Valdosta recently received from the
treasury at Washington 11,000 In "Co
lumbian" half dollars, which It I* hav
ing considerable trouble putting In cir
culation. iWhen the coins made their
appearance here a few days ago, owing
to their oddity and to the fact that
many people thought they were at a
premium, they were accepted readily,
and there were many Inquiries for
them In the city. Not so, however, 111
other sections. The bank shipped less

town customer and today received a
letter from the customer stating that
the coins could not be used, as th*
people there refused to accept them.
The bank has been notified that the
coins will be returned.
