The outside door of the safe in
the Pennsylvania station at Ne
vada, located near Upper Sandusky
which was blown open by burglars
Saturday night was thoughtlessly
closed shortly after by some person
in the large crowd which had
eongregated after the burglary
was made known, whereupon the
big locks took hold. The safe
could not be opened as the combin-
alton was thrown off by the force
of the explosion. The exact amount
taken by the burglars could not
be determined until yesterday when
an expert safe opener from Ft.
Wayne, Indiana, opened the lock.
The auditor of the Pennsylvania
checked up the stolen property and
found that the burglars had got
ten away with but little valuable
property. The first report was that
several thousand dollars had been
stolen.
II. o. Dunkle, general superin-
tendent of the Erie railroad with

BASE BALL

The season for the great ma
tional game is about to open;
with a few enthusiasts it has
opened already, and the pastime
has been INDUCED in on the
diamond in the pasture north of
town. The writer joins with all
other citizens in welcoming this
clean, healthy sport, and we all
of US hope to see the game in
full blast ere long, but
There are abuses we do not
like to see connected with it,
and which we want to see elm.
mated here this season, and for
all time to come. One is Sun
day base ball. We just fairly
see the lips of various people
curl with disgust on reading
this, and hear them put up the
pet argument (the only one) that
this is the only day we have on
which to play. Such an argu-
ment hardly deserves recogni.
tion--it is too silly. Let US
rather look at the question from
a reasonable point Of view.
Religious considerations set
aside, the man who makes
practice of Sunday base ball is
law breaker, he is exactly as bad
as the man whoruns a bIiud pig,
or gambling joint or q bawdy
house. All are equally against
the laws of the state, put on the
statute books by the men we
send to Pierre to represent us.
Therefore it behooves us TO
stand behind our representatives
and see that the laws that they
made are enforced. We cannot
as town afford to have the |
reputation of being place
which breaks instead OF re-l
spects the law. A man who |
freaks this law regularly will
soon conceive . contempt for oil
law and break others.
The other side of the question |
deserves as much or even more
at our hands than
that above mentioned. From
time immemorial ii has been .
custom to observe Sunday as the
Lords day--a day above all
other days given up TO His wor-
ship and praise. He has given
Us everything we have. He has
made us what we are. We have

An Electric Motor Horn.

The electric horn for automobiles,
an English device, is an electric
buzzer, fitted to a common automo-
bile "toot" horn. A brass cylindrical
case contains a steel vibrating disk,
held at its periphery by. two flanges
and two electro-magnets, and the
rapid vibration OF the disk caused by
the magnetization and demagnetiza-
tion of the magnets yields a sound
which is magnified in volume and ef-
fectiveness by the horn. The current
is provided by an eight-volt accumu-
lator. The signal can be maintained
as long as 1t is necessary or desired,
the blast being louder and more con-
tinuous than that OF the ordinary
wind horn, and with the switch on
the steering wheel the driver can give
his warning without removing his
hand from the wheel.-Harper
