HL OXFORD PUBLIC LEDGER TlJFcnAV 16, 1010 TO RESTORE HISTORICSPofiTT Chinese "Cash" Has Gone the Way of Many Othtr Forms of Monny in That Country. With the end of the war comes the end. one may believe, of an odd spec tacle sometimes seen in the neighbor hood of Tsinan, Tsingtau, and doubt less of other Chinese cities the . sight of a Chinese coolie pushing a wheel barrow loaded with coins on their way to be melted down for the metal. War conditions raised the price of brass and copper to such an extent that it was found profitable to purchase coins and melt them, a practice which brought inconvenience, for it materially reduced the circulating medium. Laws were passed against it, but they seem to nave been more or less successfully evaded, and wheelbarrows continued to be u?ed in supplying the smelters. Thus is added another incident in the long history of Chinese "cash," which began 8.000 years and more ago with the circulation of coins that had the shape of knives, still to be seen used as paper knives by foreigners in China who have picked them up searching for antiquities. Other shapes were in troduced, and before the Chou dynasty, about GOO B. C, the Chinese currency was ax-shaped and spade-shaped as well as knife-shaped. At that time round coins with a hole in them, so that they might be held together with a cord, were i introduced and found mucb more convenient.

An effort is being made in New Or leans to restore the old historic spots Zl n pT"' With the restoration of the old Place d'Armes, the rehabili tation Of the Cabildn nnrl u t.. apartments which surround it, and the preservation of all as an artistic cen ter for the old French and Spanish quarter, an effort is being made to re store and preserve the landing place of Bienville, where he first set foot on the high land in 1720, at the place he was destined to convert into Nouvelle Orleans. This landing nlr. lies on the river directly facing the rklie uAiwcs,, wmcn is now Jackson square, is covered with the switch tracks of the Southern Pacific and public Belt railroads, and with a part of the large steel warehouse belonging to the board of commissioners of the port of New Origans. Supporters of the Louisiana State museum have appealed to the mayor and the various civic organizations to have these sheds and railroad tracks removed at once, inasmuch as the land, clear fr.om the Cabildo to the river itself, was expropriated some uine ago 10 De put in historical and artistic reserve. As all the water front of New Orleans and the east bank of the river belongs to the city and state forever, the completion of the artistic center is sure of accomplishment.
