FOUND HANGING IN BOX CAR IN RAILROAD YARDS

Man Who Is Thought to Be William Coffman of Richmond, Found Dead in Cincinnati This Morning. MYSTERY SURROUNDS THE MAN'S IDENTITY. Witnesses State That He Is And Is Not a Resident of Richmond Description of Man Forwarded Here. This afternoon Sergeant McMaVus received a long distance telephone message from the coroner of Hamilton county at Cincinnati, stating that at an early hour this morning a man, supposed to be a resident of this city but whose Identity had not yet been discovered, was found hanging by a handkerchief In a box car. which was on a siding in the Cincinnati yards. When found the man had been dead several ours. The coroner asked the local police to assist in identifying the suicide. In a pocket of his coat an American Express company receipt, made out to '"William Coffman" was found. It is not known whether this was the man's name or not. The receipt was the only thing found on his person which would give a clue as to his identity. There is a William Coffman residing on North A street and he is a railroad man. At a late hour this afternoon a policeman was sent to the Coffman home to learn whether the tnan was missing. The Cincinnati official to whom Sergeant McManus was talking, stated that some people be had examined in making an investigation of the affair, stated that the suicide had relatives in Richmond but did not reside there. Other witnesses told him that the sulride was a resident of Richmond. None of them seemed to know very much about him. For the purpose of making identification of the body possible, the following discrlption of the suicide is given. Heighth, 5 feet, 7 inches; weight, ISO pounds; age, about 33 years, smooth face, grey eyes, short neck, scar on left thumb, scar on forefinger of right hand, blue serge suit, black derby hat and dark grey overcoat.

The Credulity of Men and tho Gospel of the Pursiitei. The credulity of a multitude of more or less thrifty people, who, iu their mania for money, are ready to believe that they can amass fortunes overnight, mukes them the easy prey of a swarm of parasites who infest the financial districts. The gospel of the parasites who build air castles for their victims anl real castles for themselves is tere: "A fool is bora every minute." "A fool and his money are soon parted." Posing as bankers and brokers, the financial parasites scour the country for the fools and then exercise their nimble wits in devising schemes to accomplish the partition. How many mill as of dollars are parted from the fools every year may be coujectured from the millions of dollars spent by the pseudo-financiers in advertising. The bulk of the financial advertising in the loading newspapers of tlie country Is intended for the fools. Another index of the richness of the harvest of parting money from the fools Is the occasional exposure of some particularly glaring and bungle! Imposture, when the calculable "swag" runs into the hundreds of thousands. If not into millions. But these frauds are seldom exposed, for the victims are usually as anxious as the riotimizers to escape the limelight of publicity. Most men prefer to lose thir money rather thaD hear their neighbors quote from the parasites' gospel, "A fool and bis money arc soon parted." Success. PALLADIUM WANT ADS PAY.

X COIN OF CO UliTESY THE GUINEA OF THE ENGLISHMAN IS NOT A COIN AT ALL.

As a Piece of Rril Mosey It Has o Existence, and It la laed Only In Imagination m a Rather Aknril Standard of Monetary Value. Of all the obstacles that confront the Englishman the guinea is the most urnazing. The other day an American guest Inquired of me, "What is a guinea?'' He had been asked for one by a circulating ''brary. It seems an easy question to auswer, but as I had beea puzzliug over the division of an imaginary guinea Into four parts the explanation took time. It was as difficult aa explaining cricket to a German in German. "Show me one," said the American. I confessed that I did not possesj one. "What, not $5.25 ?" "Yes, but not a guinea. We don't have a guinea in England any more." "But you talk In guineas:" "That's our fun," I replied lamely. Nevertheless there is something to be aid for our system. Indeed, one might argue that this Incessant obstacle race over the multiplication tables that we have to nter insures a bracing of the muscles. We are always kept on the alert to fathom the relations between a pottle, a perch and a guinea or some such absurd and fortuitous combination. And one may suspect that this tightening and strengthening of the muscles in the obstacle race is really the source of England's greatness. For all practical purposes the guinea in which we talk is the most preposterously absurd coin in the world, for it does not exist corporeally. Some few honest citizens wear spade guineas on their watch chains. But if they tried to pass them over to the booking clerk on the underground railway tbey would be in danger of the Judgment. There are no guineas in England. Tes, in imagination they exist. And never more accuse yourself of belonging to an unimaginative nation of shopkeepers! The guinea is the coin of courtesy, just because it la not a coin at all. And its preservation as an anomaly is a curious proof of the innate courtesy of the Englishman, who will face any arithmetical inconvenience rather than put a slur on a friend. This you may see from the lists of subscriptions for the gentleman in dis tress. You cannot offer him the neces- j saries of life. When the friend falls by the wayside it must be guineas, not sovereigns, that you supply, and one feels glad that the remarks of the meanest sport that exists the sport of kings offers prizes in "sovs." It is merely the analogue of that convention which regulates gifts between equals. Etiquette forbids your sending a friend a leg of mutton that is, a sovereign, the ordinary, humdrum coin. But you may send him pheasants, oysters, grouse or salmon, more especially If the salmon is the victim of your own "rode, pole and perch.'' Possibly the real explanation Is that, as a matter of courtesy, you may not give a man what he could obtain at the nearest shop it must be something: that Is not easily obtainable. Now, a guinea Is not easily obtainable, and the difference between offering a man a guinea and offering him a sovereign is the difference between sending a man a leg of mutton and sending him a barrel of oysters. That little silly shilling stuck on to the sovereign, that retention of the ghost of a coin long dead and borne on a watch chain, with the locket containing a twist of great-great-auntie's hair, was its significance. It is the embodiment of the Englishman's innate idealism. It is like the equally silly "Esq." which we tack on the names of friends. There are no esquires nowadays and no guineas, but we- see them with the eye of faith. And we sacrifice to our faith considerable muscular exertion, many blobs of ink and sundry shillings that might otherwise stock our houses with cheap reprints of the world's best books. You will naturally conclude that I did not put this view before my American friend. He would scarcely understand it. I led him gently to the palatial bank premises into which I hurriedly cast my weekly wage for fear I should lose It on the way home and pointed out to him (lowering my voice discreetly, as becomes the suppliant in the temple of wealth). "Note that young man," I said. "He is adding up three columns of figures. There are guineas, things that won't fraternize with half crowns or four hilling pieces or florins or half sovereigns or sovereigns, but you will perceive that this young man is taking them in his stride. Now, what about his muscles?" "I should conclude," said the American guest thoughtfully, "that a young man who can put 12 guineas together and make 'em dollars can do anything." "The guinea." 1 explained as we went out into Fiecadilly, "is the source of England's greatness." And the American guest remained thoughtful. London Chronicle. Kind ef Hint. "No. dear," said he, "I don't Intend to have you do your own work after we are married." "Is that so, dear?" she cooed. "Yes," he went on.

Besides these three there are two other authentic signatures, of which the first. In the conveyance of his Blackfriars property, is written "Shakspere, and the second.

"Shakspere i the spelling of the alleged autograph in the British museum copy of Florio'g -Montaigne," but the authenticity of the signature Is considered doubtful.

Almost all references to the poet in the seventeenth century giv the form the grant of arms In lZy;, In the Itcense to the players of and in the text of all the legal documents relating to the poet's property.
