CHAPTER x.
The Humble Heroine.

All alone, with an overcoat conceal
ing his gray uniform. poor Emmett made
his way out to the house in Butterfield
Lane Near 1t he was joined by Dow
dali, Quigley, and VITO brothers named
Parrot The first words OF Emmett were
that 1t was not defeat but merely n
postponement. The country would do
what the city had failed in. They ap-
preached the house very cautiously.
Anne Devlin saw them outside of tha
house in the yard; she was at that mo-
ment sending off man on horseback
with ammunition in a sack and bottles
filled with powder. Anne called out,

They then came in. Quigley was pres

that Quieley was the cause of the fail

premature alarm was Intentionally

Never before have so many candi-
dates turned out to secure positions on
/ the varsity team. There are about forty
men fighting for positions. 1t will be
hard matter for the coaches to pick
the best. The material. from point of
weight and strength, is the best George
town has ever had. The center weighs
210 pounds. and two of the ends tip the
beam at about 100. This years team

fastest that ever wore the blue and gray

The football schedule of Georgetown
was published several days ago, and the
lovers Of the game were much disap-
pointed at not finding the University of
Virginia team on the list this season.
Heretofore this has been the star con-
test of the year. Athletic relations
were broken off between the two shortly
after the Georgetown Virginia game has
year. when the Southerners were de-
feated for the championship by score
OF II to 16. Georgetown won out in the
last fifteen seconds of play.
Columbian Wins Victory.
The game between Columbian Uni
versity and Western Maryland College,
September 27, resulted in a score Of 5
to in favor Of the local eleven.
1t was the first game in which the
locals have INDUCED. and it was with
doubts as to their winning that they
took the field. The moment the first
crash came, however, they knew that
they would have some hard playing to do
If they wanted to win.
This is only the second year that Co
lumbian has taken deep interest in
athletics. Last season the boys formed
an athletic association and organized
baseball team. For the little practice
they have had, Columbian played a re-
markably good game. If they keep the
good work up. by the time the end OF
the year has rolled around they will
make formidable foe for some of the
bigger elevens.

at 1t with roar of rage and thrust his
pike through the body of Lord Kilwar-

was going on, rushed back and saved the

College Season Open.
week ago yesterday the college foot
ball season opened with two games in
this city. Georgetown and the Mary
land Agricultural College contested for

locals favor. They averaged twenty
pounds more weight, and they threw
this tremendous weight against .he lads

The visitors not only failed to score,
but at no time did they have the ball in
Georgetowns territory.
The visitors were up against hard

was made of it. 1t may be that home
was the last place the defeated leader
was expected to turn to.
But the next day after a troop of
yeomen, under command of one Major
Brook. came up and searched the house
from top to bottom Anne Devlin was
seized on when they first rushed in.
She was kept below by three or four
OF the yeomen with their fixed bayonels
pointed at her. and so close TO her body
that she could feel their points. When
the others came down she was exam
ined. She said she knew nothing in
the world about the gentlemen, except
that she was the maidservant. Where
they came from and where they went
to she knew nothing about. and 80
long as her wages were paid she cared
to know nothing else about them.
Major Brook pressed her to tell the
truth; he threatened her with death If
she did not tell; she persisted in as
serting her total ignorance of Mr.. Ellis
acts and movements, and of those of all
the other gentlemen At length the
major gave the word to hang her, and
she was dragged into the courtyard to
be executed. There was common cart
there. They tilted up the shafts and
fixed rope from the back band that
goes across the shafts. and while these
preparations were making for her execu-
tion the yeomen kept her standing
against the wall of the house, prodding
her with their bayonets in the arms
and shoulders, till she was covered all
over with blood Ia young woman then
of about twenty-six years of age). and
saying to her at every thrust of the
bayonet. "Will you confess now? VIII
you tell now where is Mr.. Ellis?" Her
constant answer was. Il have nothing
to tell; will tell nothing!"

Robert Emmet was defeated, as he
imagined, by accident. or ignorance, but
IL never occurred to him that he was be-
trayed. that every design of his was
frustrated. every project neutralized as
effectually as if traitor had stolen
sentinels, corrupted the guards. discov-
cred the plans, disconnected the project
and then left the adversary to be forced
into the field and discounted there.
In his own account of the disaster,
written il Kilmainham Jail, Emmett
thus describes some of the disappoint-
ments:
The man who was to turn the fuses
and rammers for the beams tfilled
with explosiyes) forgot them and went
off TO Kildare TO bring men, and did
not return TIL the next day. The con-
sequence was that all the beams were
not loaded, nor mounted with wheels
nor the train bags of course fastened
on to explode them.

The half was in their favor. When the
whistle blew the ball was on Colum-

of the two teams was as follows:

The rope was at length put about her

where the cart was converted into a
gallows; she was placed under it. and
the end OF the rope was passed over the

her for the last time, VIII you confess

You may murder me. you villains. but
not one word about him will you ever
get from me-" She had just time TO
say. THE Lord Jesus have mercy on
my soul" when tremendous shout was
raised by the yeomen; the rope was
pulled by all of them, except those who
held down the back part of the cart. and
in an instant she was suspended by the
neck.
After she had been suspended for two
or three minutes her feet touched the
ground. and savage yell of laughter
recalled her TO her senses. The rope
round her neck was taken off. and she
fell. She was lifted to a standing posi-
tion by bayonets thrust into her arm
