How Bunner Made a Friend.

Laurence Hutton, writing in The

cumstances in which FL. G. Bunner
and he became acquainted:
Bunner and / would have moth
ing to do with each other for years.
1t was case of reciprocal DIR. Fell.
We did not like each other, and we
4aaither of US could tell the reason
why. We met constantly at the

looked at each other if we could
help it, and, of course, we never
spoke. We had many friends and
acqualntances in common, and very
often we escaped an introduction bv

elaborate mutual avoidance He al

Have They cornered the Copper centsq

Have They Cornered the Copper Cents?
A majority of the letters from the
workingmen in your columns claim that
gold has appreciated in value since 1878
and that this appreciation has been
caused by the wicked bankers who have
cornered all the gold. Has any one sug-
gested that these wicked bankers have
cornered all the cents? In 1878 it re-
quired 129 cents to purchase only one
ounce Of silver. Today it requires only
68 cents to purchase this same one
ounce of silver. In 1879 it required 1876
cents to purchase one bushel of wheat.
Today SO cents will purchase one bushel
OF wheat. And yet 100 cents will pur-
chase the same amount of gold today as
it could in 1878. Clearly, then, it is
this bad little copper cent that has
caused all our hard times and not the
gold. Let us compel all of our creditors
to accept five mills instead of ten for /

Double Standard Maple SMEAR.

The Mohawk valley was settled by
the Dutch, as your readers know. When
the country was new, Yankee peddlers
came through the settlements and pur-
chased the crop of maple sugar On one
occasion green Dutchman sold Yam
kee his maple sugar far below the mar
ket price, and his neighbors leased him
for being deceived. He said in reply /:
You wait and I will viz him next
year" The next spring he sold his crop
OF sugar to the same Yankee at the same
price. When his neighbors rallied him.
he said: l am no fool. made the san
that sugar was made from of half spring
water. F." The green Dutch farmer had
just as much common sense as those
cranks who assert that so cents worth
of silver and an equal amount of water
will make dollar worth 100 cents in
gold at the present standard. Fl. q. in

NgY,s EXECUTION
Absurd Attempts to Prove That Marshal
Ney Escaped to America.

AhsRrd Attempts to Prove That Marshal
Ney Escaped to America.
"A Family Record of Ney's Elk.
sCution. " written by Nine. Campan,
is contributed to The Century by a
relative of this lady, George Clinton
Genet of Greenbush, N. Y. Mr..
Genet in preparatory note, says;
An absurd attempt hns been made
recently to prove in published vol
time that Ney was not shot in 1916,
but escaped to America and became
R-schoolmaster in North Carolina,
where he lately died. An alleged
facsimile of his writing is given in
the book as we'll as one of the writ
ings of the old French oavalryman
who, it is alleged, when drunk on q
Dartain occasion, declared himself
10 be the Duke of Elohingen. The
writing which it is claimed is the
genuine writing of the marshal
seams doubtful when compared with
that known to be his, and the as
stunned similarity between that and
the writing of the old French soldier
of North Carolina is inoonoeivable
It is absurd to suppose that Ney
should have proclaimed himself to
be the Duke of Elohingen, since at
the time of his execution he was
Prince of Moskowa and no longer
Duke of Elohingen.
It is impossible, as is assert
ed in the book referred to, that Ney
should have consented to the su bier
fuge of being shot at with muskets
eharged with powder alone and aft

should have suffered himself to be

Ney, his third son, visited the Unit
