, Vi. DlckfrniHD, of the UnitM State
Treatiiry Votintfrfcit Detector, hns been
giving a New York 7'imn reporter somo
valuable and interesting information
about tho various counterfeits of United
States coins: "There are," he said,
"twenty distinct coins of tlio United
States. Five of these nre nickel, or
nickel, copper, and bronze; nine aro
silver, and six are gold. All but one
have been counterfeited again and again.
The gold coins are the double eagle or
twenty-dollar riece, the englo, half
eagle, three-dollnr picco, quarter encrle,
and dollar. The double eagle, fresh from
the mint, weighs 510 grains, or more
than 100 grains more than the standard
ilver dollar. An abrasion of 2.58 grains
is allowed before the coin is classed as a
counterfeit, or rather 'light weight,' and
unless artificially reduced it should con
tinue current half a century. Coinnge
of double eagles was begun in 1850, and
up to June 30, 1S8:5, 48,83!,503 pieces
had been issued. Tho enly counterfeit
of the double eagle so far discovered is
of tho 1850 issue. It weighs 360 grains,
nd is composed of 571 parts of gold, 83
of silver, and 344 of copper. Its actual
value is $8.83. It is lighter in appear
ance than the genuine, though thicker.
The reeding and milling are defective, as
is the case with most counterfeit coins.
The coinage of eagles begau in 1793,
and up to June 30, 1883, 13.109,272
pieces had been issued. Tho coin
weighs just half as much as a doublet
eagle, will stand a proportionate abra
sion, and ought to continue current
thirty-five years. Prior to 1834 tho
mint weight of the eagle was 270 grains.
Counterfeits of tire issues of the caglo
nro in circulation, namely of the issues
1841, 1847, 1849, 1853 and 1880. That
of 1847 is the most dangerous, as it
weighs only six grains less than tho gen
uine. "The genuine half eagle weighs, when
it leaves the mint, 129 grains, and will
stand a reduction of .(54 grain. It ought
to remain current twenty years. Coin
age of the half eagle was" begun in 1793,
and up to June 30 of last year 59,913,
196 pieces had been put forth. There
are thirteen counterfeits of the half
eagle, some of which are well executed
and very dangerous. The counterfeits
are of the issues of 1800, 1803, 1839,
1843, 1844,1847, 1848, 1841, 1855,1858,
1809, 1875, 1881, (two) and 1882.
"There are no counterfeits of the
three-dollar gold piece, which was first
coined in 1854, and weighs 77.4 grains.
The maximum of abrasion is .38 grain.
The quarter caglo was first coined in
17ii0, and ought to lost fifteen years. It
weighs 64.5 grains, and the limit of
abrasion is .32 grain. There are seven
counterfeits six of which were made in
molds and are from 10.0 to 24.5 grains
light, lhey are of the issues of 1849,
(two counterfeits,) 1844, 1840, 1853 and
1861. A counterfeit of 1802 is mle of
platinum, is only half a grain light, and
can only be detected after the plating
has worn off or by acid. It is the on.y
dangerous counterfeit quarter eagle.
"Hold dollars were first coined in
1849 and up to Juno 30 of last year 19,
371,304 pieces had been issued. The
mint weight is 25.8 grains, and tho limit
of abraison is .13 grain. There are coun
terfeits of the issues of 1831, 1852, 1853,
1854, 1850, 1857 and 18C1. Tho first
four weigh, respectively, 17, 14, 24 and
15 grains. They are made in a mold, and
are heavily plated. The last three weigh,
respectively, 13, 14, and 15 grains. They
are made of brass and bronze, and, like
all the counterfeit gold dollars, may be
readily detected by their light weight
and general appearance."
"All this is very interesting," said the
reporter, "but there aro several persons
who don't handle enough gold to be
alarmed at the prevalence of counter
feit. What about silver?"
