RETURN OF A COIN.
silver Half Dollar, After "a Tour Last
Ing Twenty-Five Years, Comes
Back to It's Owner.

Twenty-Five years ago, while work
ing in the blacksmith shop of J. w.
Shelter at Stoughton, Wis, Harvey
Hawman, now eN-chief of police Of
Sioux City, stamped the letters 81.
w. S." his employers initials, on a
half dollar. That same coin the
other day was handed to him over the
counter of his fish market in Sioux
City. The coin had been worn smooth
by constant handling during the quar-
ter OF century. In that period of
time it had jingled in the pockets of
perhaps thousands of persons and
travelled miles and miles across the
country and back, only to land finally
in the hands of the man who had
marked it with letters of an unmis-
taxable cbdracter. Never was man
more completely surprised than was
Mr.. Hawman when he saw the
marked coin. In spite of the fact that
he had not thought of it in the
quarter of century since he last
saw it, he recognized it at once, and
his mind flashed back over the quar-
ter of century. He proposes to
keep it now.
