Author's Two Names
Enhances Value of Book
John Galsworthy's "The Is
land Pharisees" is not one of
his better known works. Liter
ally it doesn't rank with "The
Forsyte Saga," and as a collec
tor's item it lags far behind
his earliest pieces that appear
ed under the nom de plume
of John Sinjohn.
I was somewhat surprised
to learn through a book deal
er that a friend had author
ized him to pay up to $40 for
a copy of "The Island Phari
sees," provided it was in ex
cellent condition.
The dealer thought the or
der would be relatively easy
to fill. He knew that it had
sold at less than $20 on sev
eral occasions during the past
decade. But when it came to
buying a good copy, that was
another matter.
The 312-page book, pub
lished in London in 1904, by
William Heineman, was issued
in green cloth, both in the
first and second issues of the
first edition.
"LIBERTY BELL" MUG SPORTS SNAKE HANDLE
The only part of the mug I
could see was that section
where the handle is, but since
the handle was in the form
of a snake it seemed worth
investigating.
Generally speaking, the
snake has so few friends that
whenever it is used on any
kind of an art-form, the piece
is pretty sure to be unusual.
This case was not an excep
tion. When the proprietor fi
nally got the piece out I saw
that it was what is known as
a "Liberty Bell" mug, one of
the souvenir pieces put out by
the thousands at the Philadel
phia Centennial Exhibition,
celebrating the 100th anni
versary of the Declaration of
Independence. ...
Though I have heard of one
of these mugs being found in
amber glass, I have seen it in
only two kinds clear glass
and milk white. This one was
in the latter.
On one side of the mug was
a .representation of the Liber
ty Bell. On the other were
LIBERTY HALF-PENNY HAS
Though most of the prod-
ucts of the early U.S. Mint
may not be noted for their
. . ,
ucu.yf nicy wcic axiu are
creditable pieces of work, the date 1796. The difference be
lowly half-cent piece being no tween the two kinds lies in
exception.
And so when an acquaint-
ance acquired a 1796 half-cent
piece that, turned out to be
a pretty crude job in com-
parison ,to others that also
hadn't seen much use, he was
considerably disappointed.
It was a counterfeit, one
that was apparently made by
a well-known collector half
a century or so ago. But since
counterfeits of the 1796 half-:
cent are almost as rare as
the original, they have a col-
lector's value as well.
There are two legitimate
half-cent pieces of that date,
To the casual .glance, the ob-
verse or face on each is as
much like the other as the
reverse which is identical.
Ashland Youths Fined, Sentenced
Ashland Three Ashland
youths were fined and sen
tenced to jail Friday in justice
court by Justice Lee Wilmeth.
Gold Hill Woman
Seeks Judgment
Mrs. Etta , Mae Williams,
route 1, box 306, Gold Hill,
is seeking a $19,950 judgment
from Mrs. Josephine Louise
Malot, 3009 .Table Rock rd.,
Medford, on the basis of in
juries she allegedly received
on Feb. 20, 1958, according
county courthouse records.
Mrs. Williams claims she
received permanent injury to
her left arm and hand, and
that she suffers headaches and
pain as the result of a two
car accident at East Fifth and
Bartlett sts., Medford. She re-
in one of the accident ve
hicles, operated by Mrs. Ma
lot. Representing the plaintiffs
are the Medford attorneys
Hugh B. Collins and James A.
Redden Jr.
SENTENCED
Edward Neff, Grants Pass,
was given a three-year, su
spended sentence by Circuit
Judge H. K. Hanna Friday
morning after he pleaded guil
ty to charges of burglary not
in a dwelling.
The distinguishing differ
ence between the two lay in
the list of novels published
in the front of the book. In
the first issue the novel,
"Uriah the Hittite" is listed
as written by Wolf Wyllarde
That was a mistake that
was discovered by the time
the second issue went to press
when the author's name was
corrected to read "Dolf Wyl
larde." But while that was the dis
tinguishing point about the
book, it was not an explana
tion why the buyer was will
ing to go so high for a good
copy.
The reason for that I learn
ed only after a satisfactory
copy had been found, and at
$45.
The book is the one that
gives both of the author's
names on the title page. He
is listed thus "John . Gals
worthy (John Sinjohn) Au
thor of 'A Man of Devon,'
'Villa Rubein,' etc."
the dates 1776-1876 and the
inscription "100 Years Ago."
On the base was another in
scription "Manufactured at
the Centennial Exhibition by
Gillinder & Sons."
Accordng to the price
marked on the piece with a
grease pencil, it was $2, but
the proprietor said I would
have to pay $3. It was worth
the extra dollar for the
trouble he had had in getting
it out of the window.
I paid it with only a minor
protest.
Even in clear glass these
little mugs usually bring from
$10 to $20, and in the much
rarer milk white $35 is not
too hige a price.
The reason is that the Phil
adelphia firm that made it
produced a large line of cen
tennial pieces for which there
are plenty of collectors. But
though the mugs were said to
have been produced in sub
stantial quantity, for some
reason they are far scarcer to
day than many other of the
items in the line.
CAP AND POLE ,
The design on the obverse
is simple. Under the word
"B?R77 pp?a uffa1.!
head, facing right. Behind it
ig a Bel jg tfa
the cap.
If the cap is supported by
a pole, it is' the less valuable,
ranging from $100 to $300
If there is no pole, it is worth
from $200 to $500 or more.
So far as I have found, all
the counterfeits that -have
been made of this coin are
of the one with the pole.
To determine whether one
of these half-cent pieces is a
counterfeit it is necessary to
compare it with a legitimate
one. The evidence does not
lie in the quality of the metal
but in certain characteristic
marks in the die.
My acquaintance sold his
counterfeit for $75.