"Every silver coin now in circulation
has its counterfeits. Even the buzzard
dollar has not been deemed unworthy of
' imitation. Trade dollars were coined
from 1873 to 1878. They weigh 420
grains. Every issue has been extensively
counterfeited. Most of the counterfeits
are over 100 gr.iins light and have a
opyi greasy feeling, 'l hey arc made of
type metal and pulverized glass. The
two most dangerous counterfeits of the
trade dollar are dated 1877, and bear tho
mint marks, "s" and "c c." They nre
only three grains light and are actually
worth fifty-seven cents. They are made
of silver, mercury and German silver,
and, except for a defective ring, are
nearly perfect. Standard dollars were
first coined in 1794, and then as now tho
mint weight was 412.5 grains. Many of
the old issues were counterfeited.
The composition used was generally
German silver. Others were
made of brass, and plated with
genuine silver. Coinage of the Bland
standard dollar was bcyun in 1878. All
the issues since that timo have been ex
tensively counterfeited, tho usual cora-
Eosition beiDg antimiy and lead,
eavily plated. They are made in a
mold and are usually 100 graius light.
There are, however, several counterfeits
of tho standard dollar which are nearly
full weight and are very dangerous.
They are almost perfect imitations. Tho
ring is a little defective. Half dollars
prior to 1837 weighed 208 crams. From
1B37 tfl 1853 the weight was 200.25
grains. Tho present weight is 192.9
trains. There are probably more coun
terfeits of half dollars atloat than of any
other coin Most of them aro made of
brass, lead, pewter and type metals in
varying combinations and proportions.
The most dangerous counterfeit halves
bear date of 1841, 1843, 1843, 1845, 1849,
,1837, 1839, 1800. 1873, 1875, 1870 and
1877. Most of these coins are lighter
than tho genuine and have a sharp rinir,
as if they were made of glass. The mill
ing and reeding is defective, and the let
tering on the shield of tho Goddess of
Liberty is not good.
i "A genuine bilver ouarter dollar weighs
96.45 graii.8. Frior to 18J7 the weight;
as 104 grains, and from 1837 to 1853
fhe weight was 103.125 graius. The
most daugereous counterfeit aie of 1853,
1854, 1805, 1857, 1858, 1800 and 1801.
Brass, tin, pewter and lead are the ma
terials generally used. The counterfeits
are in ado in a mold, and except that the
'dlog and milling It defective, and that
the later counterfeits have a greay, slip
pery feeling, thoy are not ens ly detected.
"The coinnge of twenty-cent pieces
began in 1973 and closed in 1878. Tlio
genuine coin weighs 77.16 i;raitvftnd the
few counterfeits which have been put in
circulation are very poor pieces cf work.
Counterfeit dimes are very common,
brass, pewter, and lead being generally
used. The genuino coin weighs 38.58
grains. The counterfeits are usually
very rough looking coins,, The half-dime
weighs 19.2!) grains. A few wretched
counterfeits aro in circulation. Coinngo
of the genuine began in 1793 and ceased
in 1873. Counterfeits of tho three-cent
niece aro usually well plated and calcu
lated to deceive. Coinage of threo cent
pieces began in 1851 and ceased in 1873.
The weight is 11.52 grains.
"The minor coins of tho United States
are tho five, three, two and one cent
pieces. All but tho twos have been
counterfeited. There iR a dangerous
counterfeit of tho five-cent piece of 1875,
made of the same material ns that used
in the United States Mint. Coinage was
begun in 1800 and still continues. Tho
standard weight of tho coin is 77.10
grains. Coinage of three-cent pieces
began in 1805 and still continues. The
standard weight is 20 grains. There are
numerous counterfeits, but as most of
them nro made in a mold they are easily
detected. Fives nnd threes are made of
nickel. Two cent pieces were first
coined in 1801. Tho coinage ceased in
1873. Tiie weight is 90 graius. Cop
per cents were first coined in 1793, and
there are no dates later than 1857. The
weight is 48 grains. Most of the coun
terfeits wero made for the cabinets of
numismatists. The genuine coin is com
posed of copper, nickel, and bronze.
