Merchants Watching dor Bad Counterfeit
SIS Bills.
Local and Genernl.,Notes of Interest
From Across Rock Creek-In s-.~>- .
the Churches.

The Stars notice offthe appearance here
in several places of counterfeit five-dollar
bills has put merchants on the watch. The
spurious greenbacks, or at least the one
passed on Mr.. H. w. Offutt, purports to be
of the department series of 1856. The
face of Grant is very bad, the head being
very scrubby and in places indistinct. The
marginal engraving is also poor. Probably,
though, the most noticeable defect In the
bill is the absence of the silken thread. An
attentive touch easily discloses the poor
quality of the paper. The number is also
of faded appearance, the blue ink showing
up badly The number borne Is B, 59945227.
w. S. Rosecrans and NJ H. Nebeker appear
on the note as register and treasurer, re-
Spectively.
An NJ street shoe dealer was also a vic
tim of the Shower"
The receiving teller of the Farmers and
Mechanics Bank, Mr.. Aud. has had occa-
sion in the last day or two to turn down a
spurious five-dollar note containing the de-
fects noted.
Made Mistake.
Jacob Knapp, an old German. was brought
to the station on Saturday on the report of
two young men, who claimed that he was
violently insane and was torturing himself
by pulling out his hair and beard by the
handful and otherwise acting in a de-
mented manner
The patrol was sent to the Chain bridge,
where the man was said to be. There the
officers found the German and thought he
was a little "fiighty.'' There were no evil
dences of personal violence.
The man was without hair or beard, but
the departure had not taken place recently
or violently. AS the old fellow could give
no good account of himself though, and as
he appeared to be without home, the Of
ticer brought him back and entered va
grancy" opposite his name on the police
records.
He speaks but few words of English.
has worked as a pork butcher His family
are in Germany.
He has been bald headed and compare
lively beardless for years.

Map of North America.

To the Editor OF The Evening Star:
I noticed in your paper of a few days ago
the reprint of an article from Notes and
Queries. London, relating to an old French
map of America. The author of the article
seems to think he has made very great
find and seeks Information as to its his
tory.
The map is one of a series published in
c. H. A. Jaillot's Atlas Francois, fol. Paris.
1G,5, No. 10, and is by a French seographer,
Nicholas Sansan. The atlas is not scarce
and consequently should not bring a large
price.
l have observed that maps are often taken
from their original place of publication
sold separately, and being unknown to the
public, often bring a higher price than the
volume from which they have been taken
To obviate this l am now compiling an
index of maps in all aliases and books re-
latng to America. p. LEE PHILLIPS.

Under the present laws governing the
reform school. 1t is provided, section 0,
That every boy sent to the reform school
shall remain until he is twenty-one years
of age, unless sooner discharged or bound
as an apprentice; but boy shall be re-
tanned after the superintendent shall have
reported him fully reformed Under the
present system of instruction and of honor
badges ana promotions adopted by the
board, 1t is possible for a boy, provided he
be, so far as the superintendent is able to
judge, sufficiently reformed to come within
the meaning of the section quoted, to earn
his discharge inside of two years. When
discharged, the board has no further con-
troll over him. The board has for years
been of the opinion that the discharge from
the school should be limited, not an alb
solute one; that Congress should be asked
to provide, by legislation, for such control
by the board of trustees of the boys after
discharge Will enable it TO reclaim and
return to the school any boy who, by his
bad conduct, shows himself amenabe to
recommitmcnt. This control is given to in
stitutions of like character IN many of the
states, and is found to work very satisfac-
torily. As long ago the first session of

Mr.. clssserby srav,..

After tho usual periodical blast against
the wild extravaganza with which Mrs.
Clattsrby manages the household affairs,
The burning of two bundles Of wood where
one would do, and so on, Mr.. Clatterby
winds up with:
I'D just Ike to have the running Of
this house for about one week. I'd show
you what could be done. There's NO end
OF little things that we might economic
on, and every little hslps. Now we're get.
ting an extra quart Of milk day. That's
only s cents cay, but that's $S5 a year,
enough to buy shoes for all the children,
and stockings too. Why, graciousl there's
lots OF things we might cut Of and never
miss 'em ut all"
We'll, Jonas" said Mrs. Clatterby,
suppose you try 1t and see what you can
do. You sake the money this week, and
you run the house If you think you can
run this house on what you give me and
buy clothes for the children and pay the
laundry and the gas and the 40 other
things that you don't know anything
about, why, you re nightly mistaken. But
you take the money, and you try 1t just
one week, and yOu'lP'-
Then Mr.. Clatterby went of to smoke
