TRICKS PLAYED ON BANKERS
PinlSerton Unveils Sharp Practices
in Selling BurgInr-Proof Devices.
June -, 1899.

zone Of the things most eagerly
sought after by the bankers" said
William A. Pinkerton, ''is protection
for their funds, and this desire ofton
makes them easy prey for slick conf
dence men. ! don't mean the ordinary
con sharps. for any up-to-date ban;t-
er can guard against their wiles. BE-:
there is a class of smooth takers who
do business with bankers in an appar-
emily 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 fire-proof 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 al
ways get the kind of protection he
thinks he has purchased. After he has
been bambooZled a few times he be-
comes suspicious even of those who
are honest and able to furnish him
receptacles which will give protection
against the ingenious burglar who has
been so much in evidence lately.
For instance, when a banker, after
such investigation, does finally pay a
good price for a first-class safe, and
begins to rest easy, along comes 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
a hole any desired size, into his safe
in few minutes ard easily extract its
contents. But if the banker will buy
an electric alarm system, which this
ready eXaggeratOr has to sell. then any
old box can be made burglar-proOf. No
safe has ever yet been robbed by the
use of the electric current. 1t is posi-
lively impracticabla for such trick to
be performed, and has been proven so
upon at least two occasions by electri
cal experts While it is true that any
metal can be pierced or melted rapidly
with electricity under certain favOra-
BILE conditions, yet t is impossible for
a bank burglar to secure the required
facilities.
THE method by which some bankers
have been scared into purchasing cleo
trio alarm systems which sound gOngs
in the streets, often give false alarms,
and can be defeated-is a fake pure
and simple. Some bankers have been
eye-witnesses in Chicago to the pro-
cess of burning holes into bank safes
This work is done in basement. In
one room the banker sees a positive
electric wire attached to carbon
clamped to a stick, negative wire at
tached to the safe, sheet-iron box lin
ed with asbestos with a hole in the
center, fastened to the safe. switch
board, and he sees the metal melt but
he does not see, located in another
room great resistance coils immersed
in an immense trough of running water
and various other hidden paraphernal-
ia. If the investigator were allowed to
see the whole outfit he would not wor-
ry one moment about having his safe
robbed by electricity.
The best protection is watch sys-
TEN conducted by reliable men. Full
ly one-half of the so-called burglar
proof devices are fakes, and made only

Bordeaux Mixture for Potato Bugs,

Mixture Tor Potato Bugs.
No farmer can afford the loss of one.
third of his crop. Yet potato growers
who do not use bordeaux mixture often
lose more than this. The results of the
eight years trial at the Vermont ex-
pertinent station show average yields of
DOG bushels an acre where SPRAYED and
LIB bushels where not sprayed. 1t pays
to spray potatoes if done rightly. The
practice of the Vermont experiment
station is to use paris green for the bee
tie during June. During July and Au-
gust two or three applications are made
OF bordeaux-paris.g green mixture. This
mixture consists of six pounds copper
sulphate, four pounds lime, one-half
pound paris green, one barrel (4O or so
gallons) water. Stake the lime and d.
Lutte with about one-half the water; dis
solve the sulphate In the other half, then
pour this vitrol solution into the lime
water, meanwhile stirring thoroughly.
Add the paris green and the mixture is
ready for use. Spraying of early pota-
toes is begun about July /, and of later
potatoes about the middle of July. A
second application is made two or three
weeks after the first. A third applica-
ton follows two or three weeks after
the second, if needed. Some years this
third application does little good other
years it saves the crop from late blight
or rot. How shall the mixture be an.
piled! The object is to cover the upper
surface of the leaves with thin LAYER
of the mixture. There is no danger to
the vines from using too much and most
men make the mistake of applying too
little. In small field the mixture NAV
be put on with sprinkling can. For an
acre or more spray pump Is desirable.
There are many of these on the market.
The simplest, and therefore best, way to
begin is to have a good strong pump
mounted on barrel which can be
carried through the field in either a
common one horse wagon, or better, on
special two-wheeled cart (wheels six
feet apart, to straddle two rows, while
the horse walks between them One or
two hose with nozzles, run from this
pump, can be directed by one or two
men riding, or better, walking. In the
latter case each hose should be ten feet
or more in length. A good spraying
outfit is largely homemade. and each
man will soon modify the details of this
method to meet his own conditions. The
above suggests a good way to begin.
Spray promptly and thoroughly or not
at all.

M. Lambert, the negro who was arrested Tuesday upon a charge of robbery made by George Washing ton who is also charged with rob bery and petit larceny, was dis charged by Judge Vance this morn ing.
 Ee was arraigned for trial and only one witness, young Washing ten, appeared for the State. Washington swore that Lambert urged the boys on to roo McCaln's store and told item how 10 go about 1t. There were no witnesses for the plaintiff but be plead mott guilty" "
 Judge Vance discharged Lambert notwithstanding the evidence given by young Washington was strong and thought to be true, but the law says that you can't convict a man upon the testimony of an accom- p.ice alone, and unsupported by other evidence.
 After the trial Judge Vance fined Washington $50 and costs for petit larceny. The charge of robbery, which is docketed against him will be investigated by the next grand i jury.

WHAT THE LAW DECIDES.


 The right to use the name of cor Doration is held, in Huntingdon vs. Pal mer (R. I.), 43 L. R. A. 95, to be dis tinct from the right to use the name of articles manufactured by 1t, and not to pass with the latter on a purchase of the plant, machinery, stock and Yis- ible property of the company.
 The enforeibility Of stockholders liability in a jurisdiction outside of that in which the corporation was ere ated is sustained in Bell ys. Farwell Ill.), 42 L. R. A. SO4, in case Of Kan sas corporation, on the ground that the stockholders liability under Kansas law is not penal, but eontractual.
 The suficiency of presentment and demand of payment made on receiver pendente lite of an insolvent bank, and of notice of non-payment by him, to bind an indorser of a negotiable cer- tifieate of deposit issued by the bank before it's insolvency, is denied in Jack son ys. McInnis (0re), 4S L. R. A. 12S.
 The right of married woman to maintain an action in her own name to recover damages for the alienation of her husbands affections Is sustained in Beach ys. Brown (Wash.), 45 |. R. A.. IA, under statutes abo1ishing disabil- ities of married women. and it is also held that procuring a divorce will not preclude the action.
 The liability of lunatie on his con- tract is sustained in Flach vs. Gott- schalk company (Md.), 42 L. R. A. 745, if the contract is fair and reasonable in its terms and was made with one who did not know of the lunaey, when that had not been judieiously ascertained, and where the parties cannot be re- stored to their original situation.
 The constitutional provision against ex post facto laws is held, in Murphy vs. Com. (Mass.), 43 l.. R. A. 154, to condemn statute which alters or may alter in a substantial manner the posi- tion of those who committed offenses before it's passage, even if in partic- ular case it might operate more bene- ficially than the prior law would have done. And this rule is applied where a statute changed the provision as to de- auctions for good conduct and permits to be at liberty.
 The evidence of expert witnesses as to the value of services is held, h Hull vs. St. Louis (Mo), 42 L. R A. 753, to be merely advisory, to be given by the jury such weight as they deem it en- titled to, or to be altogether disregard ed by them, if, from all the facts and circumstances in evidence, they believe the testimony of the experts to be un- reasonable. A full review of the au- thorities on the conclusiyeness of ex- pert testimony is presented in the ex- tensive annotation to this case
