Sentiment in the wheat pit was
bearish all day but during the last
hour the desire to sell became less ur-
gent and the market became steady;
the new low record mark was touched
soon after the opening and also later
in the day. The close was steady.
the Words, "M’sieu, elle est fausse,
cetto piece!”
To whom has this not happened In
the gay city? Chilean and other South
American coins frequently fall Into
people’s hands without their being
aware of it. Then there is the Na-
poleon III dollar piece, where the em-
peror’s effigy has a small crown of
larel, issued about 1858, and with-
drawn from circulation six years ago.
Counterfeit franca, which are not what.
they should be, are even more numer-
ous. z
| They generally have a grayish leaded l
'hue, and feel greasy when touched.

amine the pieces until in piling them
up sideways they happen to touch One

conditions affect opinions

celpts have not had the usual result,

Rome, Jan. 5.—A curious incident ,1
happened some time ago when a trav- • "V
ding trunk was lost. The owner, a N
music hall singer, declared that it con- %
tained valuable effects and jewelry,
and she was offered $25,900 in final 1
settlement of all claims. But the inu-
sic hall star refused. ,
It so happened that, pending nego- J
tiations, the trunk was discovered, and )
the order was at once given by the /
ofcials for a list of its contents. An /
expert jeweler was also requisitioned,
and his response was to the effect that
the asserted precious diamonds were
all false. The fact reached the cars
of the owner, who disappeared, and "
has riot been heard of since. . 1
A warrant for her arrest was issued
on the charge Of having attempted /
to defraud state railways. " i
Don’t forget the fact that you can’t
stand for your party unless you have
ypur poll tax paid and .this month
• limits your opportunity in that line.
Therefore get your tax today.
