| CENT PIECES.
The Great Demand For Them and the
Reason Of IL.

Ever since August last there has been
an exceedingly heavy demand ON the
United States treasury for cent pieces
This demand Is not confined to any one
commercial center, but comes alike from
all sections of the country. Treasury Of
ficials attribute it TO the growing Gus
tom in dry goods establishments and
prices from round figures, which prac-
tice naturally requires a good supply Of
pennies tor making change Prior TO its
adoption the cent piece cut very
small figure in ordinary shopping trans
actions.
Although the demand has been eener-
al for the last two months, it has been
conspicuously heavy Of late in the case
Of Chicago and Sc. Louis. and the the
Dry is advanced that this special demand
is due to the availability IL the cent
piece for the purchase # local newspa
pers. The stock Of pennies in the sub
treasures at Chicago and 81. Louis was
nearly exhausted a week ago, and /,
was found necessary TO call upon an
other subtreasury for assistance in that
respect.
The treasury department is doing it,
best to meet the demand, and for tf-
last two months the mint at Philadel
phia has kept three presses constantly
in operation for the exclusive coinag,
Of cent pieces. The daily output ha
been l50, 900 pieces. Of the value d
1880. The government apparently de
rives profit Of 81, 200 day on thi
coinage, the seigniorage being at th'
rate Of nearly so per cent Of the fac'
value Of the coins. This profit disap
pears, Of course, when the coins are no
deemed. 1t is estimated that there ar
$50, 100000 | cent pieces outstanding

"E P1uribus Cnum- on Our Coins.

According TO the United States mint
officials, tho words, E Pluribus Unum,"
as they appear on our coins, are there
without the sanction Of law. The legend
first appeared upon a copper coin
struck" at the Newburg ". Y. mint
in the year 1886. The United States
was very young at that time and could
not afford the luxury Of a mint, so a
private individual Of the name Of
Brasher opened the Newburg coming es-
Establishment with the intention Of turn
ing out money Of the realm for all
corners. Exactly how the words "E
Pluribus Unum" came to be used as a
motto is not known, but one thing Is
certain. the Brasher copper coin bear
ing that legend and the date Of 1856 is
the most valuable metal disk ever mint
ed on this continent, being worth about
o., 900, or twice as much as the famous
rare dollar Of 1904.
Some time after coming his famous
copper with the odd Latin motto as
above described Brasher tried his hand
on q large sized goldpiece. producing
the coin known to the numismatists a.
"Brasher's twenty" The Brasher
twenty" was not q $40 goldpiece.
however, forit lacked u Of weighing
enough, but Of late years it has become
very scarce and valuable because Of the
fact that the legend inscribed upon il
reads "Unum E Pluribus" instead Of
"E Pluribus Unum." This coin Is now

A Story Of Dumaa.

The death Of Alexandra Dumas recalls
a story relating to his birth which in
Paris has become historical:
When the elder Dumas was still a
very young man. he was wretchedly
poor. He hired garnet in cheap Paris
lodging house. The first night he was in
the house he was cropping his way up
stairs when suddenly his match went
out. He stumbled along in the darkness
flight by flight until, just as he reached
the eighth floor, little sewing woman
who had been burning the midnight tai.
low opened her door and, holding her
candle above her head, said:
lyon are the new lodger. aren't you
! will show you the way to your room. -
Dumas moved from the lodging house
very soon after that. and the little sew
ing woman went with him. Subsequent
ly she became the mother Of Alexandra

At the regular monthly meeting Of
the section Of astronomy and physics Of
the New York Academy Of Sciences,
Professors Rees and Jacoby and Charles
Post read papers attacking the alleged
discoveries Of lines and canals on the
planet Mars. The attacks were priDci-
pally directed against Percival Lowell
Of Boston, who while at Flagstaff, A.
T.. claimed to have seen the same lines
and canals discovered on the planet by
Signor SchiaparelH in Italy. After the
reading there was a general discussion,
and the conclusion arrived at was that
these people were romaDcers and not as
tronomers. The academy therefore dis.
carded the theory Of canals and lines on
the planet Mars until such time az they
could be seen more plainly, or at least
by a greater number Of persons.

Christina of Spain Chosen to Judge 10
tween Nati0ns.
The queen regent Of Spain has been
agreed upon by the government OF %
lombia. Ecuador and Peru to act a. ar
bitrator in the delimitation Of the bound
aries Of those countries.
The remarkable feature Of the news
in the above cableeram is that a queen
is selected to be arbitrator.
1t is the first time, it is asserted. that
q woman has been chosen to settle an
International dispute Of this character
and Importance.
Maria Christina, queen regent OF
Spain. once lodged when asked to be
an arbitrator. But then the dispute
was between two women, the wife Ct
the speaker Of the cortes and the wife
Of the minister Of justice, who both
claimed the same seat III the cortes gal

The prime minister declined to settle
so important matter OF etiquette
whereupon the husbands went with the
case to the queen. She Is short sighted
and raising her tortoise she'll lorgnette
to her eyes she surveyed the contestants
for q time. Then she feigned illness
and withdrew. A few days later she
went into the country for her health.
Since she has been regent Spain has
had more real peace than in many years
before. Her position has been most try
ing, but she has maintained 1t heroical'
~ and successfully By winning SYM
patty she has accomplished what
shrewd, powerful statesmen failed to
do-maintained an appearance Of order
in one Of the most FESTIVE countries OF
Europe.
Simple in her manners, domestic in
her tastes. generous in her disposition,
she has firmly installed herself IN the
affections Of her people,
She is said to be the only sovereign

But she does everything differently
from any other monarch. Slowly she
has been relaxing the proverbially rigid
