100 lions, while Jackasses number not

music is the donkey's mellifluous bray.

From the Kansas City Journal: l.
E. Altwein Of ST. Joseph. Mo-. is now

yer dollar. The value Of this rare coin,
only three Of which are known to be
in existence, is $1,000. Mr.. Altwein
secured II from an Illinois man, with
whom he has been negotiating for a
long time. II will be a valuable ad-
dition to his collection. which is con-
sldered one OF the best in the United
States. The history which attaches to
the dollars coined in 1904 is peculiarly
interesting. Out OF the 1000 which
came out Of the United States mint all
but a few disappeared in a lump.
In the year 1898 the United States
went to war with Algiers. The DIFF
ferenees were finally settled by the
United States agreeing to pay $500. 900
for the liberation OF American sea
men who had been imprisoned. and
$23, 900 for the promise OF Algiers TO
leave merchantmen alone. In 1901
war broke out between Tripoli aud
the United States. In 1904. this last
war being then still in progress. the
United States frigate Philadelphia was
seized off the coast of Tripoh- On
