One $4,000 Frill Cut
Off--There Are Others

Engineer Gronen, who supplant-
ed Frank Kelsey as Nisqualy pow
er plant engineer, lis cutting off
zoe of the frills at the power sta
tlon to be built at the foot of the
bluff for a generating room. He
is reducing the size of the room
and eliminating about 10000 OF
expense without impairing the
working of the plant at all.
The further the city gets into
Kelsey's plans the more expensive
1t is shown this $4,000 a year en-
gineer was. His SALARY was the
small part of his extravaganza.
The new Satisfaction for which
contract was let couple of weeks

tical purposes just as good for
$4,000. But Kelsey had i'm the

pressed brick floors and other ex-
traNagances were also common.
Citizens who have begun TO look
into the matter are condemning
the present commissioner for ever

vast sum into such a plant which

COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo,
Sept. 22.--Neither the stand-pat-

People seem to think that II

dows nobody can get in. They
leave their windows open all night
long. Did you ever see how a
screen is put on? It's put on from
the outside and all that holds il
in place are a few little knobs. All
mans got to do is to take off
the screen. It's a cinch. Screens'll
keep out flies, but they won't keep
out burglars.
Tip No. 3.-Have your
screens fixed up with inside
locks or have them screwed
to the casing.
Whenever a house has a screen
ed or vine-covered porch, burglar
can get at the front door and work
away at the lock without anybody
seeing him from the street. Lots
of burglars are SO clever about
picking locks that they just single

porch rather tina ngo in through a
window. I'll tell you something
about locks so you can fix your
doors almost burglar proof. Then
you can screen up the porches and
plant all the vines you want to.
This is kind of new-fangled
age. Everything's got to be up
to-date. These new two-tumbler
locks are pretty and look safe, but
they're just like an open book to
the burglar who knows. Kitchen
doors are even worse. When a
man builds house, he soaks SO

doors and buys 50-cent one for
his back door. l can get into nine
out of ten kitchen doors with a

BY BILL THE BURGLAR.

Suppose I was to ask you how
long it takes harness broke
burglar to get into a house ant
go through it?
You'd kind of laugh and say
"Well, about half anhour."
You'd be way off. 1t takes any
where from two days to two
weeks. A burglar takes days
sometimes, to get everything dowr
pat, and makes sure there's ne
chance of slipping up.
A burglar isn't a tramp. A
bum burglar may be, but a good
one isn't.
Tip No. 1-.DOn't trust
strangers around your house
no matter what kind of good
clothes they wear or how po-
lite they are. Don't take
chances.
The first thing one of us fel.
lows does after reaching a town is
to make tracks for the swell resi-.
dences and size things up. Out
In the tony parts of town there
aren't any coppers because there
aren't any DRINKS to pick up OF
any fights. Most of us fellows
won't try after any kind of a
house excepting two-story one
or one of these apartments.
A burglar is always looking out
for open cellar windows. You
see lots of them held open with O

ment. It's one of the easiest ways
of getting into house on record
Tip No. 2.-Keep those eel
lar windows closed and bolted
at night.
There's only one trouble with
getting into house this way. It's
easy enough to get in but it's q
stiff proposition getting out of the
place If you are caught before you

old-fashioned bolts, screw
them into your doors tight,
bolt them every night and
you're safe!
Lock the doors by key every
night. A burglar will spend some
time trying to work the lock.
When he's worked it, he finds a
good, solid. half-inch bolt between
him and getting in. He can't
reach it from the outside, and, of
course, can't get in.
Dogs aren't dangerous any
more. They're petted, fed and
pampered too much, but they're
liable to hear a burglar trying to
get in at night and raise an awful
howl. l used to have pretty
neat way of finding out whether
there was a bow-wow about a
house l was thinking of cracking
into. I'd go downtown and buy
a tin of dog biscuits. Then I'd
go out to this house and try to
sell them dog biscuits. If they
said, 1--WE don't need any. We
haven't got dog" I'd turn
around and say to myself, "Glad
to hear it."
Tip No. 5.-If you like
dogs, get one. They're liable
to break up n burglars game
some time or other.
Lots of burglars, well-dressed
ones, make it their business only
to get into a house when the
folks have gone to the theater.
They can be walking up and down
the street without anyone getting
suspicious, and see the people
leave home. I've seen people
time and again leave their door
keys under the door mat when
going to a show.
Tip No. Garry your key
with you when you go out.
Some day it'll be found-but
not by you.
A certain class of burglars
known as "wampuses" go to the
telephone directories and find a
name beginning with Miss" or
Mrs" That's fair proof, in most
cases, that widow or single
woman lives there, and these fell
lows rob their homes because they
know they won't run up against
man.
Tip No. IF you're a sin
gle woman don't let your
name go into the phone direc-
tory that way. Let your
friends call "information, for
your number, or use plain mi
tials, without ''Miss" or
'NIrs."
I'm going to tell how a burglar
breaks into a house in my next
story.

