Glass Dimes That Ring Like silver

Glass Dimes That Ring Like Silver.
New York letter
"Thats no good" said the clerk, in the
presence Of a reporter, as he showed ten-cent
piece back across the counter Of Broadway
restaurant.
Eyes, 1t Is" said the man, who picked it up
and again laid it down, ringing it as he did 80.
The man behind the counter picked the token
up, laid one edge OF it on the counter holding
his thumb and fOrefnger on the other and.
with quick pressure, broke it in two in a
nearly straight line. which left about two even
halves. The man looked on In stupid astOnlsh-
ment and picked up one Of the pieces. The
broken edge did not look like glass, but its
texture showed readily that 1t was fflable and
not malleable.
Now, I'll show you" said the man. as he
picked up little hammer and gave the half
lying on the counter couple of quick whacks
1t was pulverlzed as if it had been hammered in
mortar. and showed only bits of brittle, broken
substances, glass-llke in all respects except
color. The particles were dead lead color
and the still unbroken half showed date of
1855. indicating that the counterfeiters had on
account of its dead color, decided to take an
old instead OF a recent date.
These coins have been made to weigh and
ring so like silver that it is impossible to tell to
what extent they have been circulated, and
doubtless many have passed through many
H6HuS WITHOUT having Created any SUSPICION.
Markem Bros, who handle enormous Guantl-
ties of silver of all sorts, said they had seen two
samples The coins are made In all grades and
the samples they saw were both standard dol
lars. One Of the brokers was trailing fstful
of dollars from one hand to the other when
his eye caught the milled edge Of the coin,
which looked thicker than Its predecessors and
successors. Picking it out, he found that the
milling was not quite so distinct as 1t should
be, and the coin had a dead look. but answered
correctly to the touch. He threw it out, and
refused to take it, returning 1t to his customer
few days afterwards man came In with sim
liar coin, only that it was already broken in two
pieces which fell apart as the stack Of coin rip
pied over his finger ends. The edges looked
like those OF lump Of mica, or sheeted ISM
glass, as they are found by geological field
hunters. That there was glass In it he could
only guess, and has never met any one who could
suggest method by which base metal could be
combined with glass 80 as to give true weight
and the right ring. The glass Is evidently in
tended to make the ring correct, and yet It must
be thoroughly mixed with the metal or it could
not be broken with the pressure of q thumb
The secrets Of the counterfeiters are not known
to the smelters, nor are they to the glass-work-
ers, and neither can understand how there can
be an amalgamatiOn or fusing. The bad metal
according to that, must be some comparatively
new discovery. Glass weighs only One-tenth
that Of silver, and no base metals approach the
weight of silver, SO that all are puzzled.

Something Wrong SomeVy here.


From the Detroit Free Press
'Do your women customers bother you much?"
asked citizen who was talking with Wood
ward avenue grocer the other morning
"Well. they seldom want to pay tie prices. It
seems natural for them to want to beat down
the figures There comes one now who prob
ably wants Strawberries. Here are some fresh
ones at fifteen cents per quart, and yet if 1
should ask her only eleven she'd want 'em for
ten"
'Say, try 1t on. just for joke. II she asks
the price put 1t at eleven"
The grocer agreed, and presently the woman
came up, counted the sixteen boxes Of berries
under her nose, and of course inquired:
Have you any strawberries this morning?
"Yesm."
''Fresh ones?"
''Yesm."
'In quart boxes?"
'Yesm."
'H0w much!"
"Only eleven cents per box, madam"
"I'll take the whole lot" she quietly OBJ
served. as she handed out S. bill, and take
'em she did.
The citizen disappeared at that moment, and
the grocer believes that it was a put-up job be-
tween the two.
