BANK NCTEI FSOtl WHITE PAPER.
Here is a New fangled Operation I hat
Amazes Wal; Sir et Men.
Prom the Xew Yo'k Sun.
Two men of cheerful miaa sauntered into
an uptown art gallery on Turn lay evening.
Both were smoking fragrant wee is. They
had been to one of the Broadway theaters,
aud were still laughing at some of thecomi*
cal incidents of the farce. They were going
to have a nightcap. Just a3 thev had
ordered Bome.hing with a fizz to it and
plenty of stick in it, the man who was set
ting ’em up caught sight of another ac
quaintance in the doorway.
"Nou re just in time,’’ he cried, cheerily,
“hav e something. ”
The friend didn’t care if he did, he said,
aud the bartender mixed another fizz with
1. Uof stick to it. The three drank their
liquor leisurely and chatted about things at
the theater for about ten minutes. Then
the man who did the ordering asked for the
check. He got a bit of pasteboard stamped
45 cents, and felt in his pockets with an un
happy expression on his face.
‘‘Thunder and lightuing,” he exclaimed
at length, “I’ye lust my pocket book. Well
that is a good 'un on me.”
One of his acquaintances instantly dived
down into his pocket and yanked up a big
handful of looso silver.
“ Let tne settle," he interposed. But the
other man caught his arm with a reproving
gesture, and t< id him to keep his silver.
“Let the bartender taka it out of this,”
he said, and drawing a little pile of letters
and memoranda from his inside coat pocket,
pulled out a strip of white paper and laid it
on the bar with tho drink check. The paper
was perfectly blank, so was the look on the
bartender’s face.
“What’s this for?” be asked.
“To pay for tho drinks.”
“Here, hero,” retorted the drink slinger,
“we don’t app-eciate jokes here. We
haven’t got time to waste on ’em.”
“That 3 good for the order,” seronelv per
sisto 1 tbe customer.
“No it iaa’t. I want cash—American
cash.”
“That is good American cash. It’s a
}2 note, and I want my change, too."
“Como off!” the bartender exclaimed.
“Just pay up without any more funny
business.”
“Teen you won’t take that for $2?” said
tho customer, apparently surprised.
“Take that bit of white paper ? Well, not
much.”
“Well, I’ll bet 110 you will take it,” re
torted the customer, "and I’ll prove to you
that it is good money of the realm right
now.”
He pulled out of his trousers pocket a
little wooden disk on which rested two tiny
cylinders. They were sot up on the disk so
that the whole contrivance looked like a
tiny clothes wringer. The cylinders wore
about three inches long and a little over a
quarter of an inch in diameter. The cus
tomer fitted the strip of paper betweon tho
cylinders, and, putting a key in a hole at
the side of the cylinder frame, began
to turn them. The white paper slowly
glided out of view on one side of the cylin
der aud a brand-new *2-dollar bank'note
began to appear on the other side. It grew
longer and longer as the white paper disap
peared. When the paper had all disap
peared, the bank note dropped on the bar.
“There,” said the customer triumphantly.
“Now will you take the check out of that?”
Tho bartender bad watched the startling
metamorphosis with bulging eyes. He
stared at the hank not© for fully a minute.
Then he picked it up, felt of it, aud held it
to the light to see if had silk fiber. The
fiber was there. Finally he walked up to
the proprietor and showed it to him.
“That gentleman made it out of a piece of
white paper,” he said, pointing lo the cus
tomer.
The face of the latter was wreathed with
smiles. Tho boss examined the rote sus
piciously, but was soon convinced that it
was genuine, and he handed over *155
change.
“What kind of a machine do you call
that, any how?” asked the proprietor.
“Wouldn’t you liko to know>” retorted
the customer. “Well, it’s the little joker."
he added; “it just coins money out of paper
of any sort, old envelopes, protested checks,
prescription blanks, anything.
Then he rammed the cylinders In his
pocket and walked out. A number of the
other customers tagged after him, and
asked for the secret of the machine, but ho
merely winked his eye, and said nothing.
The money-making maohiue is a contriv
ance that first appeared in the west. It
took the western o.ties by storm. The New
"Yorker had got hold of the first one that
reached Gotham. There was another of
the machines in tho show window of a sa
loon on lower Broadway on Wednesday.
Brokers crowded messenger boys and news
boys away from the window in their eager
ness to see the cashier, in his leisure mo
ments, grind out new bank notes from
strips of old paper. The brokers stared at
the machine and tried to see how tho thing
was done, but they had to give it up in de
spair. The cashier made money from any
paper a customer gave him, hut he declined
to give tho money back again. That, of
course, made it evident that the trick da
pended for success on the machinery of the
tiny wringer.
