DOLLAR OF 1804 IS A MYTH.
This Is an Assertion of the American
Journal of Numismatics.
Is there an American dollar of the
date of 1804 ? If there is , it is worth
u fortune , for it is one of the jack o'
lanterns of numismatics. In a recent
issue the American Journal- Numis
matics goes into an interesting account
'of what it terms the "myth of 1804 dollars
lars , " and denies that any such coin ,
struck In that year , is in existence.
Like comets , these alleged coins have
been turning up in moat unexpected
places for nearly a century. Recently
coin dealers were excited by a story
from Racine , Wis. , which told how a
women went into a dry goods store to
buy a spool of thread and tendered In
payment a worn silver dollar , saying
that she did not know whether it was
good or not. The clerk saw the date
1804" on the coin , put it into his pock-
ct , and threw a new silver dollar into
the cash drawer. He was offered $1-
500 for the old coin by a dealer , but re
fused to sell. In this way the story got
out , and the clerk's employer put in a
r-l.iim to the 1S04 dollar. Both men
have employed lawyers to defend their
titles , and now the woman shopper is
preparing to bring suit for the posses
sion of it.
For years. Mr. Nexsen , an expert of
Brooklyn , N. Y. , has made a study of
the subject. lie has convinced himself
and other competent judges that no
genuine 1804 dollar was ever coined.
lie has become convinced that the ali -
i leged dollars of that date are altcra-
j tions of Spanish , Mexican , Bank of
England 5-shilling pieces , or some such
fraud. It is believed that an expert-
j mental'die with milled edges was made
j bnt not used in 1804. In 1842 some
j one , perhaps surreptitiously , struck a
1 few dollars on this old , unused die , and
i it is these that are occasionally found.

MAILS FOR THE YEAR ,
Annual Report of the Postmaster Gen
eral IMude Public.
Postmaster General Charles Emory
Smith , in his annual report , devotes niore
space to the abuses iu second-class iiiail
matter than any other one subject. The
most urgent need of the postal service ,
he declares , is the rectification- the
enormous wrongs which have grown up
in the perversion and abuse of the privi
lege accorded by law to that class of mail
matter. This reform was paramount to
all others.
"There are , " he says , "many improve
ments and advances waiting development
und application ; there are opportunities
for speedier transmission and delivery ;
there are fields for broadening the scope
of the mail service aud bringing it closer
home to the. people ; there are possibili
ties of reduced postage ; but above and
beyond all of these measures of progress
Avhich experience and intelligence are
working out , is the redemption of the Spe
cial concession which Congress granted
for a distinct and justifiable object from
the fungus growths and the flagrant evils
that have fastened upon it.
"For this costly abuse , which drags on
the department and weighs down the ser
vice , trammels its power and means of
effective advancement in 'every direction ,
it involves a waste of $20,000,000 or up
ward a'year. The postal deficit for the
current year is SJG10,77G. ( But for this
wrongful application of the second-class
rate , instead of a deficit there would be
a clear surplus of many millions.
Statistics of the different classes of
matter carried in the past year are quot
ed in the report , from whicli an estimate
is made that one-half the matter mailed
at second-class rates (17(5,371,013 ( pounds ;
is improperly classified , and should justly
be paid for at third-class rates. These
figures , says the report , show :
1. That more than one-fourth of the
entire volume of weight of matter car
ried through the mails is rated , and pays
as second-class matter , when under the
spirit and intent of the law it ought to be
rated and 'to ' pay as third-class matter.
2. That while this wrongly classed mat
ter amounts to more than one-quarter of
the whole volume of mail transmitted , it
furnishes only one fifty-fifth part of the
postal revenue.
3. That the expense of transportation
being reckoned at 8 cents a pound , the
mere carrying of this matter costs $14-
108,121) . while the revenue from it was
only $1,703,51 G , involving a loss to the
Government of § 12,344,013.
CLOSE AFTER "AGGIE. "

OLDEST MAN IN AMERICA
Tells How He Escaped the Ter

Using Peruna.
Mr. Isaac Brock , the Oldest Man In the

Mr. Isaac Brock , of McLennan County ,
Tex. , has attained the great age of 111
years , having been born In 17S8. He Is an
ardent friend to Peruua and speaks of it lu
the following terms :
"During my loug life I have known .1 great
many remedies for coughs , colds , catarrh
and diarrhoea. I had always supposed these
affections to be different diseases , but I
have learned from Dr. Hartman's book *
that these affections are the same and are
properly called catarrh.
"As for Dr. Hartman's remedy , Feruna ,
I have found it to be the best , if uot the
only remedy for these affections.
"Psruna has been my stand-by
for many years , and /attribute my
good fjealth and my extreme age
to this remedy. It exactly meets
all my requirements.
"I have come to rely upon It almost en
tirely for the many little things for which
I need medicine. I believe it to be espei
chilly valuable to old people. "

The John M. Smyth Co. Have No
Agents.
The well-merited popularity of the
great mail order establishment of the
j John M. Smyth Co. of Chicago seems to
j have induced unscrupulous parties to go
through the country and falsely represent
f themselves as sales agents for this house.
j By thus representing themselves they
have succeeded in imposing upon many
by selling goods and taking cash aud
! notes from victims who actually believed
! they were purchasing goods from the
i representatives of the firm direct. The

denounce as frauds all parties traveling
