Oiho Wilson, aoe nanny SERN Y A Million Dollars Daily Destroyed ee “Every working day in the year, Uncle Sam destroys a million dollars : “deliberately tears up and grinds to pulp one million doifars’ worth of paper mcney— genuine bank notes and greenbacks,” writes Clifford Howard in the September Ladies’ Home Journal. “A million dollars in one, two, five, ten. twenty, fitty, one-hun- dred, and one-thousand dollar notes are daily punched full of holes, cut into halves and thrown into a machine that rapidly reduces them to a mass of mushy substance. “Whenever a piece uf paper money becomes soiled or torn 1$ may be pre- sented to the United States Treasury and redeemed, Sconer or later every note that circulates among the people b2comcs unfit, for further service, for it 43 bound to become dircy o° mutilated by constant handling, and the United States Government stands reaay to give the holder of such a note a new note in exchange for it; or, in other words, the Government will redeem it. “The majority of the clerks em— ployed in this important department of the Government are women, many of whom are the mest expert money counters ard counterfeit detectors in the world. In fact, only experts can properly perform the work that is re— quired ; tor rot only must the soiled and mutilated money be accurately and rapidly counted, but all counterfeit notes must be detected and thrown out. When we consider that some counter- feiters can’ so cleverly imitate genuine “money that their spurious notes will circulate throught the country without detecticn, and are not discovered until Write plainly } are often so worn that the imprint on them can searcely be deviphered.. It | not infrequently happens that these bad notes are detected simply by the feel ot them, which, in some cases, is really the only way of discovering the fraud ; for whle a counterfeiter may occasionally succeed in 80 perfectly imita‘ing the design of a note as to mislead even an expert, it is next to impossible for him to counterfeit the paper used by the Government.” ee She Married the Man of Her Choice in Spite of Her Family. A Raleigh (N. C.) special to the Washington Post says: The most sensational affair in the history of North Carolina society oc- curred today, when Miss Bessie Boy- lan Tucker, the wealthiest young woman in Raleigh, left her home and forfeited all claims upon her share of her father’s estate by macrying Mr. Edward Fellowes, a young Eaglish- man. Fellowes bas lived here for the past three years, and has been a leader of society in the capital city. "Ir. W. R. Tucker, brother of the bride, ranks igh among the bankers and financi2rs of the city, and is a stockholder in the A.ardN, C, cailroad, Seaboard Air Line and cther railroads, Nearly a year ago Mr. Fellowes was denied the privilege of calling at the Tucker on. The young lady spent the days and nights since Friday with her sister, Mrs. James Boylan. Miss Tucker wired Mr. Fellowes, in New York, immediately upon his return from Europe that day, which gave gossips something to talk about. When it became known that the ‘Lucker family had made them- selves conspicuous by their absence at the ceremony, society was divided, with the family sympathizers in the minor- ity. Immediately after the ceremony the bride and groom left for Atlanta. Mr. Fellowes has been connected witn the cotton buyers, Char'es E, Johnson and E. H, Lee, here, for three years. He goes to Albany, Ga., to represent a big Liverpool company on the cotton ex- change. Miss Tucker is a laughter of the late R.S. Tucker and a_ sister-in— law of John H. Winder. mansion. —— — q @lhe Journal tells that a farmer was in Winston one day last with a load ot melons and found them dull sale. Late in the afternvon he announced that, rather thaa haul them back home, he woula sell the melons at a penny Thereupou the populace tell over each other in the week euch. mad rush to geta melon for a penny. The load was soon sold and the tarmer pocketed the proceeds and departed. Then came a revelation, The melons, instead of being “prime choice,” as was thought, proved to be a green and knotty lot thit had heen picked over end rejected by other buyers. - Score one for the tarmer! He has his in- nings sometimes. . Saal — A New Study of American Fash- —1enable Life. Julien Gordon (Mrs. Van Renssel- ger Cruger) has used for her iast novel a study of New York, Newport and Boston life, which promises to be read with wide interest by all who are in- terested in American fashonable life. No one knows the society of these three centres of fashion better than M:s. Cruger, From her girlhood up she has had every opportunity to ob- serve, and we have had no A merican woman of more bniliant powers, not only of reading the human heart, but of putting her impressions in delightful fashion. “A charmingly fresh Massachusetts girl is sacrificed in her youth to the ambition of a “iich marriage.” De- prived of love, she throws herself into the race for social leadership, and we tollov’ tor twenty years, with ever- increasing interest, the career of this ab’e and beautiful woman:as she cap- tures outpcst after outpost, failing in Boston only to change her base of | operations to England, and then at- at New York, and ao on to Newport, and finally beholds the capitulation of Bostonatself. The first chapters open in the September Cusmopolitan. cence TA, OS ee yearn tenets Convicts on the Roads. seen meme North Carolina is making a success of the experiment of working convicts on the public roads, Thus far it hag nct-been attended by complaints from any quarter. ‘The convicts are said to be more easily managed than ihey were while locked in close, narrow calls,’and huddled in a mass that gen~- erated disease end sickness. Free labor has found no objection to this utilization of convict labor in North Waroliua for tree labor there, as in every other part of the country, has an aversion to working on the public roads despite statutory requirements and the attached penalties. Missouri and other Western States which are always wrestling with the problem of convict labor and the improvement of their system of public roads should learn a lesson from the North Carolina ex- periment. Less than one half of the convicts in the Missouri penitentiary are afforded employment, chiefly be- cause of the objection of tree labor, and this proposition probably — holds true i the penal institutions of other States of the West. This enforced idleness is not only a burden upon the tax payers ; but it-also aggravates the problem of prison management, It the convicts were put to work on the highways we should soon have an im- proved system of public roads, and the agricultural interests of the State would be especiatly benefitted.—St. Louis Republic. Like the Dark Days of ’68. It is a tact that the Messenger’s Raleigh bureau report in yesteruay’s issue reads as if our correspondent had gone to the old files uf the Sentinel — time, 1868-9 and 1870—and had torn oui aleaf. It is a repetition of the dark days of reconstruction, when the plunderers abounced like Egyptian cood stealing,” as that northern. rog Je wrete of South Carolina somewhere about 1870. ‘The squandering of the people’s money by their robbers and betrayers will put honest men to thinking. If the taxpayers do not gt together in 1898, and send trustworthy, taithful, caprble men to the legislature end to the congress then they vuzht to suffer, for is will be righteous retribu- tion for personal neglect and politica] sins.
