TRACE STOLEN BANK NOTES.
Clever Work of Government DOEsO- uvss Have Been ESwARAaA
 with SuO0eaAs $ .F

The statement from sscret vservfce Headquarters that active search for the thief who recently stole eight blank bank notes from the bureau oi engraving and printing has been abandoned calls to mind one or two interesting incidents in this case. The loss of the notes was discovered the morning after it occurred, when s the package sheets from which they had been extracted was subjected to rs- count. Warning was at once sent out to the national banks to look out for eight notes lacking seal, check mum bers and signatures. In some guar. ters this warning was deemed super huous on the ground that no well, regulated bank would accept such i'm perfect notes over its counter; :. but the response was that some expert forger might make clever representa- tions of the seal, numbers and sigma ture, and that in the haste of handling large packages of money the trick might pass muster. Only, six of the notes have since come to hand, but every, one of. these had found its. way into a we.l-regulated bank. Indeed, one of the first was sent to the treas ury by 6 leading bank in this city says the Chicago Chronicle, s with letter explaining iu a tone of premature exultationt that the note had been found in Y the midst of, 8 package of good ones sent to the bank by bank in Georgetown in settle ment of an outstanding balance Hardly had this letter time to go upon file, however, before second@bahk in good standing in Washingtoa starned in another of the notes, which it, had received from bank number one, on which the laugh nowScentered:F The treasury authorities are beginning to wonder how much good is done by Ao- tincation after all.
 Inquiries have been many ever ainoe the loss of the imperfect notes as to where the loss falls in such cases In this instance it would fall on the, ,9os, ernment, as the notes had not passed out of it's custody at the time of their abstraction. The fact that there was no seal, check number or signature counts for nothing. The government had printed upon the notes the in signia of value and innocent; holders had been deceived thereby The Ire demption division. of the treasury de partment is required to redeem, all genuine notes, perfect or imperfect which come into it through the regu- lar channels It happens once in a while, though rarely, that after the government has turned over to bank a parcel of notes ordered by itI some of these notes are stolen before sig nature or overlooked in the process of signing a large number. In all cases where notes have actually passed into the custody of bank and after ward got into the hands of innocent holders the bank is responsible and it's bond on deposit with the treasurer are held liable as security for the re, demption of the notes. The theory of the law is that if 8 bank does not wish to be held responsible for its notes still in an imperfect stage it should take better care of them

MARSHMALLowss IN BLOOM.

The Jersey meadows rarely como in for anything but abuse Suburban travellers who are carried over that marshy stretch of land twice day grow to look upon it as one of the hardships of their days journey.f At times they provoke condemnation no less pronounced than the kind usually directed toward Hunters Point. It was this same stretch of reeds and grass that gave rise to a conundrum that was very popular for awhile in front parlors along the -lIne of . fer tain New Jersey railroad. The qheS- tioner used to ask whyythe president of the road was generous man to his patrons. The answer used to be that he first gave every passenger a scent crossing the meadows and then passed all tho oranges.
 But there is something beyond the scent of the meadows to attract at- tention to them now, says a special to the Chicago Inter Ocean They are abloom from one end to another with the marshmaliow flower, and its dain- ty color adds an exquisite tone to the rank green that is usually the only color visible to the eye. Every Au- gust the flowers begin to bloom. This year their pink and white blossoms are scattered oyer the whole range of the, meadows. z Usually they last throughout the entire month

SIXTEEN TO ONE.

A correspondent writes: will you
explain in your paper what 16 to l
means? Does 1t mean sixteen ounces
of silver to be equal to one ounce in
gold? Also state what the ratio is now,
Is it IA to /? would also like your
opinion of what effect free coinage
would have on individuals and corpora
tons"
Sixteen to one, as used by the silver
men, means that sixteen ounces of sill
yer shall be called equal to one ounce
of gold. The actual commercial ratio
is now nearly twice that. AS to the eff
feet free coinage would have on indi-
viduals and corporations, nobody can
tell Just what 1t would be, but a large
majority of the individuals and corpot-
atoms in this country that are prosper
GUS and desire to continue SO are sure
II wouldn't have good effect on them.
So they have voted against 1t once and
are going to vote against 1t again.

WISE ACTION.

