An interesting story Is told In con-
nection with the old state prison at
Charlestowu, which shows how small
aud Insignificant q thing may give
liberty 10 a prisoner. A convict had
been sentenced to imprisonment for
fifteen years, for committing a series
Of burglaries, and had served between
three and four years when one day he
brought a small chip Of wood from
the shop, where he was engaged in
labor, to his cell. This fact was not
worthy OF notice at the moment.
When, however, the prisoners, with
others, had marched to their cells, he
placed the chip In such q way as to
prevent the bolt Of the door Of his cell
from fastening. The officers on duty
made their usual Inspection, saw each
man In his cell, and 50 reported. Az
ter the inspection had been made, the
convict in question opened his cell
door, closed Il again, and passed
quickly out Of q side door into the
yard. In a moment he had gained
the shop where he worked. Here he
put on a pair OF Overalls belonging 10
one Of the instructors employed by
contractors, aud from there he get
upon the prison wall, aud entering
one Of the guard-houses he found an
overcOat which he dOnned. He was
now ready 10 bid adieu TO prison.
His movements were Ia no way slow,
for he knew that any moment his alb
sence might be noticed and the officers
be upon mis- track. Leaping the wall
the convict was soon In the street and
of for parts unknown
At o'clock, when the prisoners
were 10 return 10 the shops for the
afternoon, the absence OF tae escaped
man was noticed, and though diligent
search was made and the usual re
ward offered for his arrest, the fellow
was never captured, but made his
way 20 Halifax, where to-day be IL
engaged In a legitimate business.

WHAT BATTERED COINS ARE WORTH.

Il Is estimated by the Treasury
officials that II coin IL not I'm active
circulation, or Is frequently trans
ferred In treasury and custom transac-
tiOns, a $50 gold piece should cOutin-
ne current for fifty years, an eagle for
thirty-five years, a half eagle for
twenty years, and So and $3.50 pieces
each fiteen years.
Inasmueh as coin cannot continue
In circulation even for q short time
without some loss OF weight by nat
ural wear Congress has established
a margin Of loss within which coins
will be received at the Treasury at
their nominal value. Section IA Of
the act of 1873 provides "that gold
coins which have become reduced I'm
weight by natural abrasion not more
than one half OF one per centum be-
low standard weight after q period Of
circulation OF twenty years, and q
propOrtionale rate for q less period,
shall be received at their nominal val
ne at the Treasury and its Offices"
The standard weight Of the double
eagle Is SIG grains, and the amount OF
abrasion allowed by lay Is . $500
grains, thus leaving the least current
weight 5l3 42-lOO grains. The legal
standard OF the gold dollar Is 25.s
grains. The legal deviation from
standard weight OF the dollar Is one
quarter Of grain, hence it will con-
tinue current until reduced below 25
$500 grains. This margin allowed
by law In the case Of the gold dollar
exceeds the legal limit Of wear as ap-
piled TO other coins by nearly one
eighth Of a grain. All gold dollars
coined since 1871 are within legal toll
erance, II not fraudulently reduced In
weight. All double eagles, II not
fTaudulently reduced, will be found
within the limit of natural abrasion
allowed by law, The same Is true Of
all eagles coined since 1856, half
eagles coined since 1866, and quarter
eagles, or $3.50 pieces, II coined since
1871.
The law provides no way by which
uncurrent coins, either Of gold or sill
yer, may be redeemed at their real
value. The only means at the dlspO-
sal Of the holder Of these coins is 10
present his gold at the mint, where Il
will be received at its bullion value
and recOined into standard coins, the
Government charging him the actual
cost Of coinage, or II he has mutilated
silver coins he must sell them 10 the
Government for what they are worth
as bulllOn.-Phil0delphid Record.
