The graft of the itinerant beggars
in Savannah came to an end yester-
day when Mayor Myers notified the
police and the detectives through SUI
perintendent Reilly that the beggars
must get off the streets and keep off.
The order goes into effect at once and
this, means that the gentry who float

of the earth in time to work on the
sympathies of the holiday shoppers
and have since remained here must
seek other fields for their operations.
This order does not of course, af-

Chinese Bill Amended.

Washington-By an almost unani'
nous vote the house committee on for
eign affairs has stricken out OF the
Nitchell-Kahn Chinese exclusion bill
he paragraph prohibiting ships flying
he American flag from employing Chi
nese sailors under $4,000 penalty for
each offense. This provision has
proved one Of the chief sources of con
roversy over the bill. The senators
Ind representative from the Pacific
states regard this provision as most
important.
The main argument leading to str1k-
ng out the provision was that Amer.
can ships on the Pacific coast com
pete with English and Japanese lines
md that the latter ships would indi
ectly receive a great advantage in
continuing the employment of Chinese
&c $3.50 per month, whereas the Amer
can ships would have to pay about
$50 per month for white sailors.

degree hatter the hopes of the supporters
Of the dark blue. Any possible chance
which the Oxonians might have had was
shattered by the result of the toss giving
the light blues Cambridge all the ad-

YANKEE BANK NOTES BEST.
American Printers Head the World in
Execution of Fine Work.


Execution of Fine Work.
Nowhere else in the world has the
art Of printing bank notes been per
fected as it has in the United States.
Jacob Perkins of Massachusetts made
great advances in printing early in the
nineteenth century when he substitute
ed steel for copper plates and devised
method Of making transfers of the
original engraving in soft steel. which
by being afterWarI hardened could be
printed from. Through his eXertions
in connection with other American
bank note printers the bank notes If
this country many years ago attained
that superiority in artistic and mechan-
ical execution over those of all other
nations which they have always since
maintained.
Many and important improvements
have been made in this country IN the
making Of bank notes. notably in the
lathework. by which portions of the
note designating its denomination are
usually executed and various new de-
vices have been tried from time to time
to battle the counterfeiters. The most
effective is that now used by the gov
eminent. whereby notes. bonds, exc,
are printed exclusively on paper which
has small fibers of silk of various col
ors incorporated in its texture. After
the plates are prepared, extreme care
is required IN every process. The best
ink. nicely ground and mixed, must be
used, and the paper wetted with exact
regularity. The best workmen can
hardly print more than 600 Impressions
in a day.
The numbers on bills and bank notes
are printed by a very ingenious me-
chanism which makes it impossible to
commit any fraud by printing two
notes of the same number. The APP
paratus consists of a series of brass
disks, Of which the rim is divided by
channels into projecting compartments.
each containing a figure. The numbers
l to o having been printed in the course
of the revolution of the first disk, the
second disk then presents the figure l,
which, combining with the of the
first disk. forms number 10. The sec
ond disk now remains stationary until
in the course of the revolution Of the
first disk the numbers l to 10 have
been printed, when it presents the fig
ure > and does not move again until
another revolution of the first disk com
pletes the numbers 20 to 20. Thus the
two disks proceed until ninety-nine
notes have been numbered. when the
third disk comes into operation AMI.
with the first two. produces 100. Con
sequeltly. the first disk performs 100
revolutions to ten of the second and
one of the third. The notes may be
numbered Independently by this pro-
cess without the possibility of error,
the machine meanwhile being its own
check.