Watch as closely as the spectators would,
however, they could not see one cylinder
consume the paper and the other cylinder
turn out the batik notes. The secret was
simple, but clever. Both cylinders are hol
low. One is loaded with bank notes wound
around a bar. The other cylinder
is empty when the machine starts
to make money. When the cj’linder key
is turned the empty oylinder rolls the paper
around its center bar, and tho money cylin
der begins to turn out a bank note. This
can be kept up just as long as the stock of
bank notes in the money cylinder holds
out. Bills of any denomination can be
rolled inside tho money cylinder.
KBELEY ON INEBRIETY.
The Doctor Promises to Cure Victims
of Dipsomania in 48 Hours.
From His Chicago Lecture.
Dwight is railed the “court of last rosort
for God’s unfortunates,” and I think justly
so. I will take any liquor habitue thfcra,
soddened and saturated by twenty years of
alcoholic debauch, sober him in two hours
cut short his worst spree in four heuro take
him from inebriety to perfect sobriety with
out nervous shock or distress, and leave him
antipathetic to alcoholic stimulants of every
sort and kind inside of three days, and in
the meantime will give him all the liquor he
asks for; this, with the confident assurance
that he will drop it of his own volition in
from thirtv-sU to forty-eight hours.
Never again will he want to desire it,
though he should live a hundred years,and
if be over goes back to liqnor he will do so,
not because of want or desire, but simply
with the intention to resume his old habits.
The sobering up process at Dwight is a small
matter, th ugh one much dreaded by tho in
ebriate at home. I take him from inebriety
to perfect sobriety much as a ship is lifted
from the water to the dry dock without
strain. ~ ... ,
i he formula for the cure of inebriety and
the opium habit, which I have discovered
after years ot experimental work, has never
vet been published at and never will be for
general use. lam aware that alleged analy
ses of my formula are published in the news
papers. I pronounce them unqualifiedly
To give the general public tho formula
from which my remedy is compounded
would be to simply destroy its efficacy an a
cure Tho remedy is not a proprietary one,
similar to the many others known as patent
remedies upon the market in drug stores.
It is a complete system which must be close
ly watched from beginning to finish, and
from which no detail can be ommittod with
out endangering its success.

THE MORNING NEWS: SATURDAY, JANUARY 18, 1892.
CRANKS AND LUNATICS.
A Crop of Them in tbe Windy City of
the West.
A big muscular man entered J. H. Fryo’s
drug store at Cottage Grove avenue ar.d
Twenty-ninth street at 1 o’clock this after
noon, says a Chicago special of Jan. 13 to
the New York Sun, and asked Clerk Louis
Rolde to telephone to Dr. Flavius M.
\V il !er that a man was dangerously ill at
2719 South Park avenue, aud that his serv
ices were desired at once.
The clerk sent the message to the house
and I eeeived a reply that the doctor would
Visit tho patient as soon as he returned
from a professional visiton Calumet avenue.
The big, muscular man seemed greatly
pleased wneu he received tbe answer, and
thanked the clerk for his trouble. Then he
buttoaod his heavy overcoat and left the
store.
One hour later Dr. Wilder, accompanied
by Coacuman Samuel Reed, drove up to the
big I carding house at 2719 South Park
avenue. Hu leaped out of nis .cutter, ran up
tne stairs and rang the bell. He carried a
chest of medicine iu his Ift hand. Coach
man Reed stood at the horse’s head when
the doctor sprang from the cutter.
A m mieu. t er Dr. Wilder rang tho bell
the door was quickly opened and tbe big,mus
cular man who had called at the drug store
darted into the outrance. He was bera
heade 1 and excited. From the curb Coach
man Reed saw the fellow thrust a revolver
into the doctor’s face and fire.
Tho doctor made some unintelligible ex
clamation and staggered toward the steps.
The bareheided nmu followed him, firing
first at his victim's head and tr en at his
breast. Four shots were fired when tho
doctor fell in the hallway covered with
blood. One bullet had pierced his left eye
and entered the brain.
Another s ruck him at the base of the
spine, and left the body above the right hip.
Two other bullets lodged in a package of
letters, which was iu an inside pocket of
tbe coat covering the heart. •
When he saw his victim was dying the
big bareheaded man uttered a loud yell and
tore down the steps. His eyes were blazing
and he waved his revolver above his head.
“Get out of tho way or I will kill you,
too,” he cried when Coachman Reed tried
to stop him.
Running into tbe street, the maniac
sprang into the cutter and lashed the horse
into a gallop. People began to pour out of
the building! adjoining and join in the
pursuit, but the wild man in the cutter fiew
over the snow on Calumet avenue and
quickly left his pursuers behind, without
stopping for obstacles or the crios cf team
sters.
