The first bank robbery in U.S. history took place on March 19, 1831, when the City Bank of New York was burgled. Come along with Tidbits as we consider bank robberies!

1720 S. 12th Street Bismarck, ND 58504

BUNGLED BURGLARIES • To guard against recognition, a bank robber in London wore three stocking masks and a scarf over his face. He announced that he had a gun and ordered everyone to lie down, then reached into his pocket to pull out his gun to show he meant business. However, his vision was obstructed so completely by the layers of masks that instead of a gun he pulled out his glasses case. After a few minutes of brandishing this unusual weapon at the amused hostages, he fled. He was arrested shortly afterward.

• A legally blind man tried to hold up a bank in London but ran into trouble when he couldn’t distinguish between the bank’s glass windows and the glass doors.

• A guy robbed a bank in Champaign, Illinois in 1985 and was caught when he returned to the same bank at a later date to open a new account.

• When a bank robber in Albuquerque demanded that the teller hand over all the money, the teller was so shocked that she fainted dead away. The robber fled.

• Raymond Burles walked into a bank in France, demanded the cash, and stacked it neatly in a zippered case. When he laid his gun on top of the money and zipped the case closed, security officers nabbed him.

Tidbits® of Bismarck BANK ROBBERIES (continued):

BUNGLED BURGLARIES (continued): • The cashier gave a bank robber in Oakland a bag full of marked bills secretly rigged with an explosive device that would detonate as soon as it passed through the bank’s door. The robber soon regretted stuffing the bag down the front of his trousers.

• Bruce Damon held up the Mutual Federal Savings Bank in Brockton, Massachusetts. He stunned tellers when he demanded that instead of cash, he wanted them to write out a check. He was arrested when he tried to deposit the check into his account at another bank.

• A bank robber in Los Angeles made off with over $5,000 but dropped his wallet containing all of his ID as he left the bank. Shortly afterwards, he appeared at the police station. He was hoping if he returned all the money the police would return his wallet and forget about the whole thing. They accepted the return of the money but refused to forget about the whole thing.

• A bank robber in Brooklyn stuffed nearly half a million dollars in bills into two Hefty bags.

The bags were too heavy to carry so he dragged them towards the door. When one of the bags split open and spilled all the money on the floor, he stopped to collect it. That’s when security officers grabbed him.

• A bank robber in Tel Aviv in 1995 was foiled by a hard-of-hearing cashier, who could not hear him whispering, “This is a hold-up.” He fled in embarrassment.

UNUSUAL HOLD-UPS • In Charleston, South Carolina, a man handed a stick-up note to an ATM machine in front of a bank. When the machine didn’t come across with any cash, he shot it twice and drove off. He was later arrested.

• A man decided to rob a bank’s outdoor night deposit box in West Virginia in 1980. He wrapped a chain around it and attached the other end to his bumper. When he took off, he expected the front door of the box to rip off. Instead, the night deposit box was left intact—and his rear bumper came off. He drove away, leaving the bumper behind him. Police arriving on the scene noted the license plate still attached to the bumper and arrested him in short order.

• A bank robber in Oregon handed a note to the teller saying, “This is a holdup and I’ve got a gun. Put the money in a paper bag.” The cashier wrote back, “I haven’t got a paper bag.” The robber fled.

BANK ROBBERIES (continued):

UNUSUAL HOLD-UPS (continued): • An armored car robbery in Arlington, Texas in 1991 occurred right next to a busload of Japanese tourists, who were all armed with cameras. Dozens of clear photos of the robber’s face and license plate were readily available to help police in the short, quick search for the culprit.

• In 1990 James Richardson and Jeffrey Defalco tried to steal a safe weighing three tons.

It wouldn’t fit in their car so they tied a chain around it and dragged it behind their car. It made an incredible noise and threw up a huge shower of sparks, which attracted the attention of many people. It also dented the pavement, leaving an easy-to-follow trail for the police. The safe was empty.

GET-AWAY GOOFS • A bank robber in Riverhead, New York in 1979 was dismayed when he returned to his car with the cash to find the car would not start.

Police found him hiding in a nearby tree.

• Paul Benier robbed the Lafayette Cooperative Bank in Swansea, Massachusetts. When he rushed to the get-away car, he discovered he had locked the keys in the car.

• Two 17-year-old boys robbed the Seafirst Bank in suburban Seattle. The battery in their get-away car went dead at the crucial moment.

When they got out to check under the hood, the doors shut and automatically locked behind them. The key was in the ignition, the money was locked in the car, the battery was dead and they didn’t have a spare key—so they took off running. They ran smack into the police car that showed up just then.

• In 1931 a couple of would-be bank robbers in Shelby, Kentucky, stole a truck to use as their get-away vehicle. They parked it right outside the bank while they went in to do the robbing.

While they were busy with the hold-up, the rightful owner of the stolen truck happened by.

Seeing his truck in front of the bank, he hopped in and drove away. The two robbers, laden with bags of money, rushed outside to find their getaway vehicle gone.

