New York.-The biggest store of
pure silver in the United States lies
under the pavement in Spruce street.
Its repository is the vault, reaching
out under the street, of company
which so dominates the world silver
market that it is virtually a clearing
house for the metal.
Bars and ingOts of the treasure are
constantly coming into the vault from
the mines of the world. and as con-
stantly being shipped away to mints
and jewelry manufactures in the
United States and Europe.
Insurance Rate Low.
The business of getting the pure
silver in and out of the vault is highly
organized. Armored cars and Gagged
wagons bring it in and carry it away.

Detective Story
A colored man walked into pawn
shop with $3.50 camera. The pawn
broker was suspicious and questioned
the man regarding where he got such
an expensive instrument. The colored
gentleman thereupon departed hastily,
not even troubling to take the camera,
and not getting ticket for it, either.
/ The pawnbroker turned the camera
lover TO police, who found roll of
! film in it. This they had developed
land prints made from it. The pic
lstures were scenes aboard a yacht

imam owns this camera" One snap
