MUTILATIoN OF COINS
A PENITENTIARY OFFENSE

Some wag is making a bid for a
federal prison berth by mutilating Buff
falo nickels, according to Thomas j.
Callaghan, United States secret SER
vice agent. Salt Lake is flooded with
Buffalo niekels that have been changed
to make the Indian head on the reverse
side resemble the head of a Hebrew.
BY clever bit of engraving ping
hat has been placed upon the head of
the red man and a beard fitted TO his
chin. The result is startling. Mr.. Cal
laghan promises that it will be even
more so when the identity of the en-
graver is discovered.
Mutilation of United States coins is
punishable by fine of not more than
$4,000 or imprisonment of not more
than five years, or by both. According
to Mr.. Callaghan, the manufacture of
the nickel, as it is known, from the
Buffalo nickel by working the change
in the Indian head constitutes a mutt
lation that is punishable under the law.
In this opinion, United States District
Attorney w. W. Ray yesterday con
CURED when consulted by Mr.. Gala
CHAN with reference to the freak
nickels
Tn addition to his collection of nick
els, Mr.. Callaghan has on hand numer-
Gus other coins that have been mutt
lated in one way or another. The most
usual liberty taken with Uncle Sam 5
coin is that of forming them into
bracelets and necklaces by soldering
joining links in them. In this form of
mutilation the Buffalo nickel again
proves most popular. Many of the or
naments fashioned from them are gold
plated and the workmanship on them
is expert-Herald-R Republican.

FIRE is SUPPOSED TO HAVE
ORIGINATED FROM SPARKS
OF A PASSING TRAIN,

The depot at Spring Hll Caught
d.a at about 1880 in the afternoon
and burned down Mr. Orman the
agent, had gone to his residence for
a-not. on his return he found the
station ablazo and before assistance
aord he summoned, the building was
entirely consumed by the flames.
The fire is supposed to have orig
mated from a passing train as it
started in the north end of the build
ing, and there was no fire whatever
in that part Of the house,
The loss is estimated to be about
$1,000. It is understood that there
were several trunks of sample shoes
and clothing in the baggage room
that were a total loss.
Plans are being made to start on
another building at once, and until
it is constructed, box cars will be
used for a station.

IN MAuRY COUNTY.

Aside from the practical eimlna'
ton of Patterson the most gratifying
feature of the election last Saturday
was the small vote received in Maufy
county by Patterson. His vote mere
was the smallest that he has ever
received. It was much less than that
cast in his June bug primary When
it was a one sided affair and none
of the Patterson opposition voted.
II was even less than that cast IN
tbe Patterson senatorial primary oil
1912. another one sided affair 1t
means that so far as Maury county
is concerned Patterson is now an"
will ever be an outlaw from the
Dolitical fayors of its people.
This should not be surprising
Patterson has done nothing to gam
the favors of the people OF Maury
county. His open approval OF the
murder of the county's most dis
tinguished and best beloved son TOT
ever forfeited the good Will OF a
majority of Maury countlans NO
road nor route that he may follow
now can restore him to the favor OF
This people. 1t is therefore exceed
ingly pleasing to The Herald, which
has consistently and earnestly taught
NJ. R. Patterson over since his un
fortunate and ever to be regretted
entry into the politics of this state
to know that it's confidence IN the
Old Guard of Maury county has mol
been misplaced No matter Wha'
other former foes Of the ex-governor
NAV do in other sections, one thlng
is sure in Maury county, his political
crimes are not to be forgiven, not al
least until he has proven his faith
by his works.
