The silver shield containing n por-
| trait medallion of superfluous Wilhelm
| OF Hohenzoilern and coins Of all Ger
man principalities and provinces 20 the
| number OF fifty-two, which were donated
| to the fund several months ago, has been
! sold for little more than the value of
| the silver. 1t had been hoped to disi
pose OF the coins separately and melt
down Wilhelm, but as these were riveted
l In the shield their value as coins was
greatly deprecated and they were too
| recent of date to excite the cupidity Of
| numismatists, consequently they went In
| to the crcucibie along with the Kaiser!
THE SUN Tobacco Fund will benefit by
this melting down by SIPS.
There Is a story connected with the
| shield TO account for its being In New
York after the declaration OF war with
Germany which the fund will sell TO any
novelist who may be temporarily out of
ideas for q war story. As FLIP to the
curiosity which this vague offer may
4 awaken IL may De Stdteu tnht the Story
| will bristle with action and reyolve
around men who have recently made
big noise in the world. The price of
this plot Is 500. to be paid to THE
SUN Tobacco Fund.
