e The Chief o' t lie Unitel States Secret
t Service Talks About thle Makers o
k Spurious Money.
U Washington Star.
A counterfeit of the $5 United Statcs
s silver certilicate, series of IS96, has
been forwarded to the secret service
bureau at the treasury department
I from Chicago. It is the first that has
been received since last .anuary, and
experts declare it a clever piece of
work which would not be detected as
a counterfeit _xccpt under clcse scru
tiny. It has a number of points about
it which stamp it as being spurious,
but which would not be noticed by the
laity.
" I had been expecting this note to
e turn up for a long time," said Chief
Elazen of the secret service bureau te
a Star reporter today, as he shoved
the counterfeit note across the table tc
ibe examined by the reporter. "I air
rather surprised that we have not se
g cured it before.
"1 It comes from Chicago, and fron
e certain earmarks which I can detec
eabout It, it It the work of a note<
counterfeiter by the name of John Al
o f.redJ' oog. L'Koog is a ;wed bw,u
.35 years of age, and rather clover as i
note maker. He escaped from Joile
e prison, Illinois, last March, where ht
hy had been sent from Chicago for cout
i terfeiting, with two other men. The3
were coin makers, named Jacob John
I son and James Poley. They were re
i captured and returned to the prison
but so far L'Kuog has eluded watchful
ness of the olicers.
" Ever since his escape we have beeq
looking out for some of his work, and
it just turned up. When a man has
started in the business he ruver quits
it, uniess by force of circumstances.
" It is only reasonable to suppose that
L'Koog would return to his old haunts
and occupation in Chicago, and the
tsupposition proved cor:-ect.
" Tbc last counterfeit, note we re
ceived was from Chicago also. It was
a $20 Manning head certificate, and
turned up Jan 11. The Windy City is
a cee.ter for counterfeiters, as the
d workers have often been capitured
there.'
T 1he chief sat in his p)rivate ollice in
Sthe treasury building, about which
clings an air of mystery connected
with everything pertaining to the sc,
cret service. Oin the walls were pie

I were six members of the gang, In

" We swooped down upon thetn in

p" "eedingly clever, and would have passed
'T.bution almost anywhere.
iblast case '*itad was a man
and woman arrested recently for coun
terfeiting dlimes in Brooklyn."
The chief opened one of the cabinets
fixed so that leaves in which photo
graphs were fixed of noted counterfeit
ers easily swung outward. Thero were
more than 1,100 photos in this cabinet
alone of the queer people. They were
of all ages, colors, classes and appear
auces. Some of them were women
well dressed, with in many cases re
lined faces. The countonances'of a
number of the men were handsome,
the expression pleasing and intelli
gent.
Chief Hazen pointed to the picture
of a young mian, with an open, smiling
face.
"That fellow Is a college student,"
he said, re llectively. " He came of an
excellent family. lHe is now serving a
several years sentence in Indiana for
raising notes. - When his term expires
he will probably return to it."
So he went through a large list, toll
ing of the crimes and deeds of the
originals of the photos.
It is an album of faces which is a
notable one, and the chief frequently
inspects them so that they will not
fado from his memory.
TPY 11011) FEVER AND 1)ROPSY.
Iaw Onions a Curative Agent in
Both 1)lseases.
Mr. John it. Cox, a citizen of 13alti
iore, publishes the following comunu
nication in the Baltimore American :
"' Sometime since a gentleman in
formed me that he knew of several
persotns who had been enred of typhoid
fever, by the application of mnashed
raw onions to the feet. Two patients
were so ill that they were not, expected
to live over a few hours. Six large
onions were pounded to pulp and ap
plied to the feet of the first patient.
Ie was relieved in a short time and
got well. The second ease was at few
weeks later and the result was equally
- satisfactory. The first opportudi$i.)
had I tried it upoti a colored boy it '
i ing one of my visits to the house of
reformation for colored children. l Ie
was very ill with typhoid fevor. I
- named the matter to General Horn,
who immediately ordered the applica
tioun. In a few hours he got to sleep;
rested well and recovered. The next
opportunIty was that of a son of a frlend
of mine in our city. I called to seo h in
on business when he informed mo his
son was very ill with typhoid pneu
monia. He had been delirious for a
week or more, and required constant
watching for fear he might do himself
harm. I advised him to try the onions.
lie d id so and thus speaks of it : " im
mediately on its application he began
to improve and continued until he
Ii nai ly recovered." Perhaps they might
be ellicaciou's in other forms. The
rem< dy is simple and safe, and a trial
in any case can do no harm. They
have cured dropsy. Mr. Ralph Brunt,
a very respectable, reliable gentleman,
informed mc that his wife had suIfor
ed for a long time wit,h dropsy. She
was swelled from her head to her feet.
Shec was attended by dilferent, physi
cians. who finally said :' MIr. Brunt, we
can do no more ; your wife cannot live.
We catn give temporary relief by Lap
ping her.' Ils wife deLclineCd the opera
tion, as It would but prolong her su f
ferings. At this time his attention was
called to a p)aragraplh In a newsp)aper in
which a gentleman made the stat,ement
that he had been cured of dropsy by
catting onions. iUls physicians had
told him that he could not live. One
day he wanted to eat some raw onions
and did so. A fter eating them he felt
better and tried some more. lie then
made it at rule to eat six a (lay, and in
a few weeks he wats well, iIe felt it his
duty to publish it for the benefit of
others. Thus NIMr. Brunt knew of It,.
le called the attention of his wife to
it. She was willing to try it ; did( so,
and at the end of one week discharged
her nu rse, attended to) her household
dluties, and was so reduced in size.' that
her' frien3rds could scarcely recogniz.e
her at first sight. She lived for more
than :30 years afterward, and died
somo1 years ago oveor 80 years of ago.
If the foregoing pr~oves the means of
benefiting anyone, the only regret, I
will feel will be that I did not at.tend
to the promptings of duty sooner."
