SCIENCE MONRY.-The Treasury department is
informed that Mr.. T. NJ. Hurst, the agent OF the
Cumberland Presbyterian Publishing Co., has de-
posted $500 In the First national bank, of Nash
vile, Tenn, to the credit of the Treasurer OF the
United States, on account OF the conscience fund
1t will be remembered that short time ago Hurst,
who is agent for the Cumberland Presbyterian
Publishing Co. at Nashville, received from an un-
tied in the United States Treasury the credit Of
the conscience fund. Hurst considered the con-
trtbutiOn to be intended for the benefit OF the pub
fishing enterprise with which he is connected and
declined to turn the amount over to the govern
ment unless specially instructed so to do by the
Nashville papers. The district attorney at Nash
Vile was Instructed to take steps to have the
money turned into the United States Treasury
with the above result.
