The slaughter of the deer around
the Garlic river is alarming To these

Brown makes the same assertion, and
adds that the wolves are becoming a

Both trappers have tried TO Kill
wolves this winter by the use OF

RARE AMERICAN COINS.
Some for Which Numismstists Pay
HIGH Prices.

O~''N ~ ff''N'' 'fsf'''Nt'+
High Prices.
There is probably no more competent
numismatist than the Enelish uthori-
~. J. +. Blacker. who. in "a recent num-
Der OF London Opinion. writes Of ear
ly United States coinage. A. many in
quiries concerning our carly coinage
comes To the questions and answers
columns Of The News. this informa-
ton may be of benefit TO some OF thest
anxious inquirers. The article notes
that President Washington on Noyem-
Der g. 1872. i'm an address to Congress
said: There has been a small 5esin-
ming i'm the coinage Of half dimes.
Some of these half dimes have sold al
SIG 10 $50 each and are now held at a
higher price. Twenty years ago dol
lar minted in 1894 sold for 1925 ana one
of 1904 for $50. The 1904 dollars are
exceedingly scarce. one has even sold
for $1,000. The scarcity OF this issue,
is accounted for it is said by the
sinking Of a vessel bound for China,
having on board almost the entire
mintage OF 1904 for use IN the China
trade To take the place OF the spanish
milled dollar Gold coins, eagles worth
In face value. SO, were first nirtcd
In 1895. These have advanced IN
value, but not nearly as much as The
carly half eagles.
Mr.. Blaeker says the first of these
that he can find has the legend wash
ington and independence, 1888" which
was six years before Washington was
elected President. The next appears TO
be OF English ORIGIN, the cent OF 1891,
which was an enterprisng effort of
Matthey Boulton to please the Ameri-
cans and TO secure the mintinS of
coins. Boulton failed in this. for the
Philadelphia mint was established IN
1892, and the event was signalized by
striking the Washington naked bust
cent with the legend, Washington
President, l792."
The old "bar cent which preceded
this. was made i'm Birmingham, Eng
land, by Thomas Wyon. This coin
passed as money i'm New York in No,
Yember 1875, and is now very rare. on
the diverse it has the letters L. :. 4.
in a monogram. and on the reverse
thirteen horizontal bars.
When, in 1894, the emblem proposed
for the reverse Of the silver dollar were
under discussion a member Of Congress
from the south opposed the adoption OF
the eagle as unsuited TO represent ma
tion whose institutions were wholly in
imical to monarchial forms Of govern

remarked that perhaps "a GOOSE might