"The United States Mint test for sil
ver is a solution composed of 24 grains of
nitrate ot'ver, 20 drops of nitric aci,
and one ounce of water. A drop will
blacken a counterfeit, while it will have
no effect on silver."

A Mine of Mummies.
In the northeastern delta of tho Jule,
on the banks of a canal which connects
Zagazig with Lake Menzaleh, are found
two places named San Arab San and
San-el-Hagar. San-el-IIagar pertiaps
tho most extraordinary spot in Egypt
is a city of the dead. It was a magnifi
cent capital, more splendid in some re
spects than Thebes. The canal was then
a noble river. The neighboring lake was
a fertile plain studded with tonus and
temples. Is'ow the city, as its name in
dicates, is a heap of ruins. San-el-llagar
means "Spa of the Stones." Its an
cient iif.nio was 'Tsan. We
find it so written in the
hieroglyphs. The Hebrews converted
'Tsan into Tarda. Tho nl
unexplored till the late Marietta Pacha,
with small means and few men, first at
tacked the site of the principle temple
in 1881. From timo to time, when a few
hundred of fraucs could be spared from
other enterprises, he continued tho work,
and his efforts wero rewarded by this dis
covery of a vast treasure of broken obe
lisks, sphinxes, shrines, architraves, col
umns and statues of gods and kings.
Somo few of these statues (most notably
those attributed by Marietto to tho
Ilyksos period) have been trans
ported to the Boulak museum.
Some have found their way to the
Louvre. The rest, in countless pro

The Cingalese.
All the people in Ceylon, lrom babes
just "feeling their feet" to old men and
women, .their steps tottering on the
brink of the grave wear gold and silver
ornaments. They even invent new
places for carrying them, and it is uo un
common thing to boo a Cingalcso belle
with the top of her cars covered with
gold plate or wire, a large pair of rings
pendant from the lobes of the ear. a "old
or silver circlet round her hair, her nose '
adorned with rings, bracelets on her :
wrists, rings on her fingers, and silver
plates ou her toes. This is the, per- I
fectiou of udornment; but in one or!
other of tho fashions, or in several of
them, the Cingalese woman, of whatever '
station in life, is set forth. I saw run- I
ning out of a house a sturdy littlo boy
two years of ago who had nothing on
but a silver key fastened around his
waist by a girdle of silver wire. The
men take their pleasure loss expensively.
They delight in gold earrings and rings,
but beyond this ure contented to intrust
the recommendation of their personal ap
pearance to a fino tortoise shell comb of
circular shape, set on the crown of their
heads, with the ends toward the fore
head. The men evidently pride them
selves on their hair, which is generally
drawn back from their forehead and ticl
in a ueat knot at tho back. As they
wear earrings, and not always whiskers
or mustache, it is not easy at first sight
to distinguish a man fiom a woman.

What a Bather Can Do in Salt Lake.
A bather can lio on the surface of tho
water of the Great Salt lake without ex
ertion; or, by passing a towel under his
knees and holding tho two ends, he can
remain in any depth of we.ter kneeling,
with the head and shoulders out of
water; or, by shifting it under tho sohs
of the feet, he can sit on the water. The
ono exertion, in fact, is to keep one's
balauce; none whatever is required to
kect? afloat. The only dancer, there
fore, arises from choking by accidental
ly swallowing .some of the water, for the
strength of the brine ia so intense thnt
the muscles of tho throat are convulsed,
and strangulation ensues. Suit Lake

A Louisvillo (Ivy.) firm has made a
$2,000 watch for an Indian quack doc
tor. An caglo shot in Lapland had attached

The original Mexicans, it is said, lived
in a country north of California Until
about tho year A. D. 1100, when they
began their migration southward toward
the country of Anahuac. After a tem
porary rcsidcuco at several intermediate
places, they arrived on the borders of
Lake Teacuco, and founded a city. They
first erected a temple for their god, Un
it zlopcchti, around which they built huts
of reeds and rushes.
