Some have found a $2 piece, but not many. The $3 piece, one quite com- mon but always a sort of curiosity, is | oftener found, and many have speci- mens of the little gold coins represent- ing 25 and 50 cents, which were not minted by the General Government and { probably have not so much gold in | them as they represent. They used to pass as coin, but were never in gen- | eral circulation, being sc easily lost | that they soon became scarce. One of the handsomest coin relics |gcen is a 310 gold piece bearing the mint stamp of 1799. It is larger than “lhc present $10 gold piece. The owner i has it hung in a band and wears it as | |2 charm on his watch chain. The own- er says he refused an offer of $150+(or | this relic. The old octagonal $50 pieccs { were quite common in California in | early deys, when gold dust was largely ured as a circulating medium. They were made of pure gold, and while they had not the elegant finish of the gold | eoins minted by the Government in | those days, many still remember them | as the handsomest coin they ever saw. | Many people now would consider them | handsome on account of the $50 in | them.—Exchange. —_—————————— The palmist is usually looking for a hand out are already con- | address Binghamton, N.

If this assembly is to be created the commission still has two and a half years before it in which to complete its work of law and statute making for the future government of the islands. Continuing, he said: “It- is expected that this assembly | will do much in the way of educating | the natives in matters of good govern- | ment and strengthen their patriotic | | tendencies. Of course the acts of the | | assembly will have to be approved by | the United States authorities, but the | natives will have a say in the enact- | ment of all laws. By the time they | iy to send their representatives | assembly hall it is expected that | they have acquired a sufficient knnwlmlge of the methods of govern- ment.” CHINESE ARE OBJECTIONABLE, Governor Taft declined to express an opinion o how long it would prob- -ably take the United States, under its present methods of political education | in the Philippines, to bring the nati population up to a positiom where they may be relied upon to govern them-i selves without assistance from this| country. He smiled as he remarked: | “We are not looking so far into the ! future. We are simply dealing with | present conditions, but naturally buila- ing great hopes for the results of the work now in progress m the United States’ new poss During his two days’ stay in Hono- him, while en route to this city, Gove: | nor Taft, in company with Governor | Carte: ent the greater part of his | time inspecting the various industrial | | enterprises of t dity and several | neighboring sugar plantations, Hslllng‘ the Government barracks and in mak- | | ing a careful study of the labor and social conditions there. Referring to | his observations in Hawaii and partic- | | ularly regarding the labor conditions | there and in the Philippines Governor | Taft said: | “The Filipinos are intensely oppocod to any Chinese immigration. In the Philippines a Chinese will make $100 | or so from ar's labor and then start a shop, driving some Filipino woman competitor out of business. The great development of the Hawaiian Islands was caused by a free access | to the American market, with all the benefits of the national policy of pro- tection, and 1 deem it as only fair that Hawaii should now contribute her | share to the national Government.” CAUSE OF HASTY TRIP. ning his hurried journey to Washington Governor Taft said that it has no particular significance. “Mr. Root has been waiting patient- ly for a month for me to relieve him,"” said he, “and I am anxious to.get to | Washington on January 28, so that we may confer prior to my entering on my official duties on February 1, | which is the date of the heginning of my term, fixed by the Senate in con- | firming my appointment.” | Regarding the interview accorded | him by the Mikado of Japan during his short stay in Tokio, which was briefly announced by cable, Secretary | Taft said that it interested him very | much, but he declined to repeat the ! conversation that took place between | the Emperor and himself, as he might | be arded as guilty of an act of im- propriety in view of the fact that he | was about to enter upon the duties of | Secertary of War. “Arriving at Tokio,” said he, “‘we were met by the Japanese Sfi(‘re!nry‘ | of Foreign Affairs, whom I had pre- \‘io\usly known as a Consul General in | Mahila. He escorted Mrs. Taft, Sec-| | retary Carpenter and myself to the pal- | ace, where we were introduced to the | Emperor and by him entertained at luncheon. 1 found the Fmpm‘or a broad-minded man of modern ideas, | | who expressed a very cordial feeling toward Americans, and he convinced {me that he is an excellent ruler.

John Purcell, Noted Athlete, From Self-Inflicted Injury. ALAMEDA, Jan. 23.—John Purcell. once noted throughout this country and Europe as an all-round athlete, passed away this morning at the Ala- meda Sanitarium from a bullet wound through the brain, self-in- flicted twelve days ago while tempo- rarily insane. His vitality, consider- ing the nature of the wound, which extended from the roof of the mouth to the top of the skull, was regarded as remarkable by the attending sur- geons. Purcell was a man of mag- nificent physique and it was his strength, the physicians say, that kept Dies at suicide. During the period he was confined to the hospital tlhe patient was but seldom unconscious. He recognized and conversed wi.. members of his family and friends and would fre- quently arise and walk about in his room. Signs of dissolution were first ohserved in Purcell yesterday after- noon. He then lapsed into a state of coma, from which he never rallied. ‘When the demented athlete sought his life he placed a revolver in his mouth and pulled the trigger. The explo- sion worked terrible injury, loosening the teeth and shattering the gums. The lead slug passed through the .brain cavity, coming out about three inches back of the center of the fore- ‘head.
