TRICKS IN BANK NOTES. B TORIES TOLD BY AN OFFICIAL IN THE NATIONAL TREASURY. Clover ConntfrfHt Detective Skill of Clerk Hedecmlng Mutilated B1IU Stories of Crime. A "Washington letter to the Xew York Mail and Er)i-et says: There is n white haired, sharp-eyed littla man in the Treasury who has been one of the features of the place for yours. Into this gentle man's hands, speaking metaphorically, I happened to fall, and it required no par ticular effort to'makc the olllcial talka tive lie was inspecting at the moment a spurious $100 note, and this circum stance gave rise to his first anecdote. ' I toll you," he said, "there is appar ently no limit to tho clever tricks of counterfeiters. Just look at this note. It doubtless deceived over a hundred Iicoplo before it enmo into our hands. I ;now for a fact that it was accepted as genuine by a bank teller in high stand ing, and yet tho instant a certain young woman in one of our departments let her experienced eye fall upon it, she detected its worthless character. The neat work manship on the bill reminds me of a case which came to our notice s mo time ago. A counterfeiter had got up a number of flOO notes on six separate banks. The copy used was on a bank which made its $ 100 notes in this style. On one end of tho paper was an engraving of a ship, the yard-arm of which ran between two delicate flourishes underneath tho word 'the,' which was tho first word of the name of tho bank of issue; as, for in stance. The National Bank of the He public, or The First National Bank. The fraud would have been a particu larly neat one had the counterfeiter made his notes piyable by the same bank from which he obtained his original specimen. Instead of being sufficiently shrewd, however, to avail himself of that precau tion, or perhaps through an excess of caution, lie made them payable by six other banks. Each of these latter insti tutions had one distinctive feature on their one hundred dollar notes. The yard arm of the vos9cl instead of running between tho two minuto flourishes barely touched the outside of tho flourish nearer the top of the note, and approached closer to tho word 'the' by the sixteenth, of an inch. Of course the counterfeit, which was a capital piece of workman ship, with the one exception mentioned, deceived merchants easily, and deceived many bank tellers as well. Tho moment the notes passed through the hands of a lynx-eyed young lady at the Treasury, she discovered their spurious quality in a twinkling." "It must be difficult, then," I re marked, "to hoodwink your clever fe male clerks?" "Yes, indeed, it is. Their eyes are so thoroughly educated as to make a mis take almost impossible." "How do they educate their eyes?" "By constantly running over money. To casually watch these women at work you would probably imagine that their solo aim was simply to count the money as rapidly as possible. Not so. A clerk will take a pile of bills, tightly fastened together by rubber bands, and without so much as loosening the fastenings,' she will begin to count at a lightning rate by merely turning over quickly the upper right-hand corner of each note. Still, though she has only such a small portion of the note for her guide, she will discover a counterfeit readily. Let me relate a little incident which hap pened while the Seventh regimvnt was in the city. Some of the boys, among .them a paying teller from a New York bank, paid us a call, looking very ele gant in their tasteful uniforms. They were engaged fcr several moments in watching the clerks count money in the manner described. Suddenly one of the young women snapped a note from the package which sh was running over. After the had thrown it aside in an ap parently careless manner, I picked it up and handed it to the visitors for inspec tion. It was passed from one to another without eliciting any special comment. Finally it reached the man whom I knew to be a paying teller. He examined it for a moment and returned it to my possession without a word. I asked lam if he had noticed anything peculiar in regard to it! He replied in the negative. And yet it was an ingenious counterfeit, as the experienced eye of the clerk had detected the instant she had turned up a corner of it." "Is it possible,'" I asked, "for a note to be so split in two as to show both ides of it intact?" "Oh yes, and it is very easily done. You procure a certain kind of gum, and paste the note face downward to a piece of paper. Then you paste another pieco of paper over the back of the note. By carefully pulling the two pieces apart tho fibre of the note will split, and what looks like a ditlicult transaction is easily t accomplished. Nothing, however, can be gained by the operation. If one-ha f of siuh a bill were forwarded to us for redemption, wo would return to the sender one-half of its face value. Shirp ers indulge occasionally in a little game which coexists of piecing notes. That is, they will make nine notes out of eight, eac h uoie being pieced once. When yen ( omo to measure them you will find that thty are precisely one-eighth shorter than they should be. .Merchants are readily duped by them, bnt rarely a bank cashier." "What is tho rule relative to the re demption of mutilated currency?" "We redeem nothing smaller than one half of a note, and we pay in proportion to the quantity of the note sent, except where there "is only one-tenth missing. In the latter case we pay the full face value. If you were to send us a one dollar note, one-quarter of which had bcon torn away, we would give you fe.enty-five cents for it. If within six months, not later, you succeeded in rc.