A Dangerous CounterHt.
TWO DOLLAR SILVER CERTIFICATES
THAT ARE ALMOST PERFECT.

A sensation has been caused at the
treasury Department at Washington
by the discovery of counterfeit s.
silver certificate SO nearly perfect in
all It's parts as to be almost impossible
OF detection. Heretofore all counter.
felts of our paper currency have been
readily detected by the failure to imi.
tate the distinctive character of the
paper on which government notes arc
printed, which is so arranged that
each part Of it forming complete
note contains small silk thread run
ming through it lengthwise.
This paper is for the first time, al.
most perfectly initiated in the counter.
felt just discovered So far as is now
known it has been used only in count.
erfeiting the So silver certificates OF
the series OF 1886. This note was de
signed under the supervision of Treas
urer Jordon and contained on its face
a vignette of General Hancock. 1t is
estimated that there are now nearly
$4,000, 900 of these notes in circula-
ton and the problem before the Treas
ury Department is how to get them
back into the Treasury and to substi-
tute a new series without serious EN-
barassment before any considerable
quantity of the counterfeit notes get
into circulation.
This was the subject of secret
conference at the Treasury Depart
ment between Secretary Foster and
the leading officials Of the Bureau of
Engraving and Printing. 1t was
practically decided to suspend the
printing Of the So silver certificates
and to institute a new series of the
same denomination. These will con
tain vignette of Secretary Window
and will be issued as soon as the
necessary plates can be engraved.

Here's a Grip Microbe.

DR.. William ID. Gentry, of CHICAGO
claims to be a possessor of a microh,
ot the grip, the first ever captured or
even heard OF. The little wriggler is
imprisoned on the glass slide of DR..
Gcntry's big microscope and was care.
fully Inspected by many a scientific
eye.
Ever since the grip made its ap-
pearance year ago, said the doctor.
he has been on the still-hunt for the
microbes, if any existed. He found
that thlrty-four years ago, and again at
sixteen years ago, grip was epidemic
among human beings, and seventeen
years ago 1t attacked horses, causing
the still remembered "epiiootic !"
Owing to the recurrence of the disease
DIR. Gentry was inclined to believe
that the earth at such intervals passed
through stretch of space imprep-
mated with what astronomers call ''star
dust"
Four days ago it occurred to him
that he might trap some of the dust of
microbes or whatever it was. Care
fully polishing blank slide he took
1t outdoors and passed it through the
air. Placing the slide under his micro
scope, which magnihes I,17o times, he
counted seven heretofore unidentified
microbes in the field of the instru-
ment. The creatures were very live
ly, and seemed to flow or swim up
wards towards the glass. Before the
doctor could secure the microbes they
had disappeared. The next day, with
the Rev. DIR. Biggs, Of the Rogers
Park Methodist Church, Dr. Gentry
tried again and found more. Again
they escaped, but by using micro
glasses he secured the next lot and
had them mounted for the micro
scope. His next step was to procure
some mucus from a patient afflicted
with the grip A. neighbor, w. J.
Jefferson, furnished it, and to the de
light of DR.. Gentry the same sort Of
microbes were found in the mucus
that had been caught in the air, identi-
cal in every respect.
The grip microbes, as described by
DR., Gentry, are generally of round
form, varyir G occasionally in outline,
but always distinctly marked by a
series Of seven lines surrounding them.
Radiating from these lines are other
lines which, in the magnihed image,
resemble fine irregular hairs.
DIR. Gentry's entire time is occu-
ped in exhibiting the microbes to
brother physicians and in beginning a
technical account Of the discovery for
the benefit Of the profession.

Many people wonder what becomes
of the great quantity Of reports, tele-
grams, orders, magazines, ETC.. that
accumulate in big railroad Office.
A Star reporter was in the Lehigh
Valley Railroad office at South Beth
lehem, Friday morning, when num-
Der of workmen were engaged in pack
ing several large boxes with old re-
ports, etc. RI. p. Hamman, Gen. Supt.
Goodwin's assistant, was superintend-
ing the work. The reporter asked
where the stuff was being sent and
what it was Mr.. Hamman replied :
"This is the accumulation of the past
10 years in all the offices along the
road. 1t includes reports, orders,
and all the papers that are used in the
conducting of great railroad. There
are also a great number Of maga-
zines which are devoted to railroad
news, and of each of which we get a
copy. Every Office boxes up and
sends the stuff here and we load it in
freight cars and send it to paper mill
in Philadelphia. Of course, the re-
ports, ETC., for certain time back are
kept on hand for reference, and only
those that are useless are sent away
This work of cleaning up is done
about every ten years or So" The
papers are stored away in such way
that ready reference can be made tc
them, and when the quantity becomes
great and there is no further use fol
them they are sent to the paper mill

Folklore And Folk-Cure.

Some of the scientists who make {
specially of folk lore have lately beer
making inquiries about the malady
which the country people call spring
fever. 1t is genuine malady, though
more disagreeable than serious. Yet
it should be taken note Of. While the
scientists are inquiring about the NAL
ady, those who are suffering the lassi
tude, nervousness and melancholia
that are its symptoms, should run the
disease out of their systems by means
of that more subtle scientist and folk.
curest S. S. s. This is particularly
necessary, since spring fever leaves
the system in such a condition that il
succumbs readily to diseases that are
more dangerous and less easily con
trolled. SIS. S. is 4 preventive as
well as a remedy.

The new tax bill that has passed
the House ought not to become a law
without some amendments.
The present bill taxes almost every
thing a man owns. and besides COM
pels him under oath to state every
penny he receives from his trade, pro
fession and investments, also every
debt he may owe, big or little. This
information is then used in the public
prints, for upon it is based his assess
ment and valuation. An exc-tnge
says, 'This will give your friends and
your enemies and competitors in busi-
ness, full information in regard to
your financial condition. If you, how
ever, refuse to answer the questions
truthfully, the value of your property
will be first guessed at and then in
creased one-half, or you may have to
90 to Jail for conspiracy. You will
have to show how you got every dol
lar of your income. 1t is said that to
conscientiously comply with the bills
requirements, you will have to swear
to the value of the coffin in which
your husband or wife was buried, to
the actual number of your own and
your children's shirts, and of your
wife's dresses as we'll as the number of
bushels of potatoes in your cellar"
