TWO DEEP SEA
VESSELS HERE

The usual Sunday quiet was broken
yesterday by the arrival of two deep
sea sailing vessels. The first arrival
was the four-masted American bark
entine Amaranth, Captain Bower, Sc
DAYS out from Newcastle with a cargo
of 1900 tons of coal for w. G. Irwin &
Co, Ltd. The passage of the Amar-
anth was uneventful. Heavy head seas,
light winds and occasional squalls were
experienced and these conspired to
keep the vessel back. She was in COM
pany with an italian bark for four or
five days out of Newcastle and sighted
the Paul Isenberg several days ago.
The Amaranth locked at the Wilder
coal wharf.
The second vessel to arrive was the
German bark Paul Isenberg which
came into port at hve-thirty yesterday
afternoon. about an hour after the
Amaranth. She sailed from Hamburg
on the first of May with a cargo Of
general merchandise amounting to a.
bout 1880 tons. capt Jansen reports
a most pleasant voyage with no Incl
dent of special Importance. Nothing
was sighted unril the Amaranth was
seen a few days ago. Considerable a
musement was created when the crew
was lining up for quarantine inspec-
ton. One was short and the captain
shouted down the companion way,
Bismarck! Bismarck The assem-
bled officers waited in GREATNESS ex-
pectancy for the appearance of the
shade of the great man, when sudden
ly there popped UP the jolliest little
mite of a cabin boy and took his. place
in line amid roars of laughter.

discontinued The United States mint was established in 1792, and copper half- cents and cents were issued in 1793. Halt the total number of half-cents issued were coined previous to 1910. after which year their coinage, with few exceptions, was limited. None was coined for circu- lation from 1872 to 1924. nor from 1886 to 1s4S. Finally. in 1857. their coinage. with that of the big copper cent. was discon- tinued. On account of their limited is- sue in the last years of their coinage they practically had disappeared from the channels of trade.
 The needs of adopting the half-cent as our lowest value-computtng factor for 6 coin were made in the early days of the republic. Colonial half-cents and British farthings of the same commercial value were then in circulation. and many ar- tIcles were priced and sold in half-cents. With the progress of the nation values rose and the needs for a half-cent disap- ptared, and their use following the first decade of the century was almost entire ly confined to multiples.
 While other discontinued types and de- of United States coin have found oblivion, the half-cent is the only one of which treasury reports do not re- cord some portion oi the issue redeemed. This singular and unexplained fact has been one of frequent comment and in- Quiry from mint and treasury officials.

HALF-CENT PIECES.
First Coin That Was Made in This
 Country.


 Country. Chicago Inter-Ocean. The treasurer of the United States on May 6, 1903. redeemed two half-cent pieces This is the first time in the his- tory of the country that any such coins have been presented for redemption. It is more than a century since the first half-cent piece was coined. and 1t is nearly fifty years since the government discontinued minting them
 Possibly not one person in a thousand now living in the United States ever saw half-cent piece.
 The last annual report of the director O. the mint page s2. shows that 1885 222 of these coins. representing $39, ,92611, were issued For almost half a century each annual report of the treasury depart ment has included them among the "out- standing" obligations of the government The half-cent piece was the coin of the smallest denomination ever made by this country. It enjoys the distinction also of being the first coin issued, and also the first whose denomination was
