ATTEMPTS TO CHEAT THE TREASURY.
From The Philadelphia Times.


Frauds on the redemption division Of the Treasury
constantly being tried. What called drawer
scraps presented almost every day with de-
mands for new money in exchange These are the
torn-off fragments OF notes which found in tis
and cash drawers. A young man employed In .
NewYork bank once sent In boxful OF them,
claiming 500 They were the result of many sweep.
ings carefully accumulated. Unfortunately they
represent ted ST. more II anything. and the youth
lucky TO escape prison. An Ohio woman not
long ago mailed TO the Treasury a number OF rolled
up pellets OF paper. which she said represented
So note up by a enid. The pellets straight
ened and found to be thirteen centre strips cut
lcngthwise from maiy s. bills. 1t Is hardly neces
sary say that tie woman got nothing In return.
People seem 10 think that Uncle Sam is precious
green; a. the same time the redemption division
does get cheated now and then undoubtedly.
Late in the year 1892 1t discovered in the
demption division that the full number OF $500 notes
Of the series Of 1874 had been redeemed Neverthe-
less OF this series still coming In for
demption At first II was thought. that there had
been overssue by some straDa mistake Ac-
cordngly all OF these rotes from that time
withheld from the customary destruction and their
II duplicates would appear. But no duplicates did
appear. and II Is believed that the trouble
from error on the part OF the officials appointed
to act a destruction committee. They must have
made a mistake ir their record OF notes destroyed
putting down the figures 1874 instead OF those Of
some other year.

A LIGHTHOUSE WITHOUT A LIGHT.
From Tit Bits.

FROM III blts
The most extraordinary OF all lighthouses Is to be
found Arnish Rock. Stornoway Bay-a rock
which IL separated from the Island Of Lewis by q
channel over 500 feet wide. II is In the Hebrdes.
Scotland. On this rock conical beacon II erected
and on It's summit a lantern is fixed. from which,
night after night shines light which is seen by
the fishermen far and wide. Yet there is no burn
ing lamp in the lantern and no attendant ever goes
to IT, for the simple reason that there is no lamp TO
attend to, no wick to train. and no o-weil TO re-
plenish. , .
The way In which this peculiar lighthouse L. II.
Illuminated is this ION the Island OF Lewis, 500 feet
or so away Is a lighthouse and from window In
the tower stream Of light Is projected on mirror
in the lantern the summit OF Arnish Rock. These
rays are reflected to arrangement Of prlsms. and
by their action converged to focus outside the
lantern from where they diverge In the necessary
direction"
The consequence is that to all ntents and pur-
poses a lighthouse exists which has neither lamp
nor observation-disclosures. and yet which gives SER
viceable a iight-taking into account the require
ments of this localityas II elaborate and costly

THE TUNNEL THEIR CASTLE.
TRAMPs HAD WHAT THEY THOUGHT A
SNUG HOME.

LITTLE COLONY OF THEM SPENT THE WINTER
on THE SITE OF JoNEs's wooDs-THEY GAVE
THE POLICE NO TROUBLE TO SPEAK Of
GONE on THEIR SUMNER TOURS NOW.
Since Jones's Woods. Sixty-nnth-st. and Avenue
A, destroyed by fire about eighteen months
ago. IL has become the home of queer lot OF men,
On the cleared piece of land is veritable nest OF
tramps They swarm In the beer tunnel. which has
several entrances. One is by long, narrow +
shaped passage built of brick. wide enough to admit
Of three men entering abreast. and so high that
man standing another's shoulders cannot touch
the top OF the bricks. This passage Is not roofed
over. and opens the river front. giving an abund-
of light and pure air 1t leads directly to the
mouth of the beer tunnel. which used for stor-
ing beer when the place picnic ground. This
tunnel is only q cosey shelter in the winter. but
a delightfully."- cool place in the summer. II could
comfortably accommodate twenty-five men.
SOON A FAvORITE HAUNT.
II was not long after the fire when many tramps
began to congregate about the grounds Most OF
them were In rags. much IN need OF cleansing. ana
with no visible baggage. From all accounts they
were quiet and happy lot They gave offence to
no one, were seldom seen TO beg In the neignoor-
hood. and were better behaved than the most OF
their kind. For some months they made their homo
in the old beer tunnel many OF them leaving IT for
other quarters at the first signs OF spring.
One Of the residents OF the tunnel last winter wore
several overcoats OF various sizes. which were orig
inay black. but had been turned by the weather
a brown hue He was frequently seen drinking
early in the morning at hydrant near SEVENTEEN
ST. and Avenue A. His morning meal usually con-
sisted OF crust Of stale bread AZ night he was
seen going TO the tunnel. carrying horse blanket
under his arm. This he presumably used to sleep
on and under. A Waterman OH the grounds told
Tribune reporter that this tramp was a most pecu-
liar man.
