PECULIAR NAMES.
The Queer Way Ten Million Chf1dre
Were Designated.

The Queer Way Ten Million Children
Were Designated.
"In a long experience I'm the treasury
department l have come across a very
large number OF names, many of which
are rather peculiar" explained an old
official but think the list OF names
In connection with the subscription to
the per cent bonds surpasses any
thing in the way of popularity that
have ever observed. OF these the one
that struck me most was a man who
signed himself Ten Million and who re-
sides out In Oregon We thought the
name was an Imaginative one and
wrote the man that 1t was desired that
the bonds should be registered In real
names only and that no further atten-
ton would be paid to his subscription
until be was heard from. He replied
that his name was Ten Million. His
letter was written on the printed letter
head of the firm Of Million & Million,
two brothers.
Then followed an explanation that
his father and mother were unable to
select names for their children that
were mutually satisfactory and that as
a result. though they had had ten chill
dren, none OF them was ever chriStened
formally. The first child was girl,
and she was known only as One Mil
lion. The second child. also a girl was
known as Two Million. Thus they ran
along until Ten Million was reached.
and he was the writer of the letter. the
other member Of the firm being
brother whose only name. as far as the
family was concerned. was Seven Nil
lion, the seventh child. He added that
One Million had afterward called her
self Una Million. that the third girl was
known after she had grown up as Trio
Million. The others had taken on addi-
tons to their ma mes. and he bad adopt
ed the name of TENTS Million. but his
real name was Ten Million and nothing
else The bonds were issued to him
and on the books of the department
were registered in the name Of Ten
Million" Washington Star.
