deep toned whistle
is heard from it, which in the still hours
of the night, has Q very weird and un.
pleasant effect. A species Of acacia,
which grows very abundantly in the
Sudan, is also called the whistling tree
by the natives. Its shoots are frequent
ly, by the agency Of the larvae of in
scots. distorted in shape and swollen in.
to globular bladder from to inches
in diameter. After the insect has emery.
ed from circular hole in the side Of
this swelling. the opening. played upon
by the wind. becomes q musical instru-
ment. equal in sound to a sweet toned
hute London Tit.Bits.