Oregon Pioneer Visible in New
Rendition
By A. ROBERT SMITH
Mail Tribune Correspondent
Washington We could,
by squinting a bit, see the
Oregon pioneer mounting the
brow of the
Cascades, his
covered wag
on behind
him, as the
setting sun
gave a golden
hue to the
land of plenty
spread out be
fore him.

Ore. Lumberman
Jailed on Charge
Of Manslaughter
Steamboat Springs, Colo.
(UPI) A 25-year-old Oregon
lumber worker was jailed Fri
day on a charge that he struck
his infant daughter in Sep
tember, 1956, causing a brain
injury which, killed her last
April.
The lumber worker, Wel-
don Paul Lane, pleaded inno
cent to manslaughter when
arraigned before Justice of
the Peace H. E. Coombs. He
was bound over to district
court and held in the Routt
county jail here in $2,000
bond.
Lane had not posted the
bond late Friday and had not
engaged an attorney, accord'
ing to the Routt county sher
iff's office.
Lane's daughter, Beverly
Jean, died April 13 at a Port
land, Ore., hospital. An au
topsy disclosed - she had suf
fered a brain injury.
Tells Authorities
The baby's mother, Mrs. Pa
tricia Smith, told authorities
that in September, 1956, Lane
struck the infant with a nurs
ing bottle, while they were
living at Yampa, Colo., in
Routt county. District attor
ney Harry Hogan of The Dal
les, Ore., where Lane's for
mer wife now lives, communi
cated her testimony to District
Attorney Worth Shrimpton of
Routt county. Shrimpon pre
ferred a manslaughter charge
against Lane.
Lane was arrested at Yampa
Monday by Sheriff A. B. Rit
ter, and arraigned Friday.
Ritter's office said Lane is
a native of Eagle, Colo. In
1956, when he is alleged to
have struck his daughter, he
was working for the Edman
Lumber company near Yam
pa. His wife, now Mrs. Smith,
divorced him subsequently
and now lives at The Dalles.
Lane's mother makes her
home at The Dalles, and he
considers it his home. He re
turned to Yampa for a time
in 1957 and again this year.

of Rediscovered Song
of the imagination the other
night as we sat on the banks
of the Potomac and listened
to the first rendition of a new
symphonic arrangement of
"Oregon, My Oregon."
Special Concert
This was a special concert
performed outdoors to honor
both the state and its "redis
covered" song, as well as Her
man D. rvenin, newiy-eiecxea
president of the American
Federation of Musicians, who
is from Portland.
The AFM musicians did
penance for not knowing until
recently that Oregon even had
state song. They not only
performed it beautifully, if
controversially, but . invited
prominent Oregonians here to
a dinner beforehand at the
Statler.
As Sen. Wayne Morse told
the audience at the outset,
Oregonians here went to ban
quet after banquet for years
without ever hearing "Ore
gon, My Oregon" while other
states were being recognized
by their state songs.
"But we have a detective on
the Oregon congressional dele
gation," said Morse. "He's
Charlie Porter. He rediscov
ered the Oregon state song
and is the spirit behind this
occasion tonight."
Hears of Complaint
Kenin, hearing about Port
er's complaint that Washing
ton, D. C, musicians didn't
know the Oregon song, sent
the congressman the sheet
music to be. passed around to
local orchestras. Now they all
know it and play it.
So the other night the mu
sicians did it up brown, with
a 55-piece symphony orches
tra. They gave it the Cecil B.
DeMille treatment that was
nothing like what we sang in
4-H club summer camp1, as one
young Oregonian put it.
After a long, moving slow-
beat arrangement that was
heavy with soft violins, the
orchestra charged into the
martial gallop and the Ore
gon pioneer picked up his
rifle and yelled "Fifty - four
forty or fight."
Played on Radio
This part of the program,
plus some commentary by
Kenin and Porter, was played
not only for about 5,000 list
eners on the river bank but
over a Mutual network radio
hookup that went coast-to-
coast.
Porter commented that
some people object to the
words of ."Oregon, My Ore
gon" but he found them full
of rich meaning. What do the
words tell us, he asked.
Land of the Empire Build
ers ' bilders of an empire
based on hard work, courage
and tolerance of the other fel
low's views;
Land of the Golden West-
golden refers to sunsets and
how we feel, not to material
wealth;
Conquered and held by
freemen we shall ever be
in debli to the free men and
women who bravely pioneer
ed our land;
Fairest, Best
Fairest and the best no
question about this;
Onward and upward ever,
forward and on, and on .
there is still pioneering to be
done in our great state, hard
but satisfying work for all
of us;
Hail to thee, land of Heroes,
My Oregon heroes, indeed,
all those who seek to be
worthy t of this many-blessed
portion of our great nation.
Congressman Porter called
them "fitting words for stir
ring music."
Kenin told the audience the
WESTINGHOUSE
NUTONE OTHERS
song would be heard a lot
next year during the Oregon
Centennial celebration.
