A bank clerk the other day, VINO had
just paid a young woman a twenty dollar
gold piece, was asked by her, after she
had looked closely at the coiu, as is the
habit of womcn:-"What does this let
ter L on this coin mean?" The teller
did not know. A young man who
heard the question ascertained what the
letter "I4 meant. From 1850 to 1854
every coin twenty dollar gold piece
minted bore the letters 81. B. L."
They stood for the name Of the design
er of the stamp, J, B, Longacre. The
coinoge of these twenty dollar gold
pieces began in 1850. In 1919 two
test coins we're struck from the die as
experiments. One Of these is now in
the coin cabinet of the Mint. Five
thousand dollars has been offered for il
and refused. Where the other one is,
no one knows. Since 1864 all twenty.
dollar gold pieces coined bear the initial
of the designer of the coin, Longacre.
It is the letter az and may be found
under the last feather on the Indians
head The very small letter I'M" on
the neck of the Goddess of Liberty on

signer Of the die, an Englishman,
named Morgan D. Commercial Gazette.

By Steam Across the Andes.


One Of the most remarkable enter
prises of the period is the great railway
over the gigantic chain Of the Andes
from Valparaiso and Santiago, Chilli, to
the city of Buenos Ayres. 1t is to be a
transcontinental line, passing across
South America from the Pacific to the
Atlantic ocean and will have length
of about 1000 miles It's construction
is now proceeding under the direction
Of engineers from the United States,
who will be compelled to surmount tre-
mendous difficulties interposed by ma
ture. The chief Of these will be the
passage Of the Andes, which between
the Argentine confederation and Chilli
rise to the height of 10000 feet and
rarely fall below $4,000 The line will
also pass through much hostile Indian
country and its builders have before
them an undertaking even more diff
cult and dangerous than the construc-
ton of the Union and Central Pacific
railways.

tend the Local Union of the Keno
sha and Racine Counties Young
Peoples Societies of Christian En-
deavor, which was held at Somers,
April 4, 1889.
At 1890, the time appointed for
opening the morning session, many
Endeavorers from various parts of
both counties were at hand, ready to
enjoy the meeting to which they had
been looking forward. The conven-
ton opened with a devotional SER
vice, conducted by Mr. Hammond,
the Secretary of the kencsha Y. NJ.
c. A. The keynote Of the day, CIV
en- in this service, was "the power of
faith and prayer. References
found in Phil. 4, IS, and Matt. IT,
u. The interest Of those present in
Christian work was manifested by
the nature Of the testimonies and
prayers which came without any of
those ominous pauses. The good
people of Somers, thinking the guests
enjoyed remaining together during
intermissions, provided a bountiful
repast at Bain's Hall for all present.
This was heartily partaken of by the
sixty or more, friends who came
from a distance.
Music and prayer preceded the af-
ternoon business meeting. Two So
cieties, one from Racine, Rev. Mr..
Percival, pastor, and the Franksville
society, Rev. Mr.. Evans, pastor,
joined the Union.
Three papers were then presented
"The Importance of the Y. P. S, c..
E. Movement" by Rev. D. E. Evans;
"Dihiculties and how to meet them"
by Miss Kate Schaffer; and "The
Y. P. S. c. E. from an Outsiders
Standpoint" by Mr.. L. M. Thayer.
Each paper was followed by active
discussion, which revealed the fact
that these meetings are of great val
ue as so many helpful ideas are ex-
changed. The first paper was full
of good words for the Society as it
now is, as the last was of good sug-
gestions Of what it may yet be.
After supper had been served the
guests betook themselves to the
homes in the community which had
been thrown open to welcome them,
and where a pleasant social hour
was spent. The evenings exercises
consisted of song service, conduct
ed by Mr.. Lund, a stirring address
on "Character,' by Rev. Mr.. Bray,
and the questions of the query box
answered by Rev. Mr. Percival. The
music was furnished by the choirs of
the societies of the Union. Rev.
Mr.. Pollard, the president, spared no
pains to make the meeting a success
and his efforts were not in vain.
The next Union will be held in Ra-
cine. K. L. S.
