preacher, some distance away, was dis

hearers to pray for temporal as we'll as

his own experience. He said that he
was recently on the shore about to pro-

somewhat blushed to think of entering
that harbor town and watering-place so

q light striped shawl. There was also nurs-

Extraordinary COuntefetine.

A Washington telegram Of Oct. .27th,
says: A number Of the 81 600 coupon bonds
found in possession of. B. Doyle when ar.
rested in Chicago, have been examined by Of
icers Of the secret service, and by experts in
the loan division of the treasury department,
who pronounce them remarkably good coun-
terfeits. No one but an expert, they say,
would be likely to detect their spurious char
acter. Smith, who engraved the plate, 1t ap-
pears, said that there were originally thirty
coupons on the bonds. When taken from
Doyle there was but one coupon attached.
The others had been cut off in Jagged way,
to look as If they had been clipped of one at
a time. The signature of "E. NJ. Plat, for the
register is pronounced excellent counterfeit,
and the vignette OF Secretary Chase is perfect.
1t is not considered that the one coupon left
on each bond Gould be detected as counterfeit
anywhere. Doyle will have an examination
tomorrow In Chicago. Brockway will also
have an examination In Brooklyn. The twen-
ty-seven 500 notes found in Doyle's valise
were also forwarded to the secret service.
Upon examining them they were found to be
genuine, and sent back to Chicago with in
structions to further look into Doyle's doings.
