Public Examiner Meyers in a recen

Public Examiner Meyers in a recent
issue OF the WATERFOWL Public Opinion,
makes the statement that the silver dol
lar is "legal tender in any amount, what
ever, by the carload, il presented in such
quantities; that the prevailing belief is
that silver is legal tende- OILY to the
extent of five dollars, but the impression
is wrong 1t is subsidiary coin--frac
tional silver dollars-that is legal tender
only to the extent Of five dollars. Silver
certificates, however, are not legal ten
der. The legal tender money is gold,
silver dollars and greenbacks."
The Sioux Falls Press in commenting
upon the above, says: "Sllver is a legal
tender in all sums except where other
wise expressly stipulated in the contract
for payment of money. y * Neither
gold certificates nor silver certificates
are legal tender, but treasury notes is.
sued in payment of purchases OF silver
bullion under the Sherman act OF 1890
ARE legal tender precisely the same as
silver, that is, except where payment in
gold is stipulated in the contract"
The chief point ut issue in the forego.
ing opinions, and where both are in error,
is in the legal tender Of subsidiary coins
Unless otherwise specially provided in
contract, silver dollars are a legal tender
in any and all amounts, but subsidiary
silver coins are legal tender to the
amount of ten dollars only-not five dol
lars as claimed by MIR. Myers, nor sin al
sums" as given by the Press. The coin
age act of June o, 1879, section 5, reads
"That the present silver coins of the
United States of smaller denominations
than one dollar shall hereafter be lega
tender in all sums not exceeding ter
dollars in full payment of all dues pub
lie and private" Section 4 of the SANE
act repeats all laws in conflict with the
foregoing aud this law Of 1879 has moi
since been amended or repealed in this
particular. Thus subsidiary silver coir
is a legal tender to the amount of ter
dollars only.

ELECTRIC FAN GAMBLING.
A New Game That Can't De heat
which Has Taken Possession of
WnshingtOn.
From the WashIngton Prst.

From the Washington Pest.
There is a new form of gambling much
affected in clubs and bar rooms nowadays
that even the board of trade will find it
hard to put a stop to. Every one is famil-
lar with the electric fans, which in the
past few years have proven such a boon
in torrid weather. They are shaped like
a propeller and have four. five or six
blades and are ncased in wire cages with
large apertures. By touching lever at
the back the machine can be started or
stopped at will, and while in motion the
velocity is something tremendous.
Some wide-awake genius not long ago
conceived the idea that the electric fan
could be utilized as an excellent means Of
wooing the goddess fortune, and put the
suggestion into operation in this wise: A
six-bladed fan was stopped and each of
it's blades marked with a number. Then
six slips of paper were marked with sim
liar numbers and six jolly fellows drew
slip apiece. The number on the slip cor
responded to the number on one of the
blades, and il was decided that the blade
that was nearest the perpendicular wire
at the bottom of the cage covering the
ian when the latter stopped revolving
should win the pot The latter consisted
of Sc, put up equally by the half dozen
players.
Then the fun began. The lever would
be turned on and as quickly off, and the
fan would revove like lightning, slow
down and stop in half a minute. There
was no kitty to be fed, as in poker; no
percentage of split, as in faro, and no rake
off for the house, as in other games. 1t
was a pure luck affair and the heaviest
loser was not more than S. out at the end
of an hours whirling, while the excitement
had been as intense as the most devoted
gambler could desire. Next day each one
of the six introduced the electric fan TO
his friends in its new guise as a spinning
Jenny and now the game has spread all
over town. The interest in IL is heighten-
ed a good deal by having a blank blade,
which when it stops at the winning wire
constitutes jackpot and necessitates the
players putting up an extra stake Just as
in poker. So from dollar ante in brokers'
office TO whirling for coppers by district
messengers the electric fan is being
brought into requisition with general hi
larity.

TEST OF a MIND READER.
He Went BIIndfoIded Into "A Drug
Store and Filled a Prescription.
From De Sd. Louis Dispateh.

From the St. Louis Dispatch.
Paul Alexander tombstone m.ndreader.
gave performance Thursday morning at
Alexander's drug store on Olive street.
which demonstrated again the peculiar
power he possesses.
The test was the severe one of filling a
prescription while blindfolded. the act be-
ing done through reading the mind of the
prescription clerk. DR.. Heine Marks wrote
prescription which called for forty
grains Of salol and forty grains of acetani-
lid. TO be divided into eight powders. The
prescription was given TO +. +. Whitcomb,
the regular prescription clerk. Mr. John
stone was heavily blindfolded and did
not know what articles were named in the
prescription.
Mr.. Whitcomb was instructed to place
the ends of the fingers of his left hand
on Mr.. Johnstone's right wrist, directly
over the motor nerve, the theory being
that this point of contact OF the two indi-
viduals made a complete circuit of their
two nervous systems, and thereby Mr..
tombstone could feel an electric shock
when Mr.. Whitcombs mind was coucen-
trated on one subject and could read the
lattcr's mind. With Mr.. Whtcomb's fin
gers touching his wrist. Mr.. tombstone,
blindfolded, went behind the prescription
case and first held up the prescription as

the prescription, and II was Mr. John
stones feat to follow the clerks mind and
find the bottles, the scales and other nee
essary articles, and then weigh the med
icines and divide them In proper proper
lions.
Mr.. tombstone first found the salol bot
tie and set 1t down on the table. Then he
picked out the other bottle of powder
from among hundreds of bottles on the
shelves. Next he found the scales, busted
them Off then placed thin tissue paper
On them and adjusted them. Then he went
to a drawer and found the spatula AMI
proceeded to weigh out the proper guam
tity Of the two medicines, even adjusting
the delicate scales to n nicely.
Now a little marble slab was wanted.
on which the powder could be placed
ard divided into eight parts. For some
reason Mr.. Whitcomb happened to .hink
of an old slab that had not been used
for months which he knew was in a
certain drawer. Instantly Mr.. tombstone
led the way 10 the drawer and found the
old slab. Then he quickly poured the
powder into a mortar which he found,
and stirring with the pestlc placed the
mixture on the slab. and by using the
spatull divided It into eight powders,
and the feat of mindreadlng was COM
peted.
Dr. Marks DIT. Phillips and twenty-five
persons who witnessed the performance
were satisfied Mr.. Alexander. the drug
gist, said that no strange clerk could 20
behind the prescription case and find ar
ticles needed and iii a prescription as
quickly as did Mr. tombstone blindfolded.
Every drug clerk has his own peculiarlties
and idiosyncrasics in fillirg a prescription.
Mr. Johnstonc so thoroughly read Clerk
Whitcomb's mind that he followed the lat
ters idiosyncrasies in hadling the drugs
and instruments.
