A CREDIT TO HIS RACE.

The announcement comes from Mem
phls, Tenn, that Robert X. Church,
believed 10 be one of the weatthiest
colored men IN the South has contTi
buted 81 900 for the entertainment of
the Confederate Veterans at their an
nual reunion in that city in May next.
Church was born a slave in Mississippi
and spent his early days on a Mississ
sppi steamboat, OF which his master
was the owner and captain. Here he
worked his way TO the position Of stew
ard of the boat, in which position he
was serving when his boat was cap
tured during the war and taken TO
Memphis. Here he became g popular
caterer and has emassed a large for
tune. When interviewed in regard to
his gift Church said he had made his
money in Memphis and he wanted to
see the city do itself credit in the enter
tainment of the veterans. He added:
"No persons on earth are more disposed
to help the former slaves than are the
veterans Of the Confederacy, those old
men who yet remember the Negro in
slavery" Hon. John Overtop, lead

Then Mr.. ConnOr retired and Harris
assumed the full duties IF his posi-.

grown until letter was finally sent
to the official advising that he resign
at once.
To this letter Harris made the state
ment, it is alleged, that he would not

continue at his official post. This was
followed yesterday By q letter in which

A NEW com TO BE COINED.

A NEW COIN TO BE COINED.
Uncle Sam, it. Is said, is to coin a new
3-cent piece. The new coin is to be of
nickel, and its radical difference from
all other coins with Uncle Sans mint
mark on them lies in the fact that it
will have hole in the center, says the
Chicago Inter Ocean. 1t is the SUPPOSE
ton that this hole in the center will en-
able the hurried handler of the coin to
detect its value by the sense of feeling
some such safeguard is considered neces-
sary for the reason that it is to be about
the size and weight of the present nickel
5-cent piece. The size of the center hole
in the proposed coin will be large enough
to make it merely a ring of metal this
hole being about one-half of the dame
ter of the coin. 1t will prevent one of
the difficulties which handlers of small
silver coins Were troubled with when the
metal money bags began to circulate aft
er the era of paper money.
The small coins which got into the
hands of children and some classes in the
remote districts, were treated as curiosi-
ties and great prizes. To secure their
safekeeping a method was to punch a
hole in them and tie them on a string
This destroyed the circulation value of
the coins, and dealers VINO subsequently,
took them III had to stand the loss, a fix
ed scale being finally arranged for dedtic-
ton for punched dimes, nickeIs or other
pieces The new piece can be strung
without injuring it,
1t is the general opinion of government
officials that there is no crying need for an
additional subsidiary coin of small value
and large bulk and weight, the scent
nickel piece and the copper 1-cent piece
being considered ample to meet the
wants of the people of the West Bank
people and treasury officials nave a very
lively conception Of the bother there is
in handling the present 1-cent piece, the
large institutions getting hundreds of
pounds of them sometimes in a day The
weight, as well as bulk, cuts quite a fig
ure in these cases, and the addition of
another intermediate between the 5-cent
piece and the cent piece, would, it is
believed, but add to the trouble Vault
room for storage purposes and draying
facilities would have to be provided in
proportion
The old Scent silver piece which was
coined several years ago did not meet
with popular favor, and it was found
impossible to l1eep it in circulation The
subtreasury people fear that the attempt
to put out g. new one will be a repetition
Of this experience.
In the West and Southwest the 1-cent
piece was slower in coming into favor
than in the East, and the coinage of the
new piece Is supposed to be to meet a
demand which the scent piece is too
large for and the 1-cent too small This
would Indicate. If it is correct, that the
Western people are relinquishing their
old idea that nothing less than 5 cents
was worth counting in q business trans
action.

PLENTY TO DO.


The Burbank potato has obtained a
standing for excellence that has brought
fame to it's originator a resident of Santa
Rosa, Cal, an enthusiast who devotes
his time and many fertile acres to the
scientific crossbreeding of fruits and veg
etabes. Notable among his later produce
tions in this line is q fruit which ne calls
the "plumcot," specimens of which have
lately appeared at fruit stands in the
cities. Neither apricot nor plum, it is said
to combine the best qualities of both,
being a cross between the apricot and
Japanese plum. Belonging TO the same
family, these fruits can be irterbred, and
the plumcot, beautiful, juicy and of
rare flavor is the result. A peach bear
ing his name is another late production
of Mr.. Burbank's skill and patience in
crossfertilization, fruit that it has TAX
en- him ten Years of careful experiment
to produce. He says his work consists
more in elimination than in creation; that
is to say, he discards thousand prod
ucts as worthless where he preserves and
propagates one as useful.
This statement furnishes an insight
into the tireless patience and skill re-
quired in the business. The results, how
ever. Justify the outlay OF time. labor
and money necessary to success in the
