TOO MUCH IN SMALL COINS
Treasury Renders An interesting Le-
gal Tender Limit Opinion IN a
Peculiar Case.

The treasury has just rendered
rule of peculiar interest in pecul-
lar case. The Commercial bank of
st. Augustine, Fla, has a debtor
who is required to pay the bank $50
every month. The man has a grudge
against the bank and makes the pay
ment as disagreeable to the latter as
possible. Instead of drawing a check
for the amount he has been in the
habit Of turning over a double hand
full Of silver coins. Ten dollars is in
halves, $40 in quarters and $40 in
dimes.
The other day Treasurer Nc
Clung received letter from Thomas
X. Cureton, the cashier of the bank,
asking for an opinion as to whether
or not he was compelled to receive
the money in this shape. He went
ed to know whether under the law
the aggregation of coins was legal
tender. The law on this point is as
follows:
"That the present silver coins Of
the United States of smaller denom-
nations than 81 shall hereafter be a
legal tender in all sums not exceed
ing $40 in full payment of all dues,
public and private"
Treasurer McClung replied that
the bank was not compelled to ac-
cept the money as legal tender, his
opinion being as follows:
"The object and purpose of this
provision was to justify a creditor
in refusing to accept a burdensome
and inconvenient quantity of the
smaller silver coins in payment of a
debt. l am, therefore, of the opin-
ion that the true construction Of the
act is that a tender of a sum con-
sisting of the several different de-
nominations of the subsidiary silver
coins must not, to be WITHIN the act,
exceed the sum of $40 in payment
Of any single debt. 1t follows, there
fore, that in my opinion tender of
such as that described in your letter
would not be valid and sufficient in
law"

oLoRlEs OF OUR OWN WORLD.

John Burroughs; Let not care and
humdrum deaden us to the wonders
and mysteries amid which we live,
nor to the splendors and glories. We
need not translate ourselves in mag
nation to some other sphere or state
of being to find the marvellous, the
divine, the transcendent; we need
not postpone our day of wonder and
appreciation to some future time
and condition. The true in
wardness of this gross visible world,
hanging like an apple on the bough
Of the great cosmic tree, and SWELL
ing with all the juices and potencies
of life, transcends anything we have
dreamed of super-terrestrial abodes.

TIE WORK OF PLOT BUILDING
An Experiences Littsrsteur Gives Ad-
vice TO a Young Author on tho
Invention Of Plot Material.

The young author was complain
ing to the experienced litterateur Of
dearth of suitable plot material.
"Well, invent a few" the elder
man advised. "Put of your writing
for a time and devote your attention
to plot building until you have ac-
quired a supply. Now, here is a
suggestion for a plot: A young man
is let down at the end Of a rope to
seemingly bottomless abyss, hereto
fore unexplored. The rope is torn
in two by the sharp edge Of rock
and his companions hear the youth
full explorers cry Of dismay, fol-
lowed by the usual silence. Three
months later the young fellow ap-
pears among his friends, his pockets
bursting with money. Now, what
happened to him after the rope
broke and in what manner did he
acquire his wealth ?"
"Well," the young author ven
tured hesitatingly, 81 should say
when the rope broke, the explorer
fell a considerable distance and
struck the bottom of the abyss upon
his head. The compact caused him
to see various stars and wonderful
planets and he was quick in seizing
upon them before they could disap-
pear. These he brought back with
him, after finding an opening lead
ing to the world, and sold them at a
great price to a number of astrono-
mers. Would thSi not explain mat
ters satisfactorily ?"-Judge's Lii

BIG BEN NEEDS TUNING.

There is dlscord in the bells of
the house Of parliament and it is
protested that this is not in keeping
with the progress of science, In a
Royal institution discussion it has
been stated that taking the nomi-
nal tones only, Big Ben and the
third-quarter bell are perfect oc-
taves, as they should be. The first
quarter bell is 90 vibrations sharp;
the second-quarteE bell eight vibra-
tions sharp and the fourth-quarter
bell is slightly flat, not more than
three vibrations. The humming and
the striking notes in all the bells
are never less than a semi-tone-
sometimes a whole tone-shafP OF
fiat. In the last ten years great i'm
proyement has been made in the
tuning of bells, and it is urged that
the national bells-which could be
tuned for 81 1,2OO-should be the

Mrs. Radcliffe confessed that some
OF the most thrilling incidents in the
Mysteries Of Udolpho" were inspired
by nightmares produced by supping
on pork chops. Tartini, the great vio-
linist, after dining indiscreetly,
dreamed that he had made a bargain
with the devil for his soul. To prove
his powers the evil one seized vio-
lin and played a sonatS. OF exquisite
beauty. Tartini awoke with the mu-
sic ringing in his ears, committed the
music to paper and published it as

INVENTORS HARSH FATE.

A monument was unveiled in the
Place des Etats Unis, Paris, not
long ago, in honor of the American
surgeon and dentist, Horace Wells,
the discoverer of nitrous oxide, or
'1aughing" gas. Although its prop
critics had been made known as early
as the year 1900, Wells was the first
to employ it in dentistry. He made
a visit to Paris, where he communi-
Gated his discovery to the French
medical societies. A dispute arose
as to who might claim the credit of
the discovery of anesthesia, and
Wells, rendered insane by the con-
iiicting claims and by constant ex-
periments upon himself with chlo-
roform, committed suicide in 1848,
at the age Of 33 years.

Too Pleasant TO ha proper.

Reading in bed has long been con-
demned as a harmful indulgence. Now
comes the London Lancet and says
that it is no more harmful to read in
bed than anywhere else if you have
the light placed right and do not hold
the book too close to your eyes. But
reading in bed is such pleasant
thing that it really does not seem as il
it could be right.
