Coin by Millions OF Pounds.

London.-A wealth of figures such
as would deeply impress even a Croe-

nual report of the deputy master
and comptroller of the mint. Among
the items it appears that the gold
coins received and weighed at the
Bank OF England during the year
amounted to SO 392,0S5 pieces. as
compared with 54,S53.8S2 in 1900
The percentage of light sovereigns
was lower than in the previous year
while that Of half-sovereigns showed
slight rise
The demand by the Bank of Eng
land for silver coin amounted to
more than double that of 1900, and
reached a figure, namely, 1,O65, 400
pounds-which has not been exceed
ed since 1889 and 1890. OF the total,
40, 300 represented shillings.

ever since The record of her birth
Is preserved in neighboring monas-

She is the daughter of a peasa nj

the custom of her country, where wo-
men are employed in all sorts of man.

The events of her life up to the
time when she attained the age OF
80 are far more distinctly impressed
on her mind than the happenings OF
the last forty-six years.
Her son. Tobor, following the fam
lily tradition, has also worked in the
fields as a peasant all his life, but
he has also taken part in various
wars and rebellions in the Balkan
peninsula. He is not quite SO fresh
and vigorous as his mother. although
he Is still capable OF doing good
days work and enjoying such small
luxuries of life as pipe and the
strong spirits drunk by the Bulgar-
Ian populace.
The Oldest woman in the world is
said to enjoy fairly good eyesight and
good hearing, and she Is able to walk
without support. She lives on PEN

scendants, who number more than