-overinff the miss'ng part, we would, on its presentation, pay you twenty-five cents more. Suppose you brought us a shred of a note, with the edges singed, a'ld asserted that it was the remnant of a flOO bill which had accidentally been destroyed by tire. We would request you to make an aflidavit in support of your story. If you could etill further sub stantiate your statement by the affidavits of several reputable persons who hud witnessed the d: traction of the bill, we would then accept the shred and give you f. 100. Of course, people frequently try to impose, upon us, but the-yinwivU. ubly tome to grief. A man once sent us a lot of small pieces of various denomi nations which were very ragged looking. I He wrote that they were the remaining portions of bills which had been carried from his money drawer by mice and nib bled into shreds. They were turned over to some of the female employes, women so experienced that, although thry have only a tiny shred to go by, can tell posi tively from that shred the face value of the note of which it was a portion, its origin and tho date of its issue, even should there bn not a single letter or fig ure upon it. It took these experts only a trilling space of time to discover that tho nibbled fragments had formerly bo longed to counterfeits. However, as the sender had made no affidavit in the mat ter, he escaped punishment." "Can you show mo some curious speci mens of notes which have been re deemed ?" "Certainly. Hero Is an odd-looking affair which is a (1 note. A man care lessly loft it in the pocket of a white Test, which garment was shortly after both washed and ironed. You can imagine the state of a legal tender after undergo ing such a thrilling ordeal. Here is a $ 2 note pierced with four holes. It was found carelessly folded in the pocket of a murdered man. He had been shot several times, one of tho bullets tearing its way through tho folded note, which was shortly afterward sent hero for re demption by the dead man's' relatives. We did our best to alleviate their grief with a brand new bill.. Still another specimen comes from the Chicago fire. It is simply a quantity of-ashes pasted on a sheet of pnper, and represents a (I note. Your inexperienced eye cannot discern a figure or a letter upon it, but our clerks displayed little embarassment in recognizing it as an old friend. We received a vast amount of charred money from tho Chicago fire, and redeemed the larger portion of it. Apropos of fires, I recall an interesting case which occurred in 1870. In that year a steamboat was burned on the Mis sissippi. Among other valuables which went to the bottom of the river was an Adams Express safe containing over 1300,000. Tho company offered as a re ward to whoever would raise the safe one- half of such amount of its charred contents. as should be redeemed at the Treasury. A diver went to work and, after some trouble, landed his prize, which was at once forwarded to us. Our clerks found the numerous packages of money in a condition milch resembling bricks com posed of solidified ashes. This did not disconcert them in the least. They went faithfully at their tasks and, with the aid of exceedingly thin-bladcd knives, manufactured solely for this purpose, they patiently separated note from noto, or rather ashes from ashes, until they had completed their work with infinite honor. So well did they accomplish it that out of the original amount we were able to redeem $200,000." "How about destroying notes wbfWi have been withdiawn from circulation';" "AVe have destroyed in a single day $385,000,000." "What is the method of destruction?" "We have a curious contrivance which does tho work much in the same way as you would grind coffee. This has b:'en decided upon as the safest plan. We formerly burned it, but discarded that method for various reasons, one being that sometimes, after one of our periodi cal conflagrations, small shreds of charred notes would occasionally be found in the streets adjacent to the Treasury. The supposition was that draughts carried them from the furnaces up through the chimneys, and so into the outer air." A Sleepy Old English Village. An odd account is given by the Wntern Morning Neirt, of Yealmpton, an English village within seven miles of Plymouth, with a population of nearly a thousand : Newspapers are not delivered till thirty four hours after they are printed, and the delivery of letters is of a very meager kind. This obliges the inhabitants to resort to all sorts of shifts to obtain "a bit of news." Interesting items are scribbled on pieces of paper by those who travel from Plymouth to Yealmpton, and thee arc pushed under the doors of lead inhabitauts, who communicate the con tents to their neighbors. The vicar, who receives 480 a year, has long been practically past active work, and was not particularly active when he had health and