King Charles I., of England, had a fa
vorite dwarf named Hichard Gibson, who
was hardly more than a yard high, and
the king's wife, Queen Henrietta, had a
lady-dwarf who was exactly the an mo
height, and these two little peoole Were
married to each other. Tho king and
queen wero at the wedding: the queen
gave the bride a little diamond ring as a
bridal-gift, nnd the court poet wrote a
poem about the marri"jo.
The faces of Europeans, as a rule, are
broader than those of Americans. The
common distance in this country between
the centers of the eyes is three and three
eighths inches, lint among foreigners it
is three inches nnd a half. Sometimes
this is increased from one to three-eighths
of an inch more. If spectacles are worn
with the frames too narrow, the focus of
ono eye conflicts with that of the other,
and an clToct is produced very similar td
that of being crosseyed.
Optical Illusions.
Frank Cellew says in SI. JS'khohu: Many
of you know about optical illusions, and
the curious mistakes which the eye some
times makes concerning an object al
which it is looking; but few of us know
how frequently we ourselves aro tho vic
tim of optical delusion of ono sort or nu
ol her. Tho fact is, we see nearly as much
with our experience as we see with our
eyes. We know an object to be of a cer
tain form in ono position, and of a cer
tain color in one light; and wo are too
apt to fancy that we fee it of that form
and color in all positions and lights, re
gardless of the fact that, seen i'rom an
other standpoint, the contour of it may
appear entirely dillerrnt, and that a dif
ferent light niav totally change the color
of it. We all know that the actual color
of clean boots is black, and a beginner in
painting almost always paints them per
fectly black, whereas the direct rays of
the sun or of an artificial light may make
them appear nearly whito in parts; whilo
if they be placed near somo bright sub
stance, such ns a piece of orange peel, or
a crimson scarf, they will reflect the color
of that object, and so become orantre or
red in parts, and an exiert painter
would so represent them. Wo hear peo
ple speak of 'the white of the eye," and
begiuners with the brush often give a
very ghastly expression to their attempts
at portrasture by painting tho white of
the eye pure white; whereas, owing to
the projection of the brows, tho lids, and '
the lashes, it is often thrown into deep
shade, and my be even darker than some
of tho flesh tints. Now, if their eyes
were trained like those of a skilled artist,
they would know the true color of all
ocjects they beheld. But this is the very
hardest thing an artist has to learn.
namely, to know really what he does
see.
In coloring, almost everything depend
upon the nature of the light. A white
handkerchief is black in a dark room.
An excellent aid to the study of color
is to take a white card, and with your
paints try to match on it some tint in
any oil painting, chromo, or even colored
fabric which you may have. Then cut a
small hole in the card adjoining youi
tint, and place the card over tho tint you
have copied, so that you can see it
through the hole, sido by side with youi
own attempt. Then you will see at once
how nearly you have matched the tint.
Proof of Death.
If most people are afraid of anything,
it is of being buried alive. That cases do
happen where it is very difficult even for
the experienced physician to determine
whether a person is really or but appar
ently dead, without his having recourse
to means which, whilo they would at
once settlo the dispute, would place life,
if it leally still existed, in jeopardy, may
be judged from the fact that the French
academy, some ten or fifteen years ago, of
fered a prize of 40,000 francs ($8,000) for
the discovery of somo means by which
even the inexperienced may at once de
termine whether in a given case death
had ensued or not. A physician ob
tained the prize. He had discovered the
following well-known phenomenon: If
the hand of tho suspected person is held
toward the candle Or other artificial
light, with the fingers stretched, and o.io
touching theother.aud one looks through
tho spaces between tho lingers toward
the light, there appears a scarlet red color
where the fingers touch each other, due
to the still circulating fluid blood, as it
shows itself through the transparent, not
yet cougested tissues; but when life is
extinct, this phenomenon at once ceases.
The most extensive and thorough trials
established the truth of this observation,
and the prize was awarded to its discov
erer. Health and Home.
