He unlimbered the Morse key within

and skill he communicated to his
friend a graphic account of transpiriEg

editor of the paper had the story. 1t
was a distinct beat for the resource
full Ia the career of a mar who was
later to become a national figure.
John E. Wilkie, famous as the head
of the secret service, was the reporter.

secret service. discussed his curious
collection of paintings and advertise
ments. OF which the candy box Is the
o unique, he recalled the history OF
Big Hand" Gilbert. It was due to this
counrerfeiter's work that the custom
OF confiscating paintings OF money was
established.
Gilbert was o~stensibly a German
farmer, living over on the Jersey side.
He made bi-weekly trips to New York
city, and on every trip stopped at a
little bar where. above the long rows
OF bottles. hung a painting OF a 81
bill. Whenever Gilbert, WHO at that
line really was a farmer. stopped for
his drink b painting. with every line
OF bill accurately followed, stared
him in the face.
That was In 1882. Two years ate
Gilbert whose hands were SO large
and apparently clumsy that they won
him the nickname OF the man with the
big hands. recalled that when a boy In
Germany he had been proficient with
a pen and that a great future as an
etcher had been predicted for him.
So one night. after gazing for an
hour at the bill, Gilbert went to his lit
tie farm across the river and told his
wife, a hard working woman, that he
had conceived the idea OF an invention
which would make them rich. He
said that he wished to keep the nature
OF his device a secret and refused
even to tell his wife. There, after
nightfall, he labored for months be-
fore he produced his first bill-a Ham
ilton $40 certificate.
His work was SO perfect and his
hands 80 large and clumsy in appear
ance that no one ever suspected him,
n while he went about New York.

there at different places, he was float

twenties and fft1es.
There was absolutely no clew to fix
the identity of the maker. The treas-
ury agents were at a standstill, n
then Gilbert, having progressed in his
hidden occupation, 800 bills began to
make their appearance, and three OF
these-two Farragut heads and a In
coin head-fell into the hands of he

and caught at the treasury depart

The unintentional application OF a
test. which we would urge everybody
to use, caused Gilbert's undoing," said
Captain Moran in speaking of the
case.
No matter how carefully a counter
felt bill Is made, whether engraved or
etched, certain portions of it will blu
when dampened. This Is especially
true in regard to the numbers on oun
terfeit bills. The government bills
from the bureau of engraving and
printing do not blur.
There have been other instances
of pen etched work. But Gilbert was
a genius at it. No pen note man ever

SAN DIEGO. Cal. Feb. lS.-Wtth the
assistance and cooperation OF the cont
manding officer of the First Division OF
the Pacific fleet and the officers OF the
armored Pacific cruiser Pennsylvania
in particular. I was able yesterday to
demonstrate one OF the most important
things involving the usefulness OF the

water and returned to Aviation Head
quarters on North Island. This feat
Was undertaken in order TO further the
interest OF thc Navy Department In the
adaptabiliiy Of The aeroplane to navy
uses. and In the opinion OF the officers
who Witnessed 1t. 1t was successful.
In making the test | used an expert

exception that ] had placed the pro-

experiment. as my best water flights
have been made IN a standard Curtiss
machine with the use OF the water iioats
instead OF tht wheels used on the land
flights.

day was not wei. adapted to the work. In
other words. the fixing OF the propeller

fered with his vision and made 1t diffi-

was hoisted aboard by a boat crane
without difficulty. ! remained board d
few minutes and was then dropped

took Hight from the water back tc

There was no trouble experienced n
