Those who were permitted to hear
the Rev. J. p. Ash last Sabbath morn
ing and evening, unite in the testi-
msny that he not only knows the
gospel truth but understands how to
present the gospel in q remarkably
clear and forcible manner. He prom
ises to come and assist the pastor,
sometime in the future. We should
not care to go before the judgement
bar of God unsaved, with such truth
ringing in our ears. His collection

One Of the most delightful events Of
the season was the wedding Of Mr.. J.
Englund and Mis- Emma Larson, on
Thursday, January 18th, 1883. The
ceremony was ut the Salemsborg
church, at 1890 AN.
The wedding Larty, consisting Of
bride and groom, each with four At
tendants, was conducted to the altar
by Pastor Dahlsten, who read the
marriage service and in few earnest
words pronounced the couple man and
wife. The bride was most becomingly
attired In brown silk, plain and bro
c~de, with white gloves and veil.
Amer the ceremony about one hun
dred Of those assembled proceeded to
the residence Of Mr.. Larson, to offer
their congratulations, and partake
Of the :bountiful dinner provided
by Mn. Larson and her daughter,
Mrs. Anderson "a dinner that would
have satisfied the most fastiduous
epicurs, which was flanked by apples,
cider, nuts and candy. 1t was time Of
gladness and sociability, and many,
among whom was your reporter, did
not feel the influence Of Morpheus till
long past the hour of midnight. There
were many presents Of silver, china,
and furniture, but they were too nu-
mersus to itemize. All who were
present will long remember this day,
and wish the happy couple may in
wife US all to their golden wedding.

THE DOLLAR OF 1904.
What Collectors Have to Say About It--&1
Sold for $40.


Philadelphia Record.
In the recent sales at Bangs's in New York
the most valuable specimen sold was silver
dollar of 1904 which brought $40 1t was
a well-preserved coin and was pronounced
genuine by experts. There has been some
discussion among collectors as to the 1904
dollar recently, and it has been asserted that
some of the coins bearing that date and priced
by proud owners had been altered by clever
manipulation from earlier dates. 1t was said
also that absolute counterfeits had been
placed in the hands of collectors by design
ing persons, and that the really genuine
1804s could be counted on the fingers of one
hand. The dollar of 1904 weighed 4l2x
grains. The coin that was sold in New
York belonged to a Baltimore collector
and has been for some time in the
hands of a well-known Philadelphia nu-
mismatist. 1t is said to have come from
Vienna, but how it found its way there no
one is able to tell. 1t is in splendid condi-
ton. The price expected was at least 81 500
(some predicted s., 000) but it is probable that
recent publications relative to restrikes and
deliberations weakened to some extent the
confidence of collectors. According to the
best authorities, there was more than one re-
strike of the 1904 dollar. One was made by
an employee, and the coins were recovered
with the exception of two. What became of
these is not known. They were distinguished
from the genuine by not having lettering on
their edges Another restrike was made
sometime in 1910, at the request of the Penn
sylvana Bank, one of whose foreign CUSTOM
ers wanted to complete his collection. Only
three were struck of which one went abroad,
another was obtained by a collector OF that
day, and the third is missing Any one OF
these restrikes would sell at $500 if its pedi-
gree were established.
4 collector said last night that, judging
from the number of 1904 dollars that are
coming to light, they cannot be so rare as
some people think He says that if they
turn up as rapidly in the next ten years as
they have in the past ten the 1904 will cease
to be the rarest Of American dollars, and the
1858 will take its place. The latter never got
into circulation, and the mint books are 81
lent as to silver dollars in that year, but
eighty or ninety proof coins were struck. and
most of these are in the hands OF collectors
They sold ten years ago for from Si0 to Si5
each, but now they bring $50 or $40, and a
proof set of the silver coinage OF that year is
worth from $40 to $50.

PRAYING BY PROXY.
Business Men Who Draw a Line. in Peti
t;oning for Temporal Blessings.

PltteDurg Dispatch.
A big building on William street extends
from Fulton to Ann, New York, and reaches
seven stories into the air. its exterior indi-
Gates, by multiplicity of signboards, that
its inside is crowded with BUSINESS and so it
is except that right In its center, removed
alike from the ground, and the outer walls,
is a chapel. If the visitor seeks his way up
stairs at noon, he will see a gathering of
twenty or thirty men, mostly gray-haired,
and possibly woman or two, OF city mis-
siopary look. A chairman sits behind the
pulpit. He is brisk and businessiike, for the
meeting will last only half an hour, and if
he wastes time he will not be chosen to lead
again. He prays briefly, reads passage of
scripture, and then takes up a bundle of
letters, which he handles as though they
were on the desk in his own office. He reads
several rapidly. They are requests for spe-
cific prayers. They come from widely sepa-
rated places. One is from woman who de-
sires that her drunken husband shall reform;
another expresses mothers concern as to
her irreligious son. and so on through varl-
Gus moral and religious needs and aspirations.
will some brother prayp' he says.
A responsive voice is raised, deyoutly, but
in a hasty, concise manner. The desires of
the correspondents are reiterated, much as
the speaker might dictate to a clerk the Or
ders received by mail from customers. But
this is done without loss of devotional spirit
These men firmly believe that their PRAYERS
are often answered. The chairman OCCASION
ally reads letters telling of the most remark
able cases, not only OF religious conversions,
but of miraculous recoyeries from illness.
1t is frequently ciphered out that the cure
has been wrought perhaps, thousands of
miles away, at the very instant when the
prayer was offered here. The fame of these
wonders does not fail to excite cupidity. Let
ters are received daily by the dozen in which
the prayers desired are for wholly temporal
blessings. The number of young men who
ask to be prayed into employment in New
York is large, And the other day Wiscon-
sin widow wrote that if the brethren would
pray for it she felt sure that a well-to-do
neighbor would come to the point OF popping
the question, Her request was not granted.
Tie line is drawn at illness.