• In Waltham, Massachusetts, a bank robber got some $3,000 from the tellers, then phoned for a taxi. Police arrested him as he waited for his ride in the bank lobby.

• Richard Stowell robbed the Chase Lincoln First Bank in Syracuse, New York. He tried to make his quick get-away on a city bus. He failed.

It was the second time he’d been apprehended on a bus after robbing a bank.

• Bank robber Anthony Colella got away with $2,100 in a holdup in Brooklyn. However, as he was making his get-away, he was mugged by an attacker who jumped out of a station wagon.

The mugger relieved him of his entire haul. This upset the bank robber so much that he called the police and reported the crimes—both of them.

The cops promptly arrested him.

• A bank in Nice, France was robbed of about $10 million in valuables and currency. Many rich depositors didn’t even apply to be reimbursed for their losses because it would have meant revealing how much they had stashed away without reporting it for taxes.

NOTEWORTHY INVENTIONS:

CHARLES DARROW • Charles Darrow is remembered as the inventor of the game Monopoly, though that’s not quite the truth. In fact, Charles Darrow took a game that already existed, modified it, patented it, and marketed it. Because of his efforts, it eventually became the #1 selling game of all time.

• Charles Darrow was a salesman in Philadelphia who sold heaters. After the stock market crash of 1929, he lost his job and supported himself with a number of odd jobs.

• At the time, there were a number of board games making the rounds. One was called The Landlord’s Game, and another one was called The Fascinating Game of Finance.

• Charles’ wife Esther was friends with a man named Charles Todd, who was a big fan of a similar sort of game, which used the streets of Atlantic City (where he vacationed) as the property titles. Todd taught the game to Esther, and Esther taught the game to her husband.

• Charles Darrow thought there might be a way to make money off the game, so he and his wife and his son William set up a cottage industry manufacturing and selling the game.

Charles carved tiny houses and hotels out of scrap wood, Esther hand-painted the property titles and the Chance and Community Chest cards, and William made the game boards out of circular pieces of oilcloth. Charles originally used charms from Esther’s charm bracelet as the game pieces. They called their version of the game Monopoly.

• In 1933, Charles copyrighted the game in spite of the fact that he was not technically the inventor. Still, he sold plenty of copies to Wanamaker’s Department Store in Philadelphia, at $2.50 each.

by Samantha Weaver • It was Irish playwright George Bernard Shaw who made the following sage observation: “There is no sincerer love than the love of food.”

• You might be surprised to learn that the fastest flying insect is the dragonfly; it’s been clocked at speeds up to 35 mph.

• In Japan, a black cat crossing your path is considered to be good luck, not bad.

• If you have trouble getting along with your in-laws, you might dream of getting payback someday. A man named Charles Webb did just that -- on a grand scale. While in high school, Webb dated a girl named Eve; Eve’s mother, however, didn’t think Webb was good enough for her daughter and did everything she could to keep them apart. The two eventually got married, and Webb wrote the novel “The Graduate” ... yes, the one that was turned into a movie starring Dustin Hoffman. The character of the drunken, promiscuous motherin-law was based on the woman who’d tried to sabotage his relationship for years.

• When archaeologists discovered the tomb of King Tut, one of the objects they found inside was a bronze razor -- and it was still sharp enough to use.

• Washington, D.C., has a lower marriage rate than any other major U.S. city.

• The breed of dog known as the Great Dane didn’t come from Denmark; it’s German in origin.

• President George Washington reportedly was terrified at the thought of being buried alive. He insisted that his burial not take place until at least three days after his death, just to make sure he was really deceased.

• The starling is the world’s most common bird. *** Thought for the Day: “Few things are harder to put up with than a good example.” -- Mark Twain (c) 2015 King Features Synd., Inc.

For Advertising Call: (701) 391-2076 CHARLES DARROW (continued):

• Charles approached both Milton Bradley and Parker Brothers to see if they would buy the rights to the game, but was turned down. Parker Brothers thought it was too long and complex.

But when Darrow started selling over 5,000 copies a year, Parker Brothers bought the rights to the game.

Read Tidbits® Online! www.bismarcktidbits.com

• Within a year, 20,000 sets of the game were being produced every week. Monopoly ended up being the best-selling board game in America that year, and it made Darrow the first millionaire game designer in history.

• When Parker Brothers was subsequently sued by people who had come up with similar games, the company bought out the rights to all of them and re-negotiated the royalty agreement they had with Charles Darrow.

• On March 16, 1751, future President James Madison is born in Virginia. Madison, one of the key drafters of the U.S. Constitution and the Bill of Rights, became America’s fourth president in 1809 and is considered the Father of the Constitution.

• On March 21, 1804, French Emperor Napoleon Bonaparte enacts a new legal framework for France, known as the “Napoleonic Code.” The Code strengthened the authority of men over their families, deprived women of any individual rights and reduced the rights of illegitimate children.

• On March 20, 1861, President Abraham Lincoln’s youngest sons, Willie and Tad, are diagnosed with the measles. The boys recovered, but in 1862, Willie died from typhoid fever. Tad died at age 18 in 1871.

