THE "SQUEEZER."
Device for Doing Up Robbers of rlail
Trains.

The most suitable punishment for a
train-robber is to squeeze him to death
between hot harrows. The irability
of something of this kind is obvious
enough to the meaneSt comprehension,
but we never should have thought the
idea feasible had we not seen it de-
scribed in the Patent Office Gazette"
Matthews & Sherbourne two hydrau
lie or caloric (or hydrocaloric) engineers
of Topeka are the inventors of the train
robber squelcher, and according to their
description it is the climax of simplicity.
AS everyone knows, gang of train
robbers always climb up over the cross
head guides, steam chest, and running
board SO as to attack the cab of the To-
cCmotive on the front side. Now, when
six of them get on the running board
on the firemans side and six on the
other, Messrs. Matthews e. Sherbourne
just loosen a catch; the running-boards,
hung on hinges at their outer Sides drop
to a vertical position, and there you
have a dozen robbers Wedged between
the boards and the boiler.
How must robber feel in such a po-
sition? Spikes are fixed in the edge Of
the running board, and these prevent
him from eXtricating himself; the more
he pulled to get away the tighter he
would become wedged. At the same
time that the engineer springs the
catches of the running boards, steel
shutters spring automatically about the
windows of the cab and also at it's rear,

HELPFUL AUNT MARY.
She AnathemiZes What City Folks
Call Winding Their Business.

There is a dear old lady who visits
her nephews and nieces in New York
occasionally whom we may call Aunt
Mary, and who, while expressing her
appreciation of the delights Of city life,
finds much fault with certain phases
Of metropolitan existence, says "Har-
per's Magazine"
You never know your nearest neigh
Dor" she protests. ''The folks next
door may be robbers and pickpockets
and everything, for all you know"
But, If they are, we don't want to
know them, auntie," returns a favorite
nephew. Fancy calling on a friend,
and when you go to leave your card,
find that he has picked your pocket of
your card-case not to mention your
watch and purse"
And, as for recognizing that a
stranger exists in public, why, it's a
crime" Aunt Mary will continue,
warming to her subject. "a body
might break his neck here, and no one
would speak to him."
But, auntie," goes on the incorrigi-
BILE, there are SO many people here, we
can't go round with splints and ad-
hesive plaster and that sort of stuff in
cur pockets, and, If we see a stranger 8
head wobble, rush up and offer the
things to him with the idea that he's
just snapped off his neck
But recently in returning home on
the train Aunt Mary had a chance to
demonstrate her theories. In the seat
ahead Of her was a young couple who
enlisted her favorable attention. She
conceived them to be newly married.
and her heart warmed toward them
without delay. The train soon stopped
at small station, and they left the
car. She observed them on the platform
outside, and just before the train start
cd she happened to spy a pasteboard
box tied up with bit of string in the
seat they had deserted. Goodness, /"
thought Aunt Mary, they're SO intent
on each other that they've forgotten
their luggage" She seized it and
looked out Of the open window. The
girl stood by the baggage-room door,
the man having apparently gone in
side. Aunt Mary waved the box at
her. She answered, but the clang OF
the engine bell drowned out what she

other shook her head. The train start
ed. Aunt Mary cast the box out vio-
lently. 1t struck the platform at the
feet of the girl, the string, broke, and
out rolled a half-dozen pairs of new
socks, several Starched cuffs and col
lars, a pair of suspenders and couple
of white shirts They've got 'em,

saw it. Curious how forgetful young
folks can be. But" She looked up,
and met the reproachful gaze of the
man standing by the empty seat.
Madam" he said .'the-er-young
lady stops at the station, but l go on
to Buffalo,"
But how was a body to have known
it?" says Aunt Mary. when she relates

so that the engineer and fireman are
fully protected from any bullets from
without.
Steampipes having suitable discharg-
ing nozzles are situated at such points
about the engine as would be liable to
be attacked by the intruders. These
pipes are connected to the boiler of the
engine, and when suitable cock is
opened hot water and steam are dis
charged by the said pipes and this
either scalds the intruders or keeps them
at a respectful distance. Similar de-
vices are provided upon both the tender
and the express car.
