The Wizard of the Treasury.

FROM the IOuisVtlle fOst.
In all the departments there are employees
who hold their positions, not on the sti epgth
of their political influence, but upon the
strength of their peculiar abilities. Among
these is Patrick Byrnes, OF the division of
loans in the treasury department. For a
dozen years not an interest check has left the
department that has not passed through his
hands. The interest on the bond is paid
quarterly, aud, to insure absolute certainty
that none of the checks go astrsy, it is abso-
lutely necessary that they shodld all be
sealed by one individual. As the holders of
bonds are represented in number by many
thousands, it would take three ordinary
clerks tn do the work, but RyrueS does the
mailing single handed. The checks are
brought down from the loan division and
piled on his desk in stacks like cord wood.
Each one must get in its right envelope,
which has been previously addressed then
Byrnes begins.
With no mechanical assistance except wet
sponge, he starts in to do the sealing. Those
who have seen Blitz or Herman handle
pack of playing cards before a wonderstrick-
en- audience might have some idea of the
way that Byrnes RIFLES the checks into the
envelopes. Fifty "A minute. How he does
1t no one knows. Ii is sleight OF hand, but
so rapidly performed that the eye cannot fol-
low the movement Thump thump, thump,
all day long, and at the close OF the depart
ment day he has filled three store boxes W ith
sealed envelopes. Does he ever make a mis-
take? Well, no. The checks vary from
$50 to S5 900, and single mistake on his
part might cost him a years salary. 1t is
safe to say that he never makes one. OF the
thousands of people who quarterly receive
these interest checks, few know of the
wizard through whose hands they have
passed.
