A Two Faeed Bank Vote.

In the United States there is one bill which
is $40 on one side and $40 on the other It
has been in circulation twenty-four years,
and has at last been captured and put in a
glass case. It was exhibited the other day at
the wholesale store of the Rochester Lamp
company.
By mistake at the government bureau Of
printing, four bills were printed as $40 on
the face and so on the reverse side. The
mistake was not discovered till after they
had been put in circulation. An attempt
was made 70 get them. Three of the bills
were recovered, but the fourth bill was lost.
The bill which is the subject Of this story
was the lost bill It accidentally came into
the possession, a short time ago, Of Mr..
Gregg, a manufacturer at Wallingford,
Conn. He discovered it as he was paying of
his employees, and was uncertain whether il
was $40 bill, $50 bill, or no bill at all
Mr.. G. S. Upton, OF the lamp company, paid
Mr.. Gregg $500 for it.
1t Is a national bank bill Of the Second
National bank of Springfield, Mass. govern
ment number, 2, 970, ,793; bank number,
4,515; number Of bank, ISL. It was printed
Jan. 5, 1869, and is signed with the curious
and well known signature Of +. E. Spinner.
1t has also the signature Of H. Alexander,
Jr., the president Of the bank. The bill is
now frayed little on the edges, but 1t is
bright in color.
Mr.. Upton presented it to the Importers
and Traders bank and to the Chemical bank
for inspection, and the bank experts pro-
nounced it a good bill, and at first did not
observe anything peculiar about 1t. It is a
good bill, and its value is $40. It is said that
Mr. Stewart, the well known restaurant
keeper, and Allen & Ginter, tho tobacco
nists, have offered $500 for the bill. Mr.
Upton said he would not sell it for 81, ,OO0.--

robert earrett.s paltImore Palace.


The Garrett residence is a wonder OF archi-
tectural and decorative art; and its formal
opening, by grand ball early In january,
1887, was the event Of that Baltimore season.
The ground plan is 90 by 100 feet; there are
three stories and a basement, with solid
front Of brown stone. The general style Is
Of French Renaissance, but the designer al
lowed himself much latitude. The main
hall is that Of an old English manor, and
all the woodwork is Of English black
oak, deliberately carved, with panel
decorations, choice paintings and steel
suits Of mail There is also library fin
ished in mahogany, dining room in the
Dutch style Of the Sixteenth century, par
lor upholstered in Gobelin tapestry, with
deep friezes Of allegorical paintings, a won
derful balcony and a conservatory, 40 by co
feet in size, which is a perfect paradise in
ferns and exotic flowers, with bubbling foun-
tains and waterfalls, over all Of which is a
light soft as that Of full moon. Altogether,
it is a neighborhood Of which the possible
colored orphan neighbors would have no
cause to feel ashamed.
The real wonder Of the place, however, Is
the bathroom, modelled after that Of the
luxurious Louis XIV Of France. The ceiling
is in imitation Of lattice work, with vines
and flowers; the immense laver (vulgato

A Warning.

The modes of deaths approach are various,
and statistics show conclusively that more
persons die from diseases Of the throat and
lungs than any other It is probable that
every one, without exception, receives vast
numbers of Tubercle Germs into the system
and where these germs fall upon suitable
soil they start into life and develop, at first
slowly, and is shown by slight tickling
sensation in the throat and if allowed to con-
tinue their ravages they extend to the lungs
producing consumption, and to the head,
causing catarrh. Now all this is dangerous,
and if allowed to proceed will in time cause
death. At the onset you must act with
promptness, allowing a cold to go without
attention is dangerous and may lose you your
life. As soon as you feel that something is
wrong wiz. your throat, lungs or nostrils,
obtain bottle of Bochee's German Syrup.
It will give you immediate relief

Rubinstein's Photographs Treasures.

Rubinstein, the pianist, has many photo
graphs, but none that he cherishes more
dearly than one Of which he is accustomed to
relate the following tale. He was, at the
very outset Of his professional career, about
to give his first concert at a town in Russian
Poland. Rubinstein sat at the box Office all
day, but not 4 single person came TO buy
tickets, and the young musician had a sink'
ing feeling d his heart. At last. however, a
Polish Jew entered, and threw down a rou-
bic, asking for six seats. This rouble proved
the first of many thousands Of coins that the
artist was to pocket during his career Years
afterward Rubinstein again passed through
this Polish town, met his friendly Jew Of old,
and had him photographed. This counter
felt the pianist would not part with now for
many roubles.-New York Tribune.

THE OLD STORY.

You may call it Irritation, or what not,
But don't see that I was 20 blame.
How could know that you loved me,
When you never once mentioned the samef
I've walked in the starlight with many,
And have risked my life on the lay,
Yet among them I've never found any
But had something decided 10 say.
You thought that your silence had told met
The silence that's golden, we've heardi
But the girl Of today prefers silver,
Coined into words sweet and absurd;
There are lovers whom there's no mistaking,
Whose language leaves no one in doubt;
There are others who leave ones heart aching
For word there's 10 living without.
But since the sweet year has grown older,
And you've failed as a special pleader,
Shall be left out in the cold sir,
Because was not q mind reader?
You blame me, think, without reason;
If You really had something to say,
What matters the time or the seasOnf
Why can't we be happy-todayg

feet in width and it is charged by Mr.
WOrthington that the Surveyor is in
structcd to reduce the streets to 60 feet
and the avenues to 30 feet, and to omit
entirely Third and Seventh streets
which appear on the plat. lie says also
thnt he understands the Surveyor Is en-
gagged in preparing n plat in conformity
with these instructions, and proposes to
place IL or d copy of II upon the records,
over the signatures in question, that IL
may appear to have been recorded before
the passage of the act~rcgulating said
divisions in the District of Columbia.
