Crown Dating From 1000 A. D.
Tho rumor, current in the European
press some months ago, when the Bela
Kan administration ruled In Hungary,
that the Hungarian crown was to be
sold, seems to have disappeared, and
the later government apparently means
to keep it It was an odd circumstance,
says a writer commenting on that
rumor and its disappearance, that,
with so much talk of discarded insig
nia of royalty, the one crown actually
mentioned'as being for sale should
have been the most ancient one, with a
single exception, In "Europe. For
whereas the German crown, for exam
ple, is comparatively modern, and was
made no longer ago than 1871 for the
former kaiser's grandfather, this
crown of Hungary traces back, at least
In legend, to the year 1000, and the snm
of 100.000 Swiss marks, about $19,000,
which, last summer, was circumstan
tially reported as the price for which
It was to be sold, does not seem par
