HABIT OF SWAPPING BILLS.
One of the Curious Customs of Per-
sons Who Handle Money in
Business.

A clerk in a cigar store on Pennsyl-
vania avenue was handed a $40 note
in exchange for a purchase of man s
chief solace Going to the cash regis
ter he returned with a handful of
small bills, says the Washington Star
These he counted out one by one,
swapping ana stripping each bill
through his fingers with a care and
vigor as though his life depended upon
an endurance test of each of the OBJ
long pieces of stamped paper. One
of the notes was somewhat worn by
age and usage, and when his fingers
gripped it, it yielded and was torn in
two. The clerk calmly placed the
torn bill on the little pile of money,
and showed it toward the purchaser
with the customary stereotyped thank
you"
The purchaser with equal prompt
tude separated the torn pieces from
the pile, tossed them back to the
clerk, saying shortly, mend it your
self"
"Of the many curious habits that
PNSpiN WIN anu CudlS6 uOuty
have" remarked the customer as he
was leaving the store, 81 think the
habit some cashiers and clerks in
dulge in of swapping and pulling bills
in making change is the most aggra-
waiting. And do you know that not
one bank teller in a hundred will do
1t? A bank teller will reach in his
money drawer, extract a handful of
money, hand you from a dozen to ten
times that number of separate bills,
and it is the exception where he snaps
single one of them, unsss it is the
very last bill he will drop on the pile
But the average cashier will snap
bills like flags in a windstorm, usual
ly going through the performance
twice, apparently reluctant to let them
leave his hands, and seemingly to
take a fiendish delight in hearing the
money crackle, with a corresponding
eutburst when he or she tears bill
in two. 1t is very odd"

INDIANS WANT TO LEARN.
Those of Alaska Call for Schools to
Make Them Like White
Man.

The craving of the Alaskan Indians
for education is almost pitiable, says
the Southern Workman. Ask them
what they need, and the answer is the
same:
Schools for the children, so that
they may become smart like the white
man"
They are very affectionate people to
their children; every benefit is for the
child. The older people fully realize
the fact that they represent the past.
They have always been producers, and
their faith in themselves is half of
the struggle that lies before them To
this end they should be provided with
day schools in all of the villages of a
hundred or more adults.
In some sections where the families
are distributed over a large area of
country and in the case of the children
or parents unable to provide for their
support, and again where orphans may
be enslaved by distant relatives, board
ing schools or homes are equally neces-
sary.

THE STATEHOOD BILL
win Not Come Up for Some
Days Yet.

Washington, d. C.-The Hamilton
statehood bill, making Oklahoma
and Indiana Territory one state
and New Mexico and Arizona an
other, and which passed the house
by a good majority, has been re-
ported by the territorial committee
in the senate and championed by
Senator Beveridge.
No motion of any kind was made
the bill and several days will prob
ably pass before Mr.. Beveridge will
be recognized for motion to take
the statehood bill up as unfinished
business of the senate. The ship
ping bill at the present time has the
right Of way, with Senator Gallinger
IN charge Of the measure. Until the
fate Of the shipping bill Is fairly in
dicated by the action Of the senate
and some agreement Is reached for
vote, the statehood measure will
be held in abeyance. II no agree
ment is reached within a reasonable
time, the steering committee Will
probably take the matter in hand
and decide what shall be the pro-
gram with regard to statehood. 1t
,s expected that some action will be
taken in the course of the week.
