Mutilated Money.

The redemption division of the
Treasury Department is one of the
most interesting of its branches. 1t
is here that mutilated money comes
for Identification, and the form in
which it comes tells to the chief of
the division many romance and
many n tale of woe. There is much
that is humorous and much that is
pathetic in Mrs. Browns public ex-
perience. That experience ranges
over nearly eighteen years now, and
in that time millions of dollars have
passed through her hands, most of it
in such condition as to be beyond
Identification by ordinary means.
There is hardly any way you can
think of in which money is not NUT

One of the favorite hiding places
which women have for their savings
is the oven. When n cold day comes
the women probably forgets all about
the money, builds fire in the stove
and cooks the bills TO what is known
in the cook book as a rich brown"
An interesting case is that of wo-
man living near Hamilton, o., who
was burned to death. She had n
pocketbook with her containing $40
Her children sent the pocketbook
with its charred contents to the
Treasury Department and Mrs.
Brown picked out the $40 and identi-
fed II. \ great deal of money that
comes in Is partly burned. Whenever
a part of the money burned can be
identified and satisfactory affidavit
Is furnished as TO facts the govern
ment restores the amount TO the
owner. But II note is entirely de.
stroyed the government is Just SO
much ahead.
Much Of the money which comes in
for redemption has been damaged in
railroad wrecks. When a car is
burned in railroad wreck no attempt
is made by the express company TO
remove the money from the safe. The
safe.is sent direct 10 the Treasury
Department and opened there. The
money is usually in n pretty badly
charred condition. 1t is taken out
and the treasury experts go over it
and identify as much Of il as can be
recognized. Two years ago a pack
age containing 500, 200 was taken
from n wrecked car near st. Louis,
and all of the money was identified
and restored to its owners.
A fayorite hiding place for money
with men who have no faith in banks
is in their cellars. 4 Philadelphia
man sent $3.50 which he had buried
in tin box under his cellar floor.
When he took up the box he found
the money mildewed and rotten.
The package as it came into Mrs.
Browns hands looked like a bunch
of tobacco leaves. 1t was almost
impossible 10 distinguish the char
acter Of the notes with naked eve.
Mrs. Brown was picking apart the
pieces bit by bit and arranging them
on slips Of brown paper cut % the
size Of q dollar bill. She said she er.
pected 10 identify the whole of il.
