least resistance. Another reason is that
there are more of them than anything
else that could afford burglar a means
of entrance. When burglar apprea ehes
the house he intends to enter he first
tries all the windows. If they are fas-
tened he next makes an examination of
all the doors and the cellar windows
Then if he finds all these securely fas-
tened he goes back to the windows, Sc
lecting one which is in a room in that
part Of the house best suited for him to
effect his entrance
The hOuse-breaker's methods Of enter
ing a DWELLING by the way Of a window
are very simple and few in number. Per-
haps the most common way in which the
burglar effects his entrance through
window is accomplished by means Of
putty knife. Everyone is familiar with
=. the shape, size and thinness of the blade
of knife Of this kind, therefore no de-
scription is necessary. To convert it to
useful tool for his criminal purposes the
burglar simply cuts an obIong piece out
of the end of the blade, equal in width
to the width of the blade and equal in
length to the width of the sash. With
such a tool the house-breaker is enabled
to slip the thin blade between the sash
and inspiring the catch on the window
without much difficulty.
But once in a while the burglar meets
with window lock that defes his putty
knife tool. Mr.. Burglar, however, does
not despair. He is a man of keen re-
sources. A hairpin, generally credited as
being a woman's thing of general utility,
may serve his purpose. By bending 1t
into a hook, inserting it between the
sashes, and few dexterous twists, the
catch Is made to yield. Again IL the
house-breaker should fail to gain entrance
by the hairpin route, he breaks the glass
as close to the window catch as possible
by light, smart blow. Then he removes
the pieces of shattered glass and unlocks
the window by inserting a wire hook
through the aperture Burglars have also
entered houses by removing an entire
pane of glass from window, having
scraped away all the putty. Instances OF
this kind, however, are exceedingly rare,
for the modern burglar values every mo-
ment and is fast workman.
In so Der cent of the cases where bur-
The Saint Paul globe. (St. Paul, Minn.) 1896-1905, 1903-01-11

glars have entered houses through win
dows the police say no tools are neces-
sary. The windows are left unlocked
through carelessness and all there is to
be done is to throw up the sash and enter.
Especially is this true during the hot
nights Of the summer months, when
homes are at the mercy of the house
breaker because every window is thrown
up that every breath of air that stirs
may be felt.
Entrances are also secured through
windows by means Of a Jimmy" which
is used to force the catch.
Many people feel secure with their
doors locked and the keys left in the
to the modern burglar. BY means Of a
pair Of outsiders he is enabled to enter
by way of the door as easily and almost
as quickly as if he had the key himself.
A pair Of outsiders" is one of the most
useful tools of a burglars kit This in
strument has almost every appearance Of
wonan's curling iron. 1t consists of
two pieces of steel moulded in the shape
of spoon, and at the end of which there
shaped steel are fastened together in the
center by a spring and the other ends are
set in wooden handles This makes the
tool very closely resemble a curling iron.
This instrument is used by a burglar who
works on the outside of a door which is
locked on the inside and the key turned
and left in the lock. BY simply inserting
his pair of outsiders in the keyhole the
burglar is enabled to grasp the key and
turn it in the lock. This tool is favorite
with hotel thieves.
Doors are also opened by means Of slen-
der skeleton keys, but since the advent Of
the outsiders these old-time instru-
ments are steadily passing out of use.
''Jimmies" are also used in forcing doors,
especially in the case Of inside bolts. An
other method of securing entrance
through a door when it is locked by in
side bolts is by boring a circle of holes
in the door panel, knocking out that part
of the panel inside the circle, and unbolt-
ing the lock by inserting the hand
through the aperture. The police say,
however, that an entrance effected in
this manner is usually the work of now
ices. Cellar windows are easily disposed
Of by kicking them in. These are very
frequently forgotten by the inmates of
the house, and more frequently left I'M
locked. Detectives declare that there is
not house in the city but what any
skilled house-breaker could enter with
out very great efforts on his part.
In the lockers of the detectives room
at the police headquarters station may be
found many of the queer tools used by
burglars in house breaking. These tools
are of ali shapes and sizes, the result Of
the wonderful ingenuity of men, who. in
stead Of employing their skill in honest
work, preferred to use it in devfsfng i'm.
plements for criminal purposes.
In this remarkable Collection of crfrnf-
nails tools is every implement used by
the burglar-rings full of slender skele-
ton keys, numerous pairs of outsiders"
jimmies, drills, hammers and wedges
There are also a number of queer little
packages containing piece Of hard soap,
a phial Of nitroglycerin. a few ounces
of dynamite. fuse-part Of a safe
crackers outfit.
The modern house breaker keeps
abreast of the times as much as the most