from the evidently unusual Sweet

account OF sanguinary battle fought
by quartet of mountain men, ovel
q feud about some land, which rivals
in ferocity the malignity and endur.
ance of wild beasts. The encounter
took place o fortnight ago, near
Lebanon, amid the wilds OF the

Frank Shannon. Having no weapons
the encounter was purely the thugs

for two hours, the men frequently

like prize-cocks, and renew the bloody
combat. Growing weaker towards
the last. with torn clothing and
faces beaten into almost an uprecog-
nizable mass, they presented pitiable
evidences of mans brutal origin. 1t

Education W. Prohibition.

| Miss Vivanne Lang, of St. Louis
daughter of L. j. Ling, who is the
son. of the firm of Lang & Co.
was the only woman delegate to the
National Convention of the Whole
sale Liquor Dealers lately held in
Cincinnati.
Miss Lang as might be expected
does not believe in Prohibition, and
seems as able to give good reason for
the faith she PROCESSES as her brother
man. She says she believes that
temperance and self-control should
be taught the individual. She de
clareS that this should be the policy
if people are to be self-respecting and
independent. She believes in the
model license law. which would cause
all saloons to be run on the same
basis whereby drink would be re-
fused to those who had enough
" Prohibition only means" said she,
" that if they are refused one place
they will get it some other way and
thus approach to a small extent the
life of a criminal.
Emil l.. Nathan of St. Louis, ad-
dressed the delegates of the same
line on Reorganization Education"
and showed that the people of this
country must be taught that the sale
of liquor in small quantities will not
harm either their health or their
pocketbook. Mr.. Nathan reviewed
the conditions of the country and
said that within a few years all
the territory now dry" will be vot-
ing wet" He cited many instances
where dry" territory has been
voted the opposite way and says that
the people have come to realize that
the prohibition wave was but a pass
ing thought.
An aggressive campaign against
laws was planned by the /
National Wholesale Liquor Dealers
Association. Previously delegates to |
the annual convention had listened |

that the association members had re-

WHOLE Town CELEBRATES NEGRO
LYNCHIYG.-.iS showing how negro
assaults upon white women are now
almost universally regarded by all
civilized communities, we have only
to note the fact that the act is fol-
lowed by immediate lynching.
While this act is generally marked
with stern determination and digni-
led decorum, Hot Springs, Ark, af-
fords an illustration of a jubilee held
in celebration OF having rid the
world OF one of these inhuman mon
sterS, on the previous night, a dem
OnStration that doubtless resembled,
in some respects, the pandemonium
that reigned when the census figures
were boosted a few weeks ago, by
q suspension Of the ordinary rules of
decency, peace and decorum, in our
own little city. 1t was on Wednes-
day, the 18th of this mouth, that the
Jubilee was held at Hot Springs. that
everybody was out for good time, pa
rading the streets, cheering, playing
musical instruments and making all
sorts OF noise. School vacations
were held. and the youngsters were
having the memorable time of their
lives. Hunter was dramatically
strung up for having entered the
home of Rosa Johnson and assaulted
her under the most despicable cir
which aroused q feeling |
of unparalleled resentment and the
was invited to take part
in the lynching and participate in
the jollification. 1t was probably a |
realization of this spirit developed in
negro character by strong drink, in
the South, that led the negro soldier,
at Fort Lawton, Nathaniel Bledser,
to assault Mrs. John Redding, at In
terbay. last week. and to implore a
speedy trial and conviction to afford
him the defense o. prison walls.

TIE DEWEY Dry Dock IN THE

made in Olongapo Harbor. Luzon, to
sink anG imperil the floating dry
dock sent to the Philippines in the
Spring OF 1905, noted in q previous
issue of this paper. has not yet been
authOritatively ascertained. but is
still supposed to have been instigated
by Japanese spies, who seem to be
turning up in many unexpected quar-
tiers. The necessity OF this aid for
protection Of our colonial possessions
was seen soon after the acquisition
Of the islands, and the immense I'M
dertaking of construction OF this
great naval achievement and floating
it half way around the world was be-
gun about five years ago, ut Balti-
more. 1t is 500 feet in length and
135 in width, costing 81 ,125, 600.
The sidewalks OF the Dewey-the
name of the dock-are AZ feet in
height and IA in width. These were
bridged and floated on three pom
toms, the center one being 800 feet
long, and the end pOntOons 80 feet
in length. Two million rivets were
required to fit the steel plates to-
gether. This largest floating dry
dock in the world was constructed by
the Maryland Steel Company, just
outside OF Baltimore. Congress paid
for its construction and also the in
cidental expenses OF its long trip to
destination.
