THE SILVER DOLLAR.
Many Changes In Its Design Since Il
Mae Eirm% lesHa1

Many Changes In Its Design Since IL
Was First Issued.
The silver dollar has undergone
great many changes since 1t was put
In circulation in 1894. On the face of
the first dollar there was stamped the
head Of young woman turned to the
right and with hair flowing. as IL she
was in a gale of wind But in 1895
congress came to her relief and ordered
her hair to be tied up with a bit of
ribbon. The fifteen stars which ap-
peared on the first dollar were after
this reduced to the original thirteen In
recognition Of the number Of states.
In 1886 the design was again chang.
ed, and the dollar bore the figure of a
woman dressed in a flowing garment
The designer forgot, however, to put
In the thirteen stars, and the coin was
soon called in, the new design having
the woman surrounded by stars. Her
air was defiant and stiff looking, and
in 1888 dollars were issued which were
more artistic in treatment. The first
dollars bearing the motto, "In God We
Trust" were coined in April, 1864, and
In 1873 the era of the trade dollar be-
gan, lasting just FIVE years.

Until 1870 it was against the law
and sacred custom for any subject to
look at the emperor Of Japan. His
political advisers and attendants saw
only his back When he first left the
palace the shutters of all the houses
had to be drawn, and no one was per-
mitted in the streets. Even today,
when the emperor has the privilege of
driving through the streets like one
iof his subjects, It is not considered
quite proper to cast a glance at him.

Taft, in granting executive clemency

sentence for murder in Leavenworth
prison, brought to light sordid story
about a pioneers life along the In.

Jones. after serving a two-year- SEN
tence in Texas Jail, returned to the
then Indian territory to find his home
wrecked by his cousin, William.
There were reconoiliations and the
family moved to the wilderness along
the Red river. One night, early in
1874, William Jones was shot and
killed in the cabin the family occu-

ANTITRUST LAW ISlVALID
1T HAD BEEN ATTACKED AS UN.
CONSTITUTIONAL BY DE-
PENDANTS
INDICTMENTS ALSO FLAWLESS
GRAND JURY COULD NOT HAVE
BEEN MORE SPECIFIC IN
CHARGES, SAYS COURT

Chicago, May 1.-THE demurrers Of
the Chicago packers in the Beef
Trust" cases, were overruled today by
Judge Carpenter in the United States
district court.
In his railing, Judge Carpenter de-
clared that the Sherman antitrust
law, which had been attacked by the
packers, is constitutional. He also
held that the indictments, charging ].
Ogden Armour and other packers with
violating it's provisions, is valid.
AS to the stability of the indict-
ments as whole, Judge Carpenter
said:
81 do not see how the grand jury
could have made the charge more de-
finite. The whole plan, that Of the
packers as alleged in the indictment.
from its inception, appears plainly to
be one to eliminate competition an a
factor in fixing prices among the three
groups of defendants, beginning with
the agreement not to bid against each
other and in fact to bid exactly the
same amounts for like grades OF live
stock. fixing uniform selling price
and ending with an opportionment
among themselves OF the total bust
ness done.
'T am of the opinion that the facts
stated in the indictments show clear
y plan or scheme organized and
put in operation by the defendants,
he ultimate purpose of which was to
control the production, sale and dis
of fresh meat throughout a
arge section of this country and. as
Incidental tc that control, to lower
'rices to the producer Of the raw ma.
erial and rise prices to the consumer
# the finished product. While the
acts do not disclose an absolute mon
poly, yet the large percentage of the
BUSINESS which they control, indicates
hat they intend to acquire at least
commercial monopoly"
Judge Carpenter said he did not
hink the trial could be held before
all.