Tho crazy man in the cutter swept around
corners and through the streets until he
reached the Twenty-seooud street police
station. Here he stopped his horso and ran
into the squad room.
“I’ve done it at last," he oried to Desk
Sergeant Carey, "and this is what I did it
with.”
The mad man gave his revolver to the
policeman and sat down. While he was sit
ting in the chair a telephone message came
from the Cottage Grove avenue station to
look out for a bareheaded maa who was
alone in a cutter. The message continued:
"The fellow is John Redmond, the crazy
blacksmith, acd he has killed a mao.”
Redmond did not object to be placed in a
cell. He said he did not like iron bars for
breakfast, aud then he bega ito sing. Half
an hour later he was taken to the Cottage
Grove avenue station.
When Dr. Wilder fell in the hallway his
head struck an iron pillar. The gash in
flicted by this fall increased the hemorrhage
and covered his face with blood. The dying
man’s brother, who is also a doc'.or, came
to the house just in time to drive away a
morbid crowd which was swarming up the
steps. The doctor lived less than twenty
minutes after the madman sprang over his
body.
The murder was the culmination of a
domestic tragedy which has no equal in the
criminal history of Chicago. Four years
ago little Annie Redmond, the only daugh
ter of the murderer, was stolen from the
street whilo at play. The abduotion caused
an unusual sensation. The police and press
were appealed to, and each willingly lent
assistance iu the effort to recover the little
g;ri. The grief-stricken father abandoned
his work and looked incessantly for his
daughter. So great became the strain UDon
his mind that ho lost his reason, and he was
committed to the insane asylum at
Kankake". But the search was not aban
doned. Press and people followed up the
search with renewed vigor. Subscription
lists wore opened and citizens subscribed
liberally.
One day while a woman living in the
neighborhood of the Redmond household
was visiting the Homo fur the Friendless at
Twentieth street and Wabash she recognized
tho pretty face of Annie, The good news
was imparted to the child's mother and in
an incredibly short time the little one was
returned to her home. The effoi ts of the
police on the case were not fruitier. Mr.
aud Mrs. Gurley, who lived a
short distanco from the Redmond
household, were arrestod with one
Annie Alien, charged J with abducting
the child. Tho trial which followed was
watohed with intense interest by the publics
Mrs. Gurley was identified as the woman
seen taking little Annie in her arms and
bearing her away. She was found guilty
and sentenced to five years in tho peniten
tiary. The other woman was liberated, but
it appears from subsequent developments
that Mrs. Allen was the one who abduc ed
the child at the suggestion of Mr. Gurley.
The object of the kidnaping has never been
clearly shown.
During the time that the child was missing
before she entered the home she was kept a
prisoner at tho Gurley house. She was
taken to the [sisters’ home by neighbors of
the Gurleys, who entered the house and
found Gurley maltreating the child. It was
not known to these neighbors that the little
girl who was so brutally beaten was tbe
much sought after Annie Redmond. With
his mind unbalanced by his trouble. Red
mond grew homicidal. Ha threatened to
kill his w.fe, and even little Annie, for
whom he had lost everything he possessed,
did nit escape his blows. Finally the poor
fellow was placed in an insane asylum.
His condition began to improve, and after a
few months’ treatment he was released.
His wife, fearful of her life, sued for di
vorce, however, and a decree was granted
to her.
This blow drove Redmond mad again, and
he has been moody ever since. Dr. Wilder
has been treating him, and it is supposed
that tbe maniac imagined that his friend
had also turned against him. Maddened by
Ins vagaries, yet cunning in his plans for
luring the doctor to death, be bought a re
volver and quietly lay in wait for the time
when his victim should appear.
Dr. Wilder was one of the most successful
practitioners in the city. He leaver a widow
and three children. Redmond lived where
he committed the murder, but hls story that
a man was sick there was merely a ruse to
bring the doctor to the muzzie of his re
volver.
GRESHAM AND THE CRANK.
Judge Walter Q. Gresham had an expe
rience wita a crazy man to-day, says a
Chicago special of Jan. 12, to the New York
World, which is best told in the distin
guished jurist’s own words:
"This morning when I first entered the
chambers in the northeast corner ot tbe
court room, I found Judges Blodgett and
Jenkins and this man. After speaking to
Judges Blodgett and Jenkins, this man
approached, asking of soma one a name I
did not know.
"I told him I did not know, and he an
swered that the person had agreed to meet
him there this morning, and ought to be
there. I supposed the man had business in
court aud paid no further attention to him.
“About 3 o'clock this afternoon tho mail
entered the chambers on the other side of
tho ball where I was and told me that the
marshal had that money looked up and
would not give it to him, as I had ordered
he should. Not yet realizing that ths man
was out of bis mind I asked him what
money he referred to and he said that
15,000 which Jay Gould had paid for him
and which it had been ordered he should
have.
