The radicals carried the day, and in
the last hours Of the meeting a procla-

to the people to refuse to pay taxes or
recruit the army or recognize the issue
of a government loan.

The descent of young Armstrong was
SO instantaneous that the man at arms
had no opportunity of carrying out his
threat or even of leveling the unwieldy
weapon in his own defense. The
horseman dropped on him as if he had

rang useless on the rough cobble-

sign of fright, as might have been
expected, but turned his intelligent
head and calmly watched the fray as
