USE OF GOLD IN ARTS.
Bill Introduced in House to Ascertain
How Much Coin of United states
Is Thus Used.

Owing to the inability of the govern
ment to determine how much gold is
used in the arts, and for other reasons,
Representative Shafroth, of Colorado,
has introduced n novel bill, the purpose
of which is TO protect the coins of the
United States from destruction. The
measure makes it unlawful for any per-
son TO willfully melt, mutilate, clip or
destroy any coin minted by the govern
ment. To do so will be a misdemeanor,
punishable by fine of 500, or 90 days
Imprisonment, or both.
Under the present laws it is impos-
Sible TO tell how much gold is used in
the arts" said Representative Shafroth,
''as when a goldsmith desires to use
some of the yellow metal he simply
melts $50 gold piece instead of buying
the bullion. 1t should be unlawful to
decrease the circulating medium in
this manner. Every time a coin is melt
ed 1t becomes necessary for the govern
ment to replace it, or the circulating
medium will be decreased to the amount
Of the coin so destroyed.
This is an unjust expense to the gov
ernment, and it would be just as easy
for goldsmith to purchase the bullion,
which would cost no more. The pur"
pose of the measure is also TO punish
those who mutilate silver coins"

MRS. CISCO LOSES HER CASE
New York Court of Appeals Settles
Question OF CoIored Pupils in
schools.

The New York court of appeals has
affirmed, with costs, the order of the
lower courts in the case of Elizabeth
Cisco (colored) against the school
board Of the borough of Queens, New
York city. Mrs. Cisco's children were
sent to the common or public schools,
but admission was refused them on ac-
count of their color, and they were or
dered to the separate, or colored,
school. She went to law and was beaten
in all the lower courts. She then ap-
pealed to the highest court In the state,
which gave decision against her, The
court says:
1--WE find nothing in the constitution
which deprived the school board of the
proper management of the schools in
its charge, or from determining where
different classes OF patrons should be
educated, always providing, however,
that the accommodations and facilities
were equal for ALL"
