this has been obtained you are escorted
down two flights of stairs into the sub

corridor leading to the great vault
where are stored one hundred and one
million, eight hundred and sixty-thou-

To enter the vault one must first pass
the great door with its multiplicity of

locked. Beyond this is the great sill

been properly counted and the exact
amount determined upon, the treas
urer is ready if his bond has been
fled and passed as satisfactory, to en-

After all, the amount of gold held in
the treasury by Uncle Sam is but
small part Of the gold which he owns.
The different sub-treasuries have
more gold in them than the treasury
department, but as gold does not form
such a circulating medium as paper
and the smaller silver coins, Uncle
Sam has enough in his Washington
strong box for all needs Of business, and
in dividing up the gold among the diff
ferent sub-treasuries he is only follow
ing the practice Of the majority Of
business men who CRY down the prac-
tice Of putting an their er..s in one

around the inner vault, which is COM
posed of steel lattice work, strongly
riveted together, ana which securely
holds the millions within.
But even through this steel lattice
work you cannot see the white metal
which is stored away. All that can be
seen is a long row of wooden boxes
which are piled up. tier upon tier, from
the floor of the vault to the ceiling.
Although it is certain that with all
the watchfulness with which the gold
and silver are guarded, none of the
contents of the huge vaults can be
stolen, nevertheless with each change
of the treasurer all of Uncle Sans
money is carefully counted.
OF course every one has seen esti-
mates of the length of time which
would be occupied in counting mil
lion. The query is probably contained
in nearly all of the arithmetics and
books of puzzles now in existence, but
Uncle Sans millions are counted more
rapidly than one would naturally ex-
pect, although it usually takes ten ex-
pert counters three months to find out
Sam has on hand.
OF course each silver dollar is not
counted, neither is each gold piece. A
bag of silver contains one thousand
silver dollars and should weigh sixty
pounds, so in counting the money a
bag of silver is placed on the scales and
if up to weight the bag is counted as
one thousand dollars, but if the silver
dollars have lost in weight by the
wear of circulation then the bag is
opened and every dollar counted, so
that there will be no possibility of a
mistake.
During the recent count of the
money in the silver vault, in addition
to the ten clerks detailed as counters,
twenty laborers were detailed to ham
die the bags of silver, and carry them
to the weighers and return them to

and the wagon starts down Z street
for the railway station at lively pace.
These wagons have the right of way
they never stop on the way or permit
themselves to become involved in jam
of vehicles. The people of Washington
know the custom, and always give
these treasure-laden vans the right of
way and all the way they want.
If you enter the treasury department
by any of the entrances, either on the
ground or main floors, you will notice
that Waterman is stationed at every
door. If you enter between nine a. m.
and two p. IN. nothing will be said to
you, but if you attempt to enter after
two p m. you win be denied admit
tance, for the department is closed at
that hour to visitors. The rules about
admittance after two p. N. are very
strict.
If you enter the treasury depa ~tment
and visit the office Of the captain of
watch you viii notice on the side of
the Office three large cases. Two of
these cases contain breech loading
rifles, and the center case contains
large quantity of heavy revolvers,
These are used in arming the force of
sixty-eight watchmen who day and
night are on guard to keep watch over
the building and the great vaults in
which the money is stored. The watch
men are all armed with revolvers. and
there are rifles enough to equip the
whole force of watchmen in case of
riot or assault.
OF course something must be done TO
insure the faithful discharge of the
watchman's duties. and looking to this
end some are detailed as patrolmen
who patrol the entire builG ng at
stated intervals to see that the watch
men are at their posts. In addition to
this each Waterman is required to re
port his presence every half hour by
means of an electric button which reg
listers his report in the main corridor

Fingers Of light draw the mists away,
Scarlet and gold replace the gray;

With gracious smile comes up the sun
And the day is born
Full shines the sun on the pleasant plain
Murmurs the breeze DER the ripened grain;
Crickets are chipping in merry mood;
Over the earth does the warm sky brood
Aud the day is at noon
Shadows are creeping over the grass;
The trees are mirrored in lake OF glass:
Faint rosy clouds float away TO the east,
The sun, the king, withlraws from the feast
And the day is done.
