Durham suppressed violent inclination
TO punch the mans head, but, knowing
what punishment awaited him. he walked
up the steps with a contemptuous smile.
Here was a change indeed from the meek
julius Of the old days. This presumed
heir was obnoxious and insOlent. thinking
he was absolutely certain Of entering into

him certain amount of satisfaction when
he thought Of the irony OF the situation.

4 Trip From St. Augustine Through
The Lake Region of FIorida-Hang
ing Spanish Moss.
A word more before leave the beau
tiful city of st. Augustine in Sum.
Florida, although the whole of oul
| visit was not made as a matter of fac
| in sunshine. We went into the ole
Cathedral with it's three bells ''all in
row." and one smaller bell hanging
above, one of these being the Oldest bel
in the United States. We also visited
three OF the principal churches in the
city-the pretty Episcopal, the unique
Methodist, and the beautiful Presby'
terrain church, the last memorial built
by Mr.. Flagler for his only daughter.
Fort Marion, one of the sights OF st.
Augustine is an old Spanish fort, de
serted, but kept in repair for visitors.
We climbed the famous stairway to the
ramparts where the view of bay, har-
Dor, town and ocean is so fine. l stood
In the sentinel towers on the four
corners of the Fort and almost imag-
med could see the enemy approaching.
To me the quaint old streets of the
town where most fascinating; there are
no sidewalks, and one has to hug the
walls in order not to be run over;
second story verandas are not uncom-
mon and one can easily shake hands
with his neighbor on the opposite YER
anda or balcony. One of the very Oldest
houses is built of cochina; natural
shell cOnglomerate, and has a gaDie
roof covered with moss, from which
has sprung a growth of bright green,
ten inches high.
at night it is an interesting sight to
6aunter through these narrow pictures
que streets, lined on each side with
shops, where the curiosity seeker could
find alligators stuffed in every size,
from the little ones, just coming out
of their shells, to the great big fellows
that made you shudder, they looked so
life-like. Hundreds of pretty things in
palmetto, shells, etc. were also exhibit
ed. All of this we saw In the rain and
mist-some of the time under an UNI
brella, at other times too interested to
remember that 1t rained.

hearts desire of seeing St Augustine
bathed In winter sun shine. Carriages
were being driven everywhere, side
walks were crowded, the hotel courts
and the plaza, and even the hotels
themselves looked so beautiful wished
/ might be a part of it all for a month.
We sat In the Casino, watching the
bathers in the large marble swimming
pool, and listening to the music by the
Marine Band. The scene was gay with
flags and banners Of all nations while
the crowd kept coming and going like
q kaleidoscope picture. After dinner we

of liberty. Already famous were the
pioneer scouts and warriors who en-
trenched themselves In that redoubt,
and yet more, famous and glorious be-
came their memory after the sanguin-
airy and unequal fight. Men were they,
heroes and intrepid characters, sur
rounded by a vast horde OF savage
Mexicans, with many an old score TO
settle; yet not one thought of surren-
der apparently entered their souls. The
last of them was killed by Mexican
bullets; but not until they had made
q fearful accounting among the swarm
ing hosts Of the enemy. The tragic
story of the Alamo will go down in
history as one of the greatest of
battles, and Texas and the Nation
owes a lasting debt of gratitude to the
woman who has saved its crumbling
walls and taMEets.
