MANY INSPECT NEW
 ALARM SYSTEM
Public Demonstration of New Device Attracted Many Visitors to the
 Bank of Pine Bluff Yes-

lOludys
 That the Bank of Pine Bluff is talk irg on protection of the peoples in- terests as in the larger city was shown yesterday by the demonstration of the new electric burglar alarm, which was recently installed by that institution. The protection of bank CT other institution of great value by electric alarms has reached great fame in all the larger cities of the country. The government which huilt vault to hold $500 100000 con- siders the electrical device of alarm bells the most valuable means of pro- tt tction, and it can now be said that Pine Buff has equally as good protec- ton. Many interested in the new alarm at the bank called yesterday and were shown the result inside and out of the vault if any part of the ault should be attacked Bells are arranged inside of the vault for regu- lation of the time of locking and open ing and whether the vault is secure ly locked or not. This is done by means of clock and bells.
 One of the interesting features of the vault now is the sign above the door reading danger and this vault is protected by electrical devices. This was explained as meaning sure death to any user of nitro glycerine, for it vas shown in other ways that should the use of an explosive be used the effect would be an explosion instant ly from the electricity. The entire 1ault is charged with a strong cur rent and is only protected from shock ing by the rubber insolation used on the walls. This insolation is easily penetrated and when this is done the ;larm is turned on as if the combina- tion or door had been tempered. Many thought that the alarm could be sil- enced by cutting the wires connect irg the power from the vault to the siarm. For this an especial device las teen arraneed. In the alarm power which when the wires are tapped, will ~"',' the large gong for seventy ho,'~- T. held hack.

The electrical alarm protection is considered a tri- llmph of the safemaker's art and in- aenuity.
 The alarm was installed some time ago by the American Bank Protection Company, of Minneapolis, Minn., and yesterday it's special representative, R. A. Sweetland, spent the entire day in the bank demonstrating and exhibiting the excellent features of the new alarm. It was announced that after the demonstration alarms in future the alarm would only be heard in the case of an attack on the safe
