The Story OF a Bill.

I. n. Beall, of Talbottom, Ga, re-
marked to the writer q few days ago
that there was q one-hundred-dollnr
bill on deposit in the Peoples Bank
which could be identified by q certain
mark. A man came into the bank TO
have a check cashed and Mr.. Beall paid
him this bill. In a short while an
other man brought in the same bill and
had it placed to his credit on deposit.
In few minutes Mr.. Beall had paid
out this bill again and presently it was
again deposited This paying out and
receiving back was continued until Mr.
Beall had paid out $500 with the samo
one-hundred-dollar bill in less than ono
hour. How many times it may have
changed hands outside the bank can
not be told. d.-Atlanta Constitution.

Lmsrlca,s First Recorded Eclipse.

The first observations of an eclipse
of the sun taken by American astron-
omers we're made on Long Island, Pen
obscot Bay, on October 27, 1880. On
that occasion a party from Harvard
College, headed by Professor s. w.
Hollis, LID, having obtained the
consent of the British General who was
in command of Castine, landed al
Bounty Cave and made the house ol
one Shubael Williams their head.
quarters. The totality of the eclipse
was visible only at Penobscot Bay and
vicinity, fact which would make such
an event one of great import even to-
day. 1t is but justice to add that the
observations made by the Harvard
scientists we're very successful, not
withstanding the fact that their instru'
ments were very crude and inaccurate.

time there.
Having seen this building, you may come
out by the main entrance, and turning to the
right proceed about a rod, and then turn to
the left and keep by the edge OF the lagoon
until YOU reach the bridge immediately in
front Of the Electricity Building, when you
NAV cross over TO Wooded Island and take a
look at the Boone and Crockett Clubs cabin.
1t is a modest enough log hut. with an old
canvas-covered wagon in front Of it, and the
doorway is ornamented with old horns In
side there are bear and deer skins. some old
harness and working utensils. The design is
simple enough, being the illustration OF the
frontier hunters cabin. and is well carried
out Having inspected this bit OF the far
west. you will 90 well TO cross back by the
way YOU came. as the other attraction OF the
island. the japanese village, Is not yet
sufficiently complete to warrant a visitor in
spending much time over it, when there are
so many other more completed displays.
The Mining Building which you find your
self in front Of Is hardly worth the expendi-
ture Of much time at present. few OF the
exhibits are partly in place, but others are in
a state OF chaos.
The Electricity Building. which is along
side Of the Mining Building, may also be
passed by. The outside is the best part Of II.
Inside there Is now little TO interest one, un-
less he desires to make astudy Of the process
OF installation.
Next to the Electricity Building is that OF
Manufactures and Liberal Arts. and into that
YOU may safely turn with the intention OF re-
naming for an hour or q week. Ten days
ago il was hardly an eXagceration to say that
there we're not twenty complete exhibits in
place in this building but now onc-half OF
them are in place and the others begin to
show signs OF what they will soon be. Hour
after hour you may walk through rows of
exhibits, ranging from pyramids OF tin pans
to parlors Of the rarest tronzes and china.
Going up stairs among the liberal arts there
is the same attraction. Where you will
linger depends upon your taste, but II you
have taste for anything artistic you will be
able TO crafty it hcre.
Coming out at the north end of tho Manu-
factures Building you are Immediately In
front Of the Government Building. and II you
enter il by the enA-ance Immediately in front
of you. you will find yourself in the middle Of
the display of the Smithsonian Institution and
National Museum. This is being perfected
day by day, but TO all appearances is almost
perfect now. The truth is that the Govern

its exhibits in the grounds Passing through
the Smithsonian exhibit you come into the

centre, an exhibit that excites great deal Of
curiosity from visitors. but which really Illus

rode another, dark and swarthy, his
arms bound to his sides, his horse led
by Craig. All Sage Bar assembled
about the party while Craig told the
story Of how he had ridden away that
night, had struck the trail of the
