TO WASH PAPER MONEY.
Laundry May Be Established I'm Cir
cfnnati for Purpose.

Laundry May BE Established I'm Gin
cinnati for Purpose.
Cincinnati is likely to have a new
laundry. Uncle Sam is to be the pro-
prietor and while it Is to be for the
benefit of the public the populace will
not be allowed to wash it's dirty linen
there, the Enquirer of that city says.
If it is secured here 1t will be unique
enterprise and be the first of its kind
to be regularly established in the
United States and probably the first
of the kind in the world In fact, the
laundering will be done free to the
general public.
States Treasurer G. A. Bosworth are
successful it will be established In the
subtreasury. His chief deputy, r. B..
Barrett, has just returned from a trip
through the east and while in Wash
ington he paid visit to the treasury
new process whereby it is intended to
wash clean all dirty bills that are still
capable of being placed In circulation.
Deputy Barrett states that when he
was there he was asked for a dirty
bill and he handed a fye-spot taken
from the money he had brought from
Cincinnati. 1t was returned to him
In an altered condition. One half of
the bill as bright as when 1t first came
from the printing presses and the 9TH
err half retained a reminder of this
city. 1t was explained that the de-
partment is experimenting and that
the prospect is that in the very near
future instead of destroying and ma
carating all bills unfit for circulation
and replacing them with new the old
will be washed antiseptically clean
and again placed in circulation. Chief
Deputy Barrett secured promise that
as soon as 1t Is found to answer the
purposes claimed for 1t laundry OF
this character will be established here.
1t is estimated that by this means
hundreds of thousands of dollars will
be saved to the government annually.
The authorities have for the past sew
eral years endeavored to place In cir
culation only clean money. and as soon
as 1t becomes soiled 1t Is retired and
replaced by new. Last year there was
forwarded from this city alone $24.-
100000 in unfit currency to Washing
ton. which was macerated and destroy
ed. 1t costs the government 20 cents
per $1,000 to ship this unclean stuff to
headquarters and then there is the ad-
ditional cost of destroying It,
1t Is the intention of the government
to assert the currency gathered up by
banks into three classes-one that is
but slightly soiled and can be at once
turned back into circulation; a second
that is considered unfit and the third
that has become so worn and filthy
that II would be menace to the pub
lie. The latter class is to be destroyed,
as Is done at present. while the Sec
ond class is to be restored to its pris-
tine appearance

Death came to four young persons
through their own contributory negli-
gence. according to the jury in the

of an accident which occurred the night
of May %. 1909, when gasoline

way in the Consolidated Power Com
panys dam in that city. The party
consisted of eight young people. They
started up the river. and landed at
Long Island. where they had a marsh
mallow roast, and started for home at
about 10 o'clock The night was very
dark and windy, and they could not
see the shore or landing place. The
boat was caught by the swift current
in the river near the dam, and before
they realized it they were carried
through the sluice way into the river
below. a distance of twenty feet, where
the boat was dashed upon the rocks.
The cries of the young people for help
were heard all over the city, aud inn
mediately the fire alarm was sounded
and boats were sent out with parties
of rescuers, but on account of the rocks
and the darkness it seemed impossible
to get to them in time. The survivors
We're finally reached ar about midnight,
nearly an hour after the first cries
were heard. and four of them were
found clinging to the rocks; the others
were swept down the river Their bod
les We're not recovered until several
days later. Misses Ruth Bogoger, May
Fors, Bessie Anderson, and Ralph An
derson lost their lives. Miss Bogoger
was instantly killed by striking the
rocks. Ralph Anderson was an expert
swimmer and had landed to place of
safety when he learned that his sister
was missing He plunged back into
the river to find her and lost his own
life

BOARD OF TRADE EXCURSIONS,
An Invitation to Visit Belfast and See the
Attractive Displays of Holiday Goods.

An Invitation to Visit Belfast and See the
Attractive Displays of Holiday Goods.
After The Journal went to press last week
the committee on transportation and advertis-
ing of the Belfast Board of Trade formulated
plans for bringing holiday shoppers to Belfast.
The first excursion was set for December 18th,
by steamers Anna Belle and Golden Rod, from
Brooksville, Castine and Islesboro, with free
passage to all who wished to come, the boats to
remain an hour later than usual for the benefit
of the shoppers. Arrangements have also been
made with the Maine Central for a round trip
from stations on the branch at one and one
third fare. The railroad excursions are to be
on Thursday and the boat excursions Wednes-
day, but if stormy they will be postponed until
the next fair day.
There are no obligations incurred by those
who come on these excursions, no coupons. no
stipulations as to where you shall trade. You
are simply invited to come to Belfast and look
over what our merchants have to offer and
you will find them ready to show their goods
whether you buy or not The following mer-
chants finance this proposition:
