Not Fence Right of Way.
Among the decisions handed down by
tfs supreme court today is one APP
pealed from the district court Of this
county. in which Il. q. Gagwin, far
mer residing west OF LeGrand, is plain
tiff and the C.. q N. w. Railway Com
pany defendant Mr. Cagwin brought
suit in the district court to recover $500
damages for stock killed by train.
He based 'his claim on the fact that the
Northwestern had not fenced its right
of way at point east of this city, but
had run the fences TO each end OF a
bridge, thus enabling his stock to get
upon the tracks. Judge Caswell heard
the case and ruled against Mr.. Cagwin
on the point az to whether the company
was obliged to fence its entire right OF
way or only the tracks. The supreme
court now sustains Judge Caswell's de-
ciSion.

The minute crack here where the door
and the safe meet Is carefully puttied up
along its whole length. and the line of
putty is continued up for about foot
on each end along the sides of the door.
The burglar with his putty next makes
"cup" at the top of the door. directly
facing the opening made by the wedge.
When the cup is finished he fills it up
with ro-glycerine. This slowly perco-
lates through the thin opening made by
the wedge. and as soon as the cup has
emptied itself it is filled again. Now,
what happens?
The nitro-glycerine does not simply
disappear in the safe among the books
and drawers. 1t slides down the top,iof
the door at an angle of As degrees ard
follows down the inside of the door. In
stead of resting on the bottom of the
safe. the nitro glycerine follows the.
steps" into which the door is fitted.
Here the nitro glycerine collects. the
putty on the outside of the door pre-
its escape. 1T
The burglar keeps pouring in nitrnc

he believes that the interstices between

LOTTA'S BIGGEST NIGHT.
Miners of a Nevada Camp Throw Their
Riches at Her Feet.

Lolita, the eX-actress. in private life
known as Miss Charlotte Crabtree, is a
most charming and disnified woman OF
petite figure and middle age. She has
lived in retirement for nearly 20 years.
She left the stage at tne height of her
popularity for reasons that have never
been definitely stated.
Her singular influence over rough men
was exemp,itied when she was about II.
In charge of her mother she was making
tour of the Nevada mining camps. She
landed at Hamilton, one of the toughest
camps in the territory. An expectant
crowd of particularly rough miners was
at the tavern to meet her when the
stage drove up.
When there alighted from the stage
a spare, elderly lady. who was Mrs. Crab
tree. and a little girl in short frocks, who
was Miss Crabtree, the disappointment
was loudly and vooiferously expressed.
However, any show was better than
none. and that evening the miners fairly
packed the place where the show was
to take place. Two billiard tables had
been pushed together to make stage
curtain :, being dropped between for
purposes of retirement. At the hour set
for the opening there stepped from be-
hind this curtain on to the front billiard
table demure little creature with skirts

reaching to the knees and carrying o
banjo slung neligently over her should
erS.
The audience was very cold. In less
than half an hour, however, Lolita had
every mothers son of them in a state OF
high-wrought enthusiasm. She sang to
them, danced for them. and told them
funny stories with tireless energy, and
they encored her again and again.
Finally one man in the audience, carried
entirely away by enthusiasm, came down
to the front with whoop. and. throw
ing something on the stage, cried out:
Here. you can have my pile"
The example was contagious. In less
than minute every man in the place
was scrambling eagerly forward to divest
himself of riches in order to lay them at
Lottas feet.
The result of that nights work was
the most profitable in the history of Miss
Lotta's career on the stage, eitsler in
Nevada or anywhere else.-Philadelphi

RUssIA's RESPECT FOR JAPAN.
Little Brown Men Have a Magnificent
NAVY,

About Japan Russia thinks night and
day. When she, with the held of
France and Germany. had uncere-
moniously kicked Japan out of Port
Arthur and off the mainland of
China. Russia probably thought she had
done with the little island empire for a
long time. But Japan thought other
wise. and proceeded to lay out a pro-
gram of naval and military expansion
due to mature a short time before the
trans Siberian railway was to be COM
pleted.
Many things have conspired to hinder
the progress of the great railway. but
Japan's military and naval schemes have
gone steadily onward. in spite of all
financial difficulties. Today she has a
magnificent navy. including the most.
powerful battleshp atloat, stronger than
any fleet Russia could safely send to-
the far East. while her army is at least
equal in numbers and superior in equip
ment and scientific training to the land
forces Russia could muster on the east
ern side of her vast dominions. And
between the two nations there lies Corea
"a territorial deadlock. political an
tinomy. Russia cannot allow Japan to
have it, for that would give her eastern
border land frontier TO mlltarV pow
err, Japan cannot allow Russia to have
it, for that would leave her island home
almost within gunshot of the troops and
the naval bases of the colossus Of the }
north, and deprive her Of an outlet for
her overlooking population.
At present Japan is gaining. for her
influence and her people and her trade
are increasing in Corea every day. It
is a very dangerous situation, indeed.
and Russia would give much for a Dip
lomatic exit from this military and naval
anxiety. So. too. would japan. whom,
it has nearly nuined. and. the situat ton,
would inevitably hatch out a treaty. ex-s
cept for the simple dif'3ulty that neither
country will relinquish the only thing
the other wants.

HOW SAFE BLOWERS OPERATE.
Description of Their Methods Which
Will Be New to Most People.

During the past few days there has
been a good deal of quiet talk among the
safe men Of New York about the extra
ordinary occurrences in the office OF a
manufacturing concern of Lynn.
The firm owned a burglar-proof safe,
Burglars had nearly succeeded in their
breaking into it when they were fright
ened away, and had to leave their task
unfinished. When the office force came
in the morning and discovered what had
happened they did not know what to do
with the unexploded nitro-glycerine
charge which the burglars had LEFT in the
safe door, The fact that the explosive
goes off in temperature under 40 and
over 80 degrees led the firm to place Their
mometers about the office and to pad all
the doors so as to prevent sudden Jar.
Then a safe expert was called in. He
cautiously looked over the ground, and
refused to touch the safe on account of
the nitro glycerine in it. Such a thing as
this had never occurred before in the
history of the safe business in America.
for usually when a burglar tackles
safe he either quits before inserting the
explosive or else blows off the door, and
so finishes the job.
It Is a known fact that some of the
shrewdest professional burglars in this
country are former makers of safes. who
know every combination and trick of the
trade, are skilled in the use of the most
modern tools, and have a thorough
knowledge of the weak points of every
safe on the market. And for many years
safe breaking was carried on with great
success. The time lock and the rombina-
ton lock put a stop to good deal of this
activity, and then an arrangemfn mt was
made whereby, even if the hinges were
The Butte inter mountain. [volume] (Butte, Mont.) 1901-1912, 1901-12-17

sawed off. the door still remained locked.
1t almost seemed as if the burglars had
finally been foled at every point. when
nitro-g lycerine made its appearance.
Burglars We're quick to see that this
powerful liquid. which is still the active
principle of gun-cotton and dynamite.
put nearly all the safes on the market at
their mercy. But it requires the highest
mechanical skill and a great deal of ex-
perience and knowledge to use nitro
glycerine upon a safe successfully.
Very few people are aware, however.
how simple are the implements neeoed
by the modern burglar in opening safe
with nitro-glycerine. His outfit consists
of few pounds of putty. sufficient
quantity Of ntro-glycerine. hammer,
and perhaps a couple of thin Wedges.
With these. and a fuse and matches. he
is ready to negotiate the so-called
burglar-proof safe. and the degree of his
success depends almost wholly upon
himself
A very short time is needed in which
to blow" the safe. The first thing done
is to make a careful inspection of the
upper door jamb of the safe. No matter
how tight fitting and carefully adjusted
the door of a safe may be, it is claimed
that it is impossible to make it so that
wedge hardly any thicker than razor
edge will not find entrance. A few taps
with hammer drives in the thin end of
the wedge. making an opening which
may not be any bigger than thin sheet
of paper. The wedge is driven IN fur
ther thicker wedge is inserted. and
this is followed. perhaps, by still
thicker one. each wedge only receiving
a few dull blows, until finally the open
ing between the door and the wall of
the safe is perhaps a sixteenth of an
inch wide. Leaving the last wedge III
place, the burglar now turns to his
lump of putty and goes to work on the
bottom of the safe door.
