Opium. lottery. whiskey. leprosy, in.
dolence. and inability to rise to the de
mants of modlern civilization. seem to
be working out the same results with
the native Hawaiian as with the Ameri

Captain (Cook found a little over a eon

her favorite prose writers. and Keat sat
goes with Shakespeare in poetry, whil: the:
her favorite composers are (iounod and a sn
Verdi. That "Marine the EpicureanC" "ai
should be her favorite book is rather a: so
odd thing to some warm admirer of Mr
Pater. who doesn't share Miss Repplier' rel
general romantic and sanguinary taste: I rca
in literature. The exquisite civilizatio:l ra
of "Marius" seems very far away from the
the silly barbarism of "Ivanhoe." But m,
whether it is she who is inconsistent ot dir
whether they are, each party probably' opt
would not leave it to the other to de- a ]
cide. Of course Miss Repplier's heroine tait
in real life is Mary Stuart, and the hi:- ove
toric event at which she would most like ie
to have been ptr.cstnt was the battle of ago

so much ahead.
Much of the money which comes in f, r
redemption has been damnaged In rail
road wrecks. When a car is burne-l in a
railroad wreck no attempt is made by:
the express company to remove that,
money from the safe. The safe is sent
direct to the treasury department and
opened there. The :nmney is usually in
a pretty Itadly charred condition. It i:
takein out. and the treasury experts go
over it and identify as mulllch iof it a. -'an
be recognized. Two year.rs ;a a pl:.:

A farvotrite hiding plame fir nituly with
men wiho have no f::ith in banks is in
their cellars. A Philatlellhia mtan sent
it2u which he hadl huried in a tin box
tnder his cellar floor. When he tick tip
the box he found tile money mildewed
and rotten. The package as it camnt
into Mrs. Brown's hands looked like a
bunch of tobacco leaves. It was almost
impossible to distinguish the character
of the notes with the naked eye. Mrs.
Brown was plickig alpart thile pieces it
by bit and arranging them on sli' s of
brown plaper cut to the size of a dollar
bill. She said that she expected to ide-l.
tify the whole of it.
One iman sent ill some time ago forty
two dollars whichll had elen taken fro;,:
the stomach of a ;goat. The goat was t+.,t
worth forty-two dollars. so he was s;uer:
1iced The identification of ti.is monllle
wais not a very nice task. but it was coua
Iar'tively an easy on'. WheI'n .Mr:.
Brownl droppedll the sticky mass into a
imsin of water the bills ciane apart anad
were very easily identified. This is not
the only goat case which has come to the
redemption division, and it has happened
that even cows and pigs have been sacri
ficed to recover money which they had
swallowed. There is one case on record
where a baby swallowed some bank
notes. and an emetic savedl the mnoney
and possibly the baby. Babits do not
often swallow an entire bill. but many
aftfdavits are received accomnpaning por
tions of bills which say that the missing,
portions were swallowed by babies and
"therefore wholly destroyed."
Usunaly when mutilated money is sent
m for redemption the owner has a close
if not perfect idea of the amount which
is represented, but one old German in
the west sent in some years ago what he
claimed to be the remains of .:000, awl
after a long,. long investigation Mrs.
Brown fully identified $7,100 in the
package. A secret service agent was
sent out to investigate the case, but he
could discover notlhing that would throw
light upat the mystery, and so the mis
take was charged up to the old man's
stupidity. and the department sent $7.100
to him.
The redemption division receives very
frequently pieces torn from aills, atc
companied by affidavits saying that the
remainder of the notaes has been destroy
ed by mice. But the exlperts of the
treasury department can tell insa min-te
whether a piece has been torn off or eat nt
ofl. and these petty frauds are never suc
cessfuL
Treasurer Nebeker has a five dollar
bill in his office made of sixteen pieces
cut from five dollar notes matched so
aicely that the ordinary eye would not
detect the fraud. This composite note
was sent in by a bank clerk in New
York. The treasury experts detected
the fraud inmmediately, and of course the
bogus note was not redeemed.-Wash

A Cure for SMake Iite.
Another treatment for snake bite is
added to the long list of remedies that
have come fron many countries. It is
said that the nl:t ives of Australia have
comparatively little fear of snake bites.
They keep always at hand a piece of
string made of human hair. The string
is tied tightly three or four inches above
the bite, a small circle an eighth of an
inch deep is cut around the two fang
pnurtues with a knife, and the largest
vein below the bite is slit to allow the
