Burglary is Now q Science.

The modern burglar is scientist
and inventor in his way. Recently q
new era in safe breaking and other
branches of the cracksmsn's art has
opened, and the famous jimmy, SO
long rampant on the successful burg
lars coat OF arms, is to be superseded
by more convenient labor saving tools.
In Marseilles, France, the other day
gang of ingenious cracksmen entered
q bankers Office armed with 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 a good
strong wrist at the saw, as there was
at one time in the annals of famous
robberies.
The light 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 appliances.
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 up its CON-
tentsof many. thousands dollars worth
of gold and bonds. and in quarter Of
the time it would have taken to have
committed the robbery under the old
conditions the burglars were we'll out
OF the building with their booty.

Bald Headed Men Not Sensitive.

"Then, too, think the race OF men
is not so sensitive as it used to be. To
be bald is not criminal, and the man
so. afflicted takes it simply as some
thing unavoidable, and when he looks
around he can see thousands to keep
him company and give him strength
to remain as nature made him. Once
he wears a wig, however, the chances
are that he will keep it On. 1t is s.
protection as we'll as substitute for
his lack. To take it off would be Just
like taking off heavy clothing in the
middle of winter. =

Not Eager for Service In Cuba.

Spanish soldiers are betraying an
insurmountable aversion to a campaign
in Cuba, and desertlons have been
very frequent of late. This has led to
the adoption of an extremely strici
surveillance along the Pyrenean from
tier, and all the trains running to
France are carefully scrutinized by
the Spanish gendarmes, to the annoy
ance and discomfort of many Of the
passengers. Young men are subjected
to q severe examination, and those
who are unable to establish their iden'
tity OF give satisfactory explanation
of the motives OF their journey are
compelled to alight, and are conducted
to the gendarmerie, where they are
again piled with questions. all the de.
serters detected in this way being at
once handed over to the military au.
thorities. This often entails consid'
erable delay. and, in spite OF the
wstchfulness of the officials, many
young soldiers still succeed in making
their way into France. Teie'

The White House Doll House.

"The doll play house has long been
without an occupant" remarked one
of the attaches of the Executive
Mansion, IN speaking of the doll house
which has been stored under the east'
ern portico OF the White House for g
number OF years. "This play house
was given to Nellie Arthur, and waf
much used by her and her girl friends.
It was nicely furnished. One of the
two rooms was furnished as kitchen
and dining room. and the other as 8
combination sitting room and parlor.
Nellie Arthur, when she first came tc
the White House, was of the doll age,
but before she was here long she grew
out of it, and the doll house was de-
serted. 1t has had no occupant since.
and is not likely to have any for some
time.
"Only two children can get in the
house at the same time. There have
been a number of applicants for the
house, but every one has hesitated to
do anything about it. OF course,
Nellie Arthur, or any one authorized
by her could get the house by simply
sending for it, for it is her private
property, and though ithas been stored
under the east portico, the Govern
ment has no control over it. Nellie
Arthur has children of her own now,
and she may send for it some day foI
them. For the children, and especially
the girls of doll age, it is the most in.
teresting thing about the White
House. "-Washington Star.

shoulders with the lower edge falling
in soft, graceful folds. Wide lapels
turn back from the fronts at the top,
and the closing is effected in double
breasted fashion with coat hooks and

decoration. The neck is completed
with a storm collar that may be rolled
back in coat style, and finished with
regular tailor stitching. The mode is
particularly adapted for general or
every day wear, the overlapping
front providing additional warmth.
When lined throughout or made in

cape may be safely worn in midwinter.
The coat collar should have an inter.
lining of light weight canvas in its

In Favor of the Rocker.

In every American home the rocking
chair is regarded as an indispensable
accessory. Those who love their rock.
ing chair will be glad to know that IL
medical authority has recently pro-
nounced it to be OF use in certain
cases of dyspepsia. If the patient
lies in an almost horizontal position,
and the movement of rocking is verS
gentle in character, good results have
been know to follow, supposedly he.
cause the movement stimulates the
digestive organs. would warn peo.
pie, however, against the introduc.
ton of a rocking chair in tie nursery,
where there are very young children.
While playing they are apt to rttariy
disregard danger, and have often been
squeezed beneath the rockers. Again
there is danger in using tho rocking
chair near delicate bric-a.bra, OF glass
cabinets foI obvious reasons.
