W.. the involuntary work Of =

Wa the Involuntary work of a
Dime Slot Machine Company.
The disappearance of the Scent
piece has for years been matter Of
mild speculation. The New York Sun
says persons are aware that a large
proportion of the coins of this denom-
nation which remained in circulation
when the government stopped issuing
them are peaceably slumbering in
sundry large fat canvas bags in the
vaults of certain electrical manufac-
turing company of Chicago They are
not for sale just yet.
Each of the coins Is an evidence of
petty larceny.
Years ago the company equipped
many telephone pay stations with dime
slot machines. It was supposed that
they could be worked only with dimes.
The 0-cent pieces were becoming rare
and no thought was taken of them.
Hardly six months passed before one
Of the telephone companies discovered
that the collectors were yielding a
harvest Of Scent pieces, Then from
all over the country came similar COM
plants.
Each company forwarded the pieces
to the manufacturing company and
more or less politely asked that cor.
responding. number of dimes or a
check for an equivalent amount be
sent back in exchange.
A council was held at the office Of
the manufacturing company. The cost
of correcting the boxes was compared
with fairly trustworthy information
of the number of Scent pieces in cir
culation. 1t was found that a balance
was in favor of the cents and it was
decided to accept the pieces as dimes
Gradually the inpour of Scent pieces
narrowed down to an intermittent
current The company seemed to have
about all the pieces.
1t is said that If ever the premium
on Scent pieces goes high enough the
coins will be offered to collectors al
prices based upon the original cost tx
the company, plus 6 per cent a year
plus cost of storage, plus cost of guard
ing, plus cost of carrying the funt
upon the books. Long ago the slo
machines that collected them were rel
egated to the scrap heap.

Honest Negro Paid Notes Securing
Freedom 90 Years After War.
Peter Morton, or "Old Pete" a
colored man and a quaint character
of antebellum days, died at his home
in Geneva court recently, the Cincin-
natl Enquirer says, He did not know
his exact age, which was about 80
years, and there is probably no one
now living who does. When asked
about 1t he would say that he was "a
right smart sized boy the year the
stars fell and when Jenny Lind came
down the Ohio River"
"Old Pete" since the close OF the
Civil War, has at different times been
a family servant and man-of-all-work
in many prominent families on the
hills. and in Avondale, and varied his
employment occasionally by doing
porter work in downtown stores. 1t
is related Of him, and the story was
confirmed by himself, that before the
Civil War he was the property OF a
Kentucky gambler, who went broke
and "Pete" with all other chattels pos
sessed by the gambler, had to be sold
to satisfy his creditors.
The officers of bank in Maysville,
XIV. who had taken liking to the
colored man on account Of his genial
good nature and strict honesty, offered
tn Inv his freedom for him II he
would execute his personal note IN
their favor and make his payments
unon II. according as he was able, until
thew were repaid. This he agreed to,
b,,t with the close of the Civil War
and the scattering Of his friends far
and wide, Pete fell into hard lines
from lack of a permanent home and
steady employment, but he never for
cot his financial obligations to his
banker benefactors and he continued
making his payments to them for
twenty years after the close OF the
war until the debt was finally paid
often he was told that the claim was
o,,tlawed and he could not be legally
forced to pay 1t, but he invariably re
nlied that his benefactors had trusted
him and no matter how long it tool
he would pay them back to the lasi
can't

representation in the lower house,
is practically certainty in the pres
ent congress. Representative Crum-
packer, Republican, Of Indiana,
chairman of the house census COM
mittee, declared today his commit
tee will present a bill based on the
new census and that preliminary
work in determining the number OF
representatives on the new popula-
lion total has begun. Crumpacker

leader, and II is believed the bill
will show Democratic influences.
One plan of reapportionment would
