Extraordinary precautions are taken
ty the United States government in
the destruction OF its worn out and
filthy paper money. The fact that this
could be used again makes il necessary
that its destruction should be con-
Quoted with care and he made com
plete.
All the paper money that passes
through the treasury is sorted, and the
old bills are sent To the redemption
division, where they are searched for
possible counterfeits. Then they are
carefully counted and tied up into
bundles Of 100 notes each.
A great canceling machine then
drives four holes through each of these
bundles, of which Il careful record is
kept. The piles of bills are then cut
into two parts, one set OF halves going
20 the secretary's office and the other TO
the registers office.
In each place the halves are again
counted. after which they are CHOPPED
by machinery into fragments. Not
satisfied with this, the bits are then
boiled in watts of hot water and alkali
until they are reduced 10 an unrecog-
nizable pulp. This the law permits the
treasury To sell To manufacturers Of
novelties. who make il into little mod
els of the capitol and the White House,
which are sold as souvenirs in the
Washington stores. New bills are is
sued In an amount equal to those
destroyed Youths Companion.

With the delivery of this, our final report, our labors are ended, and we desire to be by your Honor at this time excused from further duty.
 Judge Johnson replied to Mr. Met calf as follows:
 Mir. Secretary and gentlemen of the Grand Jury: On behalf of the good citizens of the District of Alaska l desire to express to you their thanks and commendation for the manner in which you have performed your duties, and wish gentlemen to express to you my hearty appreciation of your work, and to say that through the prosecuting officers of this court, who in the perfor- nance of their duties have been con- stantly in position to judge of your work. the information has come to me on repeated occasions of your manifest ability and of the good work that you wero accomplishing.
 The grand jury which efficiently does it's work performs an important duty under our judicial system, for the grand jury is the motive power or force upon which we depend to put in operation the whole machinery of the law, and therefore upon it depends the peace and quiet and safety of the country.
 Not only is the work by you accom- plished as grand jury worthy of great praise, but the recommendations em bodied in your report are among the most important ever made by the grand iuries of the District and are deserving of immediate attention by those in au- thority.
 I am moreover extremely gratified to receive your renewed assurance of con fdence in the integrity of the officers of the District, knowing as 1 do that you have made a thorough investiga- tion of the charges of official miscon- duct and corruption.
 Having completed your labors in manner which is highly commendable to yourselves, and credit to the peo- pie whom you represent, you are now excused from further duty.
