Show Dollar Drew No Interest. In his speech at an Evacuation day dinner In Boston tho other ovenlng Gen. Miles mentioned that whllo working work-ing In that city before the civil war he saved up a dollar and deposited It In a savings bank. He had not thought of it for many yeara, but his visit to Boston recalled tho matter. Tho officials of-ficials of tho bank looked over their books and sure enough found thnt tho dollar was there In tno namo of Nelson A. Miles. Unfortunately for him, however, how-ever, no deposit of less than $3 draws Interest, so he might ns well have had his treasure hidden In a stocking. |
