tected, would in time, and a very short time be left high and dry, and the river would be running on the north side of the Bridge and School ouse or both totally destroyed.
 We the undersigned property owners believe that we are able to take care of the river frontage from point of said bank in front of the James Scott House to the rip rap work east of the town, but it is too big a drain on our exhausted resources to repair said river bank at a point South and West of the James Scott House.
 We therefore respectfully ask that you appropriate the sum of Five Hundred Dollars ($5OO.) to be expended in making said river bank secure and safe, and your petitioners will ever pray. A. & B.

 In consideration of the fore going petition and of a personal examination of the conditions existing the Board finds that a great deal of public and private taxable property is endangered and if no effort made for protec- tion, entirely destroyed, entailine loss to the County in bridge and school house as well as individ- ual losses; and as matter of public policy, it is hereby ordered by the Board that the sum of Five Hundred Dollars be appro- priated for said purpose to be charged to the Road Fund; and it is further ordered that the dis bursements of this money be made by and under the direction of the Chairman of the Board.
 No further business appearing before the Board on motion it stands adjnurned.

 The mint at Philadelphia IS
Holbrook argus., 1904-09-03

The mint at Philadelphia is the only one in the United States which makes cents and nickels, and there will be record break ing productions of those coins from September to December. The mint will devote itself exclu- sively to this coinage, and 25,- 900, O,OOO$ will be turned out each month. In the last four months of the year the demand for sub- sidiary coin was so great that the 1OO.OOO,OOO$ will probably be exhausted by February. This has been a record making year at the mint. In one month more gold was coined than in any other similar time. Since Janu- ary 117,OOO,OOO$ in gold has been turned out, most of which has been forwarded to sub-treas- uries. In the vaults now are 1OO,OOO,OOO silver dollars held as collateral for silver certifi- cates.-Mining World
