SUBSIDIARY COINS.
Handsome Designs Adopted for
Halves, Quarters and Dimes.

The half and quarter dollar and dime
silver coins that have been familiar since
1885 will be retired from circulation after
January LIST next, and a new design will be
substituted after that date.
Director of the Mint E. 0. Leach, accom-
panied by his son, arrived at the Lafayette
Hotel last night from Washington. The
Director brought with him photographs of
the new and handsome designs for the new
COINS. which have been prepared by by Charles
ton of the new design marks the beginning
of q distnctively new era in the coinage of
this country. The present designs were
first adopted in 1885. and the law fixing them
enacted that no change should be made.
For some time, particularly after the re-
sumption Of specie payments in 1879, there
were a number of efforts made to change the
designs, but without avail.
During the session Of the last Congress
Director Leach undertook to secure the
passage of a law making changes that
would secure prettier coin. After some

NOVEMBER METEORS.
A Fine Display of Them Nay BE
=, Looked For Tonight.
The Radiant FONT Is in the Constellation
Leo-Notes Of Past Showers-The Lunar
Eclipse.

Shooting stars may be seen almost every
clear night, bat few intelligent persons now
adays require to be told that there are some
nights of the year on which they are more
than usually numerous. On rare oc, asons
about thrice in century-the shower OF
stars on the 18th Of November becomes so
brilliant as to attract the attention even Of
savage nations.
There is no branch of astronomy in which
more progress has been made than in the
matter of aerolt,s, meteors and shooting
stars. Thirty years ago the world knew
little or nothing about either comets or
meteors. Now it is perfectly established
that these objects are identical; that comets
are meteors and meteors are comets or the
dust of comets, which amounts to the same
thing.
The great November shower of 1866 was
proved beyond all doubt to be train Of
cosmical dust following in the wake OF
Temples comet The elements of the comet
and those of the meteor shower conceded
so closely that the conclusion as TO their as
ISOLATION was irresistible. 1t was confirmed
by the discovery that the meteor stream
which annually causes display OF shoot
ing-stars on the night of August 10th is
precisely Identical with the path Of the

BANTAM FIGHTERS.
Hawkins Easily Defeats DOnne-
gan in Eight Rounds.
A Smashing Contest Between Two Blacks at
the California Club-Professor Danny
Needham Is Engaged.

The bantam weight contest last evening
at the Occidental Athletic Club between
D0nnesan and Hawkins was easily won by
the latter in eight rounds.
In the first round Hawkins came within
an ace of winning the match. He knocked
his opponent down with a right-handrr on
the left cheek bone which opened a big
CASH DonneGan made several attempts
during the contest TO plant his right on
Hawkins jaw, but the latter was always
out of the way when Donnegan's gloves
were cleaviDg the air.
Hawkins proved himself TO be a clever
fighter ana youngster VINO should make a
good stand against any man in his class
barring Dixon. 1t is said that Mahouey is
anxious to fight Hawkins five rounds, but
ii is extremely doubtful if Mahoney could
whip Donnegan.
CALIFORNIA CLUB,
The California Club gave It's weekly en-
tertainment last evening. Alter several

effort Congress passed an act giving him
power to make one change In each of the
three coins. With this was the stipulation
that no other change should be made for a
period of twenty years at least.
AS soon as the authority was granted the
Director set about having the new design
prepared. Designer Barker went to work
upon design, and in a short time prepared
a number for the Directors Inspection.
One was selected, and after some improve
ments was adopted.
Superintendent o. c. Bosbyshell OF the
Philadelphia Mint said: Under the act
authorizing a change in the subsidiary col n
of the United States, designs were sub
mitted to the Director of the Mint from
numerous sources. While many of them
we're very pretty, all were found to be i'm
practicable. The designers CT the mint in
this city were then instructed to prepare
dies of different designs. Those which will
probably be selected for the new half
dollar, quarter and dime are a classic head
Of Liberty, instead of the sitting figure OF
her, on the diverse side Of all three coins,
and the coat-of-arms of the United States
on the reverse of the half and quarter.
"Dies containing these designs are now in
course of preDa ration at the mint in this
city. They will be finished in time for use
on January l, 1892, if the designs above de-
scribed are adopted.
These new dies will in my opiriOn make
