The Small Notes Will Be Ready for Dis
tributiOn in Two Weeks.
WASHINGTON, Sept. Arrangements are
being made at the Treasury Department for the
early distribution of the new silver certificates,
which are now being printed as rapidly as posi-
BILE. The first batch of one-dollar certificates
was received at the Treasury Department to-
day. 1t consists of 5000 sheets and amounted
to 500, 900. They need only the seal of the
Treasury Department to be finished notes. The
bureau will print these notes at the rate Of $780,
900 day during the present week. Additional
facilities will be supplied next week by which
the issue will be increased to $50 900 day. Or
ders for these notes. in large amounts. running
up to several hundred thousand dollars, have
been received from all parts of the country. 1t
is the purpose of the department., however to
hold the notes until the supply will allow
a pro rata distribution of a respectable
amount to each section of the country, and they
will be shipped from Washington so to secure
their Simultaneous delivery at the different sub
treasures. 1t is expected that the ones will be
put into general circulation in about two weeks.
The 81 certificates will not be ready for issue for
about three weeks yet. Thew are in great de-
mand and their completion will be fastened
much as possible The printing of the So certif
icates will not be pushed particularly. as there
does not seem to be the same demand for them.
This is due to the plentiful supply of the United
States and national bank notes of the same de-
nomination. The design for the So silver certif
Gates was approved by acting Secretary Fair
child to-day. Portraits of General Grant and
Mr. Tilden suggested as proper vigDettes
for this note, and designs with these two vign-
nettes were submitted. The selection was under
consideration by different officials for several
days. and finally decided by Secretary Fair
child in favor OF the Grant vignette.

Druggist Brown Dies from the Effects of
Poison Swallowed by Mistake.
Special to the indianapolis Journal.
ANDERSON, Sept 20-Mr. Garrett W. Brown
died at o'clock this morning from the effects of
a teaspoonful of fluid extract of belladonna taken
in mistake for fluid extract Of dandelion, the
particulars of which were published in the Jour
nal to-day. He lived about twenty -one hours
after swallowing the poison, ard for nearly all
that time remained unconscious. Shortly before
his demise he rallied somewhat and conversed
with friends about him, who were led to believe
that the poisonous drug had run its course, and
that the patient would recover. The immediate
cause of his death was paralysis of the heart.
No definite arrangements have yet been made
for the funeral further than that it will occur
on Wednesday afternoon. The deceased has
been engaged in the drug business in this
city since 1865, and at the time of
his death was the senior partner in
the firm of Brown & Buck, one of the most sue
cessful and prosperous retail drug houses in the
State. AS druggist he was thorough and com

wealth. As q citizen. man stood higher in the
estimation of the people Of Anderson, and his
sudden and tragic death is much lamented.
