A DENVER EXPERIENCE
Caroline Miskel Hoyt Gives Her Ver-
sion Of It

The first time we played In Denver was
two weeks before election, and we found
that we were right in hotbed Of women
in politics. believe that the women of
Denver and the people generally had an
idea that our play was designed to hold
the people of the state up to ridicule.
and I confess it was with considerable
trepidation that appeared on the stage
the opening night before an audience
that packed the theater and was as cold
as a section Of the north pole. The first
the audience SO much as a ripple Of ap-
plause. The people sat as IL 'quarried"
AS Mr.. Dixey says-and never spent a
more disheartening half hour in my life.
Mr.. Hoyt was SO calm and serene
through 1t all that felt like crying with
vexation. When the curtain went down
he came around to see me.
"I'm afraid" said he, that the piece
is destined to be a failure"
"Oh, don't know, DEAR" he replied,
"they haven't thrown anything yet"
Another act went through the same
still, deadening reception, but / no.
ticed that all the audience was still there.
When the curtain went down the Sec
ond time Mr.. Hoyt came back and said
that II the audience contemplated throw
ing anything there was fine chance for
them to get snowballs out of the atmos-
phere. I never went on q stage feeling
more discouraged, more thoroughly dis

his country will be two partially draped
figures in a reclining attitude. This de-
sign is not unlike that of the two dollar
silver certificates now in common use.
The idea of the treasury officials hav-
ing been to reduce the twenty-seven de.
signs at present in circulation, consist
ing of greenbacks, Sherman notes and
silver certificates, to as few designs as
possible, the simple expedient has been
resorted to of making all bills of one
particular denomination alike, and MAX
ing the difference between the one and
two dollar bills as marked as possible,
and the difference between the five and
ten dollar bills and the other denomi-
nations so plain that the design alone
will enable anyone handling money to
recognize the various denominations
without further scrutiny.
But for the benefit of bank clerks and
others who have to handle large sums of
money in bills another distinctive diff
ference will be made, which will be so
helpful to them as to make the counting
of few million dollars even more of a
pleasure than it has been heretofore.
The distinction will be in the color of the
seal and in the marked coloring of one of
the large figures. The colors have been

ment regarding the new designs for banl

tempt fate by counterfeiting Uncle
Sans currency. These are the objects
at which the treasury department OIL
cials have been aiming, and they have
succeeded well, for every one who has
seen the designs for the new bills de-
clares that for simplicity and uniform
ity they are superior to anything hith-
erto turned out by the bureau of en-
gravingA
Beginning with the small and hum

denomination most familiar to the ma

pearance one of the most patriotic of
bills. In the foreground will perch the

cry patriotic American citizen. at any
time, and will be especially so when seer,
on the new one dollar bill. In the back
ground is the dome of the capitol and
over all floats the stars and stripes. The
design is an exceedingly pretty as well
as a patriotic one.
The design for the two dollar bill has
not yet been quite completed but this
much is known, that the most con-
spicuous part of it will be a portrait of
George Washington in the lower center.
Supporting the portrait Of the father of

will have completed their work on the
new bills, and further time will elapse
before they can be printed and dried
ready for circulation. 1t Is possible that
before that time, if the plan of Secretary
Gage is carried out, there will be a re-
vision and unification of the paper cur
rency of the country. The plan of Sec
retary Gage anticipates such change
in measure and can be easily adapted
to it. If the existing forms Of paper
, money should be done away with by
congress and in their place single class
of government notes substituted, resting
upon the combined gold and silver re-
serve, the design drawn for the secretary
will be applicable and each design can
be put to use.
The unification Of the paper currency
will simply do away with the necessity
for the distinctive coloring of the seals
in order to distinguish between the
present complicated varieties Of paper
money.

