Builders Up Against 1t.

ut is evident from this experience that
the builders of safes must provide for new
contingencies in their constructions. The
simple light. acetylene generators. now in
widespread use. and the equally simple
oxygen generators. charged with water and
Sodium peroxide. or the heavier cylinders
of compressed oxygen. place at the service
of the intelligent crook the possibilities of
opening the strongest safes in existence
rapidly and noSelessly provided the oper-
ator can be screened from observation.
Some large safes are so disposed that
they are under frequent observation BY
watchmen looking through windows. Usu-
ally this observation is confined to the
doors of bank vaults or the like although
in the case of the globular safes it prac-
tically extends to all exposed sides. In the
greater majority of cases existing safes
would offer next to no difficulty to skill
full craftsman If able to work without
being seen. 1t is evident that owners will
be forced henceforth to adopt such meas
ures as will reduce to a minimum all pos
sibnlties of access to free-standing. NOV
able safes, or the hidden sides of safes,
embedded in cement or masonry
Manufacturers of safes will, on the con-
trary. be impelled to fight the scientific
burglar with his own weapons. In some
what the same fashion by which time locks
prevent the opening of the lock of a safe
during certain hours it will be comparative
ly easy to introduce into safe construction
chemico- mechanical devices which. during a
limited time. would render it either fatal or
physically impossible to remain In the vi
cinity of a safe or vault were the walls or
doors tempered with to such an extent as
to allow access to the interior. BY the use
of very simple form of apparatus contain
ing potassium cyanid and sulphuric acid a
robber would expose himself to the deadly
fumes of prussic acid.
Some Optimistic Ideas.
LESS dangerous. through possibilities Of
accident to those regularly using a SAFE
would be the employment of substances
Gripping a safe blower or forcing him to an
instantaneous retreat. The volatilization of
a few drops of ethyl-dichlor- acetate would
cause such -profuse and persistent weeping
that one in the immediate neighborhood
would be temporarily blinded if he persisted
in remaining. The breaking of a tube of
liquid ammonia would render immediate
withdrawal imperative under peril of suffo-
cation. Several similar compounds are at
the service of constructors. Eventually the
daring burglar with sufficient scientific
training might venture to face the I'M
known dangers of safe well provided with
more less effective neutraiizng agents
for the concealed possibilities of defense;
but certainly for some time, at slight ex-
pense. effective protection can be devised
against the attack of the scientific cracks

pipe.

Rear Admiral Coghlan, comman
dant OF the Brooklyn Navy Yard
whose reputation as relator of good
stories has increased each time he
has spoken at a dinner, told a story
afew nights ago which was given tc
illustrate his distaste for being the
last speaker.
Having the last word" the rear
admiral said. reminds me of story
l heard not long ago.
"A certain man died and a clergy
man was engaged to offer a eulogy.
This worthy minister prepared a
sermon of great length and strength,
but just before be entered the parlor

be advisable to learn what the dead
mans last words had been. So he
turned to one of the weeping young
er sons and asked:
Ny boy, can you tell me your
fathers last words?'
He didn't have none,' the bow
replied, Ma was with him to the

CLIP The Horse.

One Of the greatest improvement
ever introduced into stable manage
ment, according to the opinion Of
leading veterinarians, is the custom
OF clipping which has become so
common. A clipped horse will not
only do q greater amount Of work on
the same amount of food than q horse
with bis natural winter coat will do.
but be will also be fresh and full Of
vigor, while the horse with the heavy
winter coat will be dull, out Of
condition and seldom or never dry or
clean. Clipping removes the tend
ency to sweat. and there is no CON-
parison as between a long wet coat
and short dry one. Opponents VI
clipping claim it is unsafe TO expose
= clipped horse after il has been
warmed but experience proves the
fsllacy of this argument. AS long
as the winter coat can be kept dry
the horse is protected by it. but
when it 10 warmed up and is being
worked regularly it is next to i'm
possible to thoroughly dry the coat.
and this causes the animal TO lose
flesh, in addition TO making him a
prey to multitude ofills. Big con-
panies which require hundreds of
horses in carrying on their business
have experimental and have found
that where their horses were clipped j..
coughs and pneumonia have been
practically eliminated. Clip your
horses early in the spring you want
to keep them healthy and in good
condition.-TheH orseman.
