Speaking of the redemption of paper
money, "A very novel and interesting appli
cation was made the other day to the divi
sion of the treasury which has this business
in hand. The story as it came out was as
follows:
An ingenious youth employed to sweep
out a New York bank devoted attention fol
a considerable period to gathering up the
crumbs from the tills in the shape of cor.
ners and other bits of notes such as get
torn off and fall about in any place where
dollars are counted. In the course of time
he got together Il quantity of scraps of the
sort sufficient to fill a pint measure, and
he sent them on to the redemption bureau
at Washington in box, with the explana-
ton that they had been eaten by mice.
He stated the amount at 5000, and asked
for new bills in exchange. His little game
was betrayed on the face of it by the fac t
that the pieces forwarded represented, if
anything, not less than 81 900. The usual
affidavit was demanded from him, swear
ing to his loss; but he had not thought Of
that requirement and lacked the nerve to
give it, luckily for himself. Washington

a terrible fight with two bears, which

resists on the grounds that line which

that she has never acquiesced in the line,

WASHINGTON, Nov. 20.-The fact that
many tons of the high explosive known
as "Americanite, are stored in factory
across the eastern branch of the Potomac
is causing much anxiety and uneasiness
to people living in that locality, and
even to some people in Washington,
who fear an explosion that would re-
suit in death and widespread destruc-
ton, Professor Wiley, of the agricul-
tural department, thinks Americanite, u
like all high explosives, dangerous, nc
matter how carefully handled but has
allayed the fears of people here by say
ing that if t. twenty or thirty tons of
this explosive now in the factory should
explode, it would do no damage in this

Smohaninoff Russian, insists that his
explosive, although more powerful than
dynamite, is insensitive to shock, and is
perfectly safe to handle 1t is and has
been, he says, used extensively in the
Pennsylvania oil fields and for blasting
purposes, and can only be exploded by
the agency of Illuminating cap.
