' This, with the explosions of nitroglycerine or dynamite used in committing the burglary, usually Intimidates the people of the entire village from attempting their capture or preventing attack. ' Eacape from the acene of attack la like the entrance, each burglar usually depart ing In a aeparate direction and agreeing to meet In aonie larger neatby city or in some uninhabited house or shack, or at acme unfrequented camp In the mountains or woods mllea distant, so that' their capture or Identification la Invariably difficult.

Consequently with his release the yegg renews his old vocation. The Intent of the yeggman before he commits hut crime Is murder If necessary. "Kill to avoid arrest and apprehension," la hla motto. He carries the best make of weapon, with sufficient rounds of ammunition to force escape, and enough explosives If properly used to demolish a building In which the attack la to be made and Igniting adjoining buildings to causa conflagrations resulting In some Instances In loss of life. A strong effort Is being made to secure the passage of laws which would fix the penalty of the bank burglar who uses ex plosives at Imprisonment for 1 a term of not less than twenty-five nor more than forty years. Buch a law haa been passed tn Maryland. It Is thought that It will settle the yegg problem. Bankers' Maga-sln. lassoriaat Mlaaoart Derlslna. BT PAL'U Minn.. April 20.

HOW STEEL PENS' ARE MADE Mick Skill aaa a Lot of Troable la. volved la Prod acl ear a v Simple Object. Pens are made of good ateel which Is rich In carbon. It la Imported In the form of sheeJa nineteen Inchea aide and five feet long. These are cut into strips wide enough to cut two pens whose points Interlap. In a lecture describing the proceas, an expert named Hawkes says that the steel la annealed to a light cherry red for several hours, then gradually cooled, when It Is soft enough to bend easily. The acals la removed by pickling the ateel In a bath of diluted acid. It then goea through the rolling mill, the number of tlmea depending upon the thlnneaa de sired. The next atep Is to the cutting room, where pen blanks sre cut by machines. On one aide of each blank la a amall dent, called the bit, which la used as a guide In passing the blanks through succeeding op erations. The pena are pierced by machinery, aome requiring but one piercing, others two or three, the latter being more ex pensive. Item the piercing machine tha pens go to the muffle room, where the blanks are annealed, ; Fifty or sixty gross of them ar placed In each Iron pot and heated and oooled Just m waa ths sUlp ot steel. .Tha aaa to then stamped on the blanks and the pen Is ready to be formed. 8ome pens have to be crushed, by which procesa a little wing of ateel la bent under them. If tha pen Is still soft it la necessary to take It to the muffle room and again htat It to a light cherry red and chili It suddenly. This procesa renders the pens quite brittle, so much so, Indeed, that they can be readily crumbled between the Angers. Later on this hardness la drawn out by heating the steel gradually. As the temperature rises It becomes more and more tough, until at about 678 cLegreea It has the resiliency of a spring. By thla time the pen haa become coated with an oxide, which la removed by scour ing or by a shaking process, by which the roughness Is gradually rubbed off. The next operation Is grinding, aome pens being ground twice, others three times. In some caaea by hand and In ether e by automatlo machinery. The pen next peases to the slitting room. This operation is a very delicate one, ss the pen la now hard and brittle and the alit must be cut cleanly through the hard ateel without damaging It In any way. After slitting the pena go to the round ing room, where they are made perfectly round and smooth, so that no matter at what angle the pen ia held the paper will be in a tangent to its surface and there will be no possibility of sticking or scratch ing. livery pea to new examined, by an axport. ao that the faulty pans which have accumu. lated may be thrown out, Thla U tha third examination. v The pena jiow go back to tha room In which the oxide waa removed ' to be pol lened by the shaking procesa. If they are to be colored they are placed in, a temper ing cylinder and heated to the desired color. The Bra heat brlnga thorn to a light straw color, a dark yllow, a brown, a purple and then a blue shads being obtained by Increasing the heat. IT the pen la to be left whit, ft ia, of course, not reheated. In order to preserve the pen and prevent It from rusting, a coat of lacquer Is put on by means of machines. If the pen Is to be plsted with copper or bronzo, sliver or sold, it goes to the plating- room befor th lacquering operation Is begun. PlaUd pens ar now very popular and they can b plated in almost Iny tuetal desiied. The pens ar now ready to go to th boxing room, where they are counted by ascertaining th weight. It will be found impossible to put a gross of pena In. the bei Intended for them unless they ar told parallel. In order to do thla quickly and easily they are put In a half cylinder and shakari. This quickly places them la a parallel poal tlon. and by a Very quick move they are dumped into the boxes, whldi are then ready to be labelled and packed. PblladeU phla Leder.
