TOWER OF LONDON.
Tho Perfect System by Which It's
 Treasures Are Guarded.


 Treasures Are Guarded.
 The Tower of London has the most perfect system of burglar alarms that | has yet been devised.
 From Scotland Yard, from the gov rrnof'5 headquarters and from other places hhown oU!T b a few resp 0n. si5le officials the Whole Tower can be OndS. Even the ponderous gates at the middle tower, which weigh some tons and through which visitors pass, swing to automatically. and the escape of every one within is instantly barred. At the same time an alarm bell rings to warn wardenS, police and soldiers. In particular the precautions in the apartment containing the crown jew els are of a most scientifically elabo- rate kind. One of the beefeaters on duty in the room has merely to press a button, whereurn' the heavy door closes, the alarm be-, below rings, the other gates slam to t i lock, and every person within the tower is instantly cut off from the outer world ue I1du W uO Cdu set away WILL any of the crown jewels deserves them observed Tower official. From where l am standing l could close every important door and gate in the Tower in as short Il time as it takes to utter these words"
 Ii Was mainly to insure the safety of tue crown jewels that the system was installed.
 No order had been issued for the closing of the Tower on recent Sat urday when, greatly to their alarm. the visitors found doors locked. bolted and barred against them for about ten minutes. preventing any one leaving the Tower
 ''The Tower simply closed-that is all." remarked an official. Who caus ed is to do so we do not know It might have been Scotland Yard, where the pressing of button would inn prison every soul within the Tower un- til th~ police gave the signal for their release. or it might have been the governor, anxious to learn whether we was none of the minor officials.
 .'In fact who closed the Tower and why is secret known only to the highest authorities. There was no alarm. no attempt to seize tue crown jewels. ."-LOndon Mail.

An old negro named Ephraim, hav- ing been sworn on the jury in mur- der trial, for some time resisted yer dict of guilty for no other apparent reason than his strong aversion to capi- tai punishment in general.

 From Phyllis: Billy, boy, it's just ripping. You're the dandy kid. Just to think that you would swear off using the weed just for me. It was mighty dear of you, Billy. and it makes me all the more keen for you"
 From Marjorie "To think that you've quit smoking, William. l was so surprised. Of course always knew that you care for me. but to think that. as you say, you've made this sacrifice on my account-why, it's positively noble of you."'
 From his mother: Twill. my son, this proves your love for me. Father is inclosing a check to show that he appreciates the fact that you think enough of your parents to give up smoking for them."
 Prom his doctor: "Your letter ad- visins me that you have obeyed my orders and stopped the use of tobacco is at hand. AS I said, your compli- ance *''-Puck.
