BURT'S BOOR TELLS TALES Oklef of Polico Donnhuo ii Intereittd Jottings in Momorindnm Book. in EVIDENCE DENOTES COUNTERFEIT WORK Lllilc Volume Itrplcln itKIi l'urmulnn for Vnrluiift Ml it lire of .tidal Hurt In livlUcntly a Stuilcnt. Thoro han recently como into possession at Chief Donahuo an Interesting little nouvcnlr In tho Daturo of a pocket account book, formerly tho property of u well known counterfeiter known aa F. C. Uurt, altan Nicholson. Thrcu weeks ago Hurt was arrested In a down town hop Joint l.y Dntoctlvo Kavayc. Ilo was dotnlncd In jail until Monday of this week, and as there dovoloped In tho incantlmo no ovldonco of his having transacted any crooked buiil nena hero ho wan given un hour by thu po llen Judgo to lcavo town. During his Incarceration, however, his room on Thirteenth struot near Cass street was thoroughly searched for evidence, nnd nmong other nrtlcleH thu account book was found. It Is a Hmull lcathorbouuil, in doxed volume, dogeared and greasy from much handling, and Is lltoriilly full of such tochnlcul Information as a burglar or coun terfeiter might need. Tho greater part of 11 Is devoted to formulas for tho composi tion of motal alloys, presumably for uso In counterfeiting. I'ages written lu a tine, roppor-plato hand bespeak for Hurt no mean skill as u metallurgist. Hero are Homo samplo paga headings: "White Metal Formula," "Solders, Composition Of," "Al loys of Certain Specific Oravity," "Fusion J'olnt of Metals," "Jeweler's Alloys," "Fus iblo Alloys," "(lold Alloys," nnd tho like. I nilcrxliiiiilH It TlmroiiKlil' "Nlckol," hu writes, "Is both ductllo nnd malleable. Its spccillc gravity is 0,000 118. Initial parts of nlckol nnd copper form u red, ductile alloy." And again, "Mk (1 Huckctt'H patent, Juno 11, 1SG7 cream of turtar 8 ot., saltpeter, 1 ot.; melt nud add melted copper 8 oz., borax 1 or.., zinc I oz., putty 1 oz." What tho result of this weird compound Is ho neglects to tttnto. Thoro Is much other Interesting Informa tion relating to matters other than counterfeiting. For example, ho has writ ten nut a Utile showing tho permutations of craps. Another seems to refer to tho division ot spoils between himself nnd four pals, ono of whom rcelvcd $4, 4G5. There is tho diagram of n house, with n bedroom mnrked with an "X." Ono entry Is "IlonJ. Allen, 141-3 Statu street tools." On ono of tho pages aro tho outlines of eight largo keys, such as aro used In locking vnults, nnd on another nro tho dlugrnms of three skeleton keys. These evidently were mndo by laying tho originals upon tho paper nnd tracing around them with n lead pencil. Ono pago Is headed, "Hooks," and under this Is a single entry, "Cntnlllo, by Dumas." Hurt, n Hlcmlcr, lmtchet-faced man, Is linovfn to the pollco ns an all-round crook, with special reference to counterfeiting nnd burglary. Three years ago ho waa bound over in Omaha for nttemptlng to poss n. forged chock, but tho stnto failed of con Tlctlon lu tho district court nnd Hurt went to Iowa, whero ho wns apprehended almost Immediately on n charge of passing counterfeit money. For this ho served a term at Sioux Falls. Later ho served a term ut Anamofa for burglary. Ho has also served time In tho Lincoln penitentiary for burglary, but was pardoned.

HAYDEN BROS MUST VOUCH FOR WATCHMEN Speclnl OMcrrx Herenfler .11 nut lie Properly Iteooiiiiueiideil unit l'nrnlah I? I.OIIO llmid. Tho Hoard of Flro nnd Pollco Commis sioners, at Its meeting Monday night, passed a resolution to tho effect that all block watchmen nnd special pollco officers must hereafter furnish nn application signed by at least flvo property owners In tho district wherein they nro employed nnd also a bond for $1,000 each. Tho purposo ot this Is to placo tho special officers under control of tho commlssslon, to tho end thnt there may bo fewer burglaries hereafter in the business districts. Tho board has had this project In view for some time, but the Pcaso Hros. robbery Saturday night fastened It to nn Issue. "Tho present method of employing wntenmen and sneclal officers la ntitlrnlv unsansractory," said Chief Donahue "Men nro cneaced for this servlrn hv in. dlvlduals and firms who havo no means of Know-ins and apparently tako no troublo to ascertain their general eharnr.ter nr antecedents. They nro employed for n snort tirao nnd then discharged. Hclng angry on nccount of tho dismissal, having a special ofllccr'a star nnd being familiar with tho buildings formerly entrusted to their enro, they havo tho best possible equipment for committing burglary. Reg ular ofllccrs on tho bent probably don't Know ot tno special officer's dismissal, so tho latter ii allowed full sway. What better opportunity would n man of crim inal Instincts want than that of trying doors nnd windows at all hours of tho night?
