WORK OF THE MINT FOR THE YEAR
A Suggestion to Raise the Country's
Stock of Subsidiary Coin to Meet
Our Needs.
Washington. D. C. Special?The report
of Mr. George E. Roberts, director
of the mint, upon the operations of
the mint service during the fiscal year
ended June .10, 1901, has been completed.
The coinage of the mints during
the fiscal year amounted to 176,990,132
pieces, of the value of $136,240,781.
Of this $99,063,715 W2s in gold;
$24,293,830 was in Gilver dollars, 310,966,648
was in fractional silver and $2,009.568
was in minor coin.
The coinage cf silver dollars during
the year wa3 wholly from the stock of
bullion accumulated under the act of
July 14, 1S90. The amount of thl3 bullion
on hand at the beginning of the
fiscal year was S2.26S.054 standard
ounceG, and at the end of the year 32,562,927
standard ounces. The coinage
of this bullion has been accelerated to
enable the treasury to retire the treasury
notes issued on its purchase and at
the same time eupply the pressing demand'
which has existed throughout
the year for the small denominations
of money required in retail trade.
The original deposits of gold at the
mints and assay offices amount to
$153,101,580, an Increase of$l9.1S1,561
over the preceding year. Of thie $27,906,489
was in foreign coin; $17,600,483
that of Great Britain, nearly all being
from Australia and $50,425,500 that of
Japan.
The estimated production of gold in
the United States during the calendar
year 1900 was $79,171,000, and notwithstanding
the fact that this country led
the world in production, its imports
exceeded its exports by $12,866,0i0. The
production of North America, practically
all of which comes to the United
State6, was $110,151,500.
The world's coinage of gold In the
calendar year of 1900 was $354,935,197,
and of silver $117,011,902.
The industrial consumption of gold
in the United States during the calendar
year 1900 is estimated at $16,667,500
,and of the world, approximately
$75,000,000.
The stock of subsidiary coin in the
country is limited by law to $100,000,000
and on November Lst, 1901. the existing
stock was $90,613,512. The report
says that it is not improbable that
before another Congress shall have opportunity
to act. the growing needs of
the country will have absorbed the entire
amount authorized.
t?. that tho limit of the
Jt ICS CUoO IUMI
country's stock of subsidiary coin be
raised to at least $120,030,000. No good
reason is aparent.says the report.why
the coinage of dollar pieces should not
be allowed to cease and all of the ;..lvcr
on hand be used in subsidiary
coinage.
The Bonine Trial.
Washington. Special.?Counsel for
the defense in the trial of Mrs. Lola
Ida Boriine for the murder of James
Seymour Avres. Jr., Saturday, precipitated
a lengthy argument over the
right to ask an expert witness cer
tain hypothetical questions bearing
on the hip wound of Ayres. The
court directed the jury to retire during
the discussion. The defense
stated that it would endeavor to show
by the witness. Dr. W. P. Carr. that
ha ffivpmmpnt's contention that
Ayres received this wound at long
range, was wholly untenable from Ihe
very nature of the wound. The court
will render its decision Monday.
Roosevelt's First Bill.
Washington. Special. ? Pres'dont
Roosevelt Saturday signed the first bill
sent to him by Congress, thus creating
thp first law to be enacted under his
administration. It was the act to admit
free of duty and to permit Iht
transfer of foreign exhibits from the
Pan-American Exposition of the South
Carolina Inter-State and West Indian
Exposition at Charleston, S. C.
A Negro Lynched.
Lake Charles, La., Special.?Saul
Poydras, a negro, who cut Chief Deputy
Richard and wife seriously Th'.irs
day nighe, was lynched here Saturday
morning. Poydras was arrested at
Welsh and the officers were about to
lodge him in the parish prison, when
a mob overpowered the guards, took
charge of Poydras, and hanged him to
an electric light pole.
Marr'ed By Telegraph.
Bowling Green, Ky., Special.?Miss
Maude Wilcutt stood in the telegraph
office here and became the bride of Dr.
J. W. Simmons, of Peaster, Tex. They
were married by wire. The questions I
were asked from tho Texas end by a
justice of the peace and were answered
by Mi&3 Wilcutt. Mis3 Wilcutt at
present is teaching school in Butler
county. She and Dr. Simmons recently
met while travelling. The operator
and newspaper acquaintances were the
Bowling Green witnesses to the nrrriages
Mrs. Simmons will leave next
week for Texas to join her husband.
NEGRO SUPERSTITION.
gonle of Them Are Jast Like the Ones
Held by Their VI hlto Brethren.
Many cf the negro superstitions in
Kentucky are quite interesting. An
old philosopher told me with great
gravity: "If you want peppers to
grow, you must git mad. My old
'oman an' me had a spat, an' I went
right out an* planted my peppers, an'
they came right up." Still another
saying is that peppers, prosper, must
be planted by a red-headed or by a
high-tempered person. The negro also
says that one never sees a jailbird on
Friday, for the bird visits his satanlc
majesty to "pack kindling" on that
day. The three signs in which the negroes
place implicit trust arc the wellknown
ones of the ground hog appearing
above ground on the 2d of February;
that a hoe must not be carried
through a house or a death will follow,
and that potatoes must be planted
in the dark of the moon, as well as
all vegetables that ripen in the ground,
anil that corn must be planted in the
light of the moon. Feed gunpowder
to dogs and it will make them fierce.
A negro will not burn the wood of a
tree that has been struck by lightning,
for fear that his house will burn or
be struck by lightning. If a bird files
Into a house it brings luck. If a crawfish
or a turtle catches your toes it
will hold on till it thunders. When a
child I was told by a black nurse that
if a bat alights on one's bead it will
stay there till it thunders. This was
so terrifying that even now I have an
unnecessary fear of being clutched by
a bat. To make soap, stir it with a
sassafras stick in the dark of the
moon.

grand imperial tour. He was riding on

he sat, his reason for exclaiming,
whenever he whipped up one of the
horses, "Come up, your royal highness,
will you?" "Why do you call
him royal highness?" asked the duke.
"Well, sir," he replied civilly, " 'cause
he's so 'orty and lazy, and good for
nothing! See?" His royal highness
did not pursue the subject, but afterward
told tlfe story to his friends with
great gle?~ and so it got into printDetroit
