THE BOOK OF MORMON.
Hts Historical Information of the Sor
Known as "ImportaEt If True"

Its Historical Information of the Sort
known as important If True"
Out in Iowa a new kind of Mormon
asm has appeared, says the New York
Sun. The church of the Latter-Day
Saints is now old enough to indulge in
secessions and sects. For many years it
has had the Josephites, composed, ac-
cording to Brigham Young, Of such as
had "soured on Zion" They renounced
Young and all his works, particularly
polygamy; but the Whitmeritea It
seems, now go further, and rejecting
all later revelations, even Joseph
Smiths, as apocryphal, found their
theology on the bedrock Of the words OF
Mormon and the other prophets whose
books are collected under his name.
The time is auspicious for primitive
faith, polygamy being doomed II not
dead, and its practices discountenanoed
and disowned even by its former vote
ries.
Mormon was prophet inspired, &C
cording to the records attributed to him,
TO write an appendix to the Scriptures.
Unlike Mohammed, his actual exist
ence as historic character is accepted
only by those who are called after his
name. His work was written, or
craven, nearly ffteer centuries ago on
thin metallic plates, about eight inches
long by seven wide, held together by
three rings It was sealed up In the
year 420 A D., and deposited ON the

America should have been discovered
by Columbus, and De Witt Clinton
should be governor of New York, Q mail

Palmyra and the village Of Manchester.

ord, which comprises sixteen distinct
books, by different persons, was OF tho

A NumIsmArio MyTA.
Tho Famous Dollar of 1904 Never Had
Iepal Existence.

Tho Famous Dcllar of 1904 Never had
Legal Existence.
Col. Snowden, in his excellent His
tory of the Mint" says nothing of any
1s04 dollar. 1t seems pretty safe to as-
sumo that there never was any dollar OF
that year, and that the dollars exhibited
by collectors arc what are known as re-
Strilses. Many collectors know that
their specimens are not genuine, but
they allow their more ignorant friends
to believe that they are.
The late John 4. Raymond was led
to purchase an 1904 dollar in Chicago.
He paid $500 for it. When his collection
was sold it brought s.. 60, and would not
have brought that but for it's association
with the famous actor.
''It is my belief" said a representa-
tive of the Scott Stamp & Coin Com
pany of New York to the Illustrated
American, "that there never was any
1s04 dollar. That dies were cut in that
year similar in all respects save the
date to the dies Of 1903 is certain. 1t is
also certain that these dies were de-
stroyed In 1869. But no dollars or half
dollars were issued in that year, nor
were they issued at any time by gov
ernmental authority. The wonderful
stories that have been told about the
coinage Of the 1904 dollar in the year of
their date are old wives fables"
"Have you ever come across any 1904
dollars?"
"Once in awhile such dollar Is Of
fered to US, but it has invariably turned
out to be an imposition. The last figure
of the dates 1901 or 1902 or 1903 has been
cut out and four substituted Often
this Is done so skillfully as to deceive
even experts.
"a case in point happened not very
long ago. Our representative in London
cabled to us that an 1904 dollar had
been offered to him there. It had been
tested at the mint in London and they
believed it to be genuine. We cabled
back that we would pay e40 for It, pro-
vided it might be returned in case it did
not stand the examination we proposed
to submit it to- When the dollar ar
rived we found, as we had expected,
that the date had been tampered with" !"
"Do you believe that any of the dol
lars were ever coined?''
POSSIBLY, but only as restrikes.
Some employees of the mint may have
got hold of the dies and struck few
specimens. These specimens may have
got abroad. There are thirteen collect
ors who claim to have the genuine 1904
dollar in their possession. One Of them
brought $1,000 at auction. 1t is not
likely that it would ever bring that sum
again. AS l have never had these coins
submitted to me for inspection, Of course
! cannot pass upon their genuineness,
but it is quite possible they may be re-
strikes from the original dies"
