Government Holds Big Interest

Washington, Stacked in one OF
corners of theU. S., treasury. 5000
600 in gold coin is going begging.
The government cannot give it
away, yet none OF the rightiul
owners can be induced to take it,
it represents unclaimed interest on
the public debt. somewhere in
hooks and crannies and out-oi-the-
way places are the governments S
interest checks for the money,
which never have heen cashcd.
Some OF them never will be pre-
scented, others may be brought
around in time and some are being
held by cautious investors,
From time 10 time the treasury
attempts to call in the checks
and the vagaries OF human nature
are shown. One citizen has more
than 100000 waiting for him and
holds the checks for it. He was
recently invited to cash in, and
made a trip toWashiugton to tell
treasury officials the checks were
his property; he could cash them
when he pleased or burn them up
il he wished. 1.-The does the latter
his money will be held in the
vaults until congress, perhaps
might dispose OF il. The treasury
can do nothing but keep il.