strength. Services are conducted in a fashion on Sunday mornings and after- noons, yet they are of such a kind that few beyond the vicar's household attend. The vicar knows so little of his parish oners that quite recently he directed that somo clothing should bo sent from a local charity to a man whom ho had buried four years ago. Electrical Cremation. An electrical crematory is said to have been devised by a process described as follows: The body, being shro ;ded in sheets made of asbestos, is laid up in a frame composed of tire trick, while at the head and foot are large copper plates, to which the lidjpris fiom .specially con structed dynamos of largo cleitro-motive force are attached. The body apparently oceupies the po-ition of the filament in an incandescent lamp, and upon the cur rent being pas cd through .it, would be instantly carbonized; while, as the air would have free access to it, tin pr c;ss of destruction, or rather decomposition, would be immediate. The process ap pears to havo tho recommendation of great rapidity of action, and freedom from many of the objections to crema tion in the ordinary way, and admits of several little improvements upon all rec ognized forms of buriaj-i'V Prets. Against Arguing too Much. Here is an illustration of the line, "Striving to better, oft we mar what's wtii:" After defendant's counsel had con cluded his argument, the Judge said to plaintiffs, advocate, who rose to reply: "Mr. , the ("curt is with you." In stead of resuming his seat he resumed the argument, beginning in theso words: "Yes, your Honor, I knew you would bo with mo for the following reasons. lie then proceeded to a gue the case fully. When ho do e;l the Judge said: "After hearing all that defendant's able counsel could urge I was with the plain tiff. But now that I have heard a I that tilt p.hliBtitT'sHd vocal e has to say, I will take the case under advisement." A LITTLE SEASIDE BELLE. AN INFANT HEIRESS WITH A RO MANTIC IISTORx". "Worth $1,000,000, and a Great Traveler A Sironjr Fancy for Polls Her Wardrobe. A recent issue of tho Philadelphia Timet fays: There is now staying at tho Beach House, Sea Girt, N. J., with her mother, Mrs. Sharpstcen, formerly of Philadelphia, tho daughter of Mr. Abbott, a retired merchant, a lit tle girl, five years old,' who has crossed the ocean seven times, seen every European and American watering place of note, and is worth $1,000,000 in her own right. What is more, she is a beauty, is brim full of brightness ond in telligence, and should sho grow up to womanhood must make a noiso iu tho great world of fashion and society, where beauty and wealth, when com bined in a woman, excrciso such tre mendous sway. May Sharpstcen, the little baby in question, possesses outsido of these peculiarities a personal history that is equally interesting. llcr father was tho Taris part ner of Arnold Constable & Co., the great New York dry goods concern, and when he died there a few years ago ho left to this, his only child, his entire fortune Her mother, who has a fortune of her Tw.n, rcgaids the child as the greater trcasuro and lives but for the one object of bringing up the little girl 80 that she may bo able to adorn society and enjoy'., to tho greatest extent the unusual opportunities that will bo at her disposal, ftaving been born in Paris, and her father death occurring soonrtfter, Mrs. Sharpsteen brought the littiB girl with her across the ocean to Philadel phia, but after traveling with her here sho has three times, within as many years, returned to Europe and visited the German and French spas, tho Span ish, Italian and other resorts and the mountains of Switzerland, each time taking the child with her. She is a fine little traveler and loves the changes, but at times has shown a delicacy of health that, being very responsive to clnato influences, leads the mother to change her quarters as soon as her daughter be trays any indisposition. Accordingly, in this country she has frequently gone North in tho summer and South in the winter, so that it may be said there is probably not a mature person of extended social experience anywhere who has seen o man-vT the gay watering places of the world as thislittle maiden of fire summers. Mrs. Sharpsteen has found that Sea Girt, with its combination of sea air and dry pine woods, agrees with tho modern little Miss Ariel better than anywhere she has been, so that last sea' son she was there some time before going to Europe aud sho will spend most of this season there. Little May is a semi-brunette, with brown hair and eyes, a remaikably fino complexion and an exceptionally beauti tiful mouth, shaped like a Cupid's bow that species of mouth which has the kps parted wnenia repose and showing pearly teeth withinT'She is what is called "old-fashioned," having aeen .and heard so much traveling that her expressions and the action of her mind are at times startling, but she is, nevertheless, thor oughly a child and loves and seeks child companions. She has a wonderful Eng lish nurse, who was present at hMr birth and whose life seems wrapped up and blended in the child's, l uder the cir cumstances and with all the means awaiting her it is natural that this little American princess should have an unus ual wardrode, but