Louisiana Purchase Cold Dollars.

The First National Bank has
received from st. Louis some Of
the late coins issued from the
United States Mint at Philadel-
phia to commemorate the louisiana
Purchase Exposition and known
as the Louisiana Purchase Gold
Dollar, which have been pronounced
bynumismatists the fnestexamples
Of modern coming art This coin
age, which will live as a metallic
memorial of the great Worlds
Fair of 1904, was provided for by
specific Act of Congress, which
also limits their issue to 250,000
pieces. The entire coinage has
been delivered direct to the Elk
position Company and represents
part of Governments general
appropriation of $5,000,000 for the
Exposition.
These specially designed coins
are OF two types: two obverses hav-
ing the same reverse; 10000 bear
and excellent likeness of Thomas
Jefferson-the Government father
OF the Louisiana Purchase. This
portrait of Jefferson, which is
pronounced the best known, was
taken from one of the medals in
the Mint cabinet, the original of
which was engraved by John Reich,
who, for some years during the
Jefferson period, was connected
with the Mint. The other 125,000
present the profile of William Nc
klnley, the Government father of
the louisiana Purchase Exposition.
The Mckinley portrait was also
taken from a Mint cabinet medal,
Tor which the late president gave
special si'tings to Mint Engraver
Charles E. Barber, and which is
considered by the late presidents
friends his best portrait.
surrounding these profile por-
traits is the inscriptions: United
states OF America" The reverse
Is inscribed: louisiana Purchase
Exposition St. Louis which
surrounds One Dollar 1903

Smoking his pipe Of cob,
And pitched II boqnet AZ his lonely self
On having completed the job
The job consisted In driving drift
Through very hard rock indeed
But he felt recompensed for all his hard licks,
BY cutting beautiful lead.

Kinley's favorite flower and was worn
on that day in memory Of the lamented
president.
President Mckinley was seldom seen
in Washington without E carnation In
his buttonhole. His favorite among
the carnations was the red or carmine.
He wore one of these in preference to
the white, as rule, and when he
wanted to show his pleasure at meet
ing some one he invariably gave car
nation, most frequently a red. All
over the country to-day are women
who have in various states of preser-
walton carnations given to them by
the president when they called with
their husbands or others to visit him.
The president liked little girls, and it
was pleasure to him to pin carna-
tons on their little dresses or give
them one each to take away in their
hands. No honor could have been
higher to these fortunate ladies and
misses than this. There were times
when bevy Of school girls would call
at the white house. President Nc
Kinley would see that he could not
give them all carnations, as he did not
have that many on his desk, but q
number of times some of the more
courageous girls would ask for the
flowers. These girls got what they
asked for, with a charming smile in
addition.

quite urgent in her demands. There
was nothing to tell her, but to satisfy
her one of the commission finally vol
unteered the information that they
had decided to include Jesus Lover of
My Soul" in the church hymnal. The
members of the commission believe
the young lady wrote the STORY" cor
rectly, but an enterprising city editor
either not believing the story of much
value in that shape, or typographical
error, made it read that the commits
sion had decided mot" to include the
popular hymn. The item created q
terrible stir in church circles, and
brought down upon the heads of the
innocent members of the commission
the wrath of the church in general,
and entailed vast amount of cor
respondence on their part.
The story fully explained the desire
of the commission to remain out of
print, and they did so until they had
assurances that similar "error"
would not occur in any of the Wash
ington papers. The story cleared the
atmosphere, and afterwards the COM
mission was more cordial in its treat
ment of the local press.

who makes friends with whoever he
meets. 1t Is . trait characteristic Of
the life he led for a number of years
as a rowing newspaper reporter and
printer During those years he picked
up large acquaintance throughout
the southern and western states in
which he has written fire and police
reports, done" local politics, and all
the various odds and ends that fall to
the lot of the general reporter in daily
Journalism.
Bede was originally republican,
then in 1888 he Topped over to the
democrats and voted for Cleveland,
going back to the republicans again at
the time of Bryan's nomination in Chi
cago. 1t is rather coincident that Bede
should have won fame by one speech
in which Col. Bryan figured promi-
nently, and that Col. Bryan should
have gained fame in speech-"The
Cross of Gold"-which drove Bede out
of the democratic party and sent him
onto the stump for Mckinley. Such
are the strange ways of politics.
Bede is by no means novice at
politics, though he is not proverbial
Office holder. Cleveland appointed him
United States marshal for Minnesota
in 1892, but he resigned within a year,
and remained private citizen until
elected to congress last year. He is
originally from Ohio, and was born on
a farm in Lorraine county in that
state in 1856.
