A Rare noubIoon.


William d. Gebhard, a Schoharie
county New Yorker, holding a posi-.
tien in the United States sub-treas-
ury, owns gold coin which comes
very near having history 1t is a
Portuguese doubloon of about the
value of SIT, and is dated 1929. On
one side 1t is inscribed Tonnes W., ID.
G. Port. ct Alg Rex" around a wom-
ans head, and on the other is the
coat Of arms of Portugal. Its mint
age mark Is r., wherever that is. Its
milling, or booking, instead of being
of the modern design, is composed OF
a wreath, or chain, about the edge
of the coin. 1t is, so far as the wear
and tear of circulation are concerned,
as new as it was in the year of it's
BIRTH for in that year it came into
the hands Of John Gebhard, burgo-
master of Frankfort-on-the-M Main. and
for 176 years, six generations, it has
remained in the family. The sturdy
burgomaster bequeathed it to his
posterity with the proviso that it
should not be parted with except for
bread Thus far no Gebhard of that
family has needed bread sufficiently
to psrt with the heirloom.

OLD BOSTON DOLLHOUSE SOLD
One Of Many Relics Of Byaone Days
in Disuse Since 1858.

IN Dt0u6c otnCc 1000
For the paltry sum Of SIS the old
dollhouse, one OF the many relics Of
bygone days in the city Of Cambridge.
which, during its existence has held
probably many thousands Of dollars
has been sold. says the Boston Tran
script. The house stood for more than
a century at the Cambridge end Of the
West Boston bridge, but during the
last few years had been so badly in
need of repairs that 1t was more Of an
eyesore than a thing to be admired as
having been handed down by our fore
fathers.
The house had been in disuse since
1858, and from the appearance Of 1t at
the time OF its demolition one might
readily believe that no repairs had
been made upon it since that time. IL
is probable that, so great was the re-
joicing when the west Boston bridge
was made a free" bridge, there was
no place in the hearts OF Cambridge
citizens for sentiment, and none arose
in the hearts of their descendants to
prompt them to preserve the old land
mark. The toll house was first used
when the West Boston bridge. known
as the great bridge" was completed
ir 1793- No person was allowed to
pass over without first visiting the
dollhouse to pay the pittauce which
was demanded of him. In 1903 Noses
Hadley was made the toll collector,
and continued in that capacity until
1858, when the bridge was made
free bridge.

LIFE PARTNER OF PLAYWRIGHT
Little Girl Who Started Him Toward
Fame Shares Royalties.

Tdtne ondFca noydittC6.
Augustus Thomas, playwright
who enjoys very great and very well
deserved vogue at the present time.
invariably shares his royalties with
the person who first persuaded him to
take up his profession. says Munsey's
Magazine. Many years ago. in st.
Louis, while sitting on his knee, a lit
tie girl told Mr.. Thomas that she had
just read perfectly beautiful story
in st. Nicholas. Mr.. Thomas, very
much interested. asked her to lend
him the magazine. The story was Mrs.
Francis Hodgson Burnett's "Editha's
Burglar" Mr. Thomas dramatized it
-or, rather, he used the characters
of the little girl and the burglar, and
out Of the situation evolved a very
sweet and charming little play of his
own
When ''The Burglar" as he called it,
was put upon the stage, its success
was instantaneous. 1t proved the cor
nerstone of his artistic career, which
has since produced such fine comedies
as Alabama" I'm Mizzoura," "Ari-
zona," "The Earl of Pawtucket,@
Mrs. Lefhngwell's Boots" and The
Other Girl" OF course he has not
been wholly exempt from failure. The
prestige of Alabama" and ARIZONA"
did not save him when he went lit
tie farther down the list Of states and
wrote Colorado" but few play
wrights have been consistent in the
quality of their work.
The little girl who unconsciously
started him on the road to fame is
now Mrs. Augustus Thomas.