By the unanimous vote of the Ma
tional Committee of the Gold Democra-
cy yesterday afternoon the scheme of
fusion with the anti-imperialistic
movement originating with the recent
meeting at the Plaza hotel in New
York city was defeated, as was also the
plan to put a Gold Democratic ticket
in the field this year.
This means, we suppose, that the COM
mittee recognizes the futility, if not the
danger of putting up third ticket. 1t
would probably help Bryan, if it did
and that is just what the
Gold Democrats don't want to do. They
can shoot straight by voting for Nc
Kinley, and most of them will doubt
less do it.

Belts" AS in the Orphic and Pythagor-
can sects of ancient Greece, these Chi
nese members are subjected to rigorous
temperance. They are prohibited from
smoking, a terrible privation for Chi

mystery is celebrated on the 21st day of
the seventh month. Then they ascend

caldrons, where priests mix the drops
with leaves of jujube and green tea.
When the mixture is dried it Is called
the spiritual jelly" and 1t is divided

THE RUSSIAN THISTL y.

Not long ago there was a Russian
feared that the vile plant would over
run much good land, make much trou-
BILE for farmers and spread so that It
could not be exterminated st is not
yet generally looked on as a friend of
the human race, but there is not quite
as much hostility to it and fear of 1t
as there was. 1t Is now said to have
a high food value, especially for sheep.
The Colorado Experiment station has
collected from stock owners considera-
BILE testimony on the subject, and much
of 1t Is favorable to the use of the this
Lamborn, Kentucky, considers thistle
hay good feed when cut before the
thorns harden. Leo Thoman, of Colo
RADIO, wintered part of his cattle during
1S99-1900 on Russian thistle hay and
found they did fully as well as those
fed millet. Another farmer writes that
he never made better butter nor more
of it than when he fed his cows on
young Russian thistles. and another ex-
presses the opinion that "a patch Of
Russian thetles is worth as much for
sheep feed, as the same area in grass"
The Colorado station adds THE inves
tigation has not been carried far enough
to warrant us In recommending the
Russian thistle for hay when there is
plenty of other forage. But the above
Testimony convinces us that those whose
land is occupied by these thistles
should cut some and try them as feed
for stock"
If the Russian thistle is really a
blessing in disguise 1t has been well dis
guised.

| People who go to court to get unpleas-
ant neighbors rebuked or squelched
| don't usually make a very good appear
ance, but some people in Washington
who have neighbors are entitled to the
general sympathy they will receive.
Washington is the capital of the coun-
many ways, but 1t appears that there
are people there who still play croquet,
and play it with an ardor that is not
satisfied with daylight hours for its en-
joyment. Some of these devotees on
Huntington place play until II o'clock
at night on every evening of the week,
the complaint to the court alleges. They
use oil torches for illumination, thus
adding smoke and foul odors to other
discomforts such as the sounds of the
striking mallets and the loud voices of
the contestants. These noises and odors
float in through the open windows Of
the compliments, who would rather
sleep than play croquet. The Judge be-
fore whom all this was recited granted
temporary injunction and the case
will soon be argued
1t doesn't, seem that this case should
require much argument Anybody who
can't get enough of croquet In the day
time should speedily be enjoined and re-
strained. If 1T were possible to play
golf at night that might be worth talk
ing about But croquet!

The government of Ontario, Canada,
has issued card of instructions to
campers, telling how and where to build
fires and how to extinguish them. The
main points urged are care in the selec-
ton Of a place to build a fire, taking
note of the risks of communication by
leaves, grass or brush, and a warning to
campers not to leave camp even for a
day without putting out the fire. The
Grow Lands department of Ontario

court of New York, sitting at Rochester.
has handed down a decision affirming
the decision of Justice Hiscock in the
case Of the Onondaga Indians against
John Boyd Thacher of Albany. Justice
Hiscock's decision was against the In
dams. The suit was to recover possess
sion of several belts of wampum on
which were inscribed the records of the
Six Nations from the formation of the
confederacy. These belts We're sold to
Colonel Darlington in 1892 by Thomas
Webster, an Onondaga Indian, who was
the hereditary wampum keeper Later
they came into the possession of Mr..
Thatcher. The Onondaga Nation, the
plaintiff in this action, damned that the
belts were tribal possessions, and the
wampum-keeper had no right to dispose
of them.