Lincoln’s second son, Eddie, died before his fourth birthday. Only the first born, Robert, lived to an advanced age; he passed away in 1926 at age 82.

• On March 17, 1905, future president Franklin Delano Roosevelt weds his fifth cousin once-removed, Eleanor Roosevelt.

After losing her mother when she was 8 and her father when she was 10, Eleanor was raised by the extended Roosevelt family. She met her future husband when she was 2 years old and he was 4.

• On March 18, 1911, Irving Berlin copyrights the biggest pop song of the early 20th century, “Alexander’s Ragtime Band.”

The song was easier to play than Joplin’s “The Entertainer,” which encouraged sheet music sales. Those topped 1.5 million copies in the first 18 months.

• On March 19, 1953, the movie world’s most prestigious honors, the Academy Awards, are telecast for the first time, on NBC. Previously, audiences at home could only listen on the radio. The sealed envelope system began 12 years earlier after a newspaper printed the results prematurely.

• On March 22, 1983, the Pentagon awards a production contract to develop 55,000 High Mobility Multipurpose Wheeled Vehicles (HMMWV), nicknamed the Humvee. In 1992, a 10,000-pound civilian version, known as the Hummer, went on sale. (c) 2015 King Features Synd., Inc.

• Charles Darrow died in 1967 at the age of 78.

In 1970, Atlantic City placed a commemorative plaque in his honor on the Boardwalk, near the corner of Park Place.

• Rumor has it that during World War II, special Monopoly sets were delivered to POW camps in Germany which secretly contained files, a compass, a map, and real money. Some people claim this story is false.

• The first Monopoly edition in Braille was published in 1973.

• The Atlantic City Commissioner of Public Works considered name changes for Baltic and Mediterranean Avenues (because they are the lowest priced properties in the game) but fans of the game, along with the president of Parker Brothers, successfully lobbied for the city to keep the names.

• The longest Monopoly game ever played lasted for 70 days. More Monopoly money is printed every year than the U.S. Mint prints real money.

Ridley Scott has made it clear that he’s a nonbeliever directing a Bible story, which actually is pretty common among Hollywood biblical epics. The hullabaloo and visual wizardry of the film’s action sequences feel more like interruptions than developments.

Also, in order to irritate Moses into saving his chosen people, the Lord takes the shape of a young boy -- probably the most annoying and bratty interpretation of the Almighty.

MONEY • The word cash comes from the Chinese word ‘kase’ meaning small coin. ‘Money’ comes from the Roman goddess Juno Moneta, who stood guard over the temple where coins were minted.

A dollar is called a buck because before money was minted, a buck skin was a common form of currency.

• The word ‘check’ came from the game of chess. Putting the king in check means his choices are limited, just like a modern day check limits opportunities for forgery and alteration.

• The dollar sign $ originated with the Spanish abbreviation meaning ‘peso’ being a combination of the letters PS. • Coins could once be cut into pieces to make change. Two bits was a quarter of a Spanish dollar, which could be divided into eight pieces. That’s how pirates got pieces of eight and England got the halfpenny and the farthing which was originally a ‘fourthings’ or a fourth of a penny.

• It costs 2.4 cents to manufacture a penny, and 6.2 cents to manufacture a bill.

• The first coin that bore the name United States of America was minted in 1787. It was worth a cent and bore the slogan, “Mind Your Business.”

• When the first U.S. mint opened, individual citizens could take their gold and silver there to have it made into coins, free of charge.

• The most valuable U.S. coin is the $3 gold piece minted in 1870. There is only one known to exist.

• All coins currently minted have a portrait of a president on them. By law no living person is allowed to be portrayed on money of the U.S. • If you count 150 one dollar bills per minute and count 16 hours a day it would take you 20 years to count out a billion dollars.

• If someone gave you a million one dollar bills, you would need a box three and a half feet wide by two feet deep by five feet long to carry it all, which is approximately the size of a coffin.

• There are only 7 denominations of paper money commonly in use today in the U.S.: $1, $2, $5, $10, $20, $50, and $100. The highest denomination ever issued was the $100,000 bill, which had a portrait of Woodrow Wilson on it. It is no longer printed.

• About half of all bills in circulation are $1 bills. A dollar bill lasts about 18 months in circulation. A coin lasts about 25 years.

• A damaged bill that is still 3/5ths intact can be redeemed for full face value. If only 2/5ths are left, it can be redeemed for half face value.

Less than that and it’s worthless.

• About 3 out of every 10,000 bills are counterfeit.

• Paper money is made from 25% cotton and 75% linen and 0% paper. It’s more like cloth than paper.

• All 50 states are listed on the top of the Lincoln Memorial on the back of a $5 bill.

• If an asterisk appears in front of the serial number on a bill, it means it’s a replacement for the original, which was defective.

• There’s about 1.2 trillion dollars in coin and bills in circulation in the U.S. • If you have $10 in your pocket and no debts, you are wealthier than 25% of Americans.

• If all the money in the world were distributed equally among all the people in the world, every person would have about $11,000.

• Research has shown that people are happier if they spend their money on experiences rather than possessions.
