The commonest collector is the col

the dollar of 1904. 1t is one of the
rarest coins to be found in any col

less-so rare, in fact. that fortunes
have been made in the past by coun-
terfeiters who would coin the dollar
for the simple purpose of defrauding

There are certain facts about this
particular dollar not generally known
and which few people appreciate.

The Dubuque Market

A citizen, who visited in Dubuque
recently, was full of praise for the ex-
cellent town. He found number of
very large industries. running to their
full capacity and new industries be-
ing established, that would have been
welcomed by the largest cities. He
found good buildings. satisfactory
street car service and beautiful
parks, busy. bustling city. withalNa
pleasant place to live. And one of
the things that appealed to him was
the local market. Dubuque is the
only Iowa city that has maintained
its local market and hundreds OF
farmers come In on market days,
while there are many thousands OF
purchasers and the market forms an
interesting picture. But there Is an
eminently practical feature that ap.
peals more especially to a town like
Dubuque, which is prominently
city of workingmen. And that is,
that the prices on the market are
much cheaper than the grocers can
make them, and much cheaper than
Keokuk prices. He inquired and
found that where market gardeners
set up their stand in front of private
property they pay ten cents per day.
The stands around the city property
are auctioned off at the beginning of
the season and bring as high as S12
to SIS for the season. The grocers
are not permitted to buy until after
8 a. M. when the official closing of the
market takes place, the total stocks
being reserved for the retail buyer,
the consumer up to that time. There
l. no filth or refuse left on the streets,

PRINTER WAS
HANDLED ROUGHLY
siugsed and Thrown Into Quincy
Bay, Later to be Rescued by
Two Women.

QUINCY, ILL.,, Sept. 19.-very wild
reports were circulated about the city
last night, to the effect that man
had been slugged on the river front
and then thrown into the river to
drown
The police were notified between 6
and o'clock in the evening that a
man had been slugged on the east
shore of the bay. Detectives Bumster
and Scharnhorst went to the bay
shore and had some trouble in locat-
Ing the scene of the smuggling. They
finally called at boat house just
north OF the stock yards and there
learned that man had just been fish
ed out of the bay by two women.
The man turned out to be Denny
Rim, well known character, who at
one time was printer in this city.
1t seems according to Denny's story
that Mexican and an italian had
waylaid him, and after going through
MS pockets and finding nothing. slug
eed him and then pushed or threw
MIN into the bay.
Two women named Mrs. Naber and
mrs Flynn seeing that the man
would surely drown, If not rescued
went to Denny's rescue In row boat.
Ihey got out in the bay far enough
ior Denny to reach and catch the end
OF the boat, which he chung to until a
fait near shore was reached, when he
was pulled out of the water by the
Two women named.
Denny was very grateful to the wo-
men who had saved his life. He was
brought to the station. He was asked
\ ne could identify his assailants, but
sala that he could not, as all Mexicans
,ook alike to him. Denny is in the
naoit OF imbibing too freely at times.
ana was hardly capable of judging his
assaiiants Denny thought it quite a

had any Of the coin of the realm.

lars known to exist. The general i'm
preston is that they were coined in
1904 because the date is stamped up
on them. This is not the case. The
dollars we're minted In 1912.
At the recent numismatic conven-
ton held in Chicago the story of this
rare old coin is told. DIR. j. NJ Hen
derson Of Columbus, Ohio, who is said
to be one of the most eminent au-
thorities on the coins of the world
known, is president of the American
Numismatic Association, and 1t is
from him that the remarkable story
comes. There have been many ro-
mances woven about this dollar. The
last one was sold for $4,000 One is
that 100000 were originally minted and
were sent to Morocco to pay the
American troops engaged in Algerian
campaign, and that the ship which
| carried them was lost at sea. There
is another story that the ship landed
safely but that the sailors were killed
by the natives who punched holes in
the money and wore the dollars as
medals. According to DR.. Henderson,
1 neither of these stories is true Along
! in the early part of the nineteenth
century the bullion value of United
States dollar was greater than its
face value, and legislation was pend
ing to permit the treasury department
to reduce the amount of silver in the
dollars. The dies for the dollars OF
each year were made in the previous
year, therefore the die for the 1904
dollar was made in 1903 After the
die had been made, the law was pass
i ed reducing the amount of silver to
be put into dollars, and the dies were
never used. In 1912 Matthew Stick
ney of Massachusetts, who owned a
very rare collection of coins, induced
the treasury officials to mint for him
4 a dollar from the original die, which
4 had been preserved. In return, he
presented THE department with GER
tain rare coins which they were ex.
ceedingly anxious to possess. 1t is
I probable that other dollars were coin
ed at the same time, for twelve are
known to be in existence The dies
were destroyed Immediately after.
This puts an end to the romantic
stories which have been in circulation
in regard to this fine old coin. and
robs 1t of that lustre Of romance
which has chung about it. It also de-
termines the date when it was minted
and shows why there are SO few in
existence, for II was never intended
by the department that the dollar
should be used as other dollars, but
only as a keepsake or souvenir of q
die which had for SO long remained
unused among the archives of Uncle
Sans mint.

GREEN BAY LAND
SHOULD Be SAVED.
This is the Opinion Of w. E. Blake of
Burlington Who Makes Foreeful
Plea for Drainage
System.
IT WOULD BE A CRIME
The Chances for an AmicabIe Ar.
ransement are Supposed to be
Getting Little
Brighter.

w. E. Blake, citizen of Burlington,
says it would be crime to submerge
$500 acres of fine Green Bay land.
He writes a communication regarding
the Green Bay proposition and in it
says:
There is little to be said by me in
"a public way on the subject The
danger which Fair play" seems to
foresee is in reality near at hand. The
Lee county petition for drainage dis
trict Is signed, ready to be presented
to the Lee county board of supervis-
ors. / have fully explained to large
number of Des Moines county land
owners, both at the meeting at Con-
cordia and also to such as have visit
ed my Office, that their only protect
ion from this danger is a joint drain
age district including in one district
all these Green Bay and Skunk river
low lands; and now that the Power
Company has offered to help the land
owners to the extent of paying one
half of the entire cost, it would seem
that to not accept this offer and go
forward and join in the petition for a
joint drainage district, would be very
unwise in action.
1t is of course, the land owners
business. He must decide for himself
whether or not he will preserve his
land or allow 1t to be overlooked.
desire personally to assure all land
owners in that vicinity that the Pow
er Company has no desire whatever to
acquire any of these lands.
1t is certainly self-evident that these
lands will not be marketable with the
present state of uncertainty prevail
ing, they will never be saleable again
until this water menace is solved by
some efficient protection. Should the
Des Moines county land owners in the
Skunk river bottom let this opportun-
! ity go by, they will force the Power
Company to exercise it's only legal
remedy, viz condemnation for flow,
age purposes, which simply means te
dious and costly litigation for the re
sisting farmers, a good thing for law
yers, but mighty bad thing for
swamp land owners.
! Let us solve this question amicably
Mr.. Fair Play, by you land owners
keeping and improving your own land
by levee and drainage. accepting the
Power Company's offer, or through
your board of supervisors negotiating
with the company for better one, il
you think this one inequitable; thus
you will save your land and your
money too and yourselves reap all the
benefits of enhanced value.
