LIEUT.. COL. LACEY RETIRED.
Was Assigned to Smelling, But Never
Reached the Post.

Lieut.. Col E. F. Lacey, of the Third
United States infantry, was placed on
the retired list, at three-quarterS pay,
Monday, having reached the age limit
of siXty-fOur years, of which over
thirtynine were passed in the service
Of his country.
A sketch of Col Lacey's life is an
eloquent example of how merit wins
promotion and distinction, and also
illustrates the fact that one who has
well learned obedience to the com
mands of others, is himself fitted to
command. Enlisting at the age of
twenty-four years as a private in the
regular army Company l, Second in
fantry) May TO- 1858, he rose through
the successive on-commiSSioned ranks
of corporal and sergeant until July &,
1862, when he received his commission
as second lieutenant in the Second in
fantry. Not a year later, May 1, 1863,
to be exact, he became a first lieu
tenant. and on Aug. s, 1866, was COM
misSiOned captain. He was assigned
to the Tenth infantry on July 5, 1870.
Promotion now came slower; it was
not until 1892 that in the regular order
of military events he rose to the rank
of major in the Eighth infantry. He
was transferred to the Seventeenth in
fantry. stationed at Columbus, O., in
1885. Feb. 4 last, he was commissioned
lieutenant colonel Of the Third infantry,
but as the date of his retirement was
so close at hand, he remained on duty
with the Seventeenth and has never

THERE WE'RE 2377 OF THESE

CAPT. WALSH HAS SECURED THEM
VIII Send Them to the Authorities
at Observation-Disclosures Up Every
Slip of Torn Money.

Capt Walsh, of the United States
secret service, has taken possession
of the remnants of paper currency
found in the room occupied by Charley
Zschau at his fathers house. They Will
probably be transmitted to Washington,
Z. c..
In all, 2,377 pieces of bills were found
in Zschau's room. They are the rem
nants of bills of all denomination, from
81 to $100. Some of the pieces are no
larger than the tip of finger, While
others consist of at least a quarter OF
the bill from which they were torn.
The pieces have been sorted out accord
ing to the denomination of the bills, to
which they belong, and placed in sepa-
rate envelopes Capt. Walsh says that
a careful examination and count of
the remnants shows that the bills Of
which they were formerly a part,
amounted to over $4,000.
1t was learned upon inquiry at the
National German-American bank, that
the collection of these remnants of old
and worn bills was fad with Zschau,
who made it a practice to preserve
them every day. That he ever enter
tanned any idea of subsequently pre-
senting them to the United States gov
eminent for redemption as mutilated
currency, is quite improbable, as the
government never redeems bill I'M
less three-fifths of it is preserved.
1t is a fact, nevertheless, that corners
ard other portions of paper money
have been put to other uses than that
of gratifying the notion of mere fad
dists. There are two gentlemen now
serving time in Saltwater who were
convicted of raising the denomination
of genuine bills by artfully blending the
corners of the larger bill with the body
of the smaller. This ENGRAVING pro-
cess has frequently enabled 81 bill
to do the duty of 10 or 20 undiS-
guised notes of that denomination.

SOFT COAL FAMINE,
ST. Paul Begins 10 Feel the Strikes
Effects.

Effects.
BituminouS or "soft" coal is becOm-
ing a very scarce article in ST. Paul,
owing to the prolonged strike of the
miners, and the price has already adj
vanced 25 to so cents a ton. If the
strike continues for any length of time,
and the indications are that it will,
there will be Veritable famine in this
fuel, not only in st. Paul, but the whole
country over. AS an instance of this
it may be mentioned that last week
10000 tons of coal were sold at Duluth
to railroads operating east of st. Paul,
and which have always hitherto pur-
chased their coal in Chicago.
But fortunately for mankind in gen.
eral, the price of hard coal will not
be affected by the strike, which is con-
fined solely to the soft coal mines The
price for stove coal is now $3.50 per
ton, but there will be the usual fall ad-
vance of 25 to 80 cents a ton, taking
effect Sept. Ia hint to the wise, ETC.
One local coal dealer remarked sub
rosa to G o b e reporter, that he was
positive the strike would continue for
some time, as the operators do not want
to see it settled There are over hun
dred of these operators Cten times as
many as in the hard coal business) and
while some Of the largest of them have
combined to keep up the prices, the
smaller ones keep running
the business as he expressed it-and
the strike will have the desired effect
of cleaning out the small fry The
statement is made in the East that if
the strike is settled by Sept 1, there
will be no shortage this winter, but
if it continues until the 1st of October
well, some of the big buildings will be
pretty chilly
