BOGUS CERTIFICATES.

Notices have been received from
Secret Service headquarters to be
on the look out for counterfeit 81
silver certificates. The bogus paper
is made to resemble the issue of
1899. The counterfeit certificates,
the secret service men say, are
easily detected by a white patch
over the nose of General Grant,
whose likeness appears on them.
1t is further pointed out by the
secret service men that the word
United is misspelled and appears
on the certificate as "Usisted.'