“I then looked into tit face and observed
a wild expression on his c >untenane@, and
told him to go with me t> ths marshal and
1 would see that be got wbat he was enti
tled to. He declined, saying that anarchists
were after him and wanted to kill him.
“I had managed to get t-etwtren him and
the do r, and, keeping my eyes on him. tohl
him to sit down and 1 would be back in a
moment. He then took a seat, aud lat
once went to the marshal's office, told the
deputies what bad occurred and told them
to inform tbe police of tbe condition of ths
poor man so ;hat be might be cared for.
“Deputy Hayes returned with me, and
when we entered the room the presenue of
the deputy seemed to excite the man and he
declined to go with the officer. I directed
the deputy tj leave the room for a time,
which he did, not closing the dor after
him. Tbe maa then closed tho and or and
went to tbe door leading from tne chambers
to the court room aud locked it,
"His manner did not indicate that he was
dangerous. I told him to sit down and he
did so.
“Ha again said he was in danger from
anarchists, and referred to bis $5,000 and
claimed my protection. I assured him he
should not he hurt. He asked me if I were
a clairvoyant, and told ine he was con
stantly receiving messages from teople of
that kind and had just received one from
Jay Gould. Ho seemed surprised that 1 had
not heard of it.
Aftor a little he again becimo quieted,
but in the meanwhile some of tho deputies
had sent for the police and they were out
side of tho do r. The man in some way
learned of their presence aud again became
excited.
“I told the police and the marshals that
they had better not enter the room for a
time. The man again convinced himself
that the door leading to the court room was
still locked and tried to lock the hail door,
but found no key.
“I bad him take a seat again and told him
I go soon, at the same time keeping
careful watch on him. Ha listed wbat
would become of him, and requested that I
protect him until the military arrived. I
told him he’d better domaud the protection
of the marshal until the arrival of the
soldiers, and he said he would do so.
“I then went out aud requested Marshal
Hitchcock to go in the room, as I expected
to leave it soon. Ho could not go, but sent
his son, and I told tho man that the young
man was Marshal Hitchcock’s son and would
afford him protection when I left, aud im
mediately quitted the room.”
Two policemen and two other men, after
a struggle, succeeded in overpowering the
lunatic, who, with a cane which he carried,
attempted to prevent his capture. He gave
his immo as Martin MoCinahav, is of pow er
ful build, and about 50 years old. Nothing
further is known of him. He will doubtless
be sent to an insane asylum.
ARE YOO WEARING RAT HEALS?
You Probably Are, But Think That It
is a Equirrel’a Head.
From the Aew York .Vail and Express.
In your protty winter wardrobe you may
finds several rats’ heads doing duty as orna
ments. Didn’t you know it. girls? Well,
look and see.
The idea is not a pretty one, but It is
nevertheless one that is really in accord
ance with fact. When the fashion came in
at the beginning of this year for tho wear
ing of heads, heads had to bo found. Thero
were not enough to anything like supply the
demand for thorn, and there had to boa
sudden production of heels from some
where. At first miuk beads and squirrel
heads did dutv, but tbe supply of them soon
ran out. and then some manufacturing
genius discovered that squirrel heads were
exactly liko rats’ heads.
Decapitating two specimens of those ani
mals and placing ths heads side by side it
was impossible to tell which was which, and
so all of a sudden the mystery was solved
and a good solution was found for the per
plexing problem of more heads than were
on hand. All the rat-catchers of tbe coun
try were notified that they would be paid a
certain sum for heads, and behold into the
fur shops they came bringing barrels on
barrels of rat heads.
The idea is horrible! Simply horrible!
Isn’t it? But then there are ever so many
horrible things which become less so after
one gets accustomed to hearing about them.
So the dear little head which is upon your
muff and tho half dozen heads which are
upon the front of your coat and the head
which is on your boa, and the several heads
which are upon your hat, probably, all
oome off of real live rats.
Mary Qitejex of Scots had a favorite lap dog,
which is said to have beeu present at the execu
tion of its poor mistre<s in Fotheringay castle.
After the royal lady had been beheaded this
faithful creature refused to leave her dead body
aud had to be carried out of the hall by force.
At that period lan dogs w re the pets of men as
well as of women. Dr. Boleyn, a relative of the
unhappy Que-n Anne boleyn, owned one
"which.” as it is written, "he doted on.” Anne
once asked him to grant her one wish, and in
return ho should have whatever he might desire.
Knowing his affection for the dog, she begged It
of him, and, of course, the doctor had nothing
to do but to give it to her. "And now, madame,"
he said, “you promised to grant me my re
quest.’’ "i will," quoth the que *n. "Then, I
pray you, giye me my dog again "
