MAP SHOWING BANK RoBBERlEs FOR THE PAST YEAR

brings out one of the curious facts In
connection with the bank robberies.
They were all committed in small
towns, even the names of which are
unfamiliar to the average American.
No city of any size figures in the rec
ords.
big bank robberies in cities are
thing Of the past" remarked detect

thing. the banks in the great cities have
more money at stake. They must make

New York, Philadelphia or Chicago, for
instance, did not keep more than $780,

ten or fifteen years ago. Now the great
banks frequently carry from $5,OOO,O0O
to $1O,OOO,OOO. With such sums, no
walls can be too thick. no vaults too
strong.

from a bank in Truxton, N. Y, on Dec

A filance at the discs on the may in

report shows that the largest number
Of bank burgaries in any one State was

and North Dakota and South Dakota
each with 4. OF the hold-up robberies
there were two each in Kansas and
Oklahoma. and one each in Colorado
Illinois, Missouri, Nebraska and North
Carolina. When asked why the bur-
glaries and hold-ups were thus confined
to a comparatively small section of the
country the detective replied:
"The Middle West Is stamping
ground for thieves, because, for one
thing, the distances are so long and the
areas so vast that 1t is difficult for the
police and sheriffs to give effective SER
vice. Twenty-Five miles Of comparatively
open country between even small towns
gives the thieves many chances to es-

The president of the first interna-
tional congress to discuss moral educa-
tion in the schools which was held in
London recently, said that the world
was deeply indebted to the educational
thought and experiment Of the United
States. 1t has been a national boast
that the American schools strive to
teach good morals rs well as correct
history and arithmetic, and 1t Is pleas
ant to have their efforts thus recog-
oized.

Many estimates have been made OF
what the population Of the United
States will be in 1850. They vary all
the way from one hundred and seventy
five millions to two hundred millions
The latest person to make an estimate,
however, takes quite different view.
In the Atlantic Monthly, w. s. Rossl-
ter, a census expert, shows that tie
rate of increase In population Is stead
lily declining. From 1870 to 1880 the
increase was thlrty-one per cent. From
1880 to 1890, twenty-four per cent, and

in the rate, Mr.. Rossiter estimates that
the population in 1850 will not be over
one hundred and thirty millions, and

F0RTY-PIECE BAND SCORES
A HIT WITH GLIDDENITES

One of the most noteworthy features
attending the start of the Glidden tour
was the presence of the MAXWELL
Briscoe Motor cOmpany's band, forty
strong, who had come from Newcastle.
Ind, to lend their tuneful activities
to the greatest of all American tour
ing contests.
The band made it's first bow TO De-
troit on Sunday. during the festivities
prepared for the Gliddenites by the city
of Detroit. The band won much praise
for its excellent performance and is
said to be the best drilled musical or
ganization of it's kind in the state of
Indiana.

perfectly safe and possible to throttle
the engine down to as low as 10 or 70
revolutions per minute without danger
of the motor stopping
In the commercial vehicle the COM
pactness and minimum space required
are of even more Importance than in the
pleasure type of car. The reduced num-
Der of parts, absence of all water cool
ing devices, etc. and simplicity of mo-
tor are also more apparent in the COM
mercial vehicle, which cannot always
afford the offices of an expensive me-
chanic to operate.
In motor cars which have proved
themselves an important factor in mod
erni transportation the Rotary is par
ticularly adapted by reason of its
smooth. quiet running and minimum
vibration, which is very important in
this type of conveyance, where there
are solid metal wheels running on steel
rails with no pneumatic tires to help
out. The air cooling properties, with
their absence of water apparatus, also
strongly appeal to this type.
In pumping plants the Rotary may
be directly connected to a centrifugal
or rotary pump, doing away with all
betting or gearing, which greatly in
creases it's efficiency for such purposes,
which, combined with it's simple con-
struction, makes it especially adapted
to this work.
In mining operations, where engines
are required in remote and inaccessible
places, the Rotary is compact and light
enough to be transported on the back
of a mule to places where 1t would be
impracticable to take an engine of the
old type
In farming machinery and portable
outfits of all kinds it is most adaptable
on account of light weight, small space
and minimum vibration, which does not
require any elaborate foundation.
In electric lighting the Rotary is
especially desirable owing to the
steady, uniform impulses of the engine
and its almost entire lack of vibration.
The Drincinle of the Rotary is bound

usefulness
In power boats of all classes the Ro-
tary has one of its greatest fields. The
light weight will allow far greater
speed, and the small space occupied
much more room than is possible at
present, while the absence of that con-
stant vibration which is so noticeable
in the present type will be greatly ap
Dreciated.

POOR MOTORlST PAYS
NOVEL DAMAGE CLAIM

"How close to a horse, tied at the
roadside, may an automobile go with
out rendering its driver liable for an
accident that may occur?" This is the
question a Wisconsin justice was called
upon to decide recently, and he decided
it against the motorist.
The testimony showed that the car
was being driven at a moderate pace,
under it's own momentum, the engine
being dead, and when passing the horse
was but three feet away from it.
The horse broke away, but a bystand-
er grasped the bride. At this juncture
the owner. of the horse appeared and
demanded damages for the damaged
piece of harness. He got it, too.
