NEW YORK FLOODED
WITH SPURIOUS COIN

New York, May a.-whether a new
band of counterfeiters, with a large plant.
has begun operating in New York city.
or number Of independent gangs are
at work. Is a question local secret-service
sleuths are trying to answer. The ques-
ton is raised by a flood of spurious
twenty-fve-cent pieces and half dollars
which has descended on the city in the
last few weeks. No section is free from
the counterfeits, but the greater number
are reported from the upper West Side
and the lower East Side. A small amount
of counterfeit coin Is always in circula-
tion in this city. and the local force of
secret-service men receive almost daily
specimens Of 'the queer" Lately it has
been coming In quantities. Much Of the
coin turned in has come from such places
as the post-ofiice-about the last place
next to the sub-treasury where q counter
feiter would try to unload.

secret-service offices is Of good workman

literally plated. 1t is so good In ap-
pearance that street-car conductors, al

service men are willing to talk, no known
counterfeiters are at large IN or near
New York. The more skilful operators
and bands are constantly under surveil-
lance. when not in prison, % the sleuths
are going on the theory that they have
new hands to cope with.
An odd feature of the case is that this

times most favored by them are the

Congress of Mothers

In Lancaster. Pa. will take place the
annual convention of the Pennsylvania
Congress of Mothers and Parent Teach
ers' Association, during October %, %
and 80.
The object of this Congress is to hasten
the gradual merging of the school and
home interests and TO prevent the fright
full waste of young life and morals. which
makes necessary the juvenile courts, re-
form schools, refugees and a large per-
centage of the cases in hospitals and
asylums.
Every important question of child well
fare is to be dlscussed-every interest out
side the home, the moral influence of en-
vironment, children's habits, amusements,
characteristics, etc,-in short, all the fac
tors which will produce sterling future
citizens are of vital Importance
Child labor, child hygiene, home econo-
mics legislation affecting women and
children, kindergartens and good roads
are some considerations.
You may see from this how far reach
ing and deserving are the ideals of this
congress. and should any women's club
desire TO be affiliated in the noble work
the fee is comparatively small. Mrs,
George x. Johnson, of Langhorne. Pa,
is president.
