How It Induces People TO Make contri-
buttons OF Money and Bogus Checks TO
the National Treasury.
In conversation with Treasurer Gilfllan
yesterday the NATIONAL REPUBLICAN man
inquired how much conscience money was
coming in from repenant United Staters.
"There have been no repentant contribu-
tions for several days. answer the genial of
fetal. "The recent spasm is about over"
"Tell me what class Of treasury defeaters
are gifted with the most singing consciences,"
said the reporter.
ooh, there arc all classes. Usually sew
eral contributions Of like character follow
each other. For instance, fellow who has
been overpaid in the army will feel his con-
science smite him, and he will send us the
amount Of such overpaymont. The fact be-
ing published, other overpaid guardians Of
their country will arrive at the conclusion
that they mu 81 mako restitution, and they
will follow the first pious fellows suit.
well, what other species Of homo genus
add to the treasury from the dictates Of ac-
quired goodness2" qucried the scribe.
"All sorts who have eluded the customs
laws. Men will go TO Europe and bring their
sweethearts back silk dresses or sealskin
sacques, and get them through the custom
house; others will smuggle valuable articles
for sale"
"You say mon bring their sweethearts
pretty gifts. Don't husbands over smuggle2 ~
MEN mostly bring gifts 20 their sweet
| hearts. l heard an instance the other day Of
u gentleman who returned from Paris loaded
down with presents for his wife. She admired
them all and was very grateful, but with true
feminine tact she said TO him, 'Oh, Tom, you
must have been fearfully bad abroad to bring
me all these olive branches"
"You say that one act Of conscience causes
spasmodic successors. What was the nature
Of the last spasmr' inquired the reporter.
Frauds on the customs. The spasm was
mostly confined TO Philadelphia"
The reporter mildly remarked that when n
convulsion of rectitude passed over Philadel-
phia'there was indeed great hope for the sal
walton of the world, and asked Treasurer Gil
| fllan TO tell the public something more about
| conscience.
ut would take a book, )" said he "to tell all
the incidents connected with contributions To
the conscience fund. The worst specimen Of
| an uneasy conscience is where fellow sends
| u check for 800 or $780, and we find upon
sending it to tho bank that he has no deposit
there. This is the beastliest conscience in the
world. This is the way they play it on opr
venerable institution, and we never publish
any contributions now unless wo get the solid
cash. Conscience letters are usually very
| brief, and not often sent from religious mo-
tives, Occasionally some are sent through
priests, but very seldom"
Then the scribe withdrew, with the strict
intention of smuggling something before long
SO as to see how it feels to contribute to the
| conscience fund.

Virgins Denounced by Tice.

KANSAS CITY, March 10.-A private letter
has been received in this city from John II.
Tice, of Kirkwood, Mo-, who obtained some
celebrity several years ago as a weather
prophet. In reply to an inquiry, Prof. Tice
writes, under date of March 7, that he con-
slders Virgins crank and charlatan, and
asserts the belief that the Canadian prophet
stole his forecasts for March from his CTice's)
almanac for the present year. He cites the
fact that his almanac predicts a severe storm
between the 10th and 14th of March, but is
not apprehensive OF any great disaster, such
as seems to be anticipated by some people
whom he considers foolishly timorous.
