old Coin
Is Found In Mortar Of Canal
'''''L Lock At Newark

Fred Mikesell is carrying an old
English coin made in 1926 and which
has peculiar history, says the New
ark American Tribune.
In the recent destruction OF old
Lock No. . of the Ohio Canal to make
way for the Fitzsimmons restaurant
the coin was ofund as the old en-.
graved plate was removed from the
lock. The coin was found in the NOR
tar under the engraved stone by a
workman by the name of Coggtns, so
Mr.. Mikesell says.
The coin In question Is about the
size and value of the present half dol
lar, and Is made of purer silver than
modern coinage. 1t bears on one side
the face Of George the Fourth, with
the date as above stated and an en-.
craving, A local banker says that the
coin Is one OF the English coins OF the
time and Is equivalent, In exchange, to
our American half dollar. On the re-
verse of the coin is the English coat of
arms with two other Inscriptions In
Latin. The edges of the coin are more
modern than old coins as rule and it
Is "mllled" on the edge and rim. 1t Is
somewhat battered In the effort to dis
lodge IT. from the mortar, and some
what affected by the chemical action
nf the lime. II Is otherwise we'll pre-
served.
II was probably placed in the NOR
tar by either one OF the officers whose
names adorned the stone or by work
man engaged on 1t. IL 1t was placed
there by the latter 1t was rather pre-
tontious corner stone gift by u laborer
of that early day, as wages on the
canal were 30 cents per day with meals
and whiskey.
The coin is well known fnd nu-
merous In numismatic collections in
this country and on the continent 1t
is valuable az relic because ii was
placed there in 1928 by ono OF the
workmen or engineers on remarka-
bic piece of engineering which Is be-
ing allowed to go into disuse and de-
struotlon 1t may have been the con
tributlon of a days wages by an EN-
ploye or u small gift to history by one
of the engineers of that early day,
whose accuracy and skill and faithful
ness In their work is still admired and
remembered

Apropos OF the recent marriage, in
Chicago, of Mrs. Henry G. Pirrung. of
Columbus, to Arthur g. Ellis. of Mil
waukee, the following, from a Chica-
go newspaper, Is of interest, not only
because Mrs. Ellis was formerly of
this city, and the daughter of Mr.. and
Mrs. II. G. Robinson, of Park avenue
vest, but because the provisions of the
will of her late former husband will
be remembered to be as here stated:
Love, in the marriage Of Mrs. Cath
ering Pirrung, widow of the late Hen
ry G. Pirrung, butterine manufactures
and capitalist, has again surmounted
the strength of will even though 1t
has lost to one Of the parties more
than a quarter of a million dollars.
In his testament probated about two
years ago, Mr.. Pirrung provided that
his widow was to have an annuity of
$4,000 year as long as she remained
re-marriage this allowance was to be
reduced $500, or n reduction of $t7-
500 a year. The will provided that the
remainder OF the estate was to be kept
Va trust by three trustees until the
youngest child of the deceased, then
unborn, become q years OF age,
In the re-marriage OF the widow
Wednesday, in Chicago. to Arthur G.
Ellis, Milwaukee lumberman. the
terms OF the will were violated and the
amount due the widow each year auto
matlcally reduced Itself. 1t Is figured
that In the 20 years which must elapse
before the youngest child becomes of
age, Mrs. Pirrung would have received
$500 more than she will receive un-
der the reduced allowance, had she
remained single.
The Pirrung estate amounts TO about
S750.000. and when the youngest child
becomes of age 1t will be divided by
the widow and the two children, share
and share alike. The marriage does
not affect this provision.
II is understood that Mr., Ellis Is
8 gentleman of considerable means.

THE WAY OF A
TRAIN IN SPAIN

The train this morning is correo,
but everything is so new that you feel
no more hurried than the train and
rather enjoy its ways. 1t creeps into
the station quietly and carefully, as If
in fear that some hen might have laid
one of those numerous fine Spanish
eggs on the track, and it might get
broken in a too reckless approach.
Sometimes, but this doesn't happen
frequently. it shows up when near to
one of the smallest of the multitude
nous stations and sneaks by without
stopping, as if ashamed or afraid.
When it does come to standstill
it listIessly slides back bit, and then
slides forward a bit, and then rights
itself once more, and then straightens
up with jerk, as if it were tired and
it's muscles not obedient to will. Then
for a few moments, everyone cautious
ly waits to see what further it intends.
About the time it is thoroughly stop
ped some one pulls at the cord attach
ed to the tongue of the station bell
and gives three signals-to let the
passengers, and any one else who may
be interested, know that the train has
officially arrived, and a station en-
ploye calls out, San Pablo, ocho min
utos. meaning that there will be
eight minutes of waiting Grant
