There are people who apparently de-
light in punching holes in new or curl
Gus coins, or in def,cing them by
inscribing upon their faces initials or
something of that nature. This is all
nonsense, and we are pleased to learn
that measures are to be adopted for
furnishing those who indulge in this
miserable Yankee habit. The COM
rnittee on coinage, weights and meas
ures have agreed to report favorably
Marsh's bill, which provides that every
person who fraudulently, by any art,
way or means, defaces, mutilates, i'm
pairs, diminishes, scales or lightens
the gold or silver coins which have
been, or may hereafter be, coined at
the lnints OF the United States, or any
foreign gold and silver coins which
are by law made current or are in
actual use and circulation as money
with the United States, shall be i'm
prisoned not more than two years and
fined not more than $1,000; and every
person who shall, with intent there
after to circulate the same, deface any
of the coins aforesaid by placing there
on, by any means whatsoever, any
name, word, sign, device, character
or picture, or who shall utter or tender
the same rs money when SO defaced,
shall be imprisoned not more than
one year and fined not more than
$1,000; and coins mutilated or defaced
as aforesaid shall not be legal tender
for the payment of any debts.

SUIT FOR LITTLE EROCK..$gO, 900 O,OOO
AT STAKE.

For Il long time past a. tradition has
been cherished in the families Of three
brothers named WcntfOrth, living in
New Jersey, that their maternal grand
father, some time about the year 1915,
pre-ernptcd the land on which the city
OF Little Rock, Ark, stands. About
twenty years ago "a suit was begun for
this land by an heir belonging to an
other branch of the family, but the
three brothers were not sanguine as to
its success, and refused to allow them
selves to be taxed heavily to carry 1t
on. When, however, last year Elias
Wentforth of IIlizabethport, one Of the
brothers, was offered $500 for his claim,
he refused, saying that If 1t was worth
anything it was worth more than that.
Monday and yesterday were spent by
the heir who has been carrying on the
suit, in informing the WcntfOrths that
the site of Little Rock was theirs, the
United States Courts having at last
rendered a decision in their favor. The
property thus acquired is variously
valued at from 100000 600 to $50, ,000,-
600. There are ten heirs. Elias Went
forth Is Il spiIe driver, and is now
work ing on North river, OH "a contract
with +. G. Brown with VIM. III. Van
derbilt. Another brother is keeper OF
the draw of the Raritan bridge at Perth
Amboy. Neither brother Is entirely
dependent on his occupation, and Elias

An OLD BANK DEPOSIT.
Philadelphia North American.

. NoTIu
Twenty-seven years ago lady now
living in Nashville, Tenn, deposited
300 in II savings bank in this city and
had the amount rgularly entered In Il
bank pass book. She subsequently lost
the pass-book, and, believing that she
could not draw the money In conse-
quence of the absence Of this evidence
Of her deposit, never again went TO the
bank. In looking over some old papers
in this city not long since the book
was found, aud efforts were made to
find out whether any Of her kinspcople
were yet living, but this proved un-
successful. Letters were accordingly
written to her, and she was Informed
that II she would send Il power Of at
tOrney to the bank she would receive
in return the 800 principal and the
accumulated interest 1927. She did
as directed, and was the happy rcclp-
lent of an order for 1927 and few
cents. The lady is now verging on
seventy years OF age.

An enormous eagle, measuring seven
feet from tip to tip of the wings, was
captured near Atlanta, Ga, on We'd
nestlay last. An old negro was carry
ing baby in his arms, and his wife
was walking close behind him, when
the bird suddenly descended and made
a swoop for the child. The father
warded off the assault bya well-direct-
ed blow, but the eagle returned to the
attack with renewed vigor. The negro
kicked and fought with all his might
while clinging desperately to the child,
and his face was scratched by the ella ws
of the bird. His wife screamed for
help, and farmer who was chopping
wood close by ran forward, and with a
stroke OF his axe laid tue bird senseless
on the ground. The eagle was stunned
but not killed by the blow, and the
farmer now has him under bonds.

Whether they be right or wrong In
their opinions one thing at present
seems to bc certain that the people are
dissatisfied with the work and the re-
suits of the fifth Legislature. SO great
ts the dissatisfaction that nothing short
OF change, almost sweeping will sat-
isfy. 1t Is true there are single indi.
vidunls who may be returned by their
constituents, but the personnel OF tho
legislative body will, II we mistake
not, be greatly changed by the No
vember election. 1t may be true ~
Senator White says the fifth General
Assembly has accomplished much In
the way of reform, yet then the most
ordinary intellect will wonder why
more was not accomplished when they
see how much time was taken up with
mighty endeavors to accom- lish petty
things. That Is, II all Legislators ON
the Democratic side were patriotic,
self-sacrttictng men, anxious to labor
for the public good. t.... .a.ses.. .-
Already the campaign looks as II It

Our leaders who propose to conduct
the fall campaign to q termination

Verify, an unhappy condition Of
public affairs Is presented for the con-
sideration Of the people. Dissatisfied
with their Legislators they do not wish
their dissatisfaction to include Gov.

istration. Disappointed in the men
they have chosen to help them from
their difficulties, they are not prepared
to give any kind of support to the rad

original evils.
