MARKING OF MONEY.

It Is Dane Witn m Pf n and Sat fVttk a Pea, mm Sappoaed. "How ls money marked?" repeated a headquarters detective to a reporter's query. "Well, it is not marked in the manner that the public thinks it i3. "The average person no doubt believes that money is marked by private marks placed on the bills vith pen and ink. Perhaps some employers thus mark the bills they place in the cash drawer which is being robbed by a dis honest clerk. Of course 'marked mon ey of this kind Is good evidence in court on the trial of a man upon whom it has been found, but a check mark in ink, nnless very expertly put on. might, with the aid of a good lawyer for the accused, be shown to have been perhaps accidental, and thus woulr? the ever sought reasonable doubt of the accused's participation in the rob bery be raised. "There are several different ways of marking money by police experts to the end that they may establish its positive identity of having previously been in, their hands before the thief extracted it. The way I personally em ploy, and which is perhaps the safest to secure certainty and conviction, is the pin prick method.' "Let us take the familiar silver certificate "of the five dollar denomination for an illustration; one that has been somewhat worn is better than a new note from the treasury. In the center is the head of an Indian chief in full regalia of feathers and trappings, presenting a full face view. We now take this pin and make two punctures right through the bill and directly through the pupils, of the eyes so. I hand you the bill, and, even though you saw me make the punctures, they are not visible at a casual and even critical glance. I now raise it to the light, and you can see the two tiny holes made by the pin point as distinctly as windows in a building. I then apply the pin point very nently at the twist in the neck of the large figure 5 at the two upper extreme ends of the note. You will observe that these diminutive twists do not appear in the necks of the two figures of 5 which are in both ends at the bottom of the note. I then pierce the note at the extreme ends of the scrolls on eltlier side of the word "five,' which may be seen Jn the direct center of the note at its IoT3r edge. "The marking of the note is now complete. It is exhibited to one or two persons In the secret for the purposes of preliminary examination and identification, and then placed in the money ''drawer, perhaps with several others of the same denomination, all exactly marked alike with the greatest care. The thief may be on the lookout for marked bills, usually ink marks, but he is a slick one who will get on to the Invisible but surely present pin pricks. You se, this class of thieving does not admit of a crucial examination of the money before taking; it fs usually dons very quickly by palming the bills, placing them in some preliminary place of safety, to be later removed. Then we count on detection with the bills on the person before the thief has a chance to exchange or to spend them. "And the pin pricks remain? Indeed they do. The money is afterward care fully placed in envelopes and Is not promiscuously handled. When they are exhibited in court and their preUmlnary preparation explained under oath conviction i3 practically certain.' Washington Star. A Wife's Method of Asking For Protection TIIE other evening as a muscular person was passing a house a lady who stood at the gate call ed out to him: "Sir, I appeal to you for protection!" "What's the matter?" he asked, as he stopped short. "There's a man in the house, and b wouldn't go out or doors wnen I or dered him to." "He wouldn't, eh? We'll see about that." Thereupon the man gave the woman his coat to hold and rushed into the house. He found a man at the sup per table and took him by the neck and remarked: "Nice style of a gentleman you are, eh? .Come out o' this or I'V break every bone in your body." The man fought, and it was not until a chair had been broken and the tabid upset that he was hauled out by the legs and given a fling through the gates. "ISow, then, you brass faced old tramp, you move on or I'll finish you.' "Tramp! Tramp!" shouted the vic tim, as he got up. "I'm no tramp! . I own this property and live in this house." "You do?" "Yes, and that's my wife holding j your coat," "Thunder r whispered the muscular man, as he gazed from one to the other and realised that it was the wife's method of finishing a row-she had been having with her hustand". And then ho made a grab for hH coat and disap peared inta the darkness.. Self Ffotyetlon. "You say your wife is a poor cook?" "The worst ever. V "And yet you sa;y tiat you eat all of everything she presres for the table. How can ypu do . lat if shf can't cook?" "Great earth, man If I don't, Ehe will use up the scrap tn some of those kow-to-utilize-left-over-dishes, and that will be my finish." Juaa Also Elewnre.

A iJouiiter. I wonder (said the pessimist). Not meaning" to offend. If there are men who like to fish Or if they Jost pretend. It may be sport to work all day To land one shiny fin. But tell me, you who play the game, Just where the fun comes in. The fisherman with ancient clothe And tackle bright and new Starts out before the break of day And walks an hour or two; Then he must stand and let the mm Beat down upon bis back. And -In the evening with three rish Or four he travels back. Perhapa he rents a heavy boat And for a weary day Iiill3 several times around the lake And calls the labor play.

To Scare Them Oil "Really, Miss Plainest should hire out to some farmer as a scarecrow." "Are the crows bad around here?" "No; the city hunters are." Missed a Grand CLance. We can deeply sympathize with the Vienna man who was challenged to fight 151 duels. A man would have to take more than a passing interest in any cause to be anxious to die for it 151 times in one day, but as only his honor was Involved he didn't feel like standing up to be shot at that -many times. It may be great for the honor, but It is mighty poor for the digestion to have a man trying to give a good imitation of a sieve and partially succeed ing. But as we understand the Euro pean duel there was not much danger of that In fact, if all accounts are true he would have been safe on the field of honor than at home, for at the latter place he might catch the measles or the whooping cough. On the whole it looks to us as though the gentleman In declining has over looked a bet. Think what a figure with the ladies the hero of 151 duels would have cut ABINGDON TODAY.
