 the strong

Suffolk. Va. April 2o.-Tunneling their way under four other buildings to reach the vaults of a bank. robbers finally gained admission to the Bank of Suffolk, carried away with them a large amount of loose currency, gold and silver. and succeeded in making their escape.
 Although the loss was discovered by the bank officials Monday morning no notification thereof was given to the police until late this afternoon.
 It ia thought that the thieves must have spent at least ten days before they succeeded in reaching the bank by their underground course on Saturday or Sunday night. They attempted to break open the vault but did not sue ceed. They secured about S1,50o.
 Inside the tunnel were found empty bottles, cigar stumps and bits of food which make 1t evident that they must have spent most of their time there
 Employees fin one of the stores under which they tunnelled say that they noticed somo peculiar noises during the past week.

The rapidly diminishing supply Of tim

devise some substitute or invent a cheap
combination that win greatly assist in
extending the life Of the woods, this CON.
dition Is especially made manifest with
railroad ties and poles for telegraph, tel.
ephone and other purposes, OF which il
Is estimated there are over 10000, ,00C
poles nov in use.
Some Of the railroad companies are
now experimenting With treating all new
ties with clear-soot, and it is claimed that
this treatment will nearly double the life
of the tie.
The problem Of lengthening the life ol
the pole at small expense, is claimed to
have been solved by Restore B. Lamb, Of
Mount Holly, N. ].
His mode of operation (which is pat
ented) is to dig around the base of the
pole sbout 8 foot in depth and after
Scraping away some decayed parts which
may exist, small strips Of wood are
placed vertically q few inches apart
around the pole, after this is done cas-
ing OF rubber roofing or similar materials
is secured around the strips Of wood, this
casing extending foot below the surface
and three inches above. Into this vacant
space thus formed Of about half inch is
poured boiling hot asphalt which will
permeate and preserve every part Of the
pole in which il comes in contact.
In locations liable to firesa Gaping of
cement Is used. Several poles have been
axpsrimentally treated thus at Mount
Holly since last fall, the entire cost be-
ing about so cents pole.

Hitherto such decorations have been with.
