TIE WEIGHT OF MONEY.

Deceptive Appearance of Metal as
Well as Paper.
"The weight of money is very de-
ceptiye," said an employee of the treas.
ury. "For instance, young man came
In here one day with young woman.
I was showing them through the de-
partment and happened to ask him If
be thought the young girl was worth
her weight in gold. He assured me
that he certainly did think So, and
after learning that her weight yfs LOG
pounds we figured that she would be
worth in gold $28,647. The young man
was fond enough of her to think that
was rather cheap.
another thing that deceives many
people," he continued, sis the weight
Of paper money. Now, how many one
dollar bills do you think it would take
to weigh as much as one five dollar
goldpiece?'
On a guess the visitor said fifty, and
the clerk laughed.
81 have heard guessas on that" he
said, ''all the way from so to 800,
and from men who have handled
money for years. The fact Of the mat
ter is that with a five dollar goldpiece
on one scale you would only have to
put six and one-half dollar bills on the
other scale to balance it.
'"The question afterward was put to
several people and elected answers all
the way from 20 to 1000, the majority
guessing from 800 to 500.
'"Taking the weight of gold coins and
bills given at the treasury, it was fgur-
ed that a five dollar goldpiece weighs
,206 of an ounce ayoirdupOis. The en-
ployee at the treasury who handled
the paper money said that 100 bills
weigh four and one-half ounces. That
would make one bill weigh .45 of an
ounce, and between six and seven bills
would balance the goldpiece.
i On the proposition of how much
money one can lift. figures We're OBJ
rained at the treasury. Where certain
numbers of coins were placed in bags
and weighed as standards, for exam
ole, the standard amount of gold coin
is $4,000, which weighs 1S12 pounds
Five hundred silver dollars weigh 3o13
hounds. while 5000 in halves, or 400
coins, weigh eleven pounds.
Two hundred pounds of coin money
of various kinds is made up as fol-
lows: Silver dollars, $2,617; half dol
lars, $3,636; quarter dollars, S3,657;
dimes, S3,615.SO; nickels, $917; pennies
S295.61.
In one dollar bills the same weight
would amount to ST, 111.-Washington

sentatlves in the legislature to
work for the passage Of a bill
the present system. The North
wisconsin Press Association at a
recent meeting adopted resolu-

there seems to be a general move
IN that direction all through the
state.
It IS argued that most Wiscon
sin counties contain from twenty
i've to fifty townships, villages
and Wardsl each entitled to rep
resentative, making the board too
large, slow and cumbersome OF
action. Whereas, three or five
members could get through with
the same amount of business in
half the time and do as well or
better. On the other hand it is
claimed that it would not be wise
to place the power in the hands
of SO few. In Massachusetts these
commissioners are elected at the
spring election without reference
to their place of residence in the
county,
The matter will probably come
before the next Legislature in this
state.-New North.
