SAFE BEHIND IRON DOORS.
How n Brooklyn Sacrament Service Is
Protected From Thieves.

How n Brooklyn Sacrament Service Is
Protected From Thieves.
1t is generally accepted as fact that
the most expensive aud elaborate taber-
nacle for the services in this country Ia
that belonging to ST. Augustine 8
church, Brooklyn. Formed entirely of
gold and silver and studded with pre-.
cious stones, it would prove rich haul
for the daring but sacrilegious marauder.
This fact was fully appreciated by the
church authorities. who have devised q
plan q protection which is as near per.
feet as can be. 1t is an electric system,
unique and effective, and now when the
congregation arrives the tabernacle is
in full view, but as soon as the congre.
CATION is dismissed the tabernacle dis
appears completely, apparently without
human aid.
Two great, heavy harveyized iron
doors, which have been covered with
gold leaf. roll forward at the press of
an electric button and completely con-
ceal and protect the costly chancei.
These folding doors meet in dome at
the top to afford protection in that direc-
tion. The motion of the doors is slow
and easy, special apparatus being de-
vised for the purpose, the doors moving
on heavy roller bearings. The motion
is impaired to them by means of sys-
TEN of gears, actuated by an electric
motor installed directly beneath in the
cellar. In order that no one should have
access to the actuating push buttons
these are placed in regulation fire and
burglar proof vault of massive oonstruc-
tion, the combination to which is
known only to the rector and his asso-
ciates. All the wires leading to the mo-
tor from the source of supply are con-
nected at various points to the local po-
lice and burglar alarm service, SO that
should any one tamper with the wires
notification would be given Immediate
ly. The safe doors are SO constructed
that should any one attempt to drill
through them other electric circuits
would be closed and the alarm given.
When the doors before the tabernacle
are closed, it is completely inclosed in
heavy iron on all sides, SO that it is
much safer than If an armed guard
stood watch before it.-Cleveland Plain

ANIMALS UNDERGROUND.
Bu-lowing ms II Is Performed by Various
Spcclss Of Mammals.


Species OF Mammals.
Ventilation, or rather the want of 10,
must be difficulty in the underground
life Of almost all mammals Tho rabbit
and the rat secure current Of aid by
forming bolt hole in connection with
tneir system Of passages, but the fox,
tho badger and many Of the field voles
and mice seem Indifferent to any such
precaution. There is no doubt that
whatever gave the first impulse to bur-
row, many animals look upon this, to
us most unpleasant exertion, as form
of actual amusement. 1t also confers O
right of property.
Prairie dogs constantly set to work to
dig holes merely for the love Of the
thing. II they cannot have suitable
place to exercise their talent in, they
will gnaw into boxes or chests of draw
ers, and there burrow, to the great det-
riment Of the clothes therein contained
In an inclosed prairie dog "town" they
have been known to mine until the su-
perincumbent earth collapsed and buried
the greater number. A young prairie
dog, let loose in small, gravel foored
house, instantly dug hole large enough
to sit in, turned round in it and bit the
first person who attempted to touch
him. Property gave him courage, for
before no had been as meek as mouse.
1t is noticeable that the two weakest
and least numerous Of our mice, the
dormouse and the harvest mouse. do not
burrow, but make nests, and that these
do not multiply or maintain their num-
bers, like the burrowing mice and voles.
But the fact that there are members of
very closely allied species, some of
which do burrow. while others do not,
seems to indicate that the habit is an
acquired one
In this connection it is worth noting
that many animals which do not bur.
row at other times form burrows in
which to conceal and protect their
young. or, If they do burrow, make d
different kind Of a more elaborate char
aoter. Among these nursery burrows
are those Of the dog, the fox and sand
martin, the kinghsher and the shell
drake. Foxhound litters never do SC
we'll as when the mother is allowed to
make burrow on the sunny side of q
straw stack. In time she will work this
five or six feet into the stack and keep
the puppies at the far end, while she
