All that tho public can seo ' of this alarm equipment Is a metal box on the front of tho building,, as tho heurt of this ingenius system is inside the vault, and is connected with several other sensitivo devices . throughout th building, where a bank robber might try to force an entrance. Tho nlarm is attached to tho pro toctlve devices throughout the sys tern in such a way that the slightest Interference ut any point, by friend or foe, will cause the shrill siren to send forth its unusual warning, and cause tho intruder to leave the prenv Ises as surely and quickly ns If a vol ley of muskets exploded In the air. No amount of ingenuity on tho part of a robber will help him tho slight est, Tho removal of even a singlo screw from the cuslng of tho outside metul box will sound tho ulurm. A half-inch turn of tho combination cutting wires lnsldo tho bnnk, or in tho basement even npplk-utton . of heat to tho vault .door. In fact, any Interference with tho protective sys tem of tho bank ut any point, will sound the nlarm. As tho number of bank attacks In crease, and more banks equip with modern electric nlarms, it becomes evident thnt unprotected banks in horlt alt tho risk of becoming victim ized by yeggs. Tho officers of the local bnnk are to bo congratulated In ndopting this safety. An ounce of prevention is certainly worth a hundred pounds of cure in this case. RINGSIDE, Mny 12.