more than once Custom-house officers have been astounded at the number and character of the trunks carried by the partjnd tho last time Mrs.. Sharpsteen arrive (in New York from Europe with eight sen trunks she found herself, to her gilat astonish ment, suspected of being a iTrsVious femalo smuggler for whom tho officers wero on the lookout. To begin with, Miss May had a passion for dolls, and she picked them up in every foreign country where she has been and not dolls only, but doll's wardrobes and every conceivable thing that can be thought of for doll house keeping. She has German dolls, and French dolls, and Flemish dolls, and Swiss dolls and Japanese dolls, blondes, brunettes, brides, peasantsjrf all sorts, complexions and sizes. TTuen she has everything in diminutive t fair fenrin inity clothes itself with the world over traveling suites, bridal trosseatv, seaside costumes, full evening dress aed chig nons, iJtfots nnd?"ves almost? beyond number. She maWs it a pointTti have gloves for every dolliq her collection and there is a glo-maker in Paris who makes them for her especially. This fancy extends to herself and is the one poiut about wlifr sho is particular. Never, except when4thig or sleeping, is she 6een without gloves.she h:is gloves to pl ay in, gloves to drive in and gloves for all occasions, almost all of thein of kid and of shades to snit her dresses. Everything that a little girl five years old worth a million f dollars all h-T own can have this little gij Las. She has a watch, many rings, some heautiful clasps and brooches and bracelets and even dia monds. Her dolls' wardrobe alone repre sent a largo expenditure, while her own clothing is as a rule to finest that can be procured. She has ljw with her over a hundred dresses. Her hats are particu larly cute and different from the common and are mostly French. Yet anyone sit ting on the Beach House sea decks and land piazzas might see this wonderful little maiden playing in the rand or run ning with thfcdogs to the woods and notice nothing more in her than any of the children around her. She is fond of play and is never so happy as when en gaged in some sport with children of her own nge. Master George C. Boldt, Jr., the five-year-old son of the well-known proprietor of the place, has a fine team of Rocky Mountain goats. The other day he got a cuto little wagon and was presented with a $40 suit of harness unjj celebrated the event by taking Miss May out for a drive and the two five-year-olders driving along tho beach behind the nimble, and well-trained goats were well worth a sketch. The human vei tebne found at Sarnsotv Bay are regarded by Professor lleilprin as conclusively proving the existence of prehistoric man in Florida at a very re mote period. m The Knot and tho MIlo. The "knot" and the mile are terms often used inter changeable, but errone ously so. 1 he fact is that a mile is less than cichtv-seven per cent, of a knot. Thrco and one-half miles are equal, within a very small fraction, to three kmts. The knot is (1.082.00 feet in length. Tho statute mile is G,280 feet. The result of tho difference is that speed in miles per hour is always considerably larger than wl.cn stated in knots, and if a pmon forgets this and states a speed at so many knots, when it was really so ninny miles, ho may be giving figures verging on tho incredible. When wo hear pnrtiessay that such a vessel is capa ble of making twenty knots per hour, we usually take tho statement with a very large grain of salt, for twenty knots is 23.04 miles per hour, a speed which very few Tcsselshavcmado, and it is doubted by some who have the best opportunity for making actual measurements, whether any vessel has ever made twenty -five miles in sixty minutes. It has been said that somo of the F.nglish torpedo boats havo made as high as twenty-four or twenty-fivo knots. Twenty-four knots are over twcnty-sevcitepnd a half milesr per hour, and twenty-five knots aro up waid of twenty-cightand three-quarter miles an hour, distanced that are incredi ble.

If you aro unable to take such exercise ojflr horseback or on foot, that should furnish n4 excuse for shutting yourself In-doora, but youjS Eoouia mite exercise in a carriage, or in somo other way bring yourself in contact with tho open air. Medicines which cause expectoration must be avoided. For five hundred years phy sicians have tried to euro Consumption by u-liig them, and have failed. Where there Is great derangement of the secretions, with engorgement of air-cells, there Is always profuse expectoration. Now 1'iso's Cure re movesthe engorgement and tho derangement of the secretions, and consequently (and. in t hi way only) diminishes the amount of mat ter expectorated. This medicine does not dry op a cough, but Amoves the cause of it. When it is Impossible from debility or other causes to exercise freely in the open air, apart ments occupied by the patient should be so ventilated as to. ensure the constant accession of fresli air in abundance. The surface of the body should bo sponged as often as every third day with tepid waler and a little soft-soap. (This is preterablu to any other.) After thoroughly drvlng, use friction with the hand moistened "with oil, Cod-Liver or Olive is the best.
