AMMONIA FOR BURGLARS. Cincinnati Tribune. A druggist in Brooklyn was held up in his store and happened to f h iw a la.s of ammonia on the ounter, which he dashed on the visitor's face, and the fellow ran, smashing through a glass door, do in" himself gre-it mischief. He had a companion so amazed hehesistat-1 ed when a second glass of the elixir hit him squarely on the nose with j another dose of the aromatic fluid ami paralyzed him with pain and terror on the spot, so that he was taken a helpless prisoner. The holdfast robbers were for a while discouraged. The burglar bomb ought to be prepared for action by an enterprising firm, the bottles of assorted sizes and used according to directions, which might be blown into the glass. The banks should be equipped with the bomb. They are at short range much more cer tain to go to the right spot 'than jpistol shots. SOME RECIPES.
