ployee who makes the new bills up
in packages of 100 each said that
hundred bills weighed four and one
half ounces. That would make one
bill weigh forty-five thousandths of
an ounce, and between six and seven
would balance the gold piece.
Figures on the lifting proposition
were furnished from the department
where the money is weighed in bags

for gold coin, $4,000 weighs eighteen
and a half pounds. five hundred
silver dollars weigh thirty-fve and
half pounds, and 5000 in half

pounds. Taking 200 pounds as a
good lift for an average man. these

THE WEIGHT OF MONEY

81 wish l had all the money
could lift" How many of the
thousands who make this get-rich
quick wish have any idea of the
amount they would have if the wish
should be granted. Few name the
denomination of the money on
which they desire to test their
strength, perhaps believing that
their lifting powers would make
them wealthy no matter what kind
of money they lifted.
If they were asked how much
they could lift in silver or small
bills the majority probably would
name some fabulous sum which in
Vestigation would show several men
could not bulge. In gold or in
paper money of large denominations
the ordinary Individual would be
able to lift a fair sized fortune, but
to win million by lifting it in any
thing less thant wenty dollar bills
would need the strength of a veri-
table Sandow.
An official of the subtreasury who
is interested in odd satisfies in his
department was asked how much
money the average man could lift in
the various denominations of gold,
silver and paper.
WELL" he replied. "a man could
make money on that proposition
if he could get hold of paper money
Of large denominations, but on the
> smaller bills, silver and gold he
would not be millionaire by any
means.
THE weight of money is very
deceptive. For instance, a young
man, a friend Of mine, came in to
see me one day with his fiancee. I
was showing them through my de-
partment and asked my friend if he
thought the young woman was
worth her weight in gold. He did
think 80, most emphatically, and
after ascertaining that her weight
was 1O7 pounds we figured that she
would be worth in gold coin exactly
S28,647. Her fiancee thought
that would be pretty cheap. "
Perhaps more people are de-
ceived on the weight of paper money
than on the metals. Now, how
many one dollar bills do you think
would be necessary to weigh as
much as five dollar gold piece2"
Fifty was ventured as guess,
and the statistician laughed.
II have had guesses on that all
the way from so to $780," he said,
"and some of them from men who
have handled money for years. AS
a matter of fact, with a five dollar
gold piece in one scale you would
have to put about six and a half
bills in the other to balance it"
He produced figures to prove that
a five dollar piece weighed two
hundred and niety-six- thousandths
of an ounce avoirdupos. An EN-.

NO PLCEA FOR
THEM TO co
Portuguese Denied Admission to
Country and No Other Place
viii Have Them.

Five Portuguese from the Island of
Madeira are just now encumbering the
hands of the territorial board of immi
grafton. They are rejected immigrants
and practically are people without
country. Hawaii does not want them;
Uncle Sam does not want them on the
mainland; Canada has refused to allow
them to step on Canadian soil The
territorial government wants Ia get
them back to their native shores and
land them within few miles of their
former homes in Funchal. but the Por
tuguese governor Of the island NAV saw
nay. The immigrants started from
funchal, sailed across the Atlantic in
the British steamship Swanley. the i'm
migrant ship, rounded the Strait of
Magellan and crossed the Pacific to Ha
wall. The board believes it has solved
the problem of getting them back to
tunchal. That route is via japan. Chi
ma, Ceylon, Suez and the Strait of Glib
raltar. When they arrive at Funehal
the stony-hearted governor NAV relent
and permit them to come ashore.
The woman in the party is afflicted
with favus, a disease which attacks the
scalp. The territorial board agent. A.
j. Campbell, wanted to send them back
ashore at Funehal but the governor of
the island said if they came ashore the
whole party would have to follow. Mr.
Campbell had only one solution of that
conundrum. He brought the family
along and now they have to be sent
back.
Russians on the Way.
Chairman Ivers of the board of immi-
grafton has received a cablegram from
Yokohama that twelve Russian families
numbering seventy-three persons have
been sent on the Tenyo Maru. Three
hundred and twelve Russians will ar
rive today on the Mongolia. Two hun
dred and fifty were left behind when the
Tenyo Maru sailed, because of lack of
| accommodations.
Mr.. Ivers states that the accounts of
the Portuguese immigrant expenditures
are now all in the hands of the terri.
torial auditor, although Mr.. Campbell
has not yet made his report to the
board.