Well, we woke them up. When the
piece closed was called before the cur
tain and compelled to make q speech.
and the audience tried to make up In
warmth in the last few minutes what 1t
had lacked during the early part Of the
evening. Much to my Joy I found that
the papers the next morning gave US
splendid notices and that the piece was

The day after our opening Mr.. Hoyt
received letter from Mrs. Lafferty,
Mrs. Estes and Mrs. Leach, leaders
Of the movement for woman's rights, in
viting him to call upon them at the Re-
publican headquarters. He asked my
advice about it, and told him to do as
he pleased. Well, he worried and wor-
ried, and finally compromised by send
ing them twelve dozen American Beauty
roses, which purchase created famine

seems to me. I found them very nice
women, but disposed to give me advice

prevailing color, so that the time-hon-
ored name of "greenbacks," by which
the Americans have been accustomed to
refer to their paper currency, is in no
danger of being retired on a pension.
One very marked improvement that
the new bill will have in comparison
with the old is that on the broad expanse
of green there will be a large white
space. This may not seem very i'm
portant matter to the average citizen,
but nevertheless 1t will cause deeper
wall to be heard in the camp of the
counterfeiters than anything else about
the new bills. For years experts have
been wrestling with the problem of how
to assure the instant detection of the
absence of silk threads, a popularity
of genuine notes that counterfeiters
have always had trouble with. Experts
have agreed that this white space on the
green back OF the bill will effectually
solve the problem, as the absence of the
threads is plainly noticeable on the
white space.
Since it has become known that the
treasury officials contemplated chang
ing and improving the paper currency
the department has been inundated with
all kinds of suggestions, most of them
of the freak variety, and nearly ali
coupled with the assurance that the
writer associated with the moneyed men
of the country and knew that his sug-
gestion embodied the consensus of opin-
ion of those who would have the chief
handling Of the bills. Some of these let
ters have contained suggestions Of
value, and the result of adding to the
ideas gained by years of experience in
the treasury department the best of
these suggestions made from the out
side has produced series of notes that
The herald., 1897-12-12

be recognized from 81 United States
note not only by the text of the bill, but
by the color of the seal and the number,
which are printed by the surface proc
ess. For instance, the seal and the num-
Der on the United States note will be
red, the seal and the number on the
silver certificate blue, and the seal and
the number on the treasury note some
other positive color, easily distinguish
able from either blue or red. This will
enable the accounting officers Of the
government, as well as the banks, to
recognize the character Of the note, al
though the general design will be the
same for all three, and when ALL or most
of the paper money now in circulation
is retired and placed under this plan,
there will be but nine designs, whereas
now we have twenty-seven.
I believe that the people will become
so much more familiar with these nine
designs than they are with the twenty
seven now in circulation, that the diff
Guilty Of successfully passing counter
felt will be increased very materially.
The design will be more in accordance
with the conventional American bank
notes than were the silver certificates
recently issued, but it will be the effort

chosen. On the United States note of the
denomination Of one dollar the seal will
be red, on the silver certificate blue,
While for the treasury notes some other
color will be chosen. This will be dis
tinct advantage to those whose work it
is to count large sums in bills, as all
notes of one denomination will be the
same general design, and the character
of the note will be determined by it's
color, since all notes of class will be
uniform.
1t has been decided with regard to the
back Of the notes to have them nearly all
alike. Green will continue to be the

Sunset at Midnight

After supper that evening we took an
extended walk. 1t was II o'clock, and
yet the snow-capped mountains which
surrounded US were radiant with the
sunset glow. We presently encoun-
tered two young peasants returning

since coming to Norway, whereupon
one of the lads drew from his pocket a
pamphlet and presented 1t to me with a
polite bow. 1t proved to be book of

on landing in America. Not knowing.

1t is, in fact, the great desire Of Nor

A Terrier With a Glass Eye

Mr.. Henry Smith, veterinary sur
geon of Worthington, has performed a
professional operation which is believed
to be unique. A fox terrier belonging
to Mr.. Wells of Warwick road, Worth
ing, had the misfortune to have one of
his eyes so shockingly injured that the
removal of the organ was the only alter
native to the destruction of the terrier.
Mr.. Smith was consulted and the dog
left under his charge. Chloroform was
administered and Mr.. Smith success
fully removed the injured eyeball, re-
placing it with a glass eye. The terrier
is now running about as usual.-St.
