Ex-President Orover Cleveland holds the only . warrant for one cent ever drawn by the Secretary of the Treas ury upon the United States Treasurer. It was in payment of tho balance of tho salary due the Democratic chief tain at the close of his term in 1807, and Its issuance was made necessary by one of those mistakes that are rare on the part of the expert bookkeepers engaged in running the accounts of the government. Every quarter the President of the United States Is entitled to three checks one for $4,166.00 and two for $4,106.07. The table of methods of paying government salaries shows that If the $50,000 a year for the Pres. ldent Is divided into twelve equal In stallments, one for each month, the amount will be $4,106.00 2-3, but the two-thirds of a cent cannot be paid at the end of a month, and so the practice is to send the President a check for $4,100.00 one month and the other two months of the quarter the amount is $4,100.07. In some manner President Cleve land failed to get a check one month for the extra cent that was due him, and when the books were balanced at the close of his term it was detected. With all due solemnity tjie officers of the treasury drew the famous warrant for one cent, and Mr. Cleveland re ceived it with the same amount of se riousness. He has never cashed the warrant. longer than bosom of shirt; hollow It : out at neck, run piece of steel around, 1 leaving above surface a little, which fits inside of neck band.

No matter how plentiful and how very fine and large they may be in any district of Scotland, no native will eat one. The objection to the eel is said to be based on its serpentlike appearance and the fact that it is not overfastidious as to what it feeds on. A Great Monarch.
