This is to put gophers in, as some are pretty sure to be found pasturing in the wild grass patches. The moment a gopher is surprised by a person with a bag it shuts itself securely in its shell, and the cracker picks it up and tumbles it into the bag. The: gopher is likewise trapped by digging a hole close to the entrance of its burrow and sinking a barrel or box into it and cov- ering the trap with loose twigs. When the gopher comes out and starts on a foraging trip it tumbles into the trap and can’t get out. What terrapin are to the high-living epicure, the gopher is to the Florida cracker.” .

An old engraver said, in speaking of this matter: "This exposure of the recent big counterfeiting conspiracy has worked a. change already in the system by which the government has heretofore kept track of dangerous counterfeit- ing methods. Chief Wilkie, Isee, says that ,Taylor and Bredell employed 'a new system in imitating the $100 Mon- roe head counterfeit. He is wrong. The system has been in vogue for many years, and is common to all experts in our line. There are, no doubt, hun- dreds of engravers who would scorn'to do a dishonest act who could make counterfeit plates far better than the ones turned out by "Taylor and Bredell. As a matter of fact, the plate that was used to print the counterfeit internal revenue stamps was a very imperfect piece of work, and there are appren- tices I know of who could do better. However, they are good enough to fool the ordinary person. “In the near future the government will require all engravers and those connected with engraving establish; ments to register at least once a month and to present a list of the work per—l that the government has been forced to J NEW " Fb’R‘il ’61? ”Kira.

The plan was first suggested in Harvard in 1880, since which time the necessary fund has grown to $340,000. Harvard is the first American university to estab- lish a general system of retiring allow— It has been stated on pretty good au- thority that the leading statesmen of Japan are thinking of making Chris- tianity the established religion of the country, says the Evangelist. When the government of Japan was changed and the mikado assumed his kingly author- ity one of the first steps taken was the endowment and establishment of the Shinto religion.
