Days 'TwOuld Require to Count For.
tunes of Big AIillionaires.
If the wealth of the rich men of the
United States could be reduced to ma
tional bank notes 1t would not be as
great task for the nineteen expert
money counters of the United States
treasury to tally and set the amount
down In books as the average man
thinks 1t would. Working In the leis-
urely fashion the government permits,
it would take the nineteen experts a
little more than fifty-two days to as
certain the exact number of Rockefel-
ler's dollars. Assuming that Weyer-
hauser, the head of the lumber trust,
has $6OO.OOO0OO. the count Of his
wealth would be completed in Just
about the length of time 1t rained dur.
Ing Noah's yachting cruise.
Say ]. Plerpont Morgan and Andrew
Carnegie each own $3.50, 100000, the
count Of their hoard would be complet-
ed in twenty-four days. All the vast
horde of poor millionaires having about
S15,ooo,000 would get one days attend
ance. Those having less than $14,5OO,-.
600 would be dismissed in six hours.
These figures are the result of a count
made of the unused" money In one of
the vaults under control Of William B,
Ridgely, comptroller of the currency.
The count was finished few days ago,
having been under way twelve working
days. For six years there had been no
count Of the money in the vault, and
1t occurred to Mr.. Ridgely that he ought
to satisfy himself that the s176,OOO.-
600 the books showed to be in the vault
was actually there. The count showed
that there were as many dollars in the
vault us the books said there should
be.
Thirty-eight years ago negro stole a
package containing 1900 sheet, of un-
signed bank notes. He had a high. time
signing the names Of the president and.
cashier Of the bank for which the.

proprlated $4,000 to pay for the spurl-
GUS notes issued by him to innocent
persons but only $125 worth OF the
forged notes ever came; to the treasury

The strange and new types of fishes.

this year, are undoubtedly the result
of the intercrosslng that came about
after the invaders from the lake had
accustomed themselves to the new en-.

to make their way back to the lake,
they settled down to make the best of
their life in the narrow confines of the
rivers and accept the condition of mis-.

best for all concerned.-St. Louis Globe

upon them the faces of their rulers. In

The first coins struck after the for
nation Of the federal union bore the
face of George Washington. Gen.
Washington disapproved of the custom
and it was dropped. 1t has never been
revived.
Portraits of prominent Americans
appear upon postage stamps, Internal
revenue stamps and paper money, but
never on coins. And 1t has been the
custom to use no portraits of living
men even on the currency and the
stamps.
In England as soon as King Edward
succeeded Queen Victoria the queens
face gave way to that of Edward on
all the coins and stamps In the British
empire. The accession of new ruler
in most monarchies means an Instant
change In the design of the coins.

of no portraits on American coins. The

resulted in the formation of poison

to head off any raids on the green bob
