FAMOUS RUSSIAN CLOWN DIES
High-cIass Circus Jester, Much Be-
loved, Left Fortune of Million
Dollars.

One of the famous people who have
passed away since the war began is
the famous Russian clown, Anatole
Duroy.
Durov held that, whatever your vo-
cation, the only thing that brings you
success is work Accordingly, he be-
came the most Industrious, successful
and beloved clown In Russia, and prob
ably the richest clown in the world,
too, for when he died, not long since,
he left fortune of a million dollars,
and collection of trained animals
that brought visitors to his home from
all over the world.
Born of an ancient and noble fam
lily, he was pupil of the renowned
cadet corps, but before his graduation
he ran away and joined . circus, says
the Youths Companion.
But he had no ambition to be an or
binary clown He kept in touch with
politics, with everything that took
place in Russia, and applied to it his
wit. Soon he became an unlicensed
censor Of Russian society in motley.
Evil he rebuked by jest and gibe. No
man was in too high place for his
tongue; and furious officials once
brought about his exile. Russia loved
him too well for that, however, and
soon he was back in the ring. To
show that he meant to be more dis
Greet, he appeared with paddock at
tached to his mouth.
He was very famous animal train
err. The pig was his favorite pupil,
almost everything that human beings
can do except talk.

RARE COIN NEGRO HEIRLOOM
Omaha Man Bought Washington Me
mortal Dollar From Texas Owner
Few Were Minted.

BY the display Of silver dollar J..
A. McShane, millionaire Oil man Of
Omaha, became the central figure in a
Los Angeles hotel recently, the Elk
press of that city states. OF course,
there was nothing remarkable about
Mr.. McShane's displaying a dollar, nor
were those who crowded about him the
type Of men to whom the coin is rare.
AS matter of fact. the reason for
the interest was that the coin in ques-
ton is Washington memorial dollar,
one of the very few minted just after
the first president died In 1899.
The dollar is about the same size
as that ordinarily exchanged for a
pound or so Of potatoes, and on each
side is a profile of Washington. On
one side is the date Of his birth, Feb
ruary %, 1882, and on the other that
of his death, December IA, 1899. There
are SO stars on each side of the coin.
Mr.. McShane obtained the dollar
from negro In Texas. The negro
said that he had carried 1t for 20 years
and that it had been given him by his
grandfather. He was loath to part
with it and did so only after Mr.. Nc
Shane had crossed his palm with con-
siderably more than the face value Of
the Washington dollar.
Mr.. McShane said that he intended
to place the coin in the museum of
Creighton university of Omaha,
which was endowed with $5,0OO,OO0
by the McShane family.
