TOWER OF LONDON.
The Perfect System by Which It*
Treasure* Are Guarded.
The Tower of London hcs the most
perfect system of burglar alarms that
has yet becu devised.
From Scotland Yard, from the gov
ernor's headquarters and from other
places known only to a few respon
sible officials the whole Tower can be
closed electrically within a few sec
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 partlculur 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, whereupon the heavy door
closes, the alarm bell below rings, the
other Rates slam to and lock, and every
person within the tower is instantly
cut off from the outer world.
"The man who can get away wjth
any of the crown Jewels deserves
them," observed a Tower official.
"From where I am standing 1 could
close every Important door and gate
In the Tower In as short a time as it
takes to utter these words."
It was mainly to insure the safety
of the crown Jewels that the system
was installed.
Xo order had been issued for the
closing of the Tower on a 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 it to do so we do not know. It
might have been Scotland Yard, where
the pressing of a button would im
prison every soul within the Tower un
til the police gave the signal for their
release, or it might have been the
governor, anxious to learn whether we
were all at our posts. At any rate, it
was none of the minor officials.
"In fact, who closed the Tower and
why is a secret known only to the
highest authorities. There was no
alarm, no attempt to seise the crown
Jewels."? London Mall.
MADE THE MOST OF IT.
Clever Tactic* When William Quit
Uaing Tobacco.
An excerpt from Doris* letter: "And,
oh, Will, if you weren't the dear
est boy! You often told me that
you would do anything in the world
for me, and now you write for my
sake you've quit smoking. I'll have to
wait until I see you to tell you what a
dear I think you are."
From Janls: "You write that out of
consideration for me you have stopped
smoking for good. That was Just love
ly of yon, William, and you may de
pend that I greatly appreciate it."
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 Marjorle: "To think that
you've quit smoking, William! I was
so surprised! Of course I 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: "Will, my son,
this proves your love for me. Father
Is inclosing a check to sliow that he
appreciates the fact that you think
enough of your parents to give up
smoking for them."
From his doctor: "Your letter ad
vising me that you have obeyed my
orders and stopped the uso of tobacco
is at hand. As I said, your compli
ance ? ? ?."?Puck.
THE CAMERA.
8ome of the Wonderful Things of
Which It Is Capable.
The camera, which divides time into
thousandths of a second and records
tho impressions of each, makes perma
nent pictures of events which pass too
quickly for the dull human retina to
recognize. It is only through tVe cam
era that the motions of tho wings of
flying birds and of the legs of swift
running animals have been analyzed.
To the camera the fuzzy drivers of the
swiftly speeding locomotives stand
out clear cut and stationary, while i
each flying drop of rain in the driven j
storm is distinct and seems frozen in i
Its place. The tarpon fisherman, fa- I
miliar with the first wild leap of the ;
frenzied fish as it casts hook and bait
fifty feet in the air. sees first in the
finished picture tho outstretched gills,
tho convulsive opening and closing of
which had escaped his eye. however
closely he may have looked for it. j
Often tho eye of the camera will de- j
cipher documents of which the writing j
had been substantially obliterated by j
age. and I have successfully copied |
with the camera the utterly faded pho
tograph of a classmate of forty years
previous and thereby been enabled to
present to a grizzled veteran a like
ness of his curly haired youth.
Changes in the pigment of tho skin
undiscoverable by the eye appear with
distinctness on the sensitive plate, and
it Is said that ample warning of ap
proaching disease has been thereby
given.
By means of the invisible rays lying
beyond the violet of the spectrum ob
jects may be photographed In the dark
ness and, with the aid of the so called
X rays, through substauces otherwise
opaque. When from the darkness of
night aud storm the forked lightning
flashes, tho camera makes a vivid and
permanent picture of each fiery trail.
Creatures that travel by night can bo
"caught" in the brief blaze of a mag
nesium charged pistol, the flash of
which is of too short duration for the
creature to move or the dull human
eye to recognize the subject? A. W.
Dimock in Van Norden's.
JAPAN A LAND OF COLOR.
Farm* of Two or Three Acres Divided
Into Many Tiny Fields.
Land is so scarce in Japan and the
people so numerous that a farm rarely
consists of more than an aero or two.
These little farms are divided up into
tiny fields. During the season of the
year in which we made our journey one
of these fields was filled with sprout
ing barley, light green in color; anoth
er field, perhaps the next, with vetch,
a lavender colored, cloverlike fodder;
a neighboring field with a dark green
grass from the seed of which a lamp
oil is manufactured; another with the
pale yellow flowers of tho mustard,
and scattered here and there fields
filled with what looked like a variety
of lily, some white, some red, somo
yellow, but all equally brilliant
Then to get the complete picture you
must Imagine patches of flowering
uzaleas dotting tho roadside; towering,
round topped camellia trees breaking
tho sky Hue with frequent splashes of
bright green; usually in the shade of
these trees houses with white plastered
walls and red tiled roofs; about the
more pretentious of these houses white
plastered walls, above which appeared
a profusion of palms, roses and strango
native flowers, and in the doorways
of the garden walls kimono clad Japa
nese girls, tho kimonos as many and
as gayly colored as tho garden that
framed them.
I have traveled in but one other
country that Is so gayly colored, and
that was some few years ago, when, in
the company of a number of other
youngsters and an evil smelling magic
lantern, I used to make frequent visits
to the Land of Primary Colors.?
