Help Mariners.
DR.. H. N. H. Lugrin of this city has
invented an appliance for dispelling fog,
for which he secured a patent, Tuesday.
The machine consists chiefly of a 37-inch
pipe attached to powerful blower
which forces a strong current of air
through the pipe in such way that 1t
makes a hole in the fog bank through
which the navigator can see for some
distance. The thing has been tried once,
and in that test hole was blown
through a bank of dense fog in Boston

ing the test were able to count the
bricks IN a wall ITS feet away, although
objects could not be seen 30 feet away

Not Convinced of IT'S Spuriousness Untu
1t Fell Apart After Being Soaked
in Hot Water. Whole Issue of
$26,OOO.OOO to Be
Called in

Apress dispatch from Washington says
that one of the most dangerous counter
teits ever discovered has made it's appear
ance.
John H. Cramer of the sub-treasury at
Philadelphia has carried to the secret
service Office five 500 counterfeit silver
certificates with the head OF President
Monroe. Their general appearance is
excellent, and after close ex, mination
the officials of the treasury cash room
were undecided about their genuineness.
and it was only after one of the notes
had been soaked in hot water, when the
two pieces forming the front and back of
the note came apart, that they were con-
WINGED of the fraud
The chief of the bureau of engraving
pronounced the counterfeit very dap-
gerous production. 1t was engraved on
steel and printed on two pieces of paper
pasted together and the colored silk fiber
distributed between them.
In view of the dangerous nature of the
counterfeits Secretary Gage decided to
dispense with this issue and call in all
the 500 silver certificates, of which there
are about S26, 100000 outstanding.
These certificates will be exchanged
for certificates of smaller denominations
and the plates destroyed. AS soon as new
plates can be engraved new series will
be issued.
The assistant secretaries of all the sub
treasures will be requested to send to
the treasury in Washington all the 500
silver certificates in their possession,
and notice will be sent to banks and
other institutions to do the same thing.

declaring the bonds of the United States
to be payable in silver dollars, and as
sorting that "to restore to their coinage

The Tillmans to Lock Horns.

There is a growing probability that the
Tillman brothers of South Carolina will
be heard on the stump In opposition to
each otherin the next campaign. Elk
Congressman George D. Tillman, who is
opposed TO the dispensary law and IN
favor of high license and local option, is
being urged by his friends TO run for the
governorship. His brother, Senator Ben
Tillman, says if the dispensary should
be attacked he would take the stump
and defend it. Both of the Tillmans are
powerful stump speakers, and if they
were to clock horns in the campaign
the fight would be an exceedingly not
and interesting one. The "brother act
of the Taylors of Tennessee would not be
a marker to it.
