the panel, you can't hardly tell
the difference.
Some of the men in my BUSH
ness get into a house by using a
diamond glass cutter and a rub-
Der vamp as big as your hand with
string in the middle of it. They
sneak up to window at night and
cut six-inch circle in the top
pane right over the window latch.
Then they wet the vamp, plant it
'oVer the circle and pat 1T down till
1t sucks itself on tight. Then they
puda the Stirring easy like and tap
the glass with their finger. First
thing you know they've got a nice
little round hole i'm the glass. Then
they open the latch and lift the
window.
There's just one way to keep
the burglar out of your house for
keeps" and that with a burglar
alar mthat's put i'm right. It's
liable to cost you a lot, but if you
cam afford it, it's "a great thing.
Make sure that the man fits up
every window and outside door
with it. II a door opens at night
or a window dis opened, off goes
your alarm. You wake UP and
the burglar runs. Then you re
safe. He'll never come back.

GETTING INTO THE HOUSE.

pincers small enough to get into
the keyhole. Why, your kind of
locks are easy. Ala a mans got to

thin steel, about three inches dong

the sash. rdgIht ON the level with
the lock. The ''shiv" works like
wedge and pushes the spring
lock back. But this Is another
game you cam beat every time.
Take a look at that Spring lock
of yours. There's a catch right
on the face of it, and that locks
the bolt in place when it's moved.
Nine people out of ten don't know
what the catch is there for, and I
never struck a spring lock yet
where this cat1ss was down. When
you go to bed see that that catch
Is down. Then there's no chance
for "a man to work the "shiv."
Another nifty way some of the
fellows have of getting into a
house is by using keyhole saw,
about ten inches long, half AN inch
wide at the handle and tapering TO
fine point. The police call the
fellows who use them "keyhole
burglars. They usually work on
the back door; drill hole in the
upper door banel nearest to the
lock. Then stick the saw into the
hole and saw a circle out of the
panel big enough to get your arm
through. The panels only about

If You keep the saw oiled up a

Lots of times it's the stiffest

a house after you've picked it out.
But this kind OF comes to be sec
ond nature with a mann. 1t takes
lots of practice, though, to "get

place without making enough
noise to wake everybody up.

glar has some good pal around to
give him the high sign IL cop

orally stands ON the corner while
the burglar walks up to the house
he's going to get into, just as bold
as brass.
The first thing he does is to
see If the keys i'm the lock. He
kinda laughs to himself and pulls
out a pair of thin-jawed pincers
from a belt of tools under his
coat. The inside jaws of the
pincers are roughed UP so that
they can catch hold of the end of
the key. He sticks these thin
pimcers Through the keyhole and
gets the end of the key in the
jaws. Then he squeezes the han
dies hard and turns the key from
the outside. But you can beat
him at this game.
Don't leave amy keys to outside
doors in the locks. Take 'em out

oUlNcY'S FINE RECORD.
Will Have Distributed Over $4,000, 900
When 81 Dividend is Paid.

With the payment of the 81 dividend
recently declared, the Quincy Mining
Co, will have distributed to stock
holders more than $19,OO0,OOO since di-
vidends were inaugurated in 1868. The
largest amount paid in any single year
was the $1.4S5,00 in 1907, or $3.50 per
share on the 10000 shares outstand-
ing. In 1896 the payment was $40 per
share on $4,000 shares, or a total of
81, 900, 900. With the exception of the
years 1867 and 1868 when dividends
were passed, the dividend payments
have been continuous thus giving the
company a longer dividend record than
any other Lake company. The small
est dividend per share for many years
was SO per share in 1880; since that
date the smallest rate has been "a
per share.
II will be recalled that last year the
company produced 22,511,9s4 pounds
! ~ 100000 pounds as compared with
the previous year. For years the pro-
duction has been steadily increasing
in 1903 the total being less than 49,
| 500, 900 pounds. 1t is very likely that
for the current year the total produc-
ton will approximate that of last year
although it may show a slight reduc-
ton.
II cost the company about 105 cents
per pound last year to produce its cop
nor this cost heing after liberal Charg-
es for construction and the expense OF
sinking the new shaft. Considerable
attention is still being shown in devel'
! opment work, for the management be-
lieves that this is more in the form o
an investment than an expense. for thu
reason that 1t is figured that the i'm
provements in opening up coppe
ground will make for n reduction II
the cost of producing copper.
| With copper the metal selling
around 13 cents per pound, Quincy cal
earn on present costs better than $
per share on its 10000 outstandinI
shares. This, therefore, would tend Z
show that the cut in the dividend yes
terday was not on account of the s
rate not having been earned but, a
stated above. was due to the purchas
of the lands from the st. Mary's Min
eral Land Co.
The stock closed yesterday at 81
nj which price the yield on the presen
81 per share basis would be slight
less than $50 per cent.
