Gamblers Su perstitious.

Baltimore banks are full of mutilated currency i'll the shape of two dollar notes. Technically il is 8u offenSe against the law to mHtiiate a piece of money, but possibly fourth of the two dollar notes in local banks have been clipped or torn. anywhere from { 10 Io cents worth being removed from \ corner
 ..It's superstition. said Fayette street bank clerk. "A gambler will re- fuse a two dollar note at game unless fl has been clipped. He calls t she note. and the minute one falls on the card table there is a howl Of protest The superstition probably arose from the serious fact that a two dollar nots Is so apt 10 be given by mistake for 6 dollar note or taken ny mistake for 2 i've dollar note.
 'tTo make certain some one at some time started the practice of clipping the corner of the shenote. so that in Q roll of bills il could be readily detected without necessarily noting the figure I believe the time will come when the two dollar note will be retired or will be issued only ill one color, different from all other colors of paper moncy.F -Balfimore News
