AN ALBUM OF NOTES.
A Valuable Relic for the Con-
fedcratc Museum Here.

Mrs. j. Taylor Ellyson. chairman Of
the Relic Committee of the Ladies
Hollywood Memorial Association. is in
receipt Of beautifully-bound album
containing over eighty specimens Of
notes issued by the Confederate States
The splendid collection WAS presented
by Mr.. Il. =. Than, clerk of the Adju
tant-G Generals Office, Washington, d. C.,
through Mr. T.. j. Harvey, of the War
Record Department, OF the same city.
The album, which is said to be worth
over $500, contains money of nearly sll
denominations issued by the Treasury Of
the "Lost Cause"
Only seven specimens Of notes are
missing. One of these is 81, 600 bill.
with hkenesses of Andrew jackson and
John G.. Calhoun engraved upon it. An
other is a 500 note, which has printed
upon it locomotive and train of cars.
Two 500 bills are also lacking. One
represents train of cars passing sta
ton where there are number of specta-
tors, and the other portrays train just
emerging from tunnel, with q river
and steamboat in the background. A
s. note containing an allegOrical conflict
between the North and South is missing,
as are likewise two $50 notes. One Of
these represents three negroes working
in a field, and the other contains two
female figures seated on bale of cotton.
An effort will be made to obtain tho
lost notes, and If these can be procured
the collection will be complete. The
engraving on the money which was
issued in the first years of the Confede-
racy is exquisite. A large portion Of the
work appears to have been done by the
National Bsnk-Note Company, of New
York.
The album is truly valuable relic
and the gift is highly appreciated. The
ladies at their next meeting will tender
their thanks to Mr.. Than.

CLOSE THEIR DENS.
THE GAMBLERS SAID TO
HAVE SUSPENDED.
Secretary Candlish Declines 10
Discuss His Plans and MAJOR .
Poe Is Also Rcticent.

Secretary Candlish, OF the Young
Mems Christian Association, Is still
silent about his plans to break up gam
bling in Richmond, and few, ifany, peo-
ple know exactly what he intends to do.
The card-dealers got wind OF his
scheme long before it ever leaked out IN
the papers, and it is said by knowing
ones that all the "sporting places" have
been closed for several days The doors
OF most of the places are represented to
have been tightly locked since last Mon
day.
MAJOR POE QUITE RETICESr.
Major Poe, the Chief OF Police. was
asked by the DISPATCH representative
IL he and his blue-coat officers had been
invited to cooperate in the movement
for the discontinue of the gamblers.
He replied that he had not, and stated
that his letter asking Mr.. Candlish II he
intended to try DR.. Parkhmsts method,
was written when he received informa-
ton about the Secretary's plans. Major
Poe said that he had received no formal
reply to this communication. Beyond
giving this information the Chief had
but little to say. In fact, he seemed to
know very little more about the matter
WHAT THE POLICE THINK.
Some of the policemen, when APP
preached by the reporter Yesterday, ex-
pressed the belief that Mr.. Candllshs
plans-or what they knew of them-were
They seemed to think
That the only way he could get case
against the gamblers would be to send a
man to the "dens" and have him VIC
timized.
There are said to he about half
dozen gambling-houses in Richmond,
and rumor has it that new one would
have been opened last week but for the
fact that those interested learned Of the
proposed action Of Mr.. Candish.

1t Is amusing to see how thoroughly a
Frenchwoman is a natural matchmaker,
and how she supposes that the search for a
"bon parti" must be ever uppermost in the
mind of a properly regulated young woman.
At dinner in Paris given by hostess
noted for tact and elaborate entertainments
the pretty woman, conveying tall youth,
futtered up to an American girl, say
ing, ALLOW me to present Monsieur N,
Miss X; he is to have the pleasure of tax
ing you out to dinner"-adding In quick
little "aside" behind her fan-"He is worth
100000 francs, my dear" At the table
Miss X. discovered her escort to be uninter-
esting, while her other neighbor, Monsieur
T., proved to be most amusing, though a
middle aged, plain little man. To him she
devoted herself throughout the dinner, con-
tinuing the conversation afterward in the
drawing room, where the neglected Croesus
promptly deserted her.
A short time after, when making her din
ner call, the American girl remarked to her
hostess that she had found Monsieur T.
such clever man.
"Oh, yes, quite clever little man. But
what did you think of Monsieur NJ" in
quired madame.
HE was rather young, and there didn't
seem to be anything particularly interest
ing about him." replied Miss ", hoping to
excuse her evident neglect of her escort at
the dinner.
"Ah," exclaimed her hostess, 81 felt sure
when | saw how little he interested you
that you did not hear me tell you that he
was worth 100000 francs. New York
