CRACKING A STEEL SAFE.
Operation Is Far Simpler Than it
Seems at First Glance.

'"The work of cracking an old steel
safe has become very simple said
an inspector of the postoffice depart
ment to a Star reporter. "You see,"
he continued, "all the burglar has to
do is to pour nitroglycerin in the
cracks of the safe, then throw some
com bustible material over it, set it
afire and get out of the way. In a
short time the explosion occurs and
the doors drop out as readily as if it
were made of pasteboard.
This method of going into a safe
is known to all the craftsmen, and
1t seldom occurs that we hear of a
case of burglarizing a postofice in
the small towns that has not been
accomplished in that manner The
old method of boring into a safe in
order to insert the explosive is no
longer heard Of: do not know how
this practice can be stopped unless
greater care is taken in watching the
postotfces or modern safes are provid-
ed. It is impracticable to equip all
the postofices with modern safes, so
l think the simple methods of the
burglars will be used for long time
to come. '-Washington Star.

- German Methods.

English Paper Admits Superiority Of
= German Methods.
The superiority of German house
hold and kitchen utensils over English
ones is discussed by correspondent
who instances as delightful exam
pie, the china or earthenware rolling
pin, which has superseded our primi-
tive wooden one. It is almost super
fluous to point out that it is more
easily and thoroughly cleaned and is
cooler for pastry baking than is the
wooden rolling pin. If the well-to-do
English woman were to work in her
own kitchen she would surely never
tolerate such thing as the ordinary
Jug, always narrower at the top than
at the base, and therefore impossible
to get clean, except with much unnec-
essary labor; she would invent a
soup spoon with lip at the side; and
she would insist on everyday cup and
jug and vegetable dish handles being
put on square, 50 as not to harbor dirt.
