DECIMAL SYSTEM
IN U. S. CURRENCY.
TENDENCY TO ESCAPE FROM IT.
Official of Treasury Department Re-
views the Issuance of Coins Not
Decimal Fractions of
Dollar.

Speaking of the bill introduced in Con-
gress to replace the old system of weights
and measures by the metric system. a
high official of the Treasury Department
said:
1T was originally intended that the
currency of the United States should be
decimal throughout. but somehow there
seems to have been an Irresistible ten
dency to escape from that system.
Quarter Not a Decimal.
THE quarter is certainly not decimal
fraction of a dollar, and one is at loss
to account for the persistence of the
number three, which has turned up in
the three-cent pieces ttwo kinds) and the
three-cent postage stamp. That three
dollar bills have not been printed Is due
merely to the good sense OF secretaries of
the Treasury. inasmuch as the now exist
ing law, which dates back to 1854. autho-
riZeS the issue of notes of that denomina-
ton. There was, as will be remembered.
a three-cent note in tie days of the frac-
tional paper currency.
The nickel throe-eent piece was au-
thorizcd in 1865, and stopped in 1890. In
flying eagle, which was discontinued in
1864. and in the latter year the two-cent
piece was started, running until 1873. The
twenty-cert silver piece was first Issued
in 1875, but after three years 1t was with
drawn, because SO many people mistook
it for quarter
4 Serious Omission.
Another of Uncle Sans recent mis-
takes in coinage was the nickel fiye-cent
pieces with the big V, and without any
mark of cents on tan omission of
which ingenious but dishonest persons
token and passing it for a five dollar gold
piece. The trade dollar authorized in
1873. was intended for expectation TO the
Orient, where, being worth slightly more
as bullion than the Mexican dollar it
was expected to make a market for
American silver. 1t was suspended in
1873.
The old copper cents and half-cents re-
turned to the Treasury are converted in
to new-style cents by adding to their ma
terial five per cent OF tin and zinc. Bronze
twO-cent pieces already have this alloy,
and they are converted into cents also.
Blanks for the modern cents are sold
to the Government under contract at the
rate of % cents per 1,000 SO that Uncle
Sans profit on these little pieces is very
large. On the other hand. he loses on the
gold coins each OF which contains eX-
actly its face value in gold bullion. with
out counting the copper alloy. Our nickel
coins are Is per cent copper"

Acquaintance with Il Rattler.

g. Wharton James, who paid Wins
low brief visit last week, is one of
the most widely known men in North
ern Arizona as we'll as one of the best
Informed about the Indian tribes and
natural wonders of this region. He has
had MANY varying experiences, not the
least thrilling Of which occurred last
winter i'll Phoenix when he was bitten
by rattlesnake. Prof. James is en-
deavoring % find an antidote for the
rattlesnake's poison and it was with
this purpose in view that he was study
ing the reptile. The head of the snake
WAS held firmly between the thumb
and fingers of one hand, and though
unable TO strike it moved it's upper jaw
to one side and drew its fangs across
the thumb, intiicting two sharp cuts.
Prof. James Immediately received
medical attention, the antidOte used
being permanganate of potassium,
and with his magnificent physique to
back him he has now completely re-
covered from the effects of the poison.
With regard to the popular impression
as to the efficacy of whisky in such
cases Prof. James said that it was now
considered by experts to be wrong; if
used at all, it should be administered
in very small doses.
Prof. James is now preparing to erect
an hotel at Bass on the line of the
Grand Canyon railroad, and is also
making extensive improvements at
Bass Camp OH the rim of the canyon.
The announcement that he is publish
ing newspaper is somewhat prema-
ture, but he hopes to have the project
under way about the first of the year
and will make it all interesting feature
of the life at the Grand Canyon.
