BURIED TREASURE
IN CIRCULATION

For the past week there have been
quantity of bright, ne dollars IN
circulation in Hood RiScr, and as
they bear date thirty yeals old, there
was suspicion that gang OF counter
feiters we're working near the city. IL
appears, however, that they came from
the mint at San Francisco before the
fire.
The government pays for the trans
portation of coin from the mints TO
banks, but this year, the appropria-
tion Of the government for that pur-
pose became exhausted, and in March
the banks we're notified OF this fact
and informed that after April lst,
money would have to be sent at the
expense of the party ordering 1t. AS
result, the demand before that date
became unusual, and H. filling orders
the mint was scrspil 4 the bottom OF
the pile.
Under ordinary conditions, the
coming and going Of money from the
mint leaves the usual surplus un-
touched as it is continually used oil
the top of the pile, the employees not
caring to move tons OF silver to keep
the money wearing all alike. In the
shipmentj to the local baDks, some
packages Of dollars we're sent here that
had laid 10 the vaults undlstul Led for
thirty yeare.

merchants responded liberally and
$500 was raised from this source. The

the subscription list, he said. The
permission was accorded him and he
wrote at the foot Of the list:

Sears, Roebuck Il Co., 80

The church people saw the point
when tho minister read the list of
donors to tho building fund from the
pulpit, and since the dedication of
the church there have been no mail
orders sent out from that Kansas town.
