RAISED FOR BRACELETS.
IL the New Hebrides Pig Tusiss Are
Used by the Natives for
That Purpose.

The natives Of the New Hebrides is
lands In the Pacific ocean raise pigs
for bracelets. The upper canine teeth
of the pigs are removed and that gives
the lower tuslxs a chance to grow as
much as they wish. The lower teeth
grow and, finding no resistance, attain
a good length. The teeth grow in a
spiral and the tip often lies beside
the root of the tooth. Very rarely the
point grows into the root of the tooth
and makes n complete circle. Some
times the tooth grows clear around
twice and makes coil.
The natives of the New Hebrides prize
the boars according 10 the length of
the tooth. A complete pig tooth brace
let is very valuable jewel, which Is
worn around the wrist or attached TO a
string around the throat. The native
man Of wealth has many Of these teeth
and many more growing all the while.
They pass current in barter as money
of value. The boar with bracelet teeth
Is not killed till his teeth seem TO have
reached the limit Of their length. and
the killing is done ut the "Sing Sing
feast, which corresponds 10 "hog-kill-
ing time" in various localities in Amer
lea.

TRICKS ON BANKERS.
Detective Pinkerton Unveils sharp !
Practices I'm Selling Burglar
Proof Devices.

zone of the things most eagerly
sought after by the bankers" said
William A. pinkerton, the detective,
sis protection for their funds, and this
desire often makes them easy prey for
slick confidence men. don't mean the
ordinary con sharps. for any up-to-
date banker can guard against their
wiles. But there is a class Of smooth
takers who do business with bankers
in an apparently legitimate manner
and get the cash every time without
taking any risk. These are the chaps
who have something TO sell in the way
of burglar-proof or fireproof devices.
Many OF the dealers and agents are
reputable and straightforward in their
business, but there are black sheep in
all lines OF trade, and the banker does
not always get the kind Of protection
he thinks he has purchased After he
has been bamboozled few times he
becomes suspicious even Of those who
are honest and able TO furnish him re-
ceptacles which viii give protection
against the ingenious burglar who has
| been so much in evidence lately.
s.For instance, when a banker, after
such investigation, does finally pay a
good price for first-class safe, and be-
gins 70 rest easy, along comes a new
schemer, who is after his dollars, and
assures him that his safe is absolutely
worthless; that any burglar can, by the
use Of the electric current, burn n hole
any desired size into his safe in q few
minutes and easily extract its contents.
But II the banker will buy an electric
alarm system. which this ready cxag-
gerator has to sell, then any old box
can be made burglar-proof. No safe
has ever vet been robbed by the use OF
the electric current. 1t is positively i'm
practicable for such a trick TO be per
| formed, and has been proved so upon at
least two occasions by electrical eN-
perts. While IL is true that any metal
can be pierced or melted rapidly with
electricity under certain favorable con
ditions. yet IL is impossible for n bank
burglar 10 secure the required facil-
tiles.
"The method by which some bankers
have been scared into purchasing cleo
tricalarm systems-which sound gongs
in the streets, often give false alarms
and can be defeated-is a fake pure
and simple. Some bankers have beer
eye-witnesses in Chicago TO the process
Of burning holes into bank safes. This
work is done in a basement In one
room the banker sees q positive electric
wire attached TO a carbon clamped to
stick, a negative wire attached to tho
safe, a sheet-iron box lined with asbes
tos with a hole in the center, fastened
TO the safe, switchboard, and he seei
the metal, but he does not see, located
in another room. great resistance coils
immersed in an immense trough OF run
ming water, and various other bidder
parnphernalia. If the investigator
were allowed to see the whole outfit h'
would not worry one moment abou
having his safe robbed by electricity.
"rhe best protection is a watch sys
tenn conducted by reliable men. Full,
one-half Of the so-called burglar-proo
= devices are fakes, and made only t.
sell. "-Chicago Inter Ocean.
