1t Will BE Absolutely Safe,

Baltimore trust company has Just
contracted with Pittsburg parties for
the construction of the largest steel
vault in the world. 1t will be of Har-
Veyized armor plate exclusively, except
for reinforcement of cast steel in
front. 1t will be 24x25x9 feet in the
clear, inside, and will require $50 tons
of armor plate. The vault will have
four-inch plates on all sides except the
front, which will be six inches, and a
reinforcement of cast steel plate six
inches in thickness and. six-inch door.
The plates will be Joined continuously
by the doVetail mortise method, which
will give them a solidity, when the
mortises are complete, which could not
be secured in any other way. The
vault will be absolutely proof against
burglary, at least against the ap-
planes usually operated in that pro-
fession. 1t is impossible to attack the
Harveyized plates with a drill, which
precludes the use of explosives, and
the plates are also proof against an
attack by electrolysis
Every plate is tested by drills and
other mechanical means of breaking in
TO a vault and the highest electric
power is as harmless as a drill, which
would be shattered into fragments
against the face of the hardened ma
terial. The vault of a trust company
of Pittsburg has six inches of plate on
all sides except the front, which is eight
inches The new vaults are impreg-
nable against any form of attack now
known and are coming into favor rap
idly for that reason. The destruction
of the largest building in which they
are located would not affect them in
the slightest degree, and any mechan-
ical force which a few men could have
available for breaking into a safe would
be worse than useless.

Helena, Aug. 26.-The Billings cowboys
corraled the first game of the series from
the Helenas by superior work with the
willow and in the field. The visitors, ex-
cept Rose, played fine ball. Rose made
three or four errors. total of IS hits
for Billings and Is for Helena shows that
it was smuggling game, in which the visi-
tors had the better of it. They also bunch
ed their hits, while in no inning except
the first did the Helenas assemble as
many as three hits. Two clever double
plays by the visitors were the only star
plays, for the most part the put-outs be-
ing easy.
Billings has got together strong team

merry of Butte, Casey of Ogden and one or

GREAT BEND COUNTRY OF TEXAS
Region Which IL Least Known OF Any In
the United States.

An expedition sent out by the United
States geological survey, under the
leadership Of Robert T. Hill, is about
to undertake the exploration of the
least known portion of the United
States-namely, the Great Bend region
or southwest Texas, SO called because
IT lies in the great bend of the Rio
Grande river. An old saying in that
country is that this inhospitable do
main was originally designed as a loca-
tion for hades, but that somehow the
plan to utilize it thus was not carried
out-for what reason cannot be imag-
ined, inasmuch as it seems admirably
adapted for the purpose 1t is a KIND
of weirdly horrible desert basins, sand
Wiched between ranges of gigantic
mountains, which are carved into all
sorts of astonishing shapes, but the
strangest feature of its formation is a
series of mighty canyons, almost equal
ing in grandeur the famous canyon of
the Colorado.
1t is country in which, as the phrase
goes, the traveller must climb for wat
er and dig for wood" and this express
sion is correctly descriptive inasmuch
as water can only be obtained by
ascending the mountains to find
streams, while the only available fuel,
in the absolute absence of trees. is fur
nished by the huge roots of the mes
quite, which are dug out of the ground.
For a distance of 225 miles the Rio
Grande flows through this remarkable
region, piercing range after range of
mountains, through which it has cut
the canyons described. Nobody has
ever Ventured to attempt a passage
through these canyons by the river,
which is INSTRUCTED by frightful cata-
racts and rapids, but Mr.. Hill is going
10 try II.
Interest in the region has been
aroused recently by the discovery of
rich deposits of quicksilver in the Chi
sos mountains-one of the greatest
ranges through which the Rio Grande
has cut its rock-walled tunnel. And,
