We have received word Of a most renatk.
nhle offer which IS to be made to women Nv
Tie Detiaedtor Of New York.
Taking the fact that next year begins a
new century, The Dciineaior offers to diafri.
butte Sl7,500 among 1901 women. The plan
is so ceverly arranged that a woman living m
small town or village, has just as good a
chance to win one Of these 1901 prizes as a
woman living in a city--because the prizes
are given for the number of suhserintions
secured in town in proportion to tie popu.
lau9n OF tia town, instead of being gwen
simply to those who send the largest list Of
su5scribers-which, of course, are most easily
obtained in big cities. Another clever feature
OF the plan is that all the cides and towns of
the United States and Canada have been ar.
ranged in seven classes The cities Of the
greatest population arc grouped in Glass /,
and as these cities are not very many. the
prizes offered are twenty-eght the high.
est prize being $500, and tho lowest s.. 90.
The total amount of prizes given away in This
ciass Is $1,000. Tho remaining smaller towns
and villages fall into SIX other classes. ard as
the number of towns II class increases. be-
cause, OF course, there are more small towns
than large ones, the amount Of prizes gwen
away to a class increases, 50 that in Class 1.
there will be $4,000 distributed among col
winners.
Furthermore, to everyone who fails to win
one OF the 1901 prizes there will DO paid an
extra commission on subscriptions. provided
they equal one out of every two hundred in
habitants Of the town from Which tie con-
te sr,nt sends them.
This is altogether very liberal offer, and
one which the famous CID Ieiineator is well
able TO make good. From our point of view,
VIC do not SEQ why such an offer needs to 10

arch, Has Great Liking for
Numismati ties. 4

Numismatists will be interested to
learn that the prince who has sue
ceeded King Humbert on the throne
of Italy is one of their guild. A pri-
vate collector says that Victor En-
manuel began two or three years ago
the compilation of a monograph en-
titled Corpus Sumorum liulicorum,"
con aiming IN account. with illusfra-
tions, of the coinage Of his native
country from the beginning OF his
tory 10 the present era. As there
have been at least 2so different mints
in operation at various times in the
little states and principalities into
which Italy has been divided. and the
number of separate issues have been
roughly estimated at $4,000. this ia
an undertaking which might well APP
pail even an enthusiast and expert.
# is understood that the prince him
self had collected for his cabinet some
5000 coins of all dates and super
scrip,ions. which had come TO him
from all parts OF ;he world. lie had
attracted to cooperation with him a
/ large number of private collectors
and many who were not willing 10
part with their treasures perma-
nently have consented to lend them
To him till they could be properly
classified in his work or have sent
him complete descriptions and photo

the FEE SYSTEM
la CITY Offices TO be Done Away With
Engineer, Clerk and Attorney
TO Have No Fees.

The ordinance presented TO council
and passed TO its second reading at
the last session, requiring city officers
to turn their fees over TO the CITY, is
an interesting one. The city clerk,
Mr.. knolleuberg. called the attention
of Mr. Q Neal TO the fact that there
were fees accruing to these offices
unnecessarily There are building
permit fees, market stall lease
fees, liquor license fees and
other things accruing to the Of
fee of the city clerk. Mr..
hnollenberg says he is perfectly
willing TO dispense with these, for
the general welfare, and can get
along very well with the salary alone
without the some $500 coming in
regularly from fees. There are also
fees coming into the Office of city
engineer The law requires that the
engineer report every three months
TO council the amount of fees received
in his department. These reports
have net been made. Whether it be
SO by reason of having no fees TO re-
port IS not known, but at any rate
the fee system Is 10 be abolished and
straight salary is to be substi-
tuted. The bill viii pass at the next

other fine one. and it was necessary

At the same time the city has no re-
