widow aud the Old TAX Receipt"
There is a mine Of interesting matter to
be CLEANED from the United States treas
ury by any one who knows where to
search. An old treasury official, now liv-
ing in New York city, said: There ia any
amount Of money due people who do not
call for it in the United States treasury.
You see, there have been 10 great loans
made 10 the United States in the past 80
years. The Oldest ever had anything to
do with was that maturing in 1861
think 1t was. II Is about all paid, but
there IL still nearly Sl1O, 200, in principal
and interest due to somebody It will
probably never be called for. And, speak
ing Of that loan Of 1896, there was a curl
GUS incident connected with my last refer
ence to those old books relating TO tuat
claim. 1t was while Judge Folger was
secretary. One morning an old man came
in to me who was from New England
state, He said that about 90 years ago he
found some old stocks or bonds among the
papers Of an uncle-mentioning his name
He had been a man of national reputation
