Speaking Of these deceptive bills reminds me
OF story that is told Of late United States
consul to Bahia, Brazil, which is worth repeat
ing. Az the departing consul stepped aboard
the steamer he handed to his ''tenderfoot" sue
cessor one Of those tempting looking $780,
bills. Take it, take IL" he said with sympa-
thetic feeling. when the other would have re-
jected so much proffered wealth; ''settle with
my creditors, il leave any behind, and never
mind about the change. Just treat the BOYS in
my name whenever they call and keep my
memory green" IL happened that lot Of
the boys dropped in that afternoon and the
joke cost the new consul the value Of a pocket
full OF those bills, they being worth at the time
exactly23 cents each. So far as am aware there
Is but one currency in the world more in
nnitessimal than that Of Brazil, and that Is the
small shells called cowries, which
circulate as money in Africa and India cowrie
being equal to about one-fiftieth of an Ameri-
can cent. FANNIE B. WARD.

So near the missile came, they dove,
And left awhile the world above,

An eagle screamed while lowering DER!

This uproar now 80 iercely stirred
Is it q friendly concert near,
Or else the sound Of war we hear:
II peace for them, for us tits war,
Our sports and dives to sadly mar
II war with them, for US some peace,
When raids and rife shots may cease

it was patronized by the foreign ministers, and
on the avenue between Sd and AZ streets was
the United States Hotel, kept at one
the south side of the avenue be-
tween 9th and ~ was Hepburn's Hotel,
and on street the Exchange, kept by Gilbert.
l am forgetting Tom Loyd's Hotel; he called
it a hotel and always spoke of Jesse Brown,
John Gadsby and meself'' as the principal
hotel keepers in Washington. 1t was opposite
the market on 7th street. Tom moved to Bal
timore and somehow became an appointee Of
John Tyler and the advocate OF his nomination,
which he rendered farcical. The Saint Cloud
Hotel, corner OF 9th and F, where now
the large and splendid building Of the WASH
ington Loan Company rears its granite walls, was
kept by Thomas Murray after Mr.. Lyons had
failed there. The first of the suburban hotels
which was built here-and that was built in 1856
or 1886 by Harry Winter-was the Park Hotel on
7th street beyond the boundary.
WHERE GOOD suPPxns WERE Had.
Among the houses of entertainment which
were literally pstronized in that early day, when
the law did not interfere with the amusements
OF our visitors and resident patrons, were the
faro banks. Next to the United States Hotel vas
the house kept by Edward Pendleson and John
Cummisky, and in tho next square was Foun-
tain Merritt's, from which Bill Marquis, 90 we'll
remembered here, graduated, and Goode and
Prindle's and the Virginia House next to the
National, and on the corner Of 9Th street, now
soon to be demolished, was Col Jim Longs,
whore for years the click Of the worries and the
buzz OF the roulette were heard. At these
haunts of fortune ''cau Of the house" when
ordered could always secure . quorum. The
dinners and suppers and the best Of wines,
liquors and cigars were pro bono ,publico
70 all who had the entire, and feeling
Of regret Il mingled with the very pleasani
memories OF those days when . square game,
an equal chance, was the rule which governed
these houseA In after years, a. al shings 60
