STOLEN NOTES ON
BANKS IN WEST
Mail Car Robbers Believed
to Have Overlooked
a Million.

WASHINGTON, D. c.. Oct. o.
Twelve consignments OF bank notes
and Federal reserve funds were snip
ped on the B. & o. train robbed at
Central, ". Va. BY registered parcels
post from the treasury department TO
banks in the west and middle west.
The banks to which this money was
shipped follow:
The First National Eank. Eoynton.
Okla; First National Bank, Bradshaw,
Seb.; First National, Brigham City,
Utah; First National. Bristow, Neb.;
First National, righton, COL; Farm
ers' National, Berkley. Okla; First
National, Lyons. Kas.; Harney Coun'
~ National. Burns, Ore; Jewell Coun'
Ity National, Burr Oak, Kas., and Sill
yer Bow National. Butte City. Col.
Officials at the treasury department
refused TO disclose the exact amount
Of currency on the riaed mail car,
but II has been learned from other
sources that there was at least 1900.
900 in currency on the car in packages
Of about $1,000 each, $1,000 being the
maximum amount accepted under the
rules OF the postal department for
shipment In single package.
II Is the belief here that the robbers
took about s500.0o0 OF this amount
either overlooking the remaining ST.
100000 or deliberately leaving 1t be,
cause the notes were Of such large
denominations as to make Is difficult
OF disposal without arousing suspi
pion. The mony stolen is in national
bank notes. The money left Is Fed
eral reserve funds.
According TO the statements OF gov
eminent officials here the stolen bank
notes are legal tender without the sig
natures OF the officials OF the banks
to which they are consigned, aud a
considerable number OF such unsigned
notes are actually in circulation due
to the neglectio of bank officials in afftx
ing their signatures. The only way
in which the stolen notes can be iden'
tifed Is by their serial numbers.

PRIVATE SCHOOLS.

PRIVATE SCHOOLS.
One Of the prosaloon arguments in
high license states is that the liquor
traffic helps maintain the public
schools. A Nebraskan newspaper fit
tingly replies thus: Yes, that is true,
but 1t does more than that. 1t main
tains a school system Of its own.
While the little boys are being gath
cred into the public schools where
they are trained to read, to write and
to think, the young men are being
gathered into the private schools of
the liquor traffic, the saloons, where
they are trained to swear, to tell lewd
stories and to drink.
"The public school takes the boy,
builds up his intellect and trends him
towards high character and good
habits. The private school of the
liquor traffic, the saloon, takes that
boy when he is little older, de-
bauches his intellect and trends him
toward low character and bad habits"
