There le Little Danger These Days of

The British crown jewels are
guarded in the Tower o f London.
At great cost the section o f the
tower wherein these famous gems
are kept has been made impregnable'

tons are placed in the governor’ s
room at Scotland Yard and at other
points known only to a few respon
sible officers.
Even the massive
gates of the middle tower, which
weigh several tons, may be closet
by electrical procesé in order than
no one within the tower may pasa
out. At the same time there woult
ring an alarm bell to warn the ward
ers, police and soldiers to prepare
themselves for any emergency,
In other days several attempts
were made to steal the crown jewels.
A Colonel Blood actually succeedet
in getting possession for a time o f
the crown and scepter o f the Unit

that led to
the adoption o f an elaborate series
of precautions to guard the treas
ure. There is a special military
guard o f picked men, who give and
receive a countersign that is chang
ed every four hours. In addition,
aside from the electric alarm aya-
| tem mentioned above, there is
! rigid system o f visiting patrols, etc.
The most valuable o f the jewels
are secured by a massive iron grat
ing, the keys o f which are held by
the lord chamberlain, out of whose
custody they are Supposed never to
pass. Curiously enough, this ap
parent superfluity of caution once
nearly resulted in the destruction
o f the entire collection by the great
fire that threatened the tower in
1841. The flames had attacked the
jewel house itself before the keeper
succeeded, with the aid o f a crow
bar, in forcing an admission to . the
house, so he might hand out the
jewels to the firemen and police in
waiting.— New Y ork Presa.